A Bride makes herself ready before the Bridegroom arrives, correct?
We all, each one of us, are the gatekeeper. As the guard is usually put in shifts so to we are so positioned and should pray to be ready to welcome the master and Lord Savior Christ. Each of us like a type of St. John the Baptist of whom Jesus said none is greater. We are striving for all holiness, yet fearful & trembling in our human vocation.
This lecture put the book of Tobit in my mind for some reason, when Tobias leaves his father and mother with the angel Raphael to claim the money that is owed to his father, his parents start to worry that he won't return after he is gone a long time. When he does return he returns with his new wife Sarah, and the angel Raphael who accompanied him on his journey reveals to him and his family that he is an angel. It never occured to me before that this could be analogous of the second return of Christ. There seems to be many parallels such as Raphael routing the demon(Tobit8:1-3), Just as Christ plundered the kingdom of Satan(Matthew12:29).
Also Tobit is physically blind(Tobit2:10) just as the Jews are metaphorically blind(Romans11:8) regarding Christ until his return(Matthew23:39). Just as Tobit is cured of his blindness by his son with the help of the angel Raphael upon their return, the Jews likewise will realize Christ is their Moshiach upon his return.
There is also allusions to the Trinity because Tobias, Sarah and Raphael all return home to Tobias's family. I'm sure some Church fathers must have written about the similarities as well.
*ANY* (holy) mention of Tobias gets my like! ❤️️🙏 Sometimes I read that just for the immense hope, a HOLY HOPE, it gives. Do you know how many people there are who never have even _heard_ of Tobias?! Very sad.
@@MelanCholy2001 - Same here Melan I read Tobit often, it's one of my favourite books in the Old Testament.
Hallelujah and Amen 🙏
Come my God let everyone know and taste you and be a new creation before your coming
We gotta be real, though: God's not preventing anyone, but there are people who know, and don't have any desire for the Eucharist, or for Heaven. We don't want to accidentally make a prayer that would displease our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It's near to asking that Iscariot of Ps 108 (109 Protestant) notoriety get another shot. #NotGodsWill Please be careful because it is throughout Holy Writ and the Church Magesterium (pre-20th C, probably way earlier before our guys started making up anti-Christ stuff in "modern day talmuds" that have no part of the Church). You don't have to believe me. Read nearly any part of Holy Writ.
If they mock our holy God Triune, and they hate the Church, we can't pray for that. That's beyond our scope. I'm in Ecclesiasticus. Read the first 5 chapters, about 15 minutes, how we can't go "too far" with the hidden things, and accept the simple (if ugly) truth God has graced us with. Or Esdras I and II when a handful of holy people TRY to whip some sense of holiness into "God's people" and realize, there's a screw missing. It's sad, but those are some simple but TRUE passages that makes it crystal clear why the Final Judgement STARTS with God's People.

Nice
May we all keep our oil lamps filled to the brim at all times for we know not when our Bridegroom will come. Let's stay in Prayer my fellow Charismatic Catholics 🙏🙏🙏
Catholics should not be charismatic. Leave that for the protestants. Attend a traditional Latin Mass so you can see what you have been cheated out of.
@@melissaplanas6083 Yes Latin mass is the way to go but let us respect our Christian separated brothers and sisters too with unity in Christ..
@@manny9800 I thought I was respectful enough. I didn't put her down.
Not long ago I had a dream. I was instructed to watch a natural catastrophe on a television. I asked "what is this?" I was laughed at, as if I should know, & I was told it's the Apocalypse (revealing of Christ). I argued, saying "no, this is just one disaster & the Apocalypse is trouble all over the world". My companions & I got into a car & went to see for ourselves, I drove. We started at the top of a mountain in a red convertible. Our journey started easy, but I soon realized that the path we were taking spiraled in circles down the mountain. We were eventually going so fast that the car was on it's side, on two wheels. I slammed on the brakes & said "STOP!!! I understand now. Although I only saw one catastrophe on television, the troubles of the world are becoming more frequent & more severe, just as Jesus described being like a woman in labor with her labor pangs first being easy, but as the time of birth comes nearer, they occur more frequently & with more severity until the birth happens. Look around the world, the troubles are increasing in frequency & severity. Jesus's return is coming closer!
In The Case for Jesus Dr.Pitre writes on page 92 "as I have written (in a much longer book)" which book is he refer to? Thank you.
The end of Jesus's ministry: Watch, Keep awake! Pray! You don't know when the Parousia will happen, the final coming of Jesus in His Glory! Jesus does not set a deadline for the end of the world. We need to stay awake!

This was an idiom of that day. It was the feast of the New Moon which was looked for intently from two vantage points and began at the first evidence but was always approximately known.
Just read the verse before you read Mark 13:32 But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.
Is he really coming back? john 1:51
He can't come soon enough.
Who is the second coming of Christ?
The existence of "duality" in the Lord...
It is said , "the word of the Lord is a two-edged sword...one edge is at one side , and the other edge is at the opposite side...so we have a sword with two sides or edges which are actually opposites...this is the very foundation of the word of the Lord , it is no wonder that words that seem to be "adversaries" are actually bosom buddies...
The book of job had it stated clearly ,
Job 12:16 (ESV)
16 With him are strength and sound wisdom;
the DECEIVED and the DECEIVER are His...
Take note that both words DECEIVED and DECEIVER are opposites...you will notice also that one is the recipient of the action of the other...in this regard , they are inseparable and they are essential parts of the works of the Lord...men should not put them asunder...the Lord made them one , and had them dwell in one body which is the temple of God...
One great example are the words , "Christ" and "antichrist"...christ is at one side of the sword of the Lord while the antichrist occupies the other side of the two-edged sword of the Lord which is the Word of God...
As you can see now , the Christ and the antichrist are bosom buddies for they dwell together in the word of the Lord-this is the so-called "mystery of Christ" foretold in the Book of Revelation , that Christ has a companion , his opposite...
The antichrist which the whole world is calling as their enemy is , in reality , the other self of Christ or his alter ego...if Christ had been a friend of sinners once , he will be returning as the enemy of sinners , and this second time he shall destroy sinners and their evil works...this is why Christ has an "anti" prefixed to his name , he shall go against the world of sins and sinners , and shall annihilate all their evil works...
If one man hates this antichrist , he is actually hating Christ for this antichrist is the second coming of Christ...this is now the revelation of that "mystery of Christ"...
Jesus told Christians to pray for God's Kingdom to come and for His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. God's Kingdom is a heavenly government ruled by Jesus Christ as King. Soon Jesus will bring beautiful changes to the earth. There will be no more death, pain or sorrow on earth, Revelation 21:4,5. No more wickedness on earth, Psalms 37:9-11; John 3:16. The righteous hearted meek ones will inherit the earth and live forever on it, Psalms 37:29; Matthew 5:5; Proverbs 2:21,22. The earth will be cultivated into a Paradise like God intended in the beginning, Genesis 1:28; Isaiah 55:11. There will only be one government over the earth, God's Kingdom government, Daniel 2:44. In order to receive everlasting life and the blessings that God has promised, we must worship the Father with spirit and truth, John 5:22-24; John 17:3; Isaiah 42:8. Soon Jesus as King of kings will bring about God's will on earth as it is in heaven, Matthew 6:10. Hallelujah! Do you have faith in God's Word? Do you wonder what life will be like when God's Kingdom is ruling over the entire earth?
Wouldn't it be impossible for Jesus to come before the anticrist . the moment the anticrist appeared to all humanity , just get ready.
Actually scary, purgatory or later judgement hell and anyon's hope heaven will be later?!?! Don't know, just a thought being not easy to be a Catholic with experience of suffering. 🙏🛐
We've actually got it pretty good, like the first few centuries after our Lord Jesus' Passion Death Resurrection and ASCENSION!* Yep: *Martyrdom!* Pray it be fast. (And maybe with some anesthesia, for the weaker among us, of whom I count myself!!!) You go out a Martyr for the FAITH, insta-GTG! 😀😇✝️🔥✝️📿🙏😍 Just think, *BEATIFIC VISION* and do full penance for even thinking a curse word. Be nice to everyone. (Well, we still have to keep the Faith Once Delivered and shun our fellows who are falling, after a 'fraternal correction'.) They start handing out yellow stars, DO WHAT THE SAINTS DID! Don't run: we're gonna *get our crowns!* 👑
Beats the hell of the alternative - pun intended
@@MelanCholy2001 thanks, and you're from what nation, pls?
We are not to live in fear,but in peace and be confident in your salvation, Titus 1:2 In hopes of eternal life God cannot lie, he promised before the world began. 1John5:13 these things I have written unto you that believe on the son of God that you may know you will have eternal life. Reads these verses the gospels unto salvation. Romans 10:9, Ephesians 2:8-9, Ephesians 1:13, and the gospel 1CORINTHIANS 15:1-4..
It is unbiblical about purgatory for it is a made up Catholic doctrine. Blessings!
First to comment ❤️❤️❤️
You Do Not Know Know When the Master of the House Will Come,
So repent from your dead works (heb 6:1), and toward faith in Christ.
Salvation is not a path full of works, you do not _'work out'_ your salvation to get it : that's work based salvation.
salvation is a free gift, and therefore is not based on your performance after your believed.
Don't reject God's grace by wanting to reimburse God : you can't, not even by 1 space penny.
Nicolas 🙏🏾Amen brethren
Then why Paul says to the Philipians 2:12 “...continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling”?

@The Lesser Confessor
*"False teaching. Dead works refers to the old ceremonial laws that Jesus fulfilled."*
Yes dead works are the works you perform for your salvation.
Since it cannot achieve what it is supposed to achieve (because you can't be saved by your works), then it is dead works.
*"We are absolutely required to perform good works."*
to be saved? no: these are dead works.
we do good works to be fruitful, and because it is the right thing to do, not to be saved.
I hope for your integrity that you won't tell people you don't believe in a work-based salvation after that.
*"See Matthew 25."*
mat 25:40-46 _"40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. [...] 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal."_
catholics always forget the second part of the judgment.
if you didn't do the good work once, then you are going into everlasting punishment.
Mat25 describes how God will deal will work-based salvationists.
Do you believe you are sinless? do you always do the good works? always? without failing even once?
@@JuanRamirez-di9bl
*"Then why Paul says to the Philipians **2:12** “...continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling”?"*
Scripture twisting!
-> Is the context about how to get saved?
Or is it out to behave as a child of God? (i.e after salvation)
Why do you totally ignore the context? What good do you think can come out of half a sentence, extracted from a whole chapter?
the rest of the bible tells you you are not saved by your works, but you will jump on the first occasion to twist a scripture and preach work-based salvation!
You are lost sir ... wake up : you cannot be sinless, and that is the only way to get saved by your merit: -> not needing Jesus Christ.
Do you think you can do it? or is it already too late since you already sinned too much up to this time?
@@nicolas9533 I apologize brother, I did not meant to write such a short response without giving the appropriate context in expectance that someone would understand what I was trying to say. I will try to make some time to write a more elaborate response as to why I believe what I believe, meanwhile God bless you and keep you safe!
