It’s a long story that i

Please pray for protection from that. Thank you.

Saint Caecilia’s Heavenly Music - Catholic Insight

We have to wait to hear what heavenly music sounds like, but Saint Francis de Sales once recounted that he was blessed to hear an angel played one note on a violin – of what material it was made we may only surmise – and said it was the most beautiful sound he could remember.

For what it is worth, my (deceased) Presbyterian minister turned up one night in a very brief vision some time after I'd become Catholic and said "The Catholic Church is closest to the truth", with a distinct emphasis on the word "closest".

We had discussed Catholic / Protestant church differences when he was still alive. At the time he was becoming fed up with Protesant divisions.

Note that he did not say "has all the truth". He distinctly said "... closest ....

For what it is worth. Private revelation obviously.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY, Calif. (KTLA) — A California man who reportedly works as a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent is accused of illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week.

The Nov. 10 incident, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, played out at around 10:30 pm outside a home in Temecula.

Attorney Greg Kirakosian, who represents the boy and his family, told Nexstar’s KTLA that the 17-year-old was driving home after dropping a friend off down the street when he saw the suspect, identified by investigators as Gerardo Rodriguez, pointing a gun at his vehicle and demanding he pull over.

“In the moment, I think he was just scared for his life. He had a gun pulled on him, and he was told to immediately stop or else,” Kirakosian explained, referring to the teen. “Then that same person came up to his driver’s side door and pulled him out at gunpoint.”

Someone not in police uniform pulling a gun on a driver at night sounds like a carjacking. Perhaps the driver should have kept going.

Also - "Gerardo Rodriguez"? Sounds foreign. Better put him in a camp until we establish his immigration status.

Brother Del said:
If you insist on equating a love and reverence for God and His Holy Word as hatred for ones neighbor, by all means, carry on.

Just looking at what is actually being done to the neighbors by the positions Del. Nothing personal. It's just how you happen to see it, but that doesn't mean it adds up

Brother Del said:
You seem to freely pick and choose whatever words suit your narrative at any given time, so I see no point in discussing this topic any further.

My observations are pretty simple in this regards:

Love neighbors does not equate to promoting them to be burned alive forever for not believing like you.

I'd be embarrassed to try to pin my so called faith in that when faith supposedly works through love and love neighbors

Burning people alive forever is NOT done by faith

Brother Del said:
As I previously stated, God will do as He pleases.

Fortunately God is quite a bit better than the sum of us

And all that you quote ANY verse is correct but not ALL is for us. !!

Every Word of God is for everyone Dan, Matt. 4:4, Luke 4:4, Deut. 8:3

I'm sure if you spent decades thinking otherwise you wouldn't get it

You appear to be fixated on an aspect or 2 for some odd reason which usually happens when believers try to justify themselves for exercising certain activities stipulated in the scriptures

Better to start at saved by unmerited Divine Mercy and Grace and leave it at that

Day 5... 11/22/25

O Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of Our Lord Jesus and our Mother, penetrated with the most lively confidence in your all-powerful and never-failing intercession, manifested so often through the Miraculous Medal, we your loving and trustful children implore you to obtain for us the graces and favors we ask during this Novena, if they be beneficial to our immortal souls, and the souls for whom we pray.

(Privately form your petitions here.)

You know, O Mary, how often our souls have been the sanctuaries of your Son who hates iniquity. Obtain for us, then, a deep hatred of sin and that purity of heart, which will attach us to God alone so that our every thought word and deed may tend to his greater glory. Obtain for us also a spirit of prayer and self-denial, that we may recover by penance what we have lost by sin, and at length attain to that blessed abode where you are the Queen of angels and of men. Amen.

Christ the King

2 Samuel 5:1-3

The tribes of Israel said to David: "The Lord said to you (David): 'You shall shepherd my people Israel; you shall be ruler over Israel.'"

It is marvelous when the Lord speaks to our hearts.

The tribes of Israel came to David and reminded him of what the Lord had said.

Then they anointed him king.

Colossians 1:12-20

"Giving thanks to the Father, who has made you fit to share in the inheritance of the holy ones in light."

Thank you, Lord, for loving us; we praise you, Alleluia. Thank you for your love that passes into my heart to the hearts of my family, my friends, and humanity.

Luke 23:35-43 (White)

Jesus is the king who lives in the kingdom, the Heart of God, and he reigns at this moment.

The thief says of Jesus: "This man has done nothing criminal."

This short sentence is crucial: He who keeps himself away from evil is in God.

Jesus says to the thief: "Today you will be with me in Paradise." In the present tense: "You are with me in Paradise."

At this moment, we are with God in Paradise. It depends on us to know this and to remain in God's joy.

Steve, keep strumming and keep looking up—those country-night skies are a cathedral without walls.

That is a great song line my friend. Your a song writer lol. "those country-night skies are a cathedral without walls" paints a great picture.

Every chord you chase and every star you catch is an echo of the same vastness: we can’t bottle God, but we can let art and night-air carry our wonder back to Him.

Yes so true. Your inspiring me now lol. My mum and step dad use to live in the country not far from the Warrumbungle National Park
where the space observatory was. So this location was ideal for having a clear uninterupted view of the night sky.

I use to lay on my back and watch shooting stars going off everywhere across my field of vision. You could actually see the distant spiral of the milky way. This alone was something that had Gods fingerprints all over it and stayed with me.

Now putting the chords to that is not so simple lol. But we can capture some of it and your words above did just that for me or any one I reckon. But also the music has to flow with the vision or experience as well.

Press on—your next note might be the one that helps someone else hear the “something beyond.”

Yes I think this is the key (pardon the pun). Sharing helps because sharing ideas and inspirations makes it real and alive and it can then grow into something.

I'm apostolic but I can't find a counselor that shares my faith. I really need counseling.
I feel like no one gets it.

Start by praying that God bring someone into your life who can lead you to or through what you need to be resolved. If they can't, they may know the one who can.

This happened to me actually, in 2013 or so.. The start of answered prayer started 3 days later .

Call a man a Nazi long enough and people start believing it.

Don't put words in my mouth. I said fascistic. Trump referred to himself as a fascist yesterday when Mamdani was in his office.

Trump even let Mamdani answer a question about whether the mayor-elect thought the president was a "fascist".

"That's ok, you can just say yes," Trump interjected, giving Mamdani a light tap on the arm and smiling. "It's easier than explaining."

It was likely in jest. But for a US president to be joking about something like that, big oof.

chevyontheriver said:
You predicted Trump family flees to Russia. You mean you think he won't?

That was a joke riffing on your failed prediction about Biden being out of office 4.5 years ago.

I'll give you one you can cook me on because it's probably not going to happen. Or at least I really hope this won't happen.

"GOP introduces bill to retroactively lower the age of consent to 14".

Seeing as how MAGA has been trying to normalize sex with 15-year-olds.

At first I though its about the work I have now. But originally the dream was literally about something coming from space.

The female AI humanoid in my dream told me about the importance of those dates especially about July 7. I already told about this date in my dream around March (see link below)

Or I could have misread her very human-like handwriting and it could have been July 1 !! The same day 3I/Atlas comet was discovered!

I felt the urgency in her tone but she also sounded positive. She was very cryptic in her communication as if whatever is arriving cannot be revealed to anyone, yet it is very important to me like a gift or a package that is meant only for me. I don't know. It's all very strange.

Something huge also happened to me at my end last July 1. It wasn't just the job. I can't tell about it anymore. One thing for sure, it's not about money, I'm still poor!

fulfilled July 7 dream!

It did have something to do with outer space but only concerned me I think. I got a job around that date! And not just a job. It was a good job in a good company! And guess what!!?? Their products looked exactly like spacecraft (rocket) engines!! In this way, it did have something to do...

Details I left out originally - the object will originate from beyond the Solar System.

I'm supposed to rendezvous with it but as of now, I have absolutely no means of reaching whatever is out there and I have to be there physically (in fact, nobody have the means to send a man in deep space as of yet unless it's a one-way death trip!). In fact, the female AI told me precise coordinates in space. I did not write it down and ultimately forgot the coordinates!! :doh:

Trump Ambassador Mike Huckabee Held Secret Meeting With Traitor Who Sold American Secrets to Israel
President Donald Trump’s ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, held a secret meeting in July with traitor Jonathan Pollard, who served 30 years in prison for selling American secrets to Israel.

According to a report from the New York Times, Pollard met with Huckabee at the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem in July for a discussion that was “kept off Mr. Huckabee’s official schedule,” and revealed for the first time on Thursday.

Pollard confirmed the rendezvous in an interview with the Times, telling the newspaper “it was a friendly meeting” and that “a lot of things that came up in conversation.”

Three unnamed officials told the New York Times that the meeting “alarmed the Central Intelligence Agency’s station chief in Israel.” The White House was also reportedly unaware that the secret meeting was taking place.

(Spies usually have to work a little harder to get inside one of our embassies.)

Pollard was released from prison in 2015 and moved to Israel in 2020 – flying on a private jet owned by top Trump donor Sheldon Adelson to Tel Aviv, where he was given a hero’s welcome by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In 2021, Trump pardoned Aviem Sella, the Israeli handler who recruited Pollard to spy on the United States.

Well, that’s a thing.

It's almost amusing. You don't even attempt to perform the due diglence required in order to find out the truth for yourself, and then still endeavor to take the moral high ground like some kind of priggish Pharisee, while accusing me of your own fault.

Again, Insitutes is theology, systematic theology, and 2 Thess 1:8-10 specifically states, over and against your position, that those in hell will be "shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed."

Oh well, this discussion has descended into one of those rare moments when I'll express my distaste with the ignore button.

That's fine, you're welcome to hit the panic button. But it shows you can't defend your denomination's version of the gospel.
I have never expressed my private opinion about any doctrine, all I have done is defend the gospel of the Lord Jesus and it seems to have offended you.

Christ is a jealous God and
When we put Him in the backburner
He knows as we do know
It is not an excuse and that
Things go awry but when we
Place Christ in our lives all the time
Every single time He will lead us
In the thing that is conceived and
Created by Him known as life
Always put Him first and foremost 24/7!!
