This E R repentance for men rebellion is reflected after death”. in the tempter's F (St. John words, "You will be A Damascene like God” (Gen 3:5). R E SIX SATANIC STRATEGIES 1.Temptation-perverse desires for things that will separate us from God’s love and his protection. This includes coveting pleasure, power, prestige, sex and money. Examples include toxic attachment to pornography, alcohol, drug use and unholy company. 2.Oppression (obsession)-is an external diabolic assault on the Spirit, Mind or Body. Compulsions attacking the faculties of the intellect and the will (powers of the soul) may lead to hurting self and others. The “obsessed” often struggle with habitual sin and addictions. 3. Possession —Demons takes complete internal control of the mind and body of a person— but not the soul. Remember Satan cannot control the will. He can however assault the will with simultaneous temptation & obsession to take control. The devil is a being that carries out dark actions . penetrating the world and the church. He is our enemy and enemies hide; he is an actor. Evil is not just something lacking or a privation of good but evil is a living perverted spiritual being.” Pope Paul VI SIX SATANIC STRATEGIES 4.Infestation – contamination through a deliberate attack on a house, place of work, or a location with the use of an object or animal sacrifice consecrating the specific territory to Satan. Diabolical pollution occurs through incantations, sacrifices and ritualistic practices—and by people who employ witches, mediums, shamans and pagan practitioners to cast spells, curses and hexes. Pets and animals can be infected by demons through infestation. 5.Disturbance—is a physical assault. Beatings and maulings have been commonplace among many of our Saints, Blesseds and Venerables. Padre Pio was scourged with heavy chains, leaving him bruised and bleeding and his bed was set afire. 6.Vexation-like in the Story of Job in Holy Scripture the Evil One may attack people around us to destroy our family, our job, our house, our health, our reputation—to force us to abandon the Lord. We must be discerning about this phenomena with the help of the Church and deep prayer—there are also “The faith of a person practically cancels out Satan.” may be social forces which may affect our personhood and our lives which may be associated Thomas Aquinas with these occurrences that are not diabolical. Discernment is critical. One true deadly power in Satan’s artillery Satan fights like hell to keep us sinning and to keep us away from the one who forgives sin.

  • Most Holy Name of Jesus
    Most Holy Name of Jesus SAINT OF THE DAY 03-01-2021 "Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it." The words of Our Lord in John's Gospel stress the importance of the Most Holy Name of Jesus, actually venerated from the earliest centuries of Christianity, as attested by the various Christograms (those combinations of Greek or Latin letters of the alphabet to form acronyms of the name of Christ) found in early Christian art. The liturgical cult of the Name of Jesus, however, would only take root between the 15th and 16th centuries. The sacredness surrounding the name of Jesus, which means "God saves", a name imposed on him by Mary and Joseph after the command they had individually received from the angel, is grafted into God's gradual revelation to Israel unfolding throughout the Old Testament. Here the name seems to be the core of God's pedagogy to make Himself known to men and lead them to Himself. In the theophany of the burning bush (Ex 3: 1-15) the hidden God of the Old Testament reveals Himself as "I am he who I am", thus answering Moses' question of what name he would have to report to the Israelites in order to be obeyed, and so that he could free them from the slavery of Egypt. That name ­–­ enclosed in the sacred tetragrammaton YHWH, which many Jews do not pronounce, and expressed by the title of Lord (Adonai) ­­– communicates that "God is the fullness of Being and of every perfection, without origin and without end" ( Catechism of the Catholic Church, 213); it also communicates God's faithfulness to His promise, to be fulfilled with Jesus Crucified and expressed in the prophecy pronounced before the Passion: "When you have exalted the Son of man, then you will know that I am" (Jn 8:28).

    Prayer to Saint Benedict "Admirable Saint and Doctor of Humility, you practiced what you taught, assiduously praying for God's glory and lovingly fulfilling all work for God and the benefit of all human beings. You know the many physical dangers that surround us today, often caused or occasioned by human inventions. Guard us against poisoning of the body as well as of mind and soul, and thus be truly a 'Blessed' one for us. Amen." Prayer to Saint Benedict "Glorious Saint Benedict, sublime model of virtue, pure vessel of God's grace! Behold me humbly kneeling at your feet. I implore you in your loving kindness to pray for me before the throne of God. To you I have recourse in the dangers that daily surround me. Shield me against my selfishness and my indifference to God and to my neighbor. Inspire me to imitate you in all things. May your blessing be with me always, so that I may see and serve Christ in others and work for His kingdom. Graciously obtain for me from God those favors and graces which I need so much in the trials, miseries and afflictions of life. Your heart was always full of love, compassion and mercy toward those who were afflicted or troubled in any way. You never dismissed without consolation and assistance anyone who had recourse to you. I therefore invoke your powerful intercession, confident in the hope that you will hear my prayers and obtain for me the special grace and favor I earnestly implore.

In fact the story heightens the surprise and shock we feel as we hear Jesus’ exchange with the Canaanite woman. The Reverend Matthew E.

The disciples ask Jesus to send her away, and Jesus agrees, remarking that he Deacon Joseph J. Wrabel was sent to minister to the Jews alone.

Jesus, Mary, Joseph please make haste to help us! + + + Jesus, Mary, Joseph + + + From the book - Sermons of the Cure of Ars – St. John Mary Vianney THE GLORY AND THE POWER OF THE HOLY NAME. “He humbled Himself, becoming obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross. For which cause God also hath exalted Him, and hath given Him a name which is above all names.”— Phil. ii. 8-9. Dearly beloved in the Lord! On this Sunday we celebrate in an especial manner the festival in honor of the Holy Name of Jesus, that Name which is, for every Christian, the noblest and dearest, the holiest and the most consoling.

In this sense we honor and praise the names of the Saints whose memory will never die, but will always be honored by God and men; we think with joy of their exalted and heroic virtues, their living and steadfast faith, their self-sacrificing love for their neighbor, their untiring zeal to help their fellow men to that true happiness and salvation which comes from God alone—yes, truly the names of the Saints, and, above all, that of the Queen of Saints, and the names of all God’s elect, are dear to us, and we pronounce them with reverence and love; indeed, it would be a sin not to do so.

  • Ayurveda Derives from the Sanskrit Ayus [Longevity of Life] and Veda
    NEW WEBSITE: www.ephesians-511.net JULY 2004, AUGUST 2009, MAY/OCTOBER 2012/JULY 2013 A Y U R V E D A This study of ayurveda was prompted by inquiries made of the writer [from India and abroad] by some who were concerned with the question of any potential difficulties that may arise in the use of this Indian system of medicine by Christians, especially with the Vatican cautions on New Age remedies, herbal medicine and holistic health therapies in its February 3, 2003 Document. They wanted to know, "Does ayurveda fit the bill?" ORIGINS Said to be part of the Atharva Veda and practised from Vedic times, ayurveda derives from the Sanskrit ayur [life] and veda [knowledge or science], meaning 'the science of life'. One story concerning its origin goes like this: Concerned about the problem of disease on earth, sages meeting on the Himalayas deputed one Bharadwaja to approach the god Indra who knew about ayurveda from the Ashwini twins, the physicians to the gods, who learnt it from Daksha Prajapati who in turn had received his knowledge from the creator, Brahma. Bharadwaja passed on his learning to the other sages, of whom one Punarvasu Atreya taught it to his six disciples. Agnivesha, one of the six, wrote his learning down in the Agnivesha Tantra around the 8th century BC, which was revised by Charaka as the Charaka Samhita in the 6th century BC, and again revised in the 9th century AD by Dridhabala, a Kashmiri pandit. Another text, the Susruta Samhita, [by Susruta who is regarded as the father of ayurvedic surgery] is the main source of knowledge about surgery in ancient India.

    Gabriele amorth padre pio pdf Continue Thursday 15 October Santa Teresa de Jesus (Teresa Avila)SpiritualityGelsomino Del Gercio - published on 08/02/18O pe. Piero Catalano is a spiritual disciple, for example. Gabriele Amort, the late Italian priest who was considered one of the greatest exorcists in the world. Ne. Piero, who is also Italian, says that during the exorcism he performs, he uses the relics of the saints and refers with great efficiency to the help of The Holy Father Pio de Pietrecina, whom the devil calls a man with a beard or Francesco Forgione. This is not the first time that the exorcist has shown how much hatred and fear is just the name Padre Pio. After Piero was ordained a priest on 8 December 1988, dedicated to volunteering through the Genocare-affiliated Gene Movement, Piero was ordained a priest. Since then, he has been a parish priest in several churches in Reggio Calabria, southern Italy.He has been preparing for years to serve exorcism. Spiritual son Amord has been practicing liberation prayers for 18 years and has been officially named exorcist for three years. Corriere della SeraL'esorcista calabreseO pe. Piero keeps many relics of saints, which he uses during exorcisms. Another of his weapons against the devil, especially powerful, is the name (and presence) of St. Pius Pietrelcina.De according to the priest's testimony, Saint Pius is often present during exorcisms, to the point that the obsessive man reveals fear and makes statements such as The man with the beard is here! Then the exorcist asks, And by chance he is called Saint Pius Pietrelcini? His name is Francesco Forgione.
