About Our Mission

Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature.
—Mark 16: 15
A eunuch for the Kingdom (cf. Matt. 19: 12).
A friend indeed.
A shepherd that is envious of the sheep is really not like Christ with all
his promises (cf. John 14: 12).
A sign that we are fully alive is that we are constantly learning: death
brings decay, life yields improvement, growth, and fruitfulness.
A sure means for directing souls is personal sanctity.
Administrator, be trustworthy (cf. 1 Cor. 4: 2).
Admonish sinners (cf. Luke 17: 3; Sir. 19: 16).
All for the glory of God (cf. 1 Cor. 10: 31).
All have sinned and are deprived of the glory of God (Rom. 3: 23;
cf. 3: 10).
All things to all in order to save (cf. 1 Cor. 9: 22).
Always have a dialogue, never your monologue, with God or fellow human
beings.
Amen, amen, I say to you, no slave is greater than his master nor any
messenger greater than the one who sent him (John 13: 16).
Anticipate your neighbour's needs.
Anyone who is not against you is on your side (cf. Luke 9: 50).
Apostle: the Devil can make you avoid real mission in the world and
turn on other Christians to correct them with demonic zeal.
Apostles of Christ should not wield earthly power like political and
civic leaders (cf. Matt. 20: 25-28) but by their closeness to God, they
are much more effective and more influential than earthly powers, and
as powerful as grace, and virtue, and truth, and love, and prayer.
Apostolate bearing witness, must be both personal and collective;
private and public (cf. Acts 20: 20; 2 Macc. 6: 18-31; Matt. 5: 16).
As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good
stewards of God's varied grace (1 Pet. 4: 10).
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord (cf. Joshua 24: 1-5,
15-18).
Ask for the Holy Spirit (cf. Luke 11: 13; John 4: 5-42).
At all times vigilance (cf. Acts 20: 30).
Avoid any semblance of evil (1 Thess. 5: 22; cf. 2 Thess. 3: 6; cf. 1 Pet. 2: 1).
Avoid scandal (cf. Rom. 14: 21, 16: 17; 2 Cor. 6: 3).
Be as free as truth is truth.
Be kind, be understanding; never so what anyone.
Be ready for every grace, every inspiration, every conversion, the Second
Coming of Christ, death.
Be self-possessed (2 Tim. 4: 5).
Better obey God than humans (cf. Acts 5: 29).
Beware of false witnesses who claim to know God, but by their deeds
they deny him. They are vile and disobedient and unqualified for any
good deed (Titus 1: 16).
Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself for what he approves
(Rom. 14: 22).
Build up, build up, prepare the way,
remove the stumbling blocks from my people's path (Isa. 57: 14).
Care for the truth.
Carry the cross with the dignity of love.
Carry the sweet odor of Christ (cf. 2 Cor. 2: 15).
Caution in speech is very powerful. It stops many evils, saves many
lives, and brings about much peace.
Celibacy is a gift for a purpose. It is not a blank check but a check with
great value that is meant to be spent or used to purchase great treasures.
People with blank checks are wasting their lives.
Celibacy or marriage, decide for yourself before God and not to please
humans (cf. 1 Cor. 7: 27-28; 1 Tim. 4: 1-4).
Celibacy, availability because the Church is family.
Celibacy: if you take celibacy dogmatically, promote it oppressively,
defend it militantly . . . , you will end up hurting many lives permanently,
establishing evils in the Church, and storing up trouble for the Church.
Respect freedom and you will see wonderful things done for God, with
or without celibacy.
Celibacy: institutional celibacy can be a great burden; personal celibacy
is always a facilitator.
Celibacy: single life is a lesser thing not the best that God can do (cf. Gen.
2: 18); celibacy is a greater thing granted to those who make themselves
so for the sake of the kingdom of God (cf. Matt. 19: 11-12).
Celibate institutions that become absorbed with worldly cares have lost
touch with celibacy.
Celibate: you have dedicated your life to serving God exclusively.
Surely, you should be amongst the happiest on earth. Examine this
frequently.
Characteristics of a safe shepherd: gratitude, prayerfulness, trust in God,
love, goodwill, and encouragement (cf. Phil. 1: 3-11).
Characteristics of the reign of God: peace, love, joy, justice. If you are
not working on these daily, you are wasting your life.
Characteristics of unsafe shepherds: restlessness and witch-hunting (1
Pet. 5: 8); hypocrisy (2 Cor. 11: 14-15; Luke 12: 1); dishonesty (Matt.
24: 11); evil teaching (Matt. 5: 19); seduction (Col 2: 8); evildoing (John
8: 44; Matt. 23: 27-28; 1 Tim. 6: 3-5); exploitation (2 Pet. 2: 1; cf.
John 10: 10); unfamiliarity with Scripture (Matt. 22: 29); presumption
(Titus 1: 16). Be on the alert (Sir. 37: 8; cf. Matt. 24:4).
Charity is the source, the means, and the end.
Christ adds value to our limitations.
Christian apostle: you can bring God to people by teaching, preaching,
informing, healing . . . you can also bring people to God by helping
them to pray and serve him according to each person's blessings.
Christian associations that idolize or idealize themselves easily punish
those who do not adore them. When you are victim of such Christians,
hold your peace and be steadfast in following your way.
Christian associations that serve principles rather than God have low
spiritual value and are bound to collapse sooner or later.
Christian authority: an egoistic mindset will make you fail in self
examination and make you eager to judge others.
Christian authority: avoid the opus of evil that generates hate.
Christian authority: beware of allegiance with the powerful. It can
paralyze your ministry and make you less priestly, more beastly (cf.
Rev. 13; 3). You may lose your Christian sensitivity and become an
agent of agenda, special interests, and propaganda, and perhaps also a
minister of strife.
Christian authority: beware of saint-mongering. It is folly to study a
living Christian. Why not follow the Living Christ?
Christian authority: by spying on your members, have you been able
to know and love God more, to practice love and justice towards your
victims, to bring peace to people's lives, or have you grown confused,
threatened, and distracted from real mission.
Christian authority: by spying on your members, you can never see
like God and you will make many mistakes, do many evils, cause much
hurt . . . because you are not practicing love, a relationship.
Christian authority: faith is something you need to have to be able to
teach about it. If you don't have faith, if you don't show faith, how can
you teach about faith?
Christian authority: follow Christ. You have no better way, no surer
way, no smarter way, no safer way, no greater power, than in following
Christ.
Christian authority: freedom is not something you give to people; it is
something you must not take from people.
Christian authority: God made humans and gave them free will and
you should respect that free will.
Christian authority: if you always have to lash the cane in order to teach,
perhaps you, yourself, need schooling.
Christian authority: if you are trying to build an empire for Christ
following the pattern of a world of satanic manipulations, don't be
surprised at the confusion you create. We Christians promote the Reign
of God by being salt and light and leaven.
Christian authority: if you do not examine yourself sincerely, deeply,
and frequently, you will steadily go off tangent because generally the
people around you do not dare to correct power.
Christian authority: if you love and embrace and reward those who
give money to and do favors for the Church and its leaders but you
hate and alienate and punish members who contribute to the spiritual
well-being of the Church, that is not Christian.
Christian authority: if you see someone's fault, let your first line of
action not be to condemn, correct, or punish. Try to forgive and this
gives you room to discover if the person is really blameless.
Christian authority: it is better for people to love you than to fear
you; it is better they trust you than doubt you; it is better that they
are attracted to you than they are controlled by you. You must grow
in Christian character, in Christian Charisma, in Christian power, in
Christian fruitfulness.
Christian authority: it is up to God to choose who to use and for what
and God is all-seeing and all-wise. Do not hate anyone, no matter how
disagreeable the role or contribution of that person seems to you.
Christian authority: know what is your duty and what is not your duty
and you will not be misused, by good-spirited people or by evil-spirited
people.
Christian authority: learn to sift and sort so that you do not mislead
people (Cf. Matthew 13: 52; Rev. 17: 8).
Christian authority: looking for faults, correcting and punishing is
not a healthy focus for mission and is endless fuss. Teach, preach, cure,
instruct, provide, give, serve . . . and if you do reprove or correct, it will
be because you are doing those things that lead to liberation, salvation,
redemption, victory, and glory.
Christian authority: natural followers are better than manipulated
followers; free followers are better than captives; an apostle is not a
predator; an apostle is Christ's messenger.
Christian authority: never teach without praying to the Holy Spirit,
consulting the Holy Bible, and asking your Guardian Angel for
support.
Christian authority: never view anyone as just a means, an instrument, a
resource, capital, property, or a member. View them beyond as humans
with life and rights and who need love.
Christian authority: no saint can ever be the same as any that has passed
on. Leave people in peace and let God do as he pleases.
Christian authority: no worldly power can secure you. You, yourself,
must be on guard (Cf. Mark 14: 38).
Christian authority: not all curiosity is good, not all investigation is
good, not all research is good, not all experimentation is good. Before
God, know what is folly and know what is your duty as shepherd.
Christian authority: not allowing people to be themselves is murder.
Christian authority: obsession over people is demonic. You cannot see
with God's light. It will lead you into evil.
Christian authority: our hearts operate with love or hate. The fruits of
love are heavenly. The fruits of hate are hellish.
Christian authority: Peter who was ready to die with Christ (cf. Matt.
26: 33, 35; John 13: 37) could not stay awake in prayer with Christ
(cf. Mark 14: 37) and could not have peace in the face of threat (Matt.
26: 69-74; John 18: 10-11).
Christian authority: remember you may not understand what is not
your business (Cf. John 21: 20-23) so try to maintain your peace
towards everyone.
Christian authority: scandals will always come but a great harm is
Christian authority or any religion scandalizing worldly powers (Cf.
Rev. 17: 1-2).
Christian authority: seeing the good works of others should stir you
into doing more good works yourself (cf. Hebrews 10: 24). Do not
bring other people's works down or hurt the achiever because you have
the power to.
Christian authority: spy and you will continue to spy, investigate and
you will continue to investigate, pay money and you will continue to
pay money, compromise and you will continue to compromise, oppress
and you will continue to oppress, cover up and you will continue to
cover up . . . . Watch and pray or you will go off on a tangent.
Christian authority: stand by what is right always. If you do, you may
handle well the troubles that come from around you. If you don't, you
will never handle the lack of peace within you.
Christian authority: teach what Christ taught and do as Christ did
and crowds will naturally follow you because humans are attracted to
goodness.
Christian authority: tend the sheep but curiosity, spying, information
gathering . . . can turn you into a foolish tyrant like Pharaoh, an
envious persecutor like King Saul, a sacrilegious demoniac like Jezebel,
a maniacal destroyer like Herod or something other than Christian
shepherd. Tend the sheep but rely on the Holy Spirit who alone teaches
what flesh and blood cannot reveal and always with peace.
Christian authority: the Church is ruled by the Holy Spirit and
relies on grace by which it operates. You should not rely on research,
intellectualism, investigation, cultism, militarism, business, and worldly
processes good or evil that Satan can manipulate.
Christian authority: the Devil can use you to dwell on trivia,
non-essentials, dividers, peripherals, additions, alternatives, and things
that are matters of freedom and choice, with which you are prepared
to strangle and enslave.
Christian authority: the Devil just needs you in one crucial position Ð
playing God, and the Devil will strive to get you there.
Christian authority: to obsess for information about and control over
fellow Christians is anti-Christian because each person has the Holy
Spirit and a Guardian Angel.
Christian authority: to please your ego, you may lean on worldly power
but to follow Christ and to please Christ, you must be detached from
worldly power and be familiar with your Christian endowment.
Christian authority: what kind of power is yours: good or evil, spiritual
or worldly, salvific or scandalous, miraculous or spectacular, Christian
or Anti-Christian? What are the fruits of your power?
Christian authority: what we have evolved in religious institutions
(good and fruitful as they may be) can sometimes limit you, make you
powerless, uninformed, isolated, bound . . . . Be careful not to seek
un-Christian means of compensation. Prefer to right the wrongs.
Christian authority: when your interest in anyone becomes clandestine,
indecent, invasive, obsessive, molesting, disturbing, oppressive . . . you
are demonic and you need deliverance to regain your focus on Christ
and your own life.
Christian authority: who authorized you to be God? Who authorized
you not to be Godly?
Christian authority: worldly authority should not tell you how to tend
your sheep.
Christian authority: you are worried about somebody's fault. Check:
how can you be a better person so that you do not lead anyone to have
such a fault?
Christian authority: you can always know a good heart. Encourage good
hearts, don't crush them. Good hearts need no testing because by their
fruits you shall know them (cf. Matthew 7: 15-17).
Christian authority: you can never help a person you are obsessed about;
you can only disturb and destroy them.
Christian authority: you can't get peace from exercising control. You
will be in control when you have peace.
Christian authority: you claim to understand God and his plan for each
and every person? This is a divine prerogative (Cf. John 21: 22).
Christian authority: you do not have to follow institution or
establishment blindly. You should live in the spirit, walk in the spirit,
pray in the spirit within institution, within establishment (cf. Gal 5:
25; Eph. 6: 18; 4: 1-6; Rev. 2: 7). You are not made for institution or
establishment. Those exist for you.
Christian authority: you may not always know how God wants to bring
things to fulfillment. Sometimes you need the peace of not knowing
and the wisdom to let go.
Christian authority: you should promote freedom and peace in worship
and fellowship so that no one is hurt by others because they come to
Church.
Christian authority: you want Christians to live a life of have not,
be not, do not. It is best that you leave authority to people who
are normal.
Christian authority: you want people to feel your power, to know you
are in control, to suffer your influence, to fear you . . . You are clearly not
Christian (cf. Matthew 20: 25-26; 12: 30; 18: 1-5). You are antichristian
(cf. 1 John 4: 3).
Christian authority: your mission is not to follow other religions and
ideologies, whatever their means or tactics or achievements; your mission
is to follow Christ.
Christian disciplinarian: sexual segregation is often irrelevant for
common people. We must promote harmony, peace, and love.
Christian disciplinarian: so somebody has a fault which you have taken
it upon yourself to correct with force and might, destroying the person's
life in the process. You certainly do not have the love or wisdom of
Christ (cf. Luke 9: 54-55DRV; Mark 4: 26-29; Matt. 13: 29).
Christian disciplinarian: you are really tough on someone. Is it really
for the good of the church or to satisfy your own dispositions?
Christian disciplinarian: you think you are exercising your rights as an
apostle, but are you placing obstacles to the Gospel of Christ?
Christian disciplinarian: you want to change people at your own pace,
in your own way, perhaps in your own life span that may be recipe
for disaster.
Christian disciplinarian: you want to change people to your own
satisfaction, as your own achievement, to your own glory. First,
discipline your vanity.
Christian institutions that run their mission on spying, surveillance,
and intrigue do not follow the way of Christ nor have the grace of the
Holy Spirit (cf. Mark 13: 11; Luke 12: 12; John 14: 26). They are a
human enterprise.
Christian of power: for every evil you are responsible for, you must try
to make full restitution because when you die, your works go with you
(Cf. Rev. 14: 13; John 5: 29; Luke 16: 19-31; Matt. 12: 36; Rev 20:
11-15; James 2: 24; 1Peter 2: 12).
Christian relationship based on scheming, plotting, and intrigue is a
communication of distrust, fear, and many evils. We can deal with one
another with simplicity, openness, and naturalness.
Christian servant: check your passion and you have checked your action.
Christian service: if you don't meet people at the point of their needs
(Matt. 25: 35-36), how would they meet Christ; how would they
experience Christ (Mathew 25: 40)?
Christian service: is not just about Ôthe poor' It is about ministering
to people's needs according to our capacities and responsibilities (cf.
Matt. 25: 44-45) and this should never be inconvenient (Matthew
26: 10, 12) and may be what is important at the end of our time (cf.
Matt. 25: 31).
Christian zealot: Power is made perfect in weakness (2 Cor. 12: 9).
Christian zealot: be careful what you do in the name of Christ
(cf. Matt. 7: 22-23).
Christian zealot: don't blame superiors for any wrongdoing of yours
because you are always free and responsible, and nobody can steal your
conscience without your permission.
Christian zealot: examine your state of mind frequently. Mania?
Insecurity? Fear? Anger? Ambition? Embarrassment? Vengeance? Envy?
Resentment? Confusion? Anxiety? Rivalry? Hate? We always have a
driving force which does not have to be evil.
Christian zealot: the best you can do is not to fight and crush and
destroy but to lead, enlighten, uplift, enliven, encourage, motivate,
teach, reach, cure, and above all pray.
Christian zealot: the mind is a flux of good and evil. Make sure you
have a Christianized mind.
Christian zealot: when you feel that God has sent you to watch, to
monitor, to direct, to control, to punish, to destroy, to annihilate, to
eliminate . . . another human being, try to clarify which god before you
embark on your mission.
Christian zealot: when you hurt people, don't fault their anger and
reactions. Apologize and try and regain trust.
Christian zealot: you do not have a right to do violence to your neighbor
(cf. Sir. 10: 6; Matt. 7: 1-2; Matt. 5: 38-39). You have a duty to do
violence to yourself (cf. Matt. 7: 5; 18: 8-9).
Christian zealot: you have abandoned everything, you practice
asceticism fully, you sacrifice all, or so you think. Make sure you have
real life because dead people are of no use; they may just pollute.
Christian zealot: you really do not want to suffer; shying away from
real mission in the world and finding mission in haunting your fellow
Christians.
Christian zealot: your religion in your profession may be the best thing
your life needs or the worst thing the world needs. What is good for
you does not have to be bad for others.
Christian: a tithe of ten percent of the payment you get from serving
Satan's reign on earth is offered to God for what? Christians serve God's
reign in their ordinary affairs by being good and this is a far greater
contribution than money.
Christian: abuse of persons in the name of religion however the
abuse (authoritarian, behavioral, verbal, or sexual); whatever the abuse
(molestation, torment, irritation, sabotage, oppression, suppression,
harassment, persecution, disturbance, ridicule) is a product of
demonic conviction.
Christian: are you preparing the Bride of Christ or are you tarnishing
her?
Christian: are you working miracles, moving mountains, and driving
out demons in your own life and in your living?
Christian: as salt and pepper enhance taste, so peace and joy enhance
beauty. We cannot have a better world without them.
Christian: as you advance in life, in your career or business, in
establishing a home and family, are you establishing the Reign of God
or are you promoting the power of Satan?
Christian: avoid cultism. A cult exists for itself, its power, its wealth,
and its people.
Christian: avoid punishing. It is hardly ever in proportion to any offence.
It is generally a measure of our own anger, envy, hatred, embarrassment,
or other negative feelings.
Christian: avoid redundant effort. Don't try to save souls in heaven,
people who are moving on by God's grace, who already relate to God
and are trying to serve God. Don't avoid the tough ground that really
needs breaking.
Christian: avoid redundant effort. There is real challenge in the world
and it is not your fellow Christians; they need your prayer and example,
if not support.
Christian: be the protagonist of a Godly nation where Christians, Jews,
Moslems, etc., are encouraged to be Godly rather than to be hating and
destroying one another.
Christian: beware of forming Christian associations that are rich and
powerful but spiritually devoid and depending on human enterprise
to survive.
Christian: beware that tradition, customs, paradigms, ideologies, etc.,
do not stifle your spirit.
Christian: beware you are not carried by delusions that you are better
than others, that you need to punish others, that you must control other
people's lives, that you know what is best for others.
Christian: can people call you someone endowed with the spirit of
God? (cf. Genesis 41: 38).
Christian: carry this name, Christian, with awe. Don't misuse it, don't
abuse it, don't blaspheme it.
Christian: Christ has taught us not to rely on evil and to overcome evil.
If you want to revert to using evil or if you want to do something vicious
or bad, at least talk to God about it first (cf. Judith 9: 13-14).
Christian: Christ is working in our midst. Satan too is trying and you
should make this vain.
Christian: Christian charismas must emanate from your life. If you are
easily deceived, you are not visionary. If you speak falsehood, you are not
prophetic. If you lack virtue, you are not an ambassador of Christ. If you are
selfish, you are not a steward of God's goodness. You do not need to say you
are Christian because you are known as Christian (Cf. Mathew 5: 16).
Christian: compassion is contagious and constructive, so is affection, so
is respect, so is generosity, so is laughter . .. . Do not dampen positive
feelings; support them, promote them, and spread joy.
Christian: dealing with the Devil within the church is perhaps the
greatest battle on earth.
Christian: do not hide your wisdom; give it appropriately (Cf. Sirach
4: 23-2; Proverb 23: 25; 29: 18).
Christian: do not use your authority or work for power games. Serve
with love. Serve to give peace. Serve to enhance life.
Christian: do the right thing no matter what seems to be at stake, to
be gained, or to be lost.
Christian: do what God places in your heart to do. It may not be
appreciated by these people, in this place, at this time. But other people,
in other places at other times and even generations, may come to be
blessed by it.
Christian: do not play games with Satan or devilish persons or devilish
institutions. Fight or flee.
Christian: do not use the law to satisfy your ego. Pray to know when
and how to apply the letter of the law or the spirit of the law.
Christian: don't abandon your parents (Cf. Proverbs 23: 25). As they
were happy you were born in their arms, be happy if they die in your
arms, under your caring.
Christian: don't get used to the poor, the sick, and the needy around
you or in your care.
Christian: don't be on the other side of spiritual battle, doing evil rather
than doing good.
Christian: don't go on continually in a see nothing say nothing do
nothing mode. Sometime you may be the only one that sees, sometime
you may be the only one that can say something, and sometime you
may be the only one that can do something. Don't miss your times.
Christian: don't play God. You cannot think of everything and you will
create a mess that you will be the first to run away from.
Christian: enjoying power over people using Christian status makes
you altogether spiritually powerless.
Christian: establish God's reign in your life.
Christian: even if your view is perfect, you have no right to deprive
people of their freedom and choices.
Christian: evil anger and evil vengeance do not stop evil spirits. Nothing
evil stops evil spirits. Be holy.
Christian: evil passions such as hate, envy, conceit, vengeance, and
covetousness tend to lead you to misunderstand truth, misinterpret
revelation, and mistake reality.
Christian: evil spirits curious, meddling, manipulating, disturbing,
molesting, confusing, menacing, obstructing, obsessing, restless,
devouring . . . should be rebuked if you want to live fully and be
fruitful.
Christian: examine yourself daily by asking: What good did I do to
anyone? What evil did I do to anyone?
Christian: fear is contagious and destructive, so is anger, so is vengeance,
so is hatred, so is gloom . . . . Hold your peace in the face of negative
feelings and don't propagate them but promote peace.
Christian: fear of the powerful should not make you ignore God and
his commandments.
Christian: finish one good, move on to another good, then others, and
others, till you die.
Christian: firmly establish your peace with God daily through prayer
and you will have peace always, whatever comes, wherever you are,
whatever you do.
Christian: for the love of a leader, for the love of a clan, for the love of
a principle, for the love of a cause, for the love of a mission, for the love
of money, for the love of power, will your opus be rejected by Christ?
(Cf. Luke 13: 26-28; Matthew 8: 9-12; 13: 41-42, 52; 24: 48-51).
Christian: for you, if there is money in it and no salvation in it, there
is no point in it.
Christian: forgiveness is difficult to teach. Forgiveness can be done, and
this is how people can know it.
Christian: give life. In every way, give life. What better good can you
do with your life?
Christian: give what Christ gave peace, joy, knowledge, love, healing,
deliverance, sanity, freedom, friendship, nourishment, relief, life and
you will never be vain in giving.
Christian: greater is the One who is in you than the one who is in the
world (cf. 1 John 4: 4; Eph. 2: 1-5).
Christian: have peace in yourself, have peace toward every human being
no matter how disagreeable, and respond with peace in everything.
Christian: how sacred is your heart? Jesus wants us to have a good heart
from where virtues flow, a free heart that operates cheerfully, a universal
heart that loves even enemies.
Christian: how you do things, even good things, shows what is in
your heart: love or hate, sincerity or falsehood, joy or gloom, envy or
concord, peace or war, light or darkness, freedom or bondage, humility
or conceit . . . .
Christian: ideology can make you rash and unfair towards those who
differ. That is not Christian.
Christian: if the things you do for Christ cannot be brought to the open
(Cf. Matthew 11: 3-6; 26: 55; Luke 13: 32; John 10: 25, 32; 1Tim 5:
25), who are you really following?
Christian: if we do not relate everything we do in life to God, perhaps
we have believed in God in vain.
Christian: if you always look in the right direction, you will keep making
right decisions.
Christian: if you are ever persecuted by non-Christians (Buddhists,
Jews, Moslems . . . or ideologists) because of your Christian choices,
show Christian forgiveness, a power of Christian grace.
Christian: if you are familiar with your Christian qualities, your
Christian endowment, and your Christian potencies, you will have no
need for evil or for the powers of evil.
Christian: if you are good and do something good, you may find
people who would hate you and punish you harmfully before they give
themselves a chance to catch up with you spiritually.
Christian: if you don't carry the cross, you don't carry victory against
Satan and satanic agents.
Christian: if you don't enjoy peace, you don't know Christ; if you don't
experience joy, you don't serve Christ; if you don't bear fruit, you don't
love Christ.
Christian: if you lend yourself to un-Christian ways, the Devil will
surely use you.
Christian: if you try to make others suffer what you are suffering,
because you are suffering, to feel accompanied in your suffering, you
have confused love with hatred.
Christian: if you understand what God wants of you, do not fear those
who oppose you or offer you something better to do (cf. Matt. 26:
8-9).
Christian: if your work routinely involves lies, deception, pretension,
cheating, theft, sabotage, vandalism, oppression, injustice, hatred,
strife . . . are you really serving God even if you think you are?
Christian: in the face of power, would you change your God; would
you change your King (cf. Matthew 4: 8; John 19: 14-15)?
Christian: in a fast, competitive world, you do not always need to
move fast or slowly; you always need to move with discernment, with
prudence, with virtue, and this determines your pace.
Christian: in the name of Jesus, you have power over various forms of evil:
spiritual, personal, natural, social, bodily. This is a promise of Christ (cf.
Mark 16: 17-18). This is the sacrament of faith (cf. Mark 16: 17).
Christian: in the work you do, be it research, administration, business,
academics, pastoral care, hospitality . . . do not lend yourself to satanic
ways Ð molestation, obsession, temptation, oppression, or dominion.
Your relationship with people, if it is Christian, cannot be evil.
Christian: inject all the good you can into your environment, into
your work, into your relationships, with love, with gentleness, with
understanding, and with respect.
Christian: institutionalization can degenerate into unhelpful routine.
Routine can cause stagnation, insensitivity, degeneration, corruption,
passivity, sterility, impotence, complacency, inertia . . . . Sometimes you
need to flex the way you pray, do things, relate, work, etc., so that you
keep living, stay healthy, and bear fruit.
Christian: is the audacity with which you punish someone for not
following your principles really the weakness of hate?
Christian: it does not matter what you have to bear for Christ for God's
sake: a stumbling block, shame, punishment, ridicule. Remain in God's
hands and he will make everything profitable for you.
Christian: it is alright to look up to God for your needs and for reward
(Cf. Psalm 123: 1-2) and Jesus encourages us to do so (Cf. Matthew
6: 9-11, 30; 7: 7-11; Mark 11: 24; Luke 18: 7; Mathew 11: 5, 28) and
that is the virtue of hope. We are vulnerable creatures on earth, not
like the angels in heaven who worship God disinterestedly and without
any needs.
Christian: it is desirable to be rich but let us go the way of justice
to prosperity, the way of harmony to prosperity, the way of peace
to prosperity, the way of love to prosperity, the way of wisdom to
prosperity.
Christian: John the Baptist in his wilderness had nothing, not even the
Synagogue to go to and eventually not even his head. The price of truth
can be great but never deny others the truth.
Christian: learn to deal spiritually with people who mean to waste
your time, spoil your works, drain your resources, mess with your life,
disturb your relationships, upset your mindÉ.when you discern their
madness.
Christian: life without love is no life and love without life is no love.
To keep living, keep loving. To keep loving, keep living.
Christian: like your Father God, be slow to anger and abounding in
love (cf. Psalm 145: 8).
Christian: live above evil. Be transformed into good.
Christian: love God. What better use can you make of your heart?
Christian: love your neighbor; love your enemy. There is nothing no
donation, no sacrifice, no suffering, no service, no labor that can better
open the door of Heaven to you. Don't live your life hurting people.
Don't reach your death to reap your own pain.
Christian: love, joy, and peace are the characteristics of a Christian, your
means of evangelization, your tickets into human hearts.
Christian: Mafioso is not Christ's way of shepherding. Christ prayed
and promoted freedom. Christians using games, intrigues, sabotage,
vandalism . . . of persons, places, and things in the name of mission
are not true shepherds (cf. Galatians 3: 3).
Christian: make good use of your health, and time, and talents.
Christian: make sure you are not doing the work of Satan, The Thief,
who comes only to steal and slaughter and destroy (John 10: 10).
Respect people's lives: their privacy, their intimacy, their dignity, their
freedom, their rights, their time, their possessions, their works, their
name, their image . . . . Respect is an aspect of love.
Christian: mankind is in bondage with evil. Like Christ, give truth,
liberating truth, but you yourself must first accept reality, must first
seek truth.
Christian: many things are the will of God. Discern each moment
what pleases God (cf. Matt. 26: 6-13; Luke 10: 29-37; Luke 10: 38-42;
Romans 12: 2).
Christian: may we be always doing what God wants, what is pleasing
to God, what is commanded by God, what is acceptable to God, what
is permitted by God, what is ordained by God, what can be blessed by
God, what can be rewarded by God . . .
Christian: most things we do in life (work, establishing a home, having
children, acquiring property) come naturally or with little effort
compared to gaining virtue and bearing spiritual fruits. Don't get carried
away with only easier things.
Christian: never be proactive for religious matters if you are not
prayerful. The Devil will use you delightfully unless you pray not just
programmed prayer, but with a real relationship with God.
Christian: never do anything, never get anything, the evil way.
Christian: never take a bribe to influence your duties (Cf. Ex. 23: 8;
Dt. 16: 19).
Christian: never undermine the work of truth. Truth sets people free
from their troubles and the causes of their troubles and helps then avert
future troubles.
Christian: no matter how evil or discouraging things may get, try not
to stop making effort to be good, to make progress, and to bear fruit.
God is with you.
Christian: obey God otherwise the more you look, the less you see;
the more you sow, the less you reap; the more you labor, the less you
gain . . . . of eternal value.
Christian: once you give your life to serve in a team, beware you
do not settle into useless conformity, inertia, lukewarmness, sinful
compromise, cowardice, despair, resignation, blind subservience,
subjugation, ignorance, naivet, stupidity . . . your salt must not go
flat (Cf. Matthew 5: 13).
Christian: only God should see everything. When you pry into another
person's affairs, don't be surprised that you become a monster: hating,
envying, angry, dangerous, vicious, attacking, persecuting, destroying,
restless, ridiculous, blind . . . . Beware of folly.
Christian: only prayer can help you distinguish between any vision or
delusion that you may have about yourself or about another person. We
are very easily influenced by evil spirits when we are not close to God.
Christian: only the Devil can convince you to do evil. When you have
such conviction, examine your relationship with God.
Christian: ordering your fellow Christians to sin or do evil is like your
own damnation (cf. Matt. 18: 6; 26: 24; Matt. 5: 19-20).
Christian: peace is not control. You cannot impose peace. You can have
peace. You can let others have peace.
Christian: power, dominance, and control are not what will make you
change the world. No matter who is in charge, if you do not give peace,
joy, and love, we do not have a better world.
Christian: queer Christianity all suffering, no pleasures; all tribulations,
no victory; all losses, no gains.
Christian: religion should not make you dysfunctional by just praying,
hoping, waiting. Rather it should make you powerfully functional faith
and works, faith that works.
Christian: religious conviction, religious sentiment, and religious zeal
have destroyed many lives. Think well about what you do to others in
the name of religion no matter how good, how proper, or how sane it
may seem.
Christian: remember not everyone who says Lord, Lord (Cf. Matthew
7: 21-22; 25: 10-12) is pleasing to Christ. Neither piety without
virtue nor service without virtue is for God, of God. It is just for the
emotions.
Christian: respect freedom even as you do good things and you see evil
being done, hold your peace (Cf. Matthew 13: 24-30).
Christian: respect freedom, promote freedom, don't be a predator, don't
be a harasser, not even to gain vocations.
Christian: respect is charity. Don't presume you can just barge into
somebody's life, run all over a person's affairs, or treat a person according
to your power.
Christian: seek God's blessings, enjoy God's blessings, spread God's
blessings. Do not let the Devil make you think they are not for you or
not for someone.
Christian: seek what is yours and God will always help you. Be greedy
and you are on your own.
Christian: serve God as He wants you to serve him. Do not make a
mistake about that and your life will be priceless and fruitful.
Christian: serve God peacefully and joyfully and whether you suffer to
get things done or you suffer because you got things done, keep serving
peacefully and joyfully.
Christian: serve institutions and establishments well but if you are too
time-table bound, paradigm stuck, ideologically arrested, authority
dependent, reward orientated you will miss a lot in life, especially the
promptings of the Holy Spirit (cf. Luke 10: 29-37; Matthew 15: 16;
15: 27; 23: 1-3, 9; 26: 7-9, 26: 14-16; Mark 3: 27; Luke 18: 10-14;
16: 15; John 6: 45).
Christian: serving the reign of God is not like chasing the goods of
this world where we seek to labor where there is more reward. To serve
God, you just have to be yourself and do the things he made you to
do, whatever the reward, temporal or eternal.
Christian: shying away and being uninvolved in affairs of the world is
stupid. Be there and be salt and light and leaven in everything.
Christian: some matters, good or evil, cannot be diagnosed, investigated,
researched, studied, discovered, reasoned, philosophized . . . because
they are supernatural realities or phenomena. Do not go on with
vain human effort. Ask God for discernment, wisdom, supernatural
knowledge, revelation, understanding (cf. Eph. 1: 17) and everything
will be clear to you.
Christian: sometimes the last thing we do is the first thing we should
have done. This often happens with prayer.
Christian: spend yourself well in prayer and you will spend yourself
fruitfully in everything else.
Christian: spiritual direction is not a forced role and not a role for just
anybody boss, friend, colleague, associate, mentor, relative, neighbor,
etc. To try to use anyone to direct a person in their spiritual struggles is a
lack of wisdom and may be just an effort to exert one's will and control.
Christian: spread The Gospel but don't be surprised by any anti-Christ
opposition.
Christian: teach what Christ taught. Don't worry about it not
working.
Christian: technology is attractive and powerful but don't neglect the
Holy Spirit, The Most Powerful.
Christian: the Babylonian-type corruption (Rev. 18: 3) is a natural mess
of an awkward marriage of Church and State and the resultant favor for
favor and cover for cover. Caesar and God are not the same level.
Christian: the Church is not a mafia and if you treat it like a mafia
and serve it like a mafia, you are antichristian; just what Satan needs.
Watch and pray.
Christian: the devil is restless. Whatever you do in life, you always have
to keep sending off evil interference and keep weakening the forces
of evil, by being good. Try to do what is right always and they will be
limited in what they can use against you.
Christian: the Devil possesses persons, institutions, causes, systems . . . .
There is nothing that cannot be used for evil. Watch and pray and do
not be used for evil.
Christian: the Gospel is the best book you can read.
Christian: the group effect can crush good consciences. Even in a team,
be free and conscientious.
Christian: the more successful your work for God's reign, the greater the
envies that hang over you, the greater the predators, the saboteurs, the
greed, the hate, the rivalries, the accusations, that hang over you (Cf.
Rev. 12). Do not let such emotions emanate from you in turn.
Christian: the people of today are the same people in the Gospels wanting
relief, seeking deliverance, needing blessing, expecting healing, groping
for knowledge . . .
Christian: the Reign of God in your life is what you need to work for
(Cf. Mark 9: 1).
Christian: the support of the rich or powerful should not make you
ignore God and his commandments.
Christian: theology without humanity is akin to insanity. Be religious
and humane.
Christian: there are many wrongs and evils in the world but if you are
in your place and you do all the good you can continually, you will be
helping to solve the problem.
Christian: there is no greater creature than Mary, Our Mother, and
she shows us the virtue of hope (Luke 1: 46-55). We must depend on
God and his blessings.
Christian: to be unhappy that people have joy and peace is strange; to
be pleased that people have sufferings and sorrows is stranger; to confuse
the Cross of Christ with sadism is strangest.
Christian: to have a refined character, a sanctified soul, a victorious
spirit, a fruitful life . . . is not easy. It is the constant work of a lifetime.
Avoid presumption and keep getting better through prayer.
Christian: under the Cross, you will survive; under the Cross, you will
live; under the Cross, you will thrive - without being evil and without
doing evil, all the days of your life.
Christian: unless you want to start a war, do not contend with
demoniacs. A demoniac is dominated by an evil spirit whose only
mission is to accomplish evil.
Christian: until you learn to seek your satisfaction from God and not
from the Devil, you will never be a fulfilled person, no matter who you
are or what you have.
Christian: use the gifts and blessings God has given you to live a good
life and serve the reign of God.
Christian: use your mind for good, use your hands for good, use your
feet for good, to serve God and humans, not just to serve a cult or
mafia or syndicate that is possessed by Satan and expects you to do
evil blindly.
Christian: we are born of Judaism but we are beyond Judaism; we have
seen the Messiah (cf. John 1: 40-41, 48-49; Mark 9: 2-8); we have seen
Redemption (cf. John 1: 36; Luke 22: 19-20); we have seen . . . (cf.
John 12: 40; 2 Cor. 3: 16-18) and we have the full force of the Holy
Spirit behind us, within us, the force of Love (cf. John 16: 13; Acts 2:
17; 1 Cor. 12: 13).
Christian: we are not angels or related to God as angels. With all the
evils, pains, and threats in the world, we must think of God's reward
and be encouraged by the hope of such reward (Cf. Matthew 25: 21,
34; 1Cor. 2: 9).
Christian: we can make the third millennium blessed with the peace
of Christ.
Christian: we humans are not disinterestedly related to God on earth.
The theological virtues of faith, hope, and love relate us to God.
Christian: whatever authority or powers on earth that you serve, secular
or religious, make sure you are not displeasing God.
Christian: whatever you are doing to your neighbor, can God call it
love?
Christian: whatever you want to achieve or stop, would you steal, would
you destroy, would you kill, would you be evil or would you be a person
of faith, of hope, of love?
Christians: we cannot drive out Satan under Satan. Any dominion of
evil in our lives makes us less of miracle workers.
Christian: when Church presumes and assumes the authority to meddle
with your private life or State presumes and assumes the authority to
meddle with your religious life, or both connive to do everything, then
you must remind Church to follow Christ and State to follow justice.
Christian: when Satan sees how effectively you serve God, he will seek
to turn you into his own servant. Watch and pray as your mission
progresses.
Christian: when you are about to accomplish something that is really
good for the reign of God, you will be confronted by the devastating
beast of massive hate and envy (cf. Rev. 12: 1-6). Have faith in God's
protection of both you and your works.
Christian: when you are doing God's will, you can face any challenge.
Christian: when you find yourself justifying any evil you do to
someone, check if your understanding of the person is good and if your
understanding of life is good.
Christian: when you go to Church, remember that you and every other
person have your own peculiarities, good and evil. Keep your focus on
worship in fellowship and you will be enriched and cause no harm.
Christian: when you know that your hands are full of blessing, you can
never really retire.
Christian: when your lack of freedom comes from Church, when your
confusions come from Church, when your infirmities come from
Church . . . you cannot afford to do nothing about Church.
Christian: when you see a work of Satan, check if your work is a work
of God; do your work, a work of God.
Christian: which self does your ego serve, the old or the new? (cf.
Romans 6: 6).
Christian: who authorized you to be God? Who authorized you not
to be Godly?
Christian: why be evil? Be truly Christian and demoniacs will know it
and tremble (cf. Mark 1: 24; 3: 11; 5: 7).
Christian: why be overwhelmed by the powerful when you have a
guardian angel (Matt. 18: 10-11).
Christian: you are in a hurry to build your mission, your ministry, your
following, your apostolate. Beware to stay in God's hands prayerfully
and let him carry you at whatever pace he determines.
Christian: you are just doing your job and disturbing another person's
peace and joy? That is not an opus of God.
Christian: you are ready to take money from anyone, from anywhere, at
anytime, for anything, in any way. Are you following Christ or following
money? Watch and pray.
Christian: you can imitate saints but do not force your life to fit a known
saint's. Be free for Christ and you'll carry on Christianity.
Christian: you cannot always understand everything of life, especially
another person's life. Have faith in the Holy Spirit and in the Guardian
Angels and promote prayer.
Christian: you cannot be in every ministry without harming yourself
and harming others (cf. James 3: 1-2). Pray for discernment at each stage
in life and in each circumstance to know the best things for you.
Christian: you may find yourself serving others and helping others with
their needs and there is no-one to help you with your needs. Sometimes
life is like that. Keep giving and God will right every wrong.
Christian: you read about ancient saints, what they said and what
they did in their times and circumstances. You, in your time and
circumstances, what are you saying, what are you doing?
Christian: you want to deal with another person's demons without first
dealing with your own. You are a big joke amongst demons.
Christian: you would do anything, good or evil, for your mission, or
ministry, or following, or apostolate. Then it must be really yours, not
God's.
Christian: your Christianity should not make you obsessive, compulsive,
depressive, repressive, maniacal, or put you or any normal person into
a bad psychotic state. Christ gave health of body, mind, and spirit; so
should Christianity.
Christian: your goals, your interests, your means, your dispositions . . . .
are all summarized in this prayer: Your Kingdom come
(Cf. Matthew 6: 10).
Christian: your life can show the world what freedom can do, what love
can do, what grace can do, what peace can do . . . .
Christian: your life is short. Institutions, establishments, professions,
causes, governments, churches . . . all tend to last longer than human
life spans. Use your life wisely, serve wisely and do not blame others
for your choices.
Christian: your mission, to follow Christ, is the same as every Christian's,
but is different from every Christian's, living and dead because you
are different.
Christian: your spiritual gifts are for the reign of God, not to serve
earthly powers or merely for earthly gains. Beware of those who want
to use you wrongly.
Christian: your work: is it love, universal love? (Cf. Luke 6: 27, 32).
Christians reverting to evil are rich people who cannot enjoy their
wealth.
Church authority: try not to live under threat, try not to live in fear.
Christ's gift to you is peace. Christ's gift to you is joy.
Church crises? The gates of Hell will not prevail (cf. Matt. 16: 18).
Church hierarchy that indulges in worldly power loses moral clout and
becomes dumber, lamer, blinder . . .
Church in fellowship is like Heaven and reflects the peace and joy
and freedom and love and justice and life and security and glory of
Heaven.
Church is a foretaste of Heaven. Treat it as such.
Church is sacred and worship is sacred and the fellowship is sacred.
Those coming to Church with motives other than to worship or
fellowship are defiling and are a threat to the Church.
Church is so sacred, we must approach it with reverence and respect
worshippers.
Church should build up Christian lives not destroy them.
Church should never be a battle ground where you lie in wait for those
you hate or disagree with. Do not mar worship or fellowship with
tension, strife, or discord.
Church: appreciate, support, and be thankful rather than faulting and
people will keep getting better.
Church: do you go to Church to fellowship or to dominate, control,
repress, manipulate, exploit, disturb, oppress, antagonize, divide . . .
to unleash your dark side. Enjoy the light of fellowship, the light of
the Holy Spirit.
Church: experience of Church should not be evil. Beware of evils that
turn people away from Church.
Church: how do you encourage worship? How do you discourage
worship? How do you encourage fellowship? How do you discourage
fellowship?
Church: the hierarchy manipulated is no hierarchy. Let the victory of
Christ be seen in the leadership.
Church: why do you watch what people are offering when only God
can judge properly each person's gift (cf. Mark 12: 43-44).
Church: why strive for power over the congregation when what is needed
is your prayer and fellowship?
Church: worship is sacred and the fellowship is sacred; respect worship,
respect fellowship. Keep off mafia interests, keep off cult interests,
keep off ideological interests, keep off business interests, keep off State
interests, keep off all special interests that divide and distract from
worship and fellowship.
Church: you cannot serve the Church well without universal love.
Commitment of love.
Control is not characteristic of Christianity (Cf. Matthew 20:
25-26).
Daydreaming is not sensible.
Different gifts, different ministries, different works same Spirit, same
Lord, same God (cf. 1 Cor. 12: 4-6).
Discern what is of value (Phil. 1: 10).
Do all the good you can (cf. Gal. 6: 10; James 4: 17).
Do everything lovingly; thank God who works in you.
Do everything possible and ask for what is impossible.
Do good in good time.
Do not be intimidated by your opponents (cf. Phil. 1: 28).
Do not delay baptism (cf. John 3: 3, 5).
Do not despise prophesying (cf.1 Thess. 5: 20RSVCE).
Do not get angry when evil people do not appreciate your good works.
Satan arouses contempt, envy, savagery . . .
Do not give what is holy to dogs, or throw your pearls before swine,
lest they trample them underfoot, and turn and tear you to pieces
(Matt. 7:6).
350. Do not grow lazy (cf. Heb. 6: 12).
351. Do not judge by appearances (cf. Rom. 2: 28).
352. Do not labor for the food that perishes (cf. John 6: 27).
Do not prefer the praise of people to the glory of God (cf. John 12: 43;
Rom. 2: 29).
Do not quench the Spirit (1 Thess. 5: 19).
Do not seek glory from people (cf. 1 Thess. 2: 6).
Do not tear the new to patch the old (cf. Luke 5: 36).
Do what you can while you are fit for it.
Do what you can, God will do the rest.
Do whatever he tells you (John 2: 5).
Do whatever you can while you can.
Do your best for others even if others do their worst for you.
Don't accept or spread gossip about anyone even if they are factual.
Unless you relate to the victim personally, it is justice to keep your mind
free and your tongue still (cf. Sir. 11: 7; 19: 6).
Don't block your neighbor's way (cf. Acts 5: 38-39; Rom. 14: 13).
Don't keep the beggar begging (cf. Luke 6: 30; Sir. 29: 8-9).
Don't preserve your life uselessly (cf. Mark 8: 35; Luke 9: 24; 12: 4-5).
Don't try to do anything special to serve God without being yourself
as he made you.
Don't undermine another person's path God uses people in different
ways.
Don't wait till you have surplus to give (cf. Mark 12: 44).
Dynamism! Don't get bored.
Each one should be perfectly convinced she or he is understood.
Each one should feel loved.
Ego and heart work in irony. The greatest mistake you can make, the
most devastating mistake you can make, the most stupid mistake you
can make is failure to mind your own life, especially the evils within
you, while reaching others with your heart.
Ego: there are always problems in human life. When egos respond to
problems we may all get hurt and stuck. Problems need good hearts.
Ego: a sanctified ego can always give way to the heart. A sanctified heart
always includes the ego.
Ego: a satisfied ego thinks everyone is happy. A satisfied heart is so
because everyone is happy.
Ego: bless your ego and bless your heart. Love yourself and love your
neighbor (cf. Mark 12: 33).
Ego: it is good to know how to get what is best for you and it is good
to know how to do your best for others.
Ego: we love with our egos and our hearts but ego and heart do not
play the same role. Ego preserves me. Heart preserves all.
Ego: you have little to gain when you pray with your ego and everything
to gain when you pray with your heart, as a Christian (cf. Luke 18:
9-14; John 14: 14; 16: 23).
Ego: you may discover that God hardly uses your ego, but he always
needs your heart.
Ego: you will keep hurting other people's feelings if you do not use your
heart and don't expect others to use theirs.
Ego: your ego and heart can hardly work together. Ego works inwardly,
exclusively, conclusively. Heart works outwardly, inclusively, openly.
Ego: your ego and heart don't bear the same fruits. The fruits of ego
are limited in quality, in quantity, and in extent of influence. The
fruits of heart are never limited; their effect is a chain reaction, they
multiply exponentially, the paths of influence are unimaginably diverse,
extending far and wide, and returning home to bless (cf. Matthew 5: 8;
1 Corinthians 4: 5) or punish (cf. Romans 2: 5; Revelations 2: 23).
Ego: your ego is yours. Your heart is the world's. Which do you use
most?
Egoism and egotism are prophesied problems of the end times (cf. 2
Tim 3: 2). Be careful with business principles and power ideologies that
teach you to focus on yourself, your gains, your control of everything
and crushing of rivals and competitors (cf. Philip. 2: 3).
Egoism is behind the ideologically arrested because ideology is a great
source of power over people (cf. Matthew 23: 1-12).
Egoism or egotism in the altruist, the ascetic, the celibate, or
the philanthropist is most absurd and turns all these ideals into a
compendium of lies called hypocrisy.
Empathy more than sympathy (cf. Heb. 13: 3).
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above . . . from the Father
of lights (cf. James 1: 17).
Every moment is time for faith and time for reason.
Evil always draws us back but appears to move us forward.
Evil deceives.
Evil situations: pray, What good can I do?
Evil situations: you will resort to doing evil if you have no good to
offer.
Evil: do not play with evil, do not borrow evil. It will conquer you.
Evil: mind the evils within you. That is your sure way of sanctifying
the world.
Evil: to do good and be given evil in return, to do great good to others
and to be treated as trash or worse is painful evil but you should not
be surprised by it.
Evils come to you through the Devil's activities of temptation to make
you sin, torment to disturb you, obsession out of fear of you, oppression
to make you suffer, possession to use you, dominion to take over your
life . . . . By now you should have observed the workings of the principle
of evil.
Evildoers? Only God knows who is truly evil; don't be quick to judge
and condemn and punish.
Evildoers? There are no such things as Christian Devils. If you do evil
in the name of Christianity, reexamine your Christianity.
Faithful in little things, faithful in much (cf. Matt. 25: 21; Luke 16: 10).
Fall in love.
Fan into flame, the gifts God has given (cf. 2 Tim. 1: 6).
Fight! With prayer. With virtue.
Focus on Christ: his life, his words, his gifts chiefly the Eucharist
and Holy Spirit.
For me to live is Christ (cf. Phil. 1: 21).
For others, for Christ (cf. Matt. 25: 40).
For others: word, example, and prayer, and the greatest of these is
prayer.
For the things of God, holy shamelessness.
Force them to enter into God's banquet (cf. Luke 14: 23).
Forcing a person to change can be a great disservice; it is not fulfilling
(cf. Sir. 20: 3), let go and let God.
Forgive offenders (cf. Luke 17: 4).
Forgiveness: every priest administers the Sacrament of Reconciliation
but not every priest is personally capable of forgiveness. Priests can act
for Christ but better if they are as Christ.
Freedom: it is not for man to judge what others should give or do.
Freedom: people who give happily give fruitfully; people who give
grudgingly will despair.
Freedom is like money you have to spend. Money can be used to buy
good things or bad things. Use your freedom to attain glory.
Freedom: the freer, the more glorious.
Freedom: without freedom, you cannot be rich, materially or
spiritually.
Friend of all.
Full measure (cf. Luke 6: 38).
Gifts: Without prophecy the people become demoralized

Power: an irony of power is that every time you try to play God, you
end up playing the Devil; every time you try to force someone to do
the good you think they should be doing, you end up doing the evils
you should never do.

the Devil, if you use it for good or for evil, if you use it constructively
or destructively, if it leads you and those who obey you to Heaven or
to Hell.

always emanates from heart.

Will good and you will be good; will evil and you will be evil.
Will what God has given you and you will be the will of God in your
world.
Wise men still seek Jesus (Anon).
With God all things are possible (Mark 10: 27;1 cf. Luke 1: 37).
Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give
(Matt. 10: 8).
Without faith, it is impossible to please God (cf. Heb. 11: 6).
Without faith, we become sadists, saboteurs, cynics, pessimists,
obstacles, torment to those who do have faith.
Without knowledge even zeal is not good (Prov. 19: 2).
Without the Scriptures we are not fully equipped for good works
(cf. 2 T im. 3: 16-17).
Woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed
(Mark 14: 21).
Work for the salvation of all.
Work: O Christian, think if anything that has your name, your
signature, your contribution, . . . hallows God's name, conveys God's
love, is a product of virtue, is characteristic of Christ . . . .
Work: sometime you may be overwhelmed by what lies ahead of you.
Relax, pray, be in peace and then go on with courage.
Work? Cheerfully (cf. Rom. 12: 8).
You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation (cf. 1 Pet. 2: 9).
You are angry and think God should have done things differently. Tell
God your thoughts and see the difference.
You are the salt of the earth but what if salt goes flat? (cf. Matt. 5: 13;
Luke 14: 34).
You are your first student (cf. Rom. 2: 21-24).
You can tell a tree by its fruit (cf. Matt. 12: 33).
You must esteem every person (cf.1 Pet. 2: 17).
You must keep converting yourself and others.
You spy but you lack wisdom to cope with what you see and so you
end up restless, less sane, less healthy, less happy . . .
You want information and would ignore decency, respect, and love of
neighbor to get it. Well, you will know everything the Devil wants you to
know and then become everything the Devil wants you to become.
Young people: how easy it is to target youths, to covet youths, to enrol youths,
to use youths . . . . without regard for youth. Remember that youth is a
precious time of life upon which the rest of a person's life depends.
Your support of another person's spiritual journey could be godly,
could be demonic. Work on yourself before you decide to work on
another person.
Your support of another person's spiritual journey is simply presumptive
interference if it is not by the person's invitation or acceptance.
Your support of another person's spiritual journey: are you really
capable or just being a nuisance? Your best support is making your
own journey well.
Your support of another person's spiritual journey: never be
preoccupied, obsessive, curious, restless, controlling over anyone. Keep
your focus on God and your obedience.
Your light must shine before others (Matt. 5: 16).
Your outreach: to family, to friends, to neighbors, to strangers, to the
multitudes, to enemies, as in the Gospels.
Your relief of others ought not to impoverish you (cf. 2 Cor. 8: 12-13).
Your shepherding, directing, or supporting another person's spiritual
journey should be by prayer, conversation, connection, relationship,
honesty, sincerity, understanding, empathy, compassion, goodwill,
love never by intrigue, scheming, games, deceit, ambition, power,
covetousness, envy, resentment, ill will. Distinguish well between what
is of God and what is from your fallen nature or from Satan.
Your widow's mite is your everything (cf. Luke 21: 4).
Your mission: Love. Always aim to love. There is no greater goal. There can be no greater triumph.
Your mission: Love. Love is more important than profit, more important than success, more important than fame, more important than sex, more important than power, more important than wealth, more important than achievement. Better to obtain these through love. Better not to obtain these without love.
Your mission: Love. Love your enemy, love your persecutor, love your traitor, love your rival, love the difficult to love.
Your mission: Love. When you have universal love, you are Christ-like, Christian, salt of the earth, light of the world, leaven in the dough, salvation of the world.
Zeal: your zeal reflects your love for religion or love for God.
Zeal: your zeal without love is not Christian. Love works. Love works zeal unto glory. Zeal without love will reach a dead end.
Zeal: your zeal works for you, works for religion, works for God, or works for all.

Christian: sometimes the last thing we do is the first thing we should
have done. This often happens with prayer.
