In any event, we are fortunate to have Amateur Brain Surgeon, who has, generously and graciously, taken on the happy duty of trying to complete Raider Fan's captious claims that, once, were mundane in the Catholic Weltanschauung but have since been dissolved in the Sea of Ecumenical madness and so we would all do well to bear in mind Raider Fan's atavistic aphorism; Ecumenism is the Universal Solvent of Tradition.
Thank you, ABE Ministry; today, ABS will simply post some passages from Holy Writ (they are in all of the better bibles) but Catholic man will not hear them referenced or commented upon by the Prelature for they have taken the decision to speak only of God's Blessings of the Covenants as they pertain to the Jews while they routinely refuse to speak about the Curses that were promised by God to fall upon the Messias-Deniers.
Back in the Piemonte region of Vermont, the old timers called such an approach to truth, half-assed.
Let's simply let the Bible Speak (see, ABS can get all ecumenical sounding too)
| Baruch
1:20 And many evils have cleaved to us, and the curses which the Lord foretold by Moses his servant: who brought our fathers out of the land of Egypt, to give us a land flowing with milk and honey, as at this day. |
Deuteronomy 28:15 But if thou wilt not hear the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep and to do all his commandments and ceremonies ceremonies, which I command thee this day, all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee. Deuteronomy 28:45 And all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue and overtake thee, till thou perish: because thou heardst not the voice of the Lord thy God, and didst not keep his commandments and ceremonies which he commanded thee. |
| Deuteronomy 28 Because you did not serve the Lord your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things, therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the Lord will send against you, in hunger and thirst, in nakedness, and lacking everything. And he will put a yoke of iron on your neck until he has destroyed you. Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. |
| Malachias
(Malachi) 2:2 If you will not hear, and if you will not lay it to heart, to give glory to my name, saith the Lord of hosts: I will send poverty upon you, and will curse your blessings yea I will curse them, because you have not laid it to heart. |
Mark 7:9-13 |
| And he said to them, “You
have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to
establish your tradition! For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and
your mother’; and, ‘Whoever reviles father or mother must
surely die.’ But you say, ‘If a man tells his father or his
mother, “Whatever you would have gained from me is Corban”’
(that is, given to God)— then you no longer permit him to do
anything for his father or mother, thus making void the word of
God by your tradition that you have handed down. And many such
things you do.” |
| Galatians 3:10 For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed be everyone who does not abide by all things written in the Book of the Law, and do them. Some background reading that will scandalise those who are not Holy Roman Catholic and Apostolic Traditionalists. Now, the intent of ABS is not to scandalise but parade before people some ignored facts that can not be spoken about if Ecumenism and our political rapprochement with the Messias-Deniers is to continue. Make no mistake about it. IF The Holy Roman Catholic and Apostolic Church, once again, begins to teach the fullness of its truth as is required of it (See The Church of Christ by E. Sylvester Berry STD; page 52 "Unity of Doctrine" ...She cannot teach contradictory doctrines in different places or at different times; she cannot even teach a part of her doctrines in one place or in one age, and another part in another place or another age, She must teach all truths at all times and in all places, then the game is over. Bye, bye happy meetings during which we abandon and castigate Tradition and orthodox Ecclesiastical Praxis so the Messias-Deniers will like us. One crucial question for Catholic man is what is more important, truth or putative peace on earth? |
