25th Anniversary Keynote Speeches: Prof. Michael O’Brien

He highlighted the beautiful fruits of this mission: alumni priests, women in consecrated life, countless marriages, and the many "grandchildren" of the college. Above all, he reminded us that the young will always remain our mission, as Christ’s love continues to bear fruit through them.

    Protestantism leaves behind a secular godless society. While its introduction may plant and even spread Christianity it simultaneously plants the seeds of its own destruction leaving behind A SECULARIZED REGION REPLEAT OF ANY RELIGION. How COULD SUCH A RELIGION BE of God. It cannot be of God and is therefor a false religion. It is Satan's great vehicle for the destruction of Christianity.

  • @thomasjorge4734
    @thomasjorge4734 2 роки тому

    A. A more Orthodox Saint Joseph is an Older Widower with his own children; around 45-60yrs. of age. B. Better for Protestants would be a Saint Joseph who is a young adolescent male, 15-20, contemporary to Mary, with whom he later has other children. C. The Catholic View made more realistic with a 30yr. old well established small businessman in the construction trades, dying at 60, after which Jesus leaves and Mary sells the shop.

    @Olivia Rosebrough Read Jer 1:3. Then read Jer 58:3. There is a very very very very very very Vast difference between children, in the womb, who God knew before they were born, who were not liars, predestined for salvation; and children, who were liars while still in their mothers rooms, before they were concieved into their mothers wombs, that God knew them as liars, before then; and they were liars then, predestined to Damnation. (Proverbs) Here is what the Jewish teaching about, when writing about those who are born with the light of Israel, in them and those who were born as the Sons of Darkness. This is where the teaching about the wheat sowed into the same field with the tares (weeds) comes from in the Bible. Shall you teach that which God, has not given you to teach? Are all men born equal? Are all men born predestined to salvation? Did Mary tell you that God wants those babies born who are born as the weeds amount the wheat, and to be adopted, by the wheat. Will the tares not, come and kill the wheat the grows beside it in the same field? You're telling me that Mary doesn't care if I adopt a baby destined to Damnation, that could destroy our families souls when bright home and it's unbaptized? HARKEN INTO MY WORDS AND MY VOICE. Jesus said, in his Last Prayers to God in Heaven, "I Pray Not, for the world and everyone in the world Father, but rather FOR THOSE THAT ARE THINE, IN THE WORLD!!!!!!" hey that through your head!!!!! God, who made Jesus pay him tribute, for getting men's sins forgiven by Him, doesn't want to give all babies Carte Blanche Forgiveness because they're unborn babies. LISTEN UP!!!! I'M THEOLOGICAL CORRECT HERE!!! "JESUS WOULDN'T AND WON'T LISTEN TO MOTHER MARY'S PLEAS, BECAUSE HE CAN'T BE ON EVERYONE'S SIDE THAT IS AN UNBORN AND UNBAPTIZED AND UNBORN AGAIN soul coming into the world through a mother's womb!!!!!!! Unless you are born again, you cannot come into the presence of Almighty God. Will Mary do that which Jesus, could not do? Can Mary un- Predestine those whom the Lord God, the Almighty in Heaven, would not do without baptism. Can Mary put the Light of Israel into new Babies who were never intended to receive it, from a time before they were placed into their mothers womb? Mary would have to be God. Jesus can't do that feat either. This establishes an authority hierarchy that comes from the Creator, to his Son. I never read anywhere in the Bible, that Mother Mary can defy God's plans for salvation.

    To answer: "Question, how heavily do you think the Greco-Roman idea of tartarus/Elysium have influenced Christian views on the ideas of Heaven and Hell?" To some degree, many of the Church Fathers were aware of the mythology of the classical age. It is my belief that these intimations of ultimate realities arose from Natural Law in human nature--the imago Dei--they were prefigurements in human consciousness. Chesterton once wrote that the modern mythologists position is this; since there was a dying God who returns to life in some ancient mythologies, therefore the resurrection of Christ can not be true, only symbolic. The modern mythologists--or de-mythologists--fail to comprehend that God was preparing, at an intuitive level, people of all times and places for the Incarnation.

  • @michaelobrien8273

    To answer: "Do you have any suggestions for perseverance? While some of us may have singular moments of choice in which we can choose the good (e.g. Paval saving Fr Elijah as a child), how do we who live the long slow life stay strong?" Living the life of the Church completely; prayer, sacraments, developing the constant habit of turning our thoughts to God, and invoking the Holy name of Jesus over our innermost negative habits and impulses to sin. Athletes train their bodies, and so too we must train our habits of behaviour and thoughts by commitment to self-discipline daily. Ask for the grace for this.

    To answer: "You shut down your website in order to focus on projects as you are now an older man. Can you share whether these projects are literary, paint, or something else entirely?" Primarily novel writing. My novel "The Lighthouse" will be published two weeks from now. I also have two additional novels that I am working on, one in the final stages of editing. With declining time and energy I try to focus on my creative work and this means almost no involvement in internet culture.
