Friday of the Eighteenth Week in Ordinary Time

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness;
for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.

[ARCHBISHOP VIGANO’S LETTER TO PRESIDENT TRUMP]

THE INVESTIGATIONS ALREADY UNDER WAY WILL REVEAL THE TRUE RESPONSIBILITY OF THOSE WHO MANAGED THE COVID EMERGENCY NOT ONLY IN THE AREA OF HEALTH CARE BUT ALSO IN POLITICS, THE ECONOMY, AND THE MEDIA. 

(me)

is not the investigation spoken of here the one that takes place in each person’s conscience which “is man’s most secret core, and his sanctuary”? 

[Today’s Scriptures]

“Nineveh is destroyed; who can pity her?
Where can one find any to console her?”

WE WILL PROBABLY FIND THAT IN THIS COLOSSAL OPERATION OF SOCIAL ENGINEERING THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE DECIDED THE FATE OF HUMANITY, ARROGATING TO THEMSELVES THE RIGHT TO ACT AGAINST THE WILL OF CITIZENS AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVES IN THE GOVERNMENTS OF NATIONS.

is it not God alone who has “decided the fate of humanity”?

R. It is I who deal death and give life.
“Learn then that I, I alone, am God,
and there is no god besides me.
It is I who bring both death and life,
I who inflict wounds and heal them.”

WE WILL ALSO DISCOVER THAT THE RIOTS IN THESE DAYS WERE PROVOKED BY THOSE WHO, SEEING THAT THE VIRUS IS INEVITABLY FADING AND THAT THE SOCIAL ALARM OF THE PANDEMIC IS WANING, NECESSARILY HAVE HAD TO PROVOKE CIVIL DISTURBANCES, BECAUSE THEY WOULD BE FOLLOWED BY REPRESSION WHICH, ALTHOUGH LEGITIMATE, COULD BE CONDEMNED AS AN UNJUSTIFIED AGGRESSION AGAINST THE POPULATION.

will not injustice, excessive economic or social inequalities, envy, distrust, and pride raging among men and nations constantly threaten peace? will we Catholics overcome these disorders by building up peace, or will we become and behave like a mob ourselves in order to save our lives?

Jesus said to his disciples,
“Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself,
take up his cross, and follow me.
For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it,
but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
