confession- death of self

This is not an ”Apologetical entry”, but rather a sharing entry.
I am going to confession this saturday. EVery time I do, I feel terror, I love the grace, but the risk is also huge, and for this, every time, I die, and choose my master above me. If it were not for my knowledge of history, [...]

Adoring Death- loving death- truth-

I looked at the world, and questioned my God,
Where I searched or hoped, I saw only evil,
worst- goodness was shown false,
Icons, but wooden,
Words, but empty,
God, but the words of life,
I questioned my God,
Yet no longer,
I am not worthy to question him,
I am his object,
I carry my cross,
it is harder than death
In an evil world,
I live, [...]

Righteousness

“Should I be righteous or should I be evil?
Should I trust God with all my mouth, and accept his every word,
Should I complete every ceremony and memorize each word,
And preach to all the earth with empty words,
Yet, trust God to call me innocent, despite my evil deeds,
 
Should I praise the Lord with every song, and [...]

Humility

“We are told to accept heaven as children, not because we are to see ourself as less than we are, but because we are but children. We do not know where we are, or who we are, or right from wrong, or anything- until we realize that we know nothing above that of God’s voice. [...]

Condoms and the world’s way of promoting fornication

“It is amazing, because the world rejects God and fornicates, to the extent that we have the epidemic problem of  aids, they then appose those who appose condoms and create massive campaigns for condoms. Amazing, to protect us while committing one mortal sin, they want us to further reject God, via the sin of Onan, and [...]

It is the Latin translation of the [...]
