    Excellent podcast. You are 100% correct the church needs to focus more on the interior journey instead of only focusing on externalities. Each soul has to be remedied, and that is an internal matter first and foremost. The Will and the Intellect are part of each soul. The more we can align our will and intellect to God's way, then the externalities will be aligned as well. Thanks Robert

    Absolutely, unity with Jesus is the true path the church should be following and encouraging the people of God follow. This is the pathway that leads to the salvation of souls. As you say, the problem is, the Shepherds have put unity with God aside in favour of unity with people.
    My experience of sharing my own journey of unity with Christ with Shepherds is silence, no interest. Polite listening is the best you can expect.
    I would dearly love the oportunity to share my own and other peoples experiences of their journey of unity with God, in the context of the parish community. The benfits to everyones faith journey would be immeasurable.
    Returing to the list you read from, the poor are us who are deprived of the riches of being a living community of faith, that sharing with each other our unity with Chirst would bring. I am sure our personal faith experiences would be complimentary, serving to bond our parish faith community together as family.
    As you point out, the gospel of institutional cohesion, new ways of sharing positions in power structures the synodal pathway is driving along without the goal of the salvation of souls, is meaningless.

    @kathleenlawler1870 7 месяцев назад +2

    Yeah, but it's like the rules of Fight Club, you never talk about Fight Club. Talking about one's own experiences in prayer is seen as inappropriate in Catholic circles, and the Catholic Church has never emphasised personal experience as the basis for belief. Rather it's an intellectual assent to a series of dogmas of the Faith. People are counselled regularly to ignore their personal experiences, or keep them secret until a priest or superior orders them to share.

    Robert, I agree with most of what you say, BUT surely we can trust a woman to act responsibly as a deacon. An Orthodox church in Sydney Australia impressed me greatly by the humble, useful role played there by women deacons, taking part in singing the liturgy (3 hours long). They are surely walking close to the Virgin Mary. I believe a woman's perspective complements the male. A priest's burden is heavy. Perhaps a woman can do more than clean and serve tea and biscuits, but as a female give advice, scold and comfort!

  • @aseeker2109
    @aseeker2109 7 месяцев назад

    Outside of the gift of faith in Baptism, the ones who not experience unity with God speak of faith as some kind of blind brave belief, which is akin to stoicism. However, faith is an action of God in the soul and intelect which St Paul states in his letter to his fellow Jews in Heb 11:1,
    "Faith is the assurance of things hoped for the conviction of things unseen."
    It is only God who can underwrite the assurance of things we hope for when we first belive. Faith is God uniting Himself within our souls and informing our intelect. Faith is the basis of our unity with God. Jesus said that if we love Him we shall keep His commandments and God will reveal Himself to us. This is a revelation of faith and this is an experience of unity with God. The gift of faith is the assurance that God is real and it comes in many and diverse packages. Unfortunately, as you say Robert, few Shepherds know this as a lived experience. It goes someway to explain why our Shepherds are now leading the people of God astray, and appear to be like wolves in sheeps clothing.
    For the Church and the salvation of souls .. ❤🙏🙏🙏❤️

      I'm an ex Anglican (protestant). Sola scriptorum produced hundreds of sects, none of whom could agree with one another. All of them emphasised some bits of scripture, while suppressing others. The problem is that the scripture is a narrative (or set of narratives) of the spiritual journey, it isn't a how to manual. It assumes knowledge is already present (look at the beginning of Luke's gospel), and seeks to enlighten and illustrate.

    It is not for you to make this proclamation. Bankrupt are all who no longer respect the authority of the Church. God establishes authority, offices, and puts people in them. It is sin to grumble, complain, and question God’s action. It is for us to mind our own office well, and we are not, if we are looking at others. God allows the trials and difficulties in the Church for our own personal mortification, so we will fast and pray, surrendering everything to God until we find peace. God alone directs the life of the Church in the pattern of Christ. The Passion is an essential part. Those who want to “protect” the Church (God’s office) risk falling into Peter’s error (“Get behind me satan!”) and playing the role of the Pharisees. To go outside of one’s office is to lose everything. To be disobedient is to lose everything.

      Unfortunately there has been a covert - some might say overt - attempt to change dogma and doctrine since 1970 from within the Church. Concepts such as Gradualism have gained significant traction because prominent cardinals and bishops sponsored such traction. Would Pope Pius X for example ever comment that he hoped that Hell is empty? Or would he try to suggest that souls get obliterated? The fact that issues such as these are even uttered suggests that those duty bound to defend dogma and doctrine cannot do so or won't do so.
