• Obama at Prayer Breakfast: Jesus Would Want Us to Tax the Rich

  February 2, 2012 at 3:00pm

  If you invoke the name of Jesus, you should be sure that you understand Him. Jesus would want all to give according to their generosity. If it is a gov. mandate to surrender your income or suffer imprisonment, you are required to abide by the laws of man, not God’s law. This does not foster generosity but hinders it. A politician, if he wants to be God’s advocate should take a lesson from a Catholic priest, whom does not use strong arm tactics like fear of imprisonment, or expulsion from the Church as a means of creating a spirit of generosity. Rather, the church goer is compelled to give by his own free will, not only in the church but out side of it, by reflecting on God as revealed through Jesus Christ and his Holy Catholic priests whom dedicate their lives to proclaiming Him. No.., Jesus would not want us to play God’s role and demand more from those whom have more. He would ask that all people follow HIM, and it is by doing this, that we become generous and giving.

  Amen Father. Great response. We need the Holy Catholic Church. We need Catholic Priests whom devote their lives to learning, preaching, and living the Gospel. Thankyou for your service. Thanks to God for the physical structure of the Catholic Church, for the people whom worship there, and for a country with a constitutional gov. which allows that to happen without persecution.

• Nearly Half of Churchgoing Americans Say Church Doesn’t Have an Effect on Their Lives

  The impossibility of a figurative interpretation is brought home more forcibly by an analysis of the following text: “Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you. He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood, hath everlasting life: and I will raise him up in the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed: and my blood is drink indeed” (John 6:54-56). It is true that even among the Semites, and in Scripture itself, the phrase, “to eat some one’s flesh”, has a figurative meaning, namely, “to persecute, to bitterly hate some one”. If, then, the words of Jesus are to be taken figuratively, it would appear that Christ had promised to His enemies eternal life and a glorious resurrection in recompense for the injuries and persecutions directed against Him. The other phrase, “to drink some one’s blood”, in Scripture, especially, has no other figurative meaning than that of dire chastisement (cf. Isaiah 49:26; Apocalypse 16:6); but, in the present text, this interpretation is just as impossible here as in the phrase, “to eat some one’s flesh”. Consequently, eating and drinking are to be understood of the actual partaking of Christ in person, hence literally.

  This interpretation agrees perfectly with the conduct of the hearers and the attitude of Christ regarding their doubts and objections. Again, the murmuring of the Jews is the clearest evidence that they had understood the preceding words of Jesus literally (John 6:53). Yet far from repudiating this construction as a gross misunderstanding, Christ repeated them in a most solemn manner, in John (6:54 sqq.). In consequence, many of His Disciples were scandalized and said: “This saying is hard, and who can hear it?” (John 6:61); but instead of retracting what He had said, Christ rather reproached them for their want of faith, by alluding to His sublimer origin and His future Ascension into heaven. And without further ado He allowed these Disciples to go their way (John 6:62 sqq.). Finally He turned to His twelve Apostles with the question: “Will you also go away?

• Was This Image of Jesus Supernaturally Created During His Resurrection?

• Was This Image of Jesus Supernaturally Created During His Resurrection?

  ..but requires a minuscule investment of faith, which is only a small part of the gigantic faith that is needed to believe in the various conclusions of today’s science. The difference being that this micro-leap of faith would then require a macro-transformation of lifestyle which in the present perspective of many might seem unattractive. Yet the struggle would be worthwhile, because it is the result of a truth that is acknowledged on a personal level. It is a conclusion that is the result not only of what is seen on the outside by scientific observation, but what is seen inside the person when they take a stand for the Truth and live accordingly.
