UNMASKING THE CHARISMATIC HERESY "For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine but, following their own desires and insatiable curiosity, will accumulate teachers and will stop listening to the truth and will be diverted to myths" 2 Timothy 4:3-4 - "False messiahs and false prophets will arise and will perform signs and wonders in order to mislead, if that were possible, the elect" Mark 13: 22 - "The smoke of Satan has entered the Church" Pope Paul VI

HARD LUCK LIFE



In one way or another, even the "lucky ones" seem to suffer. Be it ill health, disappointments or even the normal process of aging and dieing serves us with constant reminders that life on this Earth is not the final goal of our existence.

St Paul repeatedly asked to be healed of his skin disease, but the Lord declined him. It probably kept him on the course. Without it who knows what would have become of Paul. When Fr Pio was once asked why he couldn’t secure healing for his nephew, he said that was because health would have endangered his eternal soul; he would have enjoyed life too much.

In one way or another, even the seemingly most successful people suffer. Those who do not, God’s providence have abandoned already, these are the incorrigible ones, whose names are not written in the Book of Life.

About Me

Canada
I am a recovering charismatic and a Catholic Orthodox; observing orthopraxis to the best of my ability. I acknowledge what the Church REALLY DOES TEACH; opposed to what some people erroneously say the Church teaches. “Catholic Orthodoxy” is proposed "to conform to the Catholic faith as taught by the Magisterium of the Church. So an "orthodox" person is one who is FAITHFUL to the teachings of the Church, whereas a "heterodox" person is somebody who rejects ANY Catholic dogma. Orthopraxis means "Performing the correct actions". Catholic Orthodoxy is defined by the Catechism: it tells us what we have to TO BELIEVE. Catholic Orthopraxis is denoted by the Code of Canon Law: it spells out what we have TO DO. Because “Truth is not determined by a majority vote" -- Pope Benedict XVI.
