What is transubstantiation? Why is the Catholic church becoming an apostasy?
Ever since the covid-19 pandemic, in 2020 onward, the Roman Catholic church in New York has restricted the eucharist from the body of believers, so that there is ONLY the breaking of break, and no wine or forgiveness.
You will receive NO PEACE from breaking Jesus’ body. It is actually the BLOOD of the Lamb that is integral for forgiveness.
Jesus said in Matthew 26:26-28 26 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”
27 Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
THIS is why the belief that the bread and wine are LITERALLY Jesus’ flesh and blood. So, if you do not drink Jesus’ blood, and eat his flesh… 1 Corinthians 11:28-30 says… 28 Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup. 29 For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves. 30 That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.
This is the apostasy. They did not examine themselves; the mass has been breaking his body but not seeking forgiveness. I believe this is the same thing as taking his blood “unworthily.” The Church has fallen asleep. The priests are weak, the elderly sick. Whether from Covid-19 or the vaccines, or from communion, we do not know. However, we need all the help we can get right now considering the health of our people. Their excuse is NOT ADEQUATE. The priests make the claim that their “Catechism” says that the priest may take communion for the whole congregation. This is fine for back before we could manufacture tiny cups for each person, like the protestant churches do. We do NOT need to SHARE the same cups!
Give up your tradition already. You are CLEARLY in the wrong. It says ““Drink from it, all of you.”- how hard is that to understand?
So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! 13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
If this were true, why do people commit suicide?
Satan is alive and well. Judas Iscariot went down the road of destruction by betraying Jesus and then killing himself. If he had NOT killed himself, he too would have been forgiven by Jesus. However, he didn’t believe in grace, and he committed suicide.
What is grace?
The word “grace” is used 37 times in the Old Testament, and over 150 times in the New Testament. What is the difference?
The Hebrew word for “grace” is “chen”, pronounced “khane.” Parts of Speech: Noun, Masculine
favour, acceptance
favour, grace, charm
2. favour, grace, elegance
The Greek word for “grace” is “charis.”, pronounced, “khar’-ece.” Parts of Speech: Noun, Feminine
grace
that which affords joy, pleasure, delight, sweetness, charm, loveliness: grace of speech
good will, loving-kindness, favour
of the merciful kindness by which God, exerting his holy influence upon souls, turns them to Christ, keeps, strengthens, increases them in Christian faith, knowledge, affection, and kindles them to the exercise of the Christian virtues
what is due to grace
the spiritual condition of one governed by the power of divine grace
The idea of being “saved by grace” does NOT appear anywhere in the Hebrew manuscripts. The Greek word charis is packed with meaning in the New Testament. Charis can be succinctly defined as in “the unmerited favor of God.” Of the approximate 150 occurrences of charis, the vast majority appear in the letters of the apostle Paul.
If Saul (St. Paul) murdered Christians of the early church, why did he go to Heaven and NOT Judas Iscariot?
First of all, Judas took the money that the Pharisee’s paid him to betray Jesus, and he threw it at their feet because he realized his sin.
You CANNOT pay money for the gift of forgiveness, nor for the gift of the Holy Spirit. Grace is a gift for those who believe in him. If someone gives you a brand-new Porsche, and you try to pay him $100 for it… don’t you think that’s a little insulting? That’s the whole idea behind unmerited favor of God.
Acts 8:18-21
18 When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money 19 and said, “Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 Peter answered: “May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money! 21 You have no part or share in this ministry, because your heart is not right before God.
2 Corinthians 12:7-8
6 Even if I should choose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say, 7 or because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.
Judas Iscariot was likewise tormented, however he had NO FAITH! If he had believed in forgiveness that Jesus kept preaching about, he would have been “saved by grace through faith.”
When I was 15 years old, I met God. This was after I sacrificed my life for my friend who was being assaulted by her upperclassman boyfriend. However, while in purgatory, Jesus resurrected me from the dead and made me who I am today. I’ve had many trials and tribulations, but I never stopped believing. In 2005 when my car ran out of gasoline in the middle of winter out on a rural road at night, I had realized I had gone as far as I could go. So, I tried committing suicide by leaping head-first in front of a car going about 50 mph. My head hit the driver side mirror, knocking it off… spinning me around, falling on the pavement.
I got within inches of my death, with just a scratch behind my ear, (so I knew it was real), but I survived. Not everyone is that lucky. Do NOT tempt God.
Matthew 4:6-8 6 “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:
“‘He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”
7 Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor.
10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’”
11 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.
What is an idol? An idol could be anything from money to lust to knowledge.
It teaches in 1 Corinthians 8:1 that “concerning food sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge makes one conceited, but love edifies people.
Therefore, concerning the eating of food sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing at all in the world, and that there is no God but one.
But if anyone says to you, “This is meat sacrificed to idols,” do not eat it, for the sake of that one who informed you and for the sake of conscience;”
We are taught some limits concerning the rights of a believer. We may eat of any animal regardless if it is Kosher or not.
However, we are not to drink the life blood of the animal, or food polluted by idols.
If you ever suspect your food has been tampered with, simply say the name of the Father over it, and it will be blessed.
However, if you do not pronounce the name of Allah over your food, you will surely be condemned for eating food polluted by idols.
“He has only forbidden you dead meat, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and any (food) over which the name of other than Allah has been invoked. But if one is forced by necessity, without wilful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- then Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Mild drinks have long been banned in the Church of Latter Day Saints. According to their doctrine, beer and tea or coffee go against “The Word of Wisdom.”
“The Lord revealed in the Word of Wisdom that the following substances are harmful:
Tea and coffee (see Doctrine and Covenants 89:9; latter-day prophets have taught that the term “hot drinks,” as written in this verse, refers to tea and coffee).”
Are mild drinks really that harmful?
First of all, the term “hot drinks” refers only to tea or coffee that is HOT! It also applies to HOT chocolate.
“What gave rise to the idea that hot drinks could increase esophageal cancer risk?
The theory has been that hot liquids such as coffee or tea could destroy the inner lining of the esophagus, requiring the cells to continually regenerate. During this process, there is a greater chance that something can go wrong and turn normal cells into cancer cells.”
Furthermore, coffee has generally been recognized as a natural anti-depressant. And tea has so many benefits such as antioxidants or amino acids like L-Theanine. This compound is a powerful stress reducer. It blocks cortisol and helps to focus the mind’s attention.
Hot liquids may be harmful to your throat. Yes, however when iced there is NO reason NOT to drink it. Although tea and coffee have caffeine in them, so does Pepsi, and LDS permits their members to drink Pepsi, or even energy drinks.
What About Alcohol?
Liquor has long been associated with liver disease. But what about wine or beer? Moderate intake of wine has actually been shown to be beneficial due to the riboflavin in grapes. However, even wine has a higher alcohol content than beer. So, beer must be the least harmful of all popular alcoholic drinks.
Therefore, beer is considered a “mild drink” in many parts of Europe. It is common in Germany to have a beer at lunch. Many workplaces even have beer vending machines.
Having a few beers is not going to cause liver disease. However, it will help you relax and enjoy life…
Findings Suggest Caffeine May Reduce Parkinson’s Risk by 40 Percent
“Your morning cup of joe may be doing more than just giving you an energy boost to tackle the day. New evidence suggests that the caffeine in your brew could pack an extra punch by reducing your risk of developing Parkinson’s disease.”
“The neuroprotective effects were exposure-dependent, with the highest consumption group having nearly 40 percent lower Parkinson’s risk compared to non-coffee drinkers.”
All too often, it seems that Americans commercialize Christmas more than any other society on Earth.
I tried looking up some Jars of Clay songs for Christmas, to put in my playlist. First, I started on YouTube, which told me that only 2 out of 12 songs would be played unless I disabled my Ad Blocker. So, I disabled it and was immediately bombarded by advertisements for everything from a portable tire inflation device to pet food commercials.
YouTube purposefully put these advertisements in for Christmas it seems, as they have a new policy on ad blockers now suddenly.
Truth be told, I invented YouTube in 1998.
So, I’m not too happy about it going completely commercial with their advertisements or YouTube red. I understand they need to pay royalties, however YT survived for many years without advertising, why is it so necessary now???
Back in 1998 I launched an adult media group. I was 15 years old, running websites out of my mom’s basement.
The first year I made $6,500. The second year I made $21,000. The third year I again made at least $5,000.
So, I was no chump. I knew the power of online streaming video! I figured if we could get a database of videos, that anyone could add to, and have them streaming through the browser, it would be revolutionary. And it was.
Anyways, enough ranting. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
P.S. I don’t know who else saw This, but I thought it was very provocative. There should be peace in Palestine right now, but because of the hatred in this world, there now is no celebration of Christmas this year in Bethlehem. Instead, there is Rubble and Barbed Wire. I urge you all to pray for peace in the middle east this Christmas. Also, for peace in Ukraine and Russia, as it seems like that war may be winding down… we ask our Lord, the Prince of Peace to intervene and help negotiate a peace treaty.
Allah is the creator, the Father of our Father Abraham, is “God of the Worlds.”
Who is Allah?
Allah is repeatedly described as all-merciful and all-powerful.
He represents the Father that Jesus portrayed.
All of the miracles that Jesus did were to glory the Father.
Even Jesus confessed that Allah was much greater than He.
What does this mean?
God took up humanity to bring into Heaven. He placed Man above the Angelic hosts of hosts.
Who is the Child that leads the Lion to lay with The Lamb, but Jesus himself. When God, Jesus, took up humanity, he did it in humility.
You are NOT Jesus. Someday, maybe you’ll be able to walk through walls. But for now, you cannot. This is part of the revelation that Islam imposes on Christianity, to learn their limits. You cannot fly. You jump from the airplane, you will plummet with or without a parachute.
This is fact. Science. Law.
If you’re the type of believer that goes around calling herself a princess of Jesus and that you’re also married to Jesus, does that mean Jesus married his daughter?
As in the story of Joseph… his wife left him, and went after men who promised prosperity. However even after she was left by all these “great” men, it was Joseph who rescued her from off the streets. He was not lured into seduction from a strange woman, no… he took back his own wife!
A strange woman is idolatrous, a goddess, and a heathen
A strange woman is adulterous, a seducer, and sexual pervert.
A strange woman has idolatrous family background.
A strange woman has loose morals, she may look outwardly beautiful, but her heart is full of seduction, her smiles are deceitful and her thoughts are wicked.
A strange woman is full of evil, greedy, a traitor and deadly
A strange woman is full of deceit. She pretends to love her husband, but she is actually conspiring with his enemies for his destruction
Today I simply stepped outside for a moment and was immediately immersed in wildlife, from a young squirrel running from branch to branch tree to tree, to a couple of rabbits hopping around! Let’s take some time to read the Gospel or about the “Good News,” remember, Jesus died for us all, no matter how bad you might think you are, you are forgiven by God incarnate-Jesus Christ, or “God is with us!”-Immanuel.
It’s also my firm believe that about 95% of United States Protestant and Catholic Churches are “decaying with antiquity.” This means it’s primarily owned and ran by the oldest generation of believers, the elders of the Church… While that’s great for them, is it for us Millennials?
As part of the class of 2000, the first Millennials… I suggest that if Gregorian Chants are not used for the liturgy, contemporary musicians should be used for worship. I’ve been to Churches who had worship teams who knew some Jars of Clay songs… it was beautiful! Why not invite some of these Christian Rock Bands to your Churches? Why only sing age old hymns, that our generation doesn’t connect with? Why not play Christian Rock music? There’s a Christian radio station called “The Effect.” They have modern Christian Rock music playing 24/7/365 online at www.effectradio.com
With an infusion of vinyasa yoga with transcendental meditation and loving kindness, it is my vision to give the kind of care and compassion the world needs to heal, turn, and seek Jesus.
