The Fundamental Duty of Man

DVRodriguez2020-11-13T21:49:50-05:00

Christ is present and lives in the Most Holy Eucharist. Under the impulse of His divine Love, He ceaselessly renews His Sacrifice. This Sacrament is the very soul of the Church. From this source the Church draws and has all her strength. From the rising to the setting of the sun, there should be no cessation of the Hymn of Praise and Thanksgiving [the Mass] which man owes to God. Indeed, man's chief duty and supreme dignity is to participate in the Eucharistic sacrifice. This is all Catholic teaching from the popes. Listen to it with faith, begging our Lord to [...]

Saying No to Undo the Yes

As many times as we have said YES to temptation, to doing something not in the law of true liberty established by God, we have to undo it later with a NO, perhaps even fourfold times. Habitual sin, evil behavior, proximity to temptation and vice all have to be undone by their virtuous opposites. Each sin is like loading a crate onto a heavy truck. The more a truck weighs, the harder it is to bring it to a stop and reverse direction. All the times we spoke ill of another, drank too much, took a second look... God will allow [...]

Concerning Mary Never Enough

De Maria numquam satis. Your can never praise, honor, love, exalt or serve Mary enough. You can never sing enough Marian hymns or recite enough of her chaplets, prayers, and litanies, or put enough flowers before her statues and icons. As De Montfort states: all the external glory which Heaven and earth vie with each other to give her is nothing compared to what she has received interiorly from her Creator. In other words, the Almighty has done great things for her; therefore, we should not be hesitant or ashamed to do anything and everything for her and for her honor.

Widows and Orphans

svfonline2019-06-01T05:09:12-04:00

Our society has been attacked by a great enemy - Feminism. We have suffered the loss of our husbands and fathers and become a society of widows and orphans (in biblical terms, that denotes those who are in great tribulation, suffering and need). Feminism, created in the 1800s, seeks to eliminate patriarchy and masculine vocations. It wages its war in two ways: [1] by masculinizing women and [2] by feminizing men. We must get over the lie that feminism can ever be good -- it only has rotten fruit. How to resolve this? [1] Reject the evil and purge ourselves from [...]
