GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS WORD
1)-GOD NEVER RENOUNCES HIS SOVEREIGNTY
OVER HIS CREATURES. WHAT GOD SAYS, GOD DOES IT.
Because
God is faithful to his word, cunnings from his creatures to manipulate God’s
words remain unsuccessful. May we consider
gay marriages and civil laws against God and the respect to the
human person.
As professor of the Holy Scriptures, I
must teach without prejudice divine revelation concerning the road to eternal life. Pope Francis reminds us not to use Divine
Revelation in a cafeteria style! We must
believe and teach all the doctrine revealed.
Benedict xvi in his book : GOD IS NEAR US, teaches us
how someone elects to go to heaven or condemns his or herself to eternal damnation. He gives us the example of Judas. Judas
knew Jesus well, he was an eye
witness to his miracles, he listened to his teachings and probably asked him many
questions about his doctrine. . In all
and all, he lived with Jesus. He was one
of the twelve chosen by Jesus to live an intimate life with the Lord. However, he sold Jesus just for the sake of
money and lust. According to the
exegetes, the aaronic priests of the temple paid Judas an enormous sum of money
to obtain his betraying Jesus to them.
2)-POPE
BENEDICT XVI TEACHES THAT IT IS NOT WHAT WE THINK, NOR WHAT WE DESIRE,
NOR WHAT WE SAY THAT PUTS US IN HEAVEN OR CONDEMNS US TO EVERLASTING DAMNATION.
Where we are going to spend our eternity
is determined by our choices. The
Holy Father uses the example of Judas.
Judas, in his relationship with Jesus,
did not choose Jesus, but he chose
to fulfill his disorderly passions.
He continued to talk about Jesus like one of the twelve apostles whose
friendship grows in “sincere love” for Jesus.
Apparently the other eleven never
doubted Judas had chosen to live
his disorderly passions to fulfillment
without even thinking about it.
This specific drama is fulfilled constantly in the church down through
the centuries. How many bishops,
legitimate successors of the apostles, choose to satisfy their disorderly passions instead of choosing Jesus and
fulfilling their priestly consecrations in holiness.
3)-JUDAS CRYSTALLIZED HIS ETERNITY
THROUGH HIS CHOICES.
He chose his passion for money and his
concupiscence for sexual pleasures. In
the last moments of his life, he
probably never thought his betraying Jesus would turn out to Jesus crucifixion. Faced-up with the gravity of his sin, he
lost all hope and trust in the divine
mercy of God. His last choice made in
despair took his life and separated him for all eternity from Jesus. Judas is the first bishop of the catholic
church condemned to everlasting sufferings in hell “without knowing it.” Satan sees Judas as a ferocious enemy in his
hell , because satan was condemned to hell for refusing to worship Jesus in the
crib in the mystery of Incarnation.
Therefore, the sufferings of
Judas in hell, because of his three priestly consecrations, into the priestly powers of Christ, are much more intense in his damned soul than
the sufferings in hell of a pagan. Jesus himself consecrated Judas into his priestly powers as “worshiper”
in his baptism, also he consecrated
Judas as “prophet” in his confirmation,
and he consecrated Judas as “sacrificator” in his priestly ordination on the night of
the Last Supper. We must always
remember that Jesus himself administers all the seven sacraments he instituted in each one of
us. The ordained priest is an instrument
in the hand of Jesus, a very needed instrument, however just an instrument. The sacraments do not belong to the ordained
priest, they all belong to Jesus. He is
the one who died for us on the cross, and he is the only one to offer us the
means of salvation in the sacraments.
4)-THE GAY MARRIAGES OR HOMOSEXUAL
UNIONS VERSUS DIVINE REVELATION:
Whoever chooses to “marry” with another
person of the same sex, man with a man, and a woman with a woman, chooses to
live a life prohibited by God
himself. We must respect people making
such a choice. Jesus respected Judas’
choice. No more also may we say that
such persons are going to hell, because no one knows the relation of friendship
or hatred God maintains with such people.
However, divine revelation condemns such
choices, as saint Paul reveals in his letter to the Romans:
“ever
since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes of eternal power and
divinity have been able to be understood and perceived in what he has
made. As a result, they have no excuse;
for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or give him
thanks. Instead, they became vain in
their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened. While claiming to be wise they became fools
and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for the likeness of an image of
mortal man or of birds or of four-legged animals or of snakes. Therefore, God handed them over to impurity
through the lusts of their hearts for the mutual degradation of their
bodies. They exchanged the truth of God
for a lie and revered and worshiped the creature rather than the creator, who
is blessed forever. Amen.
Therefore,
God handed them over to degrading passions.
their female exchanged natural relations for unnatural, and the males
likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one
another males did shameful things
with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their
perversity. And since they did not
see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to
do what is improper. They are filled
with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy murder,
rivalry treachery, and spite. They are
gossips and scandalmongers and they hate God.
They are insolent, haughty, boastful, ingenious in their wickedness, and
rebellious toward their parents. They
are senseless, faithless, heartless, and ruthless. Although they know the just decree of God
that all who practice such things deserve death, they not only do them
but give approval to those who practice them.”
(Rom 1:20-32)
In his first letter to the Corinthians,
saint Paul reveals that we should not deceive ourselves: “do not
be deceived; neither fornicators nor idolaters nor adulterers nor boy
prostitutes nor sodomites nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor
slanderers nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of god.” (ICor
6:9)
5)-BLESSED JOHN PAUL II
IN THE REDEMPTOR OF MAN
In the words of Juan Pablo ii:
“the God of
creation is revealed as the God of redemption, as the God who is "faithful
to himself, and faithful to his love for man and the world, which he revealed
on the day of creation.
His is a love
that does not draw back before anything that justice requires in him.
THE REDEMPTOR OF
MAN #9
You
have laid down your precepts to be
faithfully
kept. May my footsteps be firm
in
keeping your commands
(Psalm 118:4-5).
If you live according to my
teachings, you will truly be
my
disciples and the truth will set you
free
(Jn
8:31-32).
Therefore
we respect the persons who choose to
enter into a union or marrying with someone of the same sex. Jesus respects Judas’ choosing his greed and
his concupiscence. We do not judge them. We know that God condemns their choice. We preach and teach God’s word. When God mandates us to obey his
commandments, we listen and we obey,
because what God says is what God does.
The last hour comes to each one of us; human laws proclaimed against God’s
laws cause many to lose their soul for eternity.
“God will
judge us according to the doctrine of Jesus
as revealed in divine revelation”.
(Rom
2:16)
May
the good Lord bless you richly in your enthusiasm to learn Jesus teachings to
work your salvation. The professor.
