When these methods were used, a number of false St. Rose Philippine Duchesne˝ stigmatics were exposed. Sometimes this stigmata became invisible on express request and prayers by the Saints who suffered them.

This holy servant of God No case of stigmata is known to have occurred before the was beatified by Pope Pius XII in 1940 and canonized by Pope John thirteenth century, when the depiction of the crucified Jesus in Paul II in 1988. Western Christendom emphasized his humanity. Stigmata˝ In his paper Hospitality and Pain, Christian theologian Ivan Illich states: "Compassion with Christ... is faith so strong and so Stigmata (singular stigma) is a term used by members deeply incarnate that it leads to the individual embodiment of the of the Christian faith to describe bodily marks, sores, contemplated pain." His thesis is that stigmata result from exceptional or sensations of pain in locations corresponding to the poignancy of religious faith and desire to associate oneself with the crucifixion wounds of Jesus Christ, such as the hands, wrists, and suffering Messiah. feet. The term originates from the line at the end of Saint Paul's Letter Next week: Specific cases — St. Francis of Assisi & St. Padre to the Galatians where he says, "I bear on my body the marks of Pio ~ catholic.org Jesus." Stigmata is the plural of the Greek word .... stigma, meaning a mark, tattoo, or brand such as might have been used for identification of an animal or slave. An individual bearing stigmata is referred to as a stigmatic or a stigmatist. Stigmata are primarily associated with the Roman Catholic faith. Many reported stigmatics are members of Catholic religious orders. St. Francis of Assisi was the first recorded stigmatic in Christian history. For over fifty years Padre Pio of Pietrelcina of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin reported stigmata which were studied by several 20th century physicians, whose independence from the Church is not known. The observations were reportedly unexplainable and the wounds never became infected. A high percentage (perhaps over 80%) of all stigmatics are women. In his Stigmata: A Medieval Phenomenon in a Modern Age, Edward Harrison suggests that there is no single mechanism whereby the marks of stigmata were produced. Reported cases of stigmata take various forms. Many show some or all of five Holy Wounds that were, according to the Bible, inflicted on Jesus during his crucifixion: wounds in the wrists and feet, from nails, and in the side, from a lance. Some stigmatics display wounds to the forehead similar to those caused by the Crown of Thorns. Stigmata as crown of thorns appearing in the 20th century, e.g. on Marie Rose Ferron, have been repeatedly photographed. Other “Do not allow the reported forms include tears of blood or sweating blood, and wounds to the back as from scourging. sad spectacle of The ecstasy and sufferings usually began for the Saints who suffered stigmata starting on Thursday and ending on Friday human injustice to afternoon around 3 or 4 o'clock.

  • Signs and Wonders
    www.amazingdiscoveries.org 2011 Signs and Wonders Do you believe God exists? Why? There are many reasons people believe in God. Some base their beliefs on the teaching of Scripture, or perhaps on role models and people they admire. Some say they've been convinced by the Holy Spirit of His presence in their lives. Others had an emotional experience or even saw something amazing that led them to believe God is real. The Holy Spirit is at work in the world, but we need to ensure that the spirit we choose to listen to is in fact the Spirit of God. While supernatural signs and wonders have drawn many to God—including Saul, who became Paul, the world’s most famous missionary—we must be careful not to be guided exclusively by circumstances and emotions. In fact, Hebrews 11:1 tells us that faith is the evidence of what we do not see. As humans, what we can see is never the whole picture. When Jesus was on Earth, He performed many supernatural miracles and signs. But even then, many people still didn’t believe He was God (John 12:37). In Matthew 12, we read of some of the Jewish religious leaders who ask Jesus for a sign from heaven. Jesus responds by telling them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign” (Matthew 12:39). Later He tells the Jews through a parable that if the ancient law and prophecies He had given them could not convince them, neither could a miraculous sign (Luke 16:19-31).

  • A Treasury of Atonement
    A Treasury of Atonement A Collection of Quotations from Approved Sources The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure. -- Deuteronomy 28:12 Who has known the mind of the Lord? – Rom. 11:34 Introduction 1. St. Gertrude 2. Louis of Blois 3. St. Therese of Lisieux 4. Peter d'Airelle, Jacinta Marto and Rose Ferron 5. Sister Josefa Menendez 6. St. Faustina Kowalska 7. Anselmo del Alamo 8. Padre Pio 9. Sister Maria Concepcion Zuniga 10. Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen Introduction HRIST Our Lord said: “Therefore every scribe who is instructed unto Cthe kingdom of heaven, is like unto a man that is a householder, who bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.” This is a short collec- tion of quotations from the vast treasure house of the church, about suffering, reparation, atonement, and the cross. No matter how much you have read, you can always find something new. Christ said that he would make all things new, (Apoc. 21:5) that he would establish a new covenant, and put new wine into new bottles. We have now arrived at the newest, the most recent, the last, and perhaps the best, period of human history. “Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.” 1. St. Gertrude ERTRUDE, a holy virgin most dear to God, was once divinely taught Gthat one who is considering in his heart the image of the Crucified, ought to think he hears Jesus Christ Himself saying to him, with a gentle voice, “Behold, thou seest how for love of thee I hung upon the cross, naked, despised, My whole Body wounded, and every limb stretched.

  • Motu Proprio
    Motu proprio In law, motu proprio (Latin for: "on his own impulse") describes an official act taken without a formal request from another party. Some jurisdictions use the termsua sponte for the same concept. In Catholic canon law, it refers to a document issued by the Pope on his own initiative and personally signed by him.[1] Such a document may be addressed to the whole Church, to part of it, or to some individuals.[1] A document issued motu proprio has its legal effect even if the reasons given for its issuance are found to be false or fraudulent, a fact which would normally render the document invalid. Its validity is based on its issuance by the pope by his own initiative, not upon the reasons alleged. The first motu proprio was promulgated by Pope Innocent VIII in 1484. It continues to be a common form of Papal rescript, especially when establishing institutions, making minor changes to law or procedure, and when granting favours to persons or institutions.[2] Contents Effect Form Notable examples In civil law References External links Effect An important effect of the issue of a document in this way is that a rescript containing the clause motu proprio is valid and produces its effect even in cases where fraud would ordinarily have vitiated the document, since the Pope does not rely on the reasons alleged when he grants a favour.[2] Withholding of the truth in what, according to canonical law, style and practice, must for validity be expressed, normally renders a rescript invalid, but not if the rescript is issued motu proprio.[3]

  • Partnership Between Painters and Sculptors in 17Th-Century Spain: on Model Drawings by Francisco Rizi for an Altarpiece of the Expectant Virgin Eduardo Lamas-Delgado
    RIHA Journal 0063 | 11 January 2013 Partnership between painters and sculptors in 17th-century Spain: on model drawings by Francisco Rizi for an altarpiece of the Expectant Virgin Eduardo Lamas-Delgado Editing and peer review managed by: Simon Laevers, Royal Institute for Cultural Heritage (IRPA-KIK), Brussels Peer Reviewers: Mark McDonald, Zahira Véliz Abstract This paper deals with a case study of the collaboration between sculptors and painters in the context of the construction of altarpieces in 17th-century Spain. It analyses a drawing by Francisco Rizi (Madrid, 1614-Escorial, 1685) in the British Museum depicting a sculptural group and fragments of an architectural framework, and relates it to two other drawings by the same artist in the National Library of Spain. They are identified as fragments of the design drawing of the former altarpiece of the Expectant Virgin in the church of the Calced Trinitarians in Madrid. * * * * * [1] As shown recently by the London exhibition The Sacred Made Real. Spanish Painting and Sculpture 1600-1700, the Spanish tradition of painted wooden sculptures gave rise to remarkable partnerships between sculptors and painters for the creation of a single work of art1. But painters did not just collaborate with sculptors to carry out the polychromy of their works; they also provided them with designs2. The latter kind of partnership between painters and sculptors was particularly widespread in the context of the construction of altarpieces, usually a great enterprise that required collective work3. Spanish baroque altarpieces varied widely in form and size, but were always the product of a partnership between sculptors and painters, along with gilders, joiners, architects and draughtsmen.
