Given the public glorification of demons in the Catholic Church, organised by Vatican autorities which has led many souls to become ensnared in SIN, how can the faithful help Jesus rescue the souls that have been lost? 1) Genesis 4:9; Yahweh said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” He replied, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?” 2) Isaiah 40:6; A voice says, “Cry out!” And I say, “What shall I cry out?” — “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory is like the flower of the field.” 3) James 5:19-20; If any of you, my brothers and sisters, stray from the truth and another brings you back, know that whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and cover a multitude of sins 4) Isaiah 49:9; Say to the prisoners, “Come out,” and to those in darkness, “Show yourselves.” 5) Ezekiel 33:11 Say to them: “As I live, declares the Lord God, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn from their ways and live.

Angesichts der öffentlichen Verherrlichung von Dämonen in der katholischen Kirche, die dazu geführt hat, dass viele Seelen in die Sünde verstrickt wurden, wie können die Gläubigen Jesus dabei helfen, die verlorenen Seelen zu retten? 1) Genesis 4,9; Jahwe sprach zu Kain: „Wo ist dein Bruder Abel?“ Er antwortete: „Ich weiß es nicht. Bin ich der Hüter meines Bruders?“ 2) Jesaja 40,6; Eine Stimme spricht: „Rufe!“ Und ich sage: „Was soll ich rufen?“ – „Alles Fleisch ist wie Gras, und all seine Herrlichkeit ist wie die Blume des Feldes.“ 3) Jakobus 5,19–20; Wenn jemand von euch, meine Brüder und Schwestern, von der Wahrheit abirrt und ein anderer ihn zurückführt, so wisst: Wer einen Sünder von seinem Irrweg abwendet, der rettet dessen Seele vor dem Tod und deckt eine Vielzahl von Sünden zu. 4) Jesaja 49,9; Sagt zu den Gefangenen: „Kommt heraus!“, und zu denen, die in der Finsternis sind: „Zeigt euch!“ 5) Hesekiel 33,11 Sagt zu ihnen: ‚So wahr ich lebe, spricht Gott, der Herr: Ich habe kein …Mususu
Letter to the Philippians 1,20c-24.27a. Brothers and sisters: Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me life is Christ, and death is gain. If I go on living in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. And I do not know which I shall choose. I am caught between the two. I long to depart this life and be with Christ, (for) that is far better. Yet that I remain (in) the flesh is more necessary for your benefit. Only, conduct yourselves in a way worthy of the gospel of Christ.
Brief des Apostels Paulus an die Philipper 1,20ad-24.27a. Schwestern und Brüder! Ich erwarte und hoffe, dass Christus verherrlicht werden wird in meinem Leibe, ob ich lebe oder sterbe. Denn für mich ist Christus das Leben und Sterben Gewinn. Wenn ich aber weiterleben soll, bedeutet das für mich fruchtbares Wirken. Was soll ich wählen? Ich weiß es nicht. Bedrängt werde ich von beiden Seiten: Ich habe das Verlangen, aufzubrechen und bei Christus zu sein – um wie viel besser wäre das! Aber euretwegen ist es notwendiger, dass ich am Leben bleibe. Vor allem: Lebt als Gemeinde so, wie es dem Evangelium Christi entspricht!
Franciscan Father Ibrahim Faltas reflects on the tragedy in Gaza after a building previously damaged by an Israeli missile strike collapsed shortly after midnight on September 16. At least 21 people died. He focuses in 'L’Osservatore Romano' on a mother and child found dead in an embrace. Fr Faltas adds that "about 100 people remain beneath the massive piles of debris; more than 20 have already been pulled out, and over half of them are children."

BEWARE OF THAT EVIL YOU CANNOT SEE, BUT CAN FEEL.... Be careful with that kind of harm you cannot see, but can feel in the way someone speaks, in the judgmental look, in a heart that has stopped listening. It is not a lack of talent that brings someone down. Sometimes, it is an ego growing out of control, inflating silence and dimming the best parts of the soul. Arrogance… that false throne where someone believes they stand above others, forgetting that everyone, without exception, needs others to keep from falling. Conceit… the voice that says, “I know,” “I am worth more,” while closing doors that only humility can open. Overbearing behavior… it is not strength; it is fear in disguise. It is pushing others down so you won't feel small. It is empty power that builds nothing. Stubbornness… the kind of stubbornness that refuses to listen, pride that refuses to learn, eyes closed to the truth. And the most dangerous part… is not realizing it. Believing you are invincible while everything …Mususu
Leo XIV has not responded to an audience request for the Roman rite pilgrimage to Rome. The organisers of the pilgrimage “to the See of Peter” in late October requested a papal audience nine months ago, reports Edward Pentin on his Substack-Account. The request was made in a letter signed by two lay members of the organisation. It was personally delivered by Bishop Athanasius Schneider when he met Leo XIV last December. In the same letter, the organisers asked for permission to celebrate a Pontifical Mass at the Altar of the Chair in St Peter’s Basilica, as had happened several times in the past. After repeated pleas for a response, the Secretariat of State on 7 August declined permission for the Mass in St Peter’s Basilica. No reason was given for the decision. The Mass will instead be held at the Basilica of St Mary Major on 24 October. Bishop Athanasius Schneider will be the celebrant. Picture: summorum-pontificum.org, #newsWdcyeqmhus

Neturei Karta, the ultra-Orthodox Jews who reject Zionism An ultra-Orthodox Jewish group, Neturei Karta, rejects Zionism and refuses to recognise the State of Israel while marching under the Palestinian flag. This documentary traces its story from early 20th-century Jewish opposition to Zionism to today’s street protests in Jerusalem and New York. Told through Neturei Karta’s own voices and critical historians, the film revisits the Balfour Declaration, the assassination of Jacob Israel de Haan, the Holocaust-era split that gave birth to the movement, and the group's marginal but defiant stance after Israel’s creation in 1948. Facing police crackdowns, death threats and isolation from mainstream Jewry, Neturei Karta has deepened its ties with Palestinians - from the streets of Mea She’arim in West Jerusalem to Yasser Arafat’s inner circle and solidarity with Gaza under blockade. Its story challenges assumptions about Judaism, Zionism and resistance in a region locked in conflict. Original …Mususu

A 32-year-old man faces a felony charge of making terroristic threats in connection with social media threats against the headquarters of the Archdiocese of St. Louis. In one post, the man allegedly said that God instructed him to kill “everyone who walks into that church.” “The safety and well-being of the men and women who serve the Church are of the utmost importance, and we pray for an end to the hatred and threats of violence that have become so regrettably prevalent on social media,” said Brecht Mulvihill, the archdiocese’s executive director of communications.
