Pastor's Meanderings 3 – 4 October 2020 Twenty
PASTOR’S MEANDERINGS 3 – 4 OCTOBER 2020 TWENTY-SEVENTH SUNDAY ORDINARY TIME (A) SUNDAY REFLECTION Today’s readings make it clear that Christianity is a religion that makes demands, and that authentic Christians must be recognized by the fruits they bear. Isaiah has God, the lord of the vineyard, say, ‘I expected (rich succulent) grapes; why has my vineyard yielded only sour grapes instead?’ The Lord complained that He expected to find justice and integrity in His people, but all He could see or bear was bloodshed and the cry of the oppressed. The Gospel reading ends with the assertion that the kingdom will be given to those who will respond generously to the demands which the Lord will make on them, and who will produce the fruit of good works when God demands them. In our Second Reading,(Phil. 4:6-9) St. Paul’s wish is that people’s hearts and thoughts will be centered on Christ, on His example and on His teaching. He reminds his readers that they should practice the virtues that are admired and esteemed by all who appreciate what is best and noblest in human nature. The world should be able to see the goodness, the decency, the integrity and the graciousness of all who claim to be followers of Christ. How can we Christians who belong to a world where Christian values are being increasingly pushed to the margins of life live up to the demands and the high ideals that are expressed in these readings? How are we to live out in our daily lives the beliefs and principles we proclaim on Sunday? We who so often hear people decry the mores of contemporary society may be pleased to hear Paul suggest in today’s reading that we might learn useful lessons from those around us who may not be noted for their piety or religiosity, but who observe high moral standards and live by noble ideals. -

Mariology – Part 2
PAUL M. WILLIAMS [09/12/16] IS ROMAN CATHOLICISM TRUE CHRISTIANITY? – PART 11 MARIOLOGY – PART 2 Recap We began in our last teaching part to explore what is termed in the realm of theology, Mariology – which is the study of Mary, the mother of Jesus. We outlined the biblical portrayal of Mary, a righteous women and a humble handmaid of the Lord. She it was who was found with child of the Holy Spirit, who gave birth to Messiah and nursed Him who was called King of the Jews. We looked at the early life of Jesus and how His mother played an integral role in His nativity and in His early childhood. However, we also saw that as Jesus was growing into manhood, a clear transitioning of authority was taking place between that of His submission to his earthly parents and His submission to His Father in heaven. This was brought out most forcefully in two accounts recorded in the gospel of Luke and John – the first being Jesus’ response to Mary when being only twelve in Jerusalem (Luke 2:48-49) and the other when just beginning His ministry at the wedding in Cana of Galilee (John 2:1-5). For Roman Catholics, Mary is not merely and only the biological mother of Jesus, the vehicle used by God to bring His Son into this world. Official Catholic Church dogma teaches that Mary remained a perpetual virgin; that Mary is free from original sin (Immaculate Conception) and at the end of her life on earth, she was taken up into heaven where she continues perpetually to be the mother of God and Queen of Heaven. -

FEAST of OUR LADY of the ROSARY - OCTOBER 7TH Excerpts from America Needs Fatima and Encyclopedia Britannica
FEAST OF OUR LADY OF THE ROSARY - OCTOBER 7TH excerpts from America Needs Fatima and encyclopedia Britannica Brief History of the Rosary The Blessed Virgin Mary first gave the Rosary to St. Dominic of Guzman in a vision in 1208, as he earnestly begged God for a solution to the Albigensian heresy. This particular heresy maintained that all material creation was evil, and only the spiritual was good, and was aggressively infecting the south of France. After St. Dominic began to preach the reciting of the Rosary, as instructed by the Blessed Virgin, the days of the Albigensian error were numbered. Our Lady of the Rosary The feast of Our Lady of the Rosary was instituted by Pope St. Pius V in honor and thanksgiving for the great naval victory of the greatly outnumber allied Christian force called the “Holy League,” against a much larger but less disciplined, Muslim fleet at Lepanto located in the waters off southwestern Greece in 1571. The "League" was formed in response to the attack against Cyprus by the Muslim Ottoman Empire, which had all the intentions of a continued invasion of Western Europe. This battle was also historically remarkable, in that it was the last and greatest engagement with oar-propelled vessels and the first great victory over a Turkish fleet. During the battle, while the fate of Christian Europe hung in the balance on October 7, 1571, the Sovereign Pontiff called for a Rosary procession in Rome. It was during that procession that the victory was decided for the Christian fleet while engage in the “Battle of Lepanto”. -
