CHAPTER XXIII: TWO HEARTS OF WIT & WISDOM

Now comes the difficult subject--stepping on thin ice--where Angels fear to tread:

Our Lady said at Fatima: "More souls go to hell because of sins of the flesh, than for any other reason." Sins against the 6th Commandment.
Our Lady continued on this subject: "Styles and fashions will be introduced which will offend My Son very much." ('Consider the immodest attire'--! 'Her glory is her shame'--!)
Jesus said (St. Matthew 5/27): "You have heard that it was said to the ancients, 'Thou shalt not commit adultery.' But I say to you that anyone who so much as looks with lust at a woman has already committed adultery with her in his heart . . ." (So then: What right does it give anyone to be an occasion of sin in their outlandish indecent mode of dress?)
Our Blessed Mother also reminded us at Fatima, as we know this to be true from the Old Testament: "War is a punishment from God for sins." (Mainly due to the sins of the flesh?)

If one considers the submissive life-style in today's generation: PORNOGRAPHY--IMMODESTY OF DRESS--X-RATED PICTURES IN THEATERS & T.V.--ABORTION (again it's a sex-related offense)--DRUGS--SUGGESTIVE SHOWS WITH INNUENDOES AGAINST THE SIXTH COMMANDMENT--NEWS-PAPERS, MAGAZINES, THE PRESS TOTALLY DISREGARDING GOD'S LAWS--AS IF THERE IS NO GOD--:

It all adds up to:

How much can we offend Almighty God before He strikes back--as He has done in the past--allowing wars and calamities to chastise us all. Shall we remain silent about all these horrible offenses against our Creator

REMEMBER

Silence condones!

Silence approves!

Silence encourages!

Silence speaks very loudly!

Thank God there are still people who stand on their 'hind legs' and object to all these offenses and are diligently working in the service of Almighty God--the religious as well as faithful laymen and laywomen.

5. Our Lady at Fatima also said: "People must amend their lives and ask pardon for their sins. They must not offend Our Lord anymore for He is already too much offended!"

Quotes from 'The Glories of Mary':

‘I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head.’

(Gen. 3:15)

“Since the devil is the head of original sin, this head it was that Mary crushed: for sin never had any entry into the soul of this Blessed Virgin, which was consequently free from all stain.”

Saint Augustine

PSALM 71 SPEAKS TO MY HEART

Forsake Me Not When My Strength Is Spent

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame!
In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
incline your ear to me, and save me!

Be to me a rock of refuge,
to which I may continually come;
you have given the command to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.
For you, O Lord, are my hope,
my trust, O Lord, from my youth.
Upon you I have leaned from before my birth;
you are he who took me from my mother's womb.
My praise is continually of you.

I have been as a portent to many,
but you are my strong refuge.
My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all the day.
Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
forsake me not when my strength is spent.

For my enemies speak concerning me;
those who watch for my life consult together
and say, “God has forsaken him;
pursue and seize him,
for there is none to deliver him.”

O God, be not far from me;
O my God, make haste to help me!
May my accusers be put to shame and consumed;
with scorn and disgrace may they be covered
who seek my hurt.

But I will hope continually
and will praise you yet more and more.
My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,
of your deeds of salvation all the day,
for their number is past my knowledge.

With the mighty deeds of the Lord God I will come;
I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.

O God, from my youth you have taught me,
and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.

So even to old age and gray hairs,
O God, do not forsake me,
until I proclaim your might to another generation,
your power to all those to come.
Your righteousness, O God,
reaches the high heavens.
You who have done great things,
O God, who is like you?

You who have made me see many troubles and calamities
will revive me again;
from the depths of the earth
you will bring me up again.
You will increase my greatness
and comfort me again.

I will also praise you with the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praises to you with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed.

And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long,
for they have been put to shame and disappointed
who sought to do me hurt.
