I am never able to approach FATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT without questioning my own motives. I am not looking for targets to complain about in this world but some do project themselves into my consciousness as does St John Paul II whose feast-day is today. I know that I am a sinner and that I have to look carefully at my own thoughts and words and try to judge them objectively. 

I do, however, take umbrage against the Church when it  acts as if it doesn't believe its own message. I am still convinced that the histrionics of St. John Paul were of no spiritual benefit to anyone except his own image of himself. I was particularly embarrassed by his attempts to stir up the adulation of the "youth" of England at Wembley Stadium. Mass hysteria cannot ever be a sure foundation for anything of lasting value.

The latest English addition to the highest ranks of Institutional Church Authority has for years skipped about preaching a doctrine of "love" in support of a "community of sinners" who celebrate their sin with "Pride". Jesus warns us all about the millstone that awaits those who teach others to sin. This Cardinal Preacher is responsible for his own sins but should as preacher preach the "Word of God" and not some human thinking that is produced out of the minds of the wise and the clever.

Today's Saint and tomorrow's Cardinal are both men as I am. I know that even though my lack of talent is obvious, it is very difficult for me to control my own pride. The help of the Holy Spirit ensures that I am getting better at doing so. Men like the Saint and Cardinal whose talents shine out, have a real difficulty in curbing pride for their superiority to most of us is obvious.

God's Truth, however is that Son, the only begotten, is the only perfect Man, although Mary is sinless she is still a creature. During his time on earth Jesus always forgave the sins of individuals even those of the soldiers who nailed him to the cross. Throughout the centuries, Popes Cardinals etc. have never acted as if they were aware that the only sinners ever condemned as a group by Jesus were not  "the Jews" but those holding in the world of the Old Testament Revelations, positions in human life now claimed by those in the Apostolic Succession. 

Dear Lord you know how much truth, if any, there is in my dissatisfaction. I am trying to avoid sin by honestly starting each day consciously in your presence with my mind soul open to receive your grace. I do not wish to condemn anybody. Indeed, how could I who know how willfully I have so often refused your grace? I would always prefer to be positive in my thoughts, prayers and petitions each morning, but today I am sure that those who "show-off" in their intellects and supposed piety are failing in their duty as priests who should be warning sinners to seek redemption not have excuses found for them. May Our Lady, your Mother who has zero knowledge of how depraved humans, who forsake her Son, can become, lead those who have accepted your Mercy to be able to join the Angels and Saints in the unity of Holiness that contains no shadow of dissent and pleads for our imperfect souls and the penitent in Purgatory to receive your Mercy with the thanks that needs eternity to express it fully. Lord heed my prayer and forgive us all even me who has so often sinned. Amen

Sometimes when I begin my day I feel that I am on the right path to becoming the end that God created me to be.

Today St Paul tells us that we were under God's anger. I do not want to think that it is possible for FATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT to be subject to any negativity at all about the creation that is the product of Divine Love.

St Paul knows that we are all alive in our "sensual bodies" which in these times we know are determined by our DNA and the "I" which comes to us by ..... 

If I say "chance" 

I am denying the "freedom" that Adam had to obey or not to obey for the "I" that we all have is determined by the human culture into which we are born. Adam and Eve were direct creations who stood naked and ashamed in the sight of God. 

If I say by the "will of God" 

I am again denying our "freedom" for there has never been anyone, except for Jesus, who decided for himself where and when to have his being and birth.

Jesus makes it clear that our purpose in life is not to build up material wealth. In fact, he tells us that the material of the Universe is a distraction and that it is to caring for our unseen spiritual being that we need to devote our lives on Earth. God wanted Adam & Eve to chose to share paradise with him.

Our Father who still knows each of us as completely as he knew Adam and Eve in the first days of our times wants us to accept his will for us as the only objective of our being. That is why the psalmist can sing "How good is the Lord to us, Eternal is his merciful Love, He is faithful from age to age" and Jesus tells us "watch and be on your guard against avarice of any kind." 

The "any kind" must  include even for spiritual favours that are not ours to win but which we have to accept in humility that does not display itself by accepting office yet claim superiority to its worldly display. Like Pope like Cardinal!

Dear Lord, You know that as man I think that I can have a rational understanding of your purpose  but am never going to comprehend your being. In fact to understand myself is often beyond my capacity. You created me to know, love and serve and to never disparage, despise or offend my neighbour for he too is an equally created soul that belongs to you. Let the eyes of my understanding be opened by your grace to accept that FATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT can be known only when we remove the last vestiges of human pride from our souls to become the "perfect me" who can join with Mary, Angels and all Saints in the response that is the creation of your love, perfect prayer. Amen

When we read the scriptures we are connected with the eternal present that is God's Being. In the real-time of the world, the mystery of the "Suffering Servant" is way before the real-time of  the mystery of Jesus. It is not so for the Eternity of God.

Superstitious man has always tried to predict the future. The scriptures, however, are the records of eternally living prophets' inspired responses to the revealed glimpses of the eternal mystery of being that is always "now" to IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT.

There is not one of us who has chosen to be alive at this moment. We all encounter personal realities and live in individual unique times and call this the Providence of God.

So it was, too, in first century Palestine when Jesus walked, taught and chose the twelve to maintain his presence in the world. Peter and the rest of the Apostles had no idea that they would meet the Son until called by Jesus and would only come to a less than clear understanding of what they were experiencing until after the Ascension.

They met a man such as themselves but one who they saw could change material reality at will. Mary had known from the time of the Annunciation that she was taking care of the "Son of God". Her "they have no wine" prompted the first Miracle. Mary had had God's purpose revealed by the message of an Angel but the Apostles saw the charisma and power of Jesus as evidence of the Messiah, a new Moses who would free their nation from the yoke of slavery to Rome.

They did not understand  that Jesus really did not have any plans to develop a new power to govern mankind in this world and so they quarrelled, ironically enough, about precedence in the Kingdom Jesus denied before Pilate. 

Jesus was solely concerned to give us the grace to recognise and do the will of FATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT so that each of our souls could be guided away from sin and onto the road to eternal happiness that was created by the unseen Love he poured out on Calvary.

I have come to the unhappy conclusion that JesusFatherHolySpirit has never been able to look at the Institutional Church and say "This is my beloved Church with which I am well pleased". 

We have never been left alone, however, even in the disgusting days of the first Vatican pornocracy and other godless periods of Church mal-governance to seek him without guidance, for Mary is not only the human mother of Our Lord she was also appointed the Spiritual Mother of Mankind while witnessing with John and the other Marys the gruesome real death that had to precede the overpoweringly real Resurrection.

Dear Lord help me to remain open to your truth and without anger as I become aware of the depths of corruption that Hierarchs of the Church have lead us into by misuse of your Name. All holiness that has ever been supported by your foundation on St Peter has had its origin in the grace you bestowed on your beloved Mother, the female and sole male disciples as they witnessed your death. The Church teaches that your presence in the Eucharist is ensured by going through the motions without any need for faith or holiness on the part of the priest. The learned and the clever claim to understand this but the little ones turn away in sorrow from such a lack of holiness that denies what first we came to believe about the mass. May my mind remain clear and my soul obtain forgiveness as I approach my bodily death. May Mary help us all to seek your grace and come to remember that we should continuously strive as did the Apostles to make a new "sign of the times" and  that is the eternal Sign of the Cross. Amen

Every human life has a beginning and an ending. It is not the complete package until it is over. 

The chosen people of IAMIAM were assured that there were rules within the Covenant that ordered the lifetimes of the chosen ones into doing the will of the supreme power, the NAME above all names.

I know that I do not have the eloquence of St Paul with which to express my faith. I do not have the mind to clarify even for myself "Name", living in what for St Paul was "the age to come" which for me is "now" except to wonder whether he is referring to this world or the next.

The Psalmist sings of the joy that we have all known when we have let our hearts be filled with the light that is God's faith, hope and love for us. He sings with joy but within the joy there is a warning that man has the power to become "little less than a god".

Jesus, who is God himself, incarnate, preparing to be the witness of his own "Name" warns us that although his Mercy is vast beyond imagination, the sin of the ones, "little less  than a god" who are so confident in their "Own Name" that they challenge or deny the "Kingdom which is not of this world" and choose to be as gods knowing for themselves what is right or wrong will lose the infinite being that FATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT creates us all to attain. 

We all must come pretty close to doing this each time we refuse to accept the Mercy proffered by Holy Spirit, suffered for by Incarnate Son, created by Father and give the "rule of man" precedence over the Love of God.

Dear Lord you know that I am trying to be a witness before men of your mercy. I know that words are not enough and that a sinless life is a far greater sign than thought and words. May I learn penitence and accept your punishment as I try to avoid more sin while living out  my span which you have given me to plead for forgiveness with heart-felt gratitude that is much more then lip service. May the Sinless Mary, Angels Saints welcome the dying and the forgiven Holy Souls into the infinite joy that being with you creates for all creation. It is only in the Name of Father, Son, Holy Spirit that I can find mercy and forgiveness. Amen.

If God's original  trust in our free ability to choose to rectify the results of Adam's disobedience had proved successful then we would not have needed the Incarnation. 

If there had not been the Incarnation there would not have been any need for the sinless Theotokos, the Twelve who walked throughout Palestine with Jesus listening, just being with God and our "so great a Saviour" himself  would not have responded to Adam's "Happy Fault".

At the time of the Incarnation, the faith of the Pharisees, the belief of the Temple Religion, was that after Adam had made his choice to disobey his creator, mankind lost our original unity and expanded into the bewildering mass of individual consciousnesses (all known by God) sometimes unified into "nations" that occupied the land promised to Abraham, the Promised Land". With the guidance and approval of IAMIAM Moses' followers cleared those out and despite innumerable setbacks over centuries are still doing the same today.

I am one of the descendants of the recipients of the message of the original seventy two and have retained Jesus' words "God is near you" as the "Other" that confirms my own unique being and is the guidance that never fails even though I do not fully comprehend it.

It is very hard for me to say this but I do think there are now and have been many times during the history of the world when even the Ultimate Sacrifice and Resurrection has not been enough to establish God's will on Earth. In his condemnation of Scribes and Pharisees, Jesus also condemned their "Law" which had not succeeded in directing each one of its followers into doing the will of IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT as God, in his Incarnation, has revealed himself to be.

God knows us all and he knows also that the weakness that is my being (and millions of others) needs to have been born into the Church that St Peter was to manage and confirm with St Paul  and His Mother with Saint John were to nourish with the Spiritual Guidance of HOLYSPIRITFATHERSON, if it is to know and do the Will of God on earth. I cannot see that this has ever happened for any generation since those days.

We all know that Pharisees and Lawyers failed IAMIAM. Jesus himself confirmed this in, Life, Death, Resurrection and that we can see for our selves today that institutions, Popes, Patriarchs, Prelates, Priests Preachers and all other ministers of Christianity have failed as did Priests, Prophets and Pharisees before them to support the care of individual souls that God knows of which we are all in need.

 Jesus' Mystical Body, however, the materially unconfined New Spiritual Holy Family has never failed and has always grown to feed the Faith that we need to clasp tightly to our beings for there is nothing in our lives more important than receiving the peace that comes from God, for he still trusts us and knows that even though, our organisations have failed to break free of the material kingdom of this world, the rule of Mammon, our souls are not only able to but have to if God's will on Earth is to be done.

Dear Lord, You are God and I am but a sinful man who is trying to respond to your Love. Help me to understand how it is that your original foundation on St Peter has committed so many sins in direct disobedience exactly as did Adam. You know what we need to become the perfect human beings that you have revealed in Jesus and Mary. May the prayers of Mary lead all Angels and Saints in praise that is the substance of Heaven and in your mercy not only forgive us our sins but also open our hearts to the mystery of what we call Love. May the souls of the penitents in Purgatory come to the total sorrow that is needed for any of us to be freed from the stain of our sins and may all souls on earth become active in their search for, by realising that You know each one of us and have more than enough, Mercy to forgive each one of us. Amen.

Thoughts prompted by the mass-readings for today's date as displayed on Universalis.com and the life and times of a newly designated Cardinal. 

I am not claiming for myself anything but humanity and thus, as are we all, a sinner. 

Many of us of my generation who have tried to follow the revelation of himself made to the world by Jesus have had it thrust into our faces that the religions which bear the name of Christ and into which we we have been born by the providence of God are today and always have been "Idols" that by creating for themselves institutions based on their consensual opinions became mirror images of the only people ever condemned by Jesus, and thus have Pharisaical feet of clay.

Today Jesus mourns that the guardians of the Covenant IAMIAM made with his people, the Jews, have manipulated his revelation into the lip-service of "whited sepulchres". He "mourns" because although God is immutable the Word Incarnate is "true man" and can thus experience and display all human emotions. Emmanuel is with us to bring salvation to sinners not to "cancel", a word of our times, sin as do the professional preachers locked into what they call "the signs of the times" and in reality is the " kingdom of this world" that was denied by Jesus before Pilate, its then representative on Earth.

The Resurrection is the ultimate purpose of Jesus' being, but his living body from womb to the grave is IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT's witness to us that there is no condition of being human being, sin excepted, that is not known through truly human experience by our God.

St Paul, whose letters to those "who have not seen but are blessed by belief" and St John remain the chief "targum" of the life and deeds of Jesus of Nazareth, today tells the Ephesians that we have all been blessed with "spiritual" gifts that enable us to become and remain the spotless ones known and created by God.

The Institutional Church, which, although fragmented has never been deserted by the Holy Spirit, even though she ignores him more often than follows, ensures today that all her ministers (even Cardinals and Bishops) will at least hear "the word of the Lord" and remember that the Liturgical event at which they are presiding is taking place because we can only regain our freedom from sin through the blood of Christ and that every generation and individual has to answer for their own sin and for not  challenging the sin of the World, the Culture of our Times.

Dear Lord, You know that I realise that I am as nothing before you but by your care, your Love for me, I can grow free from the tangles of memories that have been the many sinful moments of my life. You know that these words are not meaningless platitudes but mean exactly what they say. With your grace I can live up to them but only if  I am as truly honest as I think I am now. Help me Lord, Jesus. You know that I am truly horrified by the way that your straight forward condemnation of bodily sin is being twisted into the nonsense that I have read and heard spouted by Bishops and Abbots who have convinced themselves that it is they and not You who teach your people how to behave on Earth.  I pray that these thoughts and prayers can become part of the prayer of all of us who know that our spiritual self needs to dominate our bodies and will be supported by Mary and all the Angels and Saints of Heaven. May St Ignatius too keep the "fierce leopards" who guarded him on the way to Rome in his prayers and may our souls and those of all repentant sinners receive the pardon that you have won for us all. Amen.

I often wonder what it is about mankind that it has always been necessary for our God to review his plan of how he reveals his intentions to us. Abraham and all the prophets knew that Adam had disobeyed and that it was only by obedience that they could fulfill the Will of God but by the time of the Incarnation the original chosen people had become in need of the Ultimate Sacrifice to enable us to begin again in the footsteps of the New Adam. 

The original Adam was created ensouled material, flesh and blood. The New Adam, Jesus, is God himself, Son of FATHERSONHHOLYSPIRIT now true man, begotten not made, of one being with the Father through whom all things were made and all the other attributes as defined under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, at Chalcedon fifteen hundred years ago.

In St Paul's letter to the Galatians he can emphasise as he has had direct experience, that there has been a great shift in the way that God guides his people. The corporal laws that have been preached to them by others have in deed become weakened to become a temporal show condemned by Jesus and our response to God's new revelation in the grace of the Resurrection has now to be Spiritual in words and deeds that are governed by love of God and of our neighbour.

Each one of us can become secure in the heart of our beings only when we connect to the stream of Love, grace that always increases to meet the calls made on it. It is sure that our spiritual life is what leads us to God. We really do have to curb our bodily appetites and to focus our minds on finding and recognising what is the will of God for each of us.

I can write the above with sincerity knowing that my intentions are open to God so that I hope to be on the way to truth and life, but cannot imagine what God's plan is for all those who have never been given the opportunities for salvation as have the Chosen People and Christians who have heard the Word of God.

Dear Lord, help me to continue to call on you throughout this day to be free from sin and devoted to responding to your guidance and Love. You have always known me more deeply than I can know  myself so my prayers for the souls who have lived without ever being aware of you are not an impertinence but an attempt to understand Your will for all of us. May Mary the one human who has full knowledge of and love for you lead the prayers of all Angels and now sinless Souls that are in the perfect happiness that you have prepared for us all, that your forgiveness may be sought by all sinners on earth and gratefully received by our brothers and sisters still suffering Justice in Purgatory. Amen
