Continue, continue, says the Apostle, to live obstinately in sin; but in proportion to your obstinacy, you shall have accumulated for the day of judgment a treasure of the wrath of God: “But according to thy hardness and impenitent heart, thou treasurest up to thyself wrath against the day of wrath” (Rom 2: 5) Then sinners will not be able to hide themselves but, with insuffera- ble pain, they shall be compelled to appear in judgment. “To lie hid” says St. Anselm, “will be impossible to appear will be intolerable.” The devils will perform their office of accusers, and as St. Augustine says, will say to the Judge: “Most just God, declare him to be mine, who was unwilling to be yours.” The witnesses against the wicked shall be first, their own conscience.” Their conscience bearing witness to them,” (Rom. 2:15); secondly, the very walls of the house in which they sinned shall cry out against them. “The stone shall cry out of the wall,” (Hab. 2:11); thirdly, the Judge himself will say “I am the judge and the witness, saith the Lord.” (Jer. 29: 23) Hence, according to St. Augustine, “He, who is now the witness of your life, shall be the judge of your cause.” OF YOUR CHARITY, PLEASE PRAY FOR: Pope Francis, Archbishop Thomas Wenski, Fr.
