No to all Terrorists

No to all Terrorists including a false ' Mahommot ', the false Mahdi




The Dome of the Rock


Fanatics' target for attack to begin WWIII? Or actually the location for the false peace pact to be built around. See below:

Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ warned of false prophets who come in His name. This warning must be applied to any who preach themselves rather than God. If someone claimed to be the Twelfth Imam in an esoteric false-Sufi sense and pointed to a figure like al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah of the Druze as the Mahdi he would be a false prophet and an antichrist (dajjal) by definition. When he pointed to this person (most likely a freemason ecumenist "hawk") as the Mahdi who then, instead of witnessing to Muhammed (PBUH) and especially Jesus Christ (PBUH) and morality, unifies both Sunni and Shia and all of an apostasy from Islam around himself and strikes a peace agreement with the Antichrist (ad-Dajjal) in Jerusalem then this person claiming to be the Mahdi would be one of the ten horns (see Rev. 17:3, 7, 12, 16) that follow after the Beast (the Antichrist) and do his will and then there is the false peace St. Paul warned about. See: 1Thes:5:3 “For when they shall say: Peace and security; then shall sudden destruction come upon them, as the pains upon her that is with child, and they shall not escape.” (DRV) Many Muslims are named after Muhammed (PBUH). In this sense if we rearrange the name Muhammed (PBUH) to a different spelling that does not in any sense apply to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) but would only apply to a false prophet who is an apostate from Islam - a kafir, we arrive at -


In Hebrew Gematria:

Mohammot = 40 + 70 + 5 + 1 + 40 + 40 + 70 + 400 = 666

M mem = 40, O ayin = 70, H he = 5, A aleph = 1, M mem = 40, M mem = 40, O ayin = 70, T tau = 400

The swastika is one of the so-called birth symbols of the buddha; in actuality it is an ancient sun symbol of paganism and black magic --

The heresy of the Naasseni (literally “Naas” is the word for serpent, Jewish Gnostic serpent worshippers) is adverted to by the other leading writers on heresy in the early age of the Church. See St. Irenaeus, i, 34: Origen, Contr. Cels., vi 28 (p. 291 et seq. ed. Spenc.); Tertullian, Proeser., c. 47 Theodoret, Haeretic. Fabul, i. 14; Epiphanius, Advers. Haereses., xxv. and xxxvii.: St. Augustine, De Haeres., xvii.; Jerome, Comment. Epist. ad Galat., lib. ii. The Abbe Cruice reminds his readers that the Naasseni carried their doctrines into India, and refers to the Asiatic Researches (vol. x. p. 39).

The Abbe Cruice mentions the following works as of authority among the Gnostic Naasseni, and from whence they derived their system: The Gospel of Perfection, Gospel of Eve, The Questions of Mary, Concerning the Offspring of Mary, The Gospel of Philip, The Gospel according to (1)Thomas, (2) the Egyptians.

'The Abbe Cruice reminds his readers that the Naasseni carried their doctrines into India, and refers to the Asiatic Researches (vol. x. p. 39).' It was from this that the main composers of Buddhist teachings, Nagarjuna (literally “wise snake”) and Ashvaghosha, got their ideas (early second century A.D.) which are at the real historical beginning of Buddhism and not the mythic beginning around 500 B.C. concurrent with Mahavira and Goshala.


The Hebrew word is nachash. Hebrew for serpent and black magic and from whence comes the Indian word naga (serpent) and which is the same as nag in Nag Hammadi where the Gnostic writings were found a few decades ago and totally backed up everything that the Church Fathers said about the Gnostics.

paraton autoon logon. Bernaysius suggests for these words, patera too autoo logoo. Schneidewin regards the emendation as an error, and Bunsen partly so. The latter would read, patera ton autoon Logon, i.e., "The Naasseni honour the Father of all existent things, the Logos, as man and the Son of Man."


From St. Hippolytus THE REFUTATION OF ALL HERESIES.

BOOK V.
CHAP. I.- RECAPITULATION; CHARACTERISTICS OF HERESY; ORIGIN OF THE NAME NAASSENI; THE SYSTEM OF THE NAASSENI.

These (Naasseni), then, according to the system(1) advanced by them, magnify, (as the originating cause) of all things else, a man and a son of man. And this man is a hermaphrodite, and is denominated among them Adam; and hymns many and various are made to him. The hymns? however--to be brief--are couched among them in some such form as this: "From thee (comes) father, and through thee (comes) mother, two names immortal, progenitors of Aeons, O denizen of heaven, thou illustrious man." … All these qualities, however--rational, and psychical, and earthly--have, (the Naassene) says, retired and descended into one man simultaneously--Jesus,(5) who was born of Mary.


That is they honor: Adam as Father and Mother, and Jesus Christ as only man and only one example of the Logos and born of Mary and Joseph and not by the virgin birth, which is absolute apostasy.


IN SHORT IT WAS THE GNOSTICS THAT CREATED BUDDHISM BY THEIR EXPORT OF THE BLACK MAGIC OF THE APOSTATE GNOSTIC JEWS WHO DATED FROM TWO CENTURIES BEFORE CHRIST (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH CHRISTIAN JEWS NOR ORTHODOX JEWS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT) TO INDIA. IT IS TRUE THAT THE ALREADY PAGAN BASE OF HINDUISM WAS THE PAN HELLENIC – INDIAN PAGANISM THAT IT WAS GRAFTED ONTO. Actual notable Jewish presence (merchants) in India dated from about 500 B.C.

IT WAS IN THE EARLY THIRD CENTURY A.D. THAT ANOTHER CONNECTION TO THE PAGANISM OF INDIA WAS ESTABLISHED BY THE NEO-GNOSTIC DIDASCALIA (SOPHIST THEOLOGICAL SCHOOL OF ALEXANDRIA).

God voided the Covenant

God voided the covenant

The core of the Antichrist lie is that the Israelis are the people that God made a land covenant with which is still in effect in the area called Palestine for the last two thousand years. In the Book of Deuteronomy, Chapters 28 -- 32 God explicitly tells Moses that the ancient Israelites will transgress the land covenant with God and God will void the covenant permanently and cast them out. Especially see Dt. 31:16,17

"And the Lord said to Moses: Behold thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, and this people rising up will go a fornicating after strange gods in the land, to which they goeth in to dwell: there will they forsake me, and will void the covenant, which I have made with them,

And my wrath shall be kindled against them in that day: and I will forsake them, and will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured: all evils and afflictions shall find them, so that they shall say in that day: In truth it is because God is not with me, that these evils have found me."

This came to pass forevermore exactly as Our Lord Jesus Christ said 1500 years later when He prophesied the utter destruction of the Temple. That destruction occurred in 70 A.D. God also gave the descendants of Ishmael the land since God was done with land covenants (except for the unconditional blessing upon Ishmael and his descendants) with the Incarnation, Death and Burial and Resurrection of His Son Jesus Christ. For, as the Church Fathers taught, the land covenant was a type of the Resurrection of Christ, and the resurrection of all men by virtue of the Cross of Christ – His Kenosis.

See:

Gn:21:17:
17 And God heard the voice of the boy: and an angel of God called to Hagar from heaven, saying: What art thou doing, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the boy, from the place wherein he is.

18 Lift the boy up and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation."

ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTAND THIS! THE PEOPLE NOWADAYS CALLING THEMSELVES ISRAELIS HAVE NO BUSINESS REFERING TO THEMSELVES THAT WAY AT ALL. THEY ARE USURPERS AND TERRORISTS AND ZIONIST NAZIS AND THAT IS ALL!

...

We (the United States) and anyone else also, have no business furthering the global domination schemes of the AshkeNAZI Zionist imposters who are the real anti-semites in the way they have treated Christian and Muslim Palestinians.

...

MOST ESPECIALLY, Christians around the world must heed Our Lord's command in St. Matthew's Gospel 25th Chapter to help His brethren, for that of course means those in need and not apostate pillaging Jews. See v.41-46

...

"41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels.

42 For I was hungry, and you gave me not to eat: I was thirsty, and you gave me not to drink.

43 I,was a stranger, and you took me not in: naked,and you covered me not: sick and in prison, and you did not visit me.

44 Then they also shall answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to thee?

45 Then he shall answer them, saying: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it not to one of these least, neither did you do it to me.

46 And these shall go into everlasting punishment: but the just, into life everlasting."

This is exactly what has been done for 60 years and more and is being done to the Palestinian Christians and Muslims now. They are persecuted mercilessly by the lawless apostate pretend Israelis and so-called Christian Zionists, both of whom will go into the lake of fire at the command of Our Lord Jesus Christ when he returns from heaven (Romans 1:18) "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and injustice of those men that detain the truth of God in injustice:"

Prophecy Of Ezechiel

Prophecy Of Ezechiel

Chapter 8

The prophet sees in a vision the abominations committed in Jerusalem; which determine the Lord to spare them no longer.

1 And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house, and the ancients of Juda sat before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell there upon me. 2 And I saw, and behold a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins, and downward, fire: and from his loins, and upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the appearance of amber. 3 And the likeness of a hand was put forth and took me by a lock of my head: and the spirit lifted me up between the earth andthe heaven, and brought mein the vision of God into Jerusalem fn.‘n’, near the innergate, that looked toward the north, where was set the idol of jealousy to provoke to jealousy. 4 And behold the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I had seen in the plain. 5 And he said to me: Son of man, lift up thy eyes towards the way of the north. And I lifted up my eyes towards the way of the north: and behold on the north side of the gate of the altar the idol of jealousy in the very entry.

6 And he said to me: Son of man, dost thou see, thinkest thou, what these are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should depart far off from my sanctuary? and turn thee yet again and thou shalt see greater abominations. 7 And he brought me in to the door of the court: and I saw, and behold a hole in the wall. 8 And he said to me: Son of man, dig in the wall. And when I had digged in the wall, behold a door. 9 And he said to me: Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they commit here. 10 And I went in and saw, and behold every form of creeping things, and of living creatures, the abomination, and all the idols of the house of Israel, were painted on the wall all round about.

11 And seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel, and Jezonias the son of Saaphan stood in the midst of them, that stood before the pictures: and every one had a censer in his hand: and a cloud of smoke went up from the incense. 12 And he said to me: Surely thou seest. O son of man, what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every one in private in his chamber: for they say: The Lord seeth us not, the Lord hath forsaken the earth. 13 And he said to me: If thou turn thee again, thou shalt see greater abominations which these commit. 14 And he brought me in by the door of the gate of the Lord's house, which looked to the north: and behold women sat there mourning for Adonis. 15 And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: but turn thee again: and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.

14 "Adonis"... The favourite of Venus, slain by a wild boar, as feigned by the heathen poets, and which being here represented by an idol, is lamented by the female worshippers of that goddess. In the Hebrew, the name is Tammuz.

16 And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord: and behold at the door of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men having their backs towards the temple of the Lord, and their faces to the east: and they adored towards the rising of the sun. 17 And he said to me: Surely thou hast seen, O son of man: is this a light thing to the house of Juda, that they should commit these abominations which they have committed here: because they have filled the land with iniquity, and have turned to provoke me to anger? and behold they put a branch to their nose. 18 Therefore I also will deal with them in my wrath: my eye shall not spare them, neither will I shew mercy: and when they shall cry to my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.

fn. ‘n’ Dan. 14, 6.

1-Ver. 3. The statue of jealousy which stirs up jealousy: the statue which provokes the Lord's jealousy for his honor. This was the statue of the goddess Ashera erected by the wicked King Manasse[cf. 4 Kgs. 21, 7 (449); 2 Par. 33, 7. 15 (519)]. Though it had been removed by King Josia [4 Kgs. 23, 6(451)], it had been set up again in the repaganizing of Jerusalem that fol­lowed on Josia's death.

2-Ver. 5. He: an angel accompanies Ezech­Iel in these visions and represents the voice of the Lord; cf. Ezech. 40, 3f (1000).

3-Ver. 10. Creeping things and loathsome beasts: Egyptian deities, which were represented in animal form. During the last days of Jerusalem King Sedecia was al­lied with Egypt, trusting in it for protection against the Chaldeans.

4-Ver. 14. Weeping tor Adonis, i.e. Tammuz: the With­ering of trees and plants in autumn was thought to be due to the descent.of Tammuz, the Babylonian god of fertility, to the nether world of the dead; this descent was bewailed by the women.

5-Ver. 16. Bowing down to the sun: sun worship had been made an important part of Judaite idolatry by the impious kings; cf. 4 Kgs. 23,11 (452). a

6-Ver. 17. Put the branch to their nose: the meaning is certain. It refers to an Egyptian practice imported into Juda: the Egyptian sun god Re is pictured with a vine branch at his nose, signifying the trans­fer of creative power (divine breath) to liv­ing things, especially included in this practice was the sacrifice of infants to Mammon-Re as a way of influencing and divining the future and the disembowelment of these children for the conjuring of the demon they believed was attached to the soul of these “immaculate” children as they called them in Graeco-Egyptian religion which dated back to 1500 B.C. Such rites were and have always been abominable to the Lord.

Prophecy of Daniel

Chapter 11

War between Syria and Egypt

The angel declares to Daniel many things to come, with regard to the Persian and Grecian kings: more especially with regard to Antiochus as a figure of Antichrist.

1 And from the first year of Darius the Mede I stood up that he might be strengthened and confirmed. 2 And now I will shew thee the truth. Behold there shall stand yet three kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be enriched exceedingly above them all: and when he shall be grown mighty by his riches, he shall stir up all against the kingdom of Greece. 3 But there shall rise up a strong king, and shall rule with great power: and he shall do what he pleaseth. 4 And when he shall come to his height, his kingdom shall be broken, and it shall be divided towards the four winds of the heaven: but not to his posterity, nor according to his power with which he ruled. For his kingdom shall be rent in pieces, even for strangers, beside these. 5 And the king of the south shall be strengthened, and one of his princes shall prevail over him, and he shall rule with great power: for his dominion shall be great.

2 "Three kings"... Viz., Cambyses, Smerdes Magus, and Darius, the son of Hystaspes.-- Ibid.

2 "The fourth"... Xerxes.

3 "A strong king"...Alexander.

5 "The king of the south"... Ptolemeus the son of Lagus, king of Egypt, which lies south of Jerusalem.-- Ibid.

5 "One of his princes"... that is, one of Alexander's princes, shall prevail over him: that is, shall be stronger than the king of Egypt. He speaks of Seleucus Nicator, king of Asia and Syria, whose successors are here called the kings of the north, because their dominions lay to the north in respect to Jerusalem.

6 And after the end of years they shall be in league together: and the daughter of the king of the south shall come to the king of the north to make friendship, but she shall not obtain the strength of the arm, neither shall her seed stand: and she shall be given up, and her young men that brought her, and they that strengthened her in these times. 7 And a plant of the bud of her roots, shall stand up: and he shall come with an army, and shall enter into the province of the king of the north: and he shall abuse them, and shall prevail. 8 And he shall also carry away captive into Egypt their gods,and their graven things, and their precious vessels of gold and silver: he shall prevail against the king of the north. 9 And the king of the south shall enter into the kingdom, and shall return to his own land. 10 And his sons shall be provoked, and they shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and he shall come with haste like a flood: and he shall return and be stirred up, and he shall join battle with his forces.

6 "The daughter of the king of the south"... Viz., Berenice, daughter of Ptolemeus Philadelphus, given in marriage to Antiochus Theos, grandson of Seleucus.

7 "A plant"... Ptolemeus Evergetes, the son of Philadelphus.

8 "The king of the north"... Seleucus Callinicus.

10 "His sons"... Seleucus Ceraunius, and Antiochus the Great, the sons of Callinicus.-- Ibid.

10 "He shall come"... Viz., Antiochus the Great.

11 And the king of the south being provoked shall go forth, and shall fight against the king of the north, and shall prepare an exceeding great multitude, and a multitude shall be given into his hand. 12 And he shall take a multitude, and his heart shall be lifted up, and he shall cast down many thousands: but he shall not prevail. 13 For the king of the north shall return and shall prepare a multitude much greater than before: and in the end of times and years, be shall come in haste with a great army, and much riches. 14 And in those times many shall rise up against the king of the south, and the children of prevaricators of thy people shall lift up themselves to fulfill the vision, and they shall fall. 15 And the king of the north shall come, and shall cast up a mount, and shall take the best fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, and his chosen ones shall rise up to resist, and they shall not have strength.

11 "The king of the south"... Ptolemeus Philopator, son of Evergetes.

16 And he shall come upon him and do according to his pleasure, andthere shall be none to stand against his face: and he shall stand in the glorious land, and it shall be consumed by his hand. 17 And he shall set his face to come to possess all his kingdom, and he shall make upright conditions with him: and he shall give him a daughter of women, to overthrow it: and she shall not stand, neither shall she be for him. 18 And he shall turn his face to the islands, and shall take many: and he shall cause the prince of his reproach to cease, and his reproach shall be turned upon him. 19 And he shall turn his face to the empire of his own land, and he shall stumble, and fall, and shall not befound. 20 And there shall stand up in his place, one most vile, and unworthy of kingly honour: and in a few days he shall be destroyed, not in rage nor in battle.

16 "He shall come upon him"... Viz., Antiochus shall come upon the king of the south.-- Ibid.

16 "The glorious land"... Judea.

17 "All his kingdom"... Viz., all the kingdom of Ptolemeus Epiphanes, son of Philopator.-- Ibid.

17 "A daughter of women"... That is, a most beautiful woman, viz., his daughter Cleopatra.-- Ibid.

17 "To overthrow it"... Viz., the kingdom of Epiphanes: but his policy shall not succeed; for Cleopatra shall take more to heart the interest of her husband, than that of her father.

18 "The prince of his reproach"... Seipio the Roman general, called the prince of his reproach, because he overthrew Antiochus, and obliged him to submit to very dishonourable terms, before he would cease from the war.

20 "One most vile"... Seleucus Philopator, who

sent Heliodorus to plunder the temple: and was shortly after slain by the same Heliodorus.

A Figure of the Antichrist

A Figure of the Antichrist

Dan. 11:

21 And there shall stand up in his place one despised, and the kingly honour shall not be given him: and he shall come privately, and shall obtain the kingdom by fraud. 22 And the arms of the fighter shall be overcome before his face, and shall be broken; yea also the prince of the covenant. 23 And after friendships, he will deal deceitfully with him: and he shall go up, and shall overcome with a small people. 24 And he shall enter into rich and plentiful cities: and he shall do that which his fathers never did, nor his fathers' fathers: he shall scatter their spoils, and their prey, and their riches, and shall forecast devices against the best fenced places: and this untila time. 25 And his strength and his heart shall be stirred up against the king of the south with a great army: and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with many and very strong succours: and they shall not stand, for they shall form designs against him.

21 "One despised"... Viz., Antiochus Epiphanes, who at first was despised and not received for king. What is here said of this prince, is accommodated by St. Jerome and others to Antichrist; of whom this Antiochus was a figure.

22 "Of the fighter"... That is, of them that shall oppose him, and shall fight against him.-- Ibid.

22 "The prince of the covenant"... or, of the league. The chief of them that conspired against him: or the king of Egypt his most powerful adversary.

25 "The king"... Ptolemeus Philometor.

26 And they that eat bread with him, shall destroy him, and his army shall be overthrown: and many shall fall down slain. 27 And the heart of the two kings shall be to do evil, and they shall speak lies at one table, and they shall not prosper: because as yet the end is unto another time. 28 And he shall return into his land with much riches: and his heart shall be against the holy covenant, and he shall succeed and shall return into his own land. 29 At the time appointed he shall return, and he shall come to the south, but the latter time shall not be like the former. 30 And the galleys and the Romans shall come upon him, and he shall be struck, and shall return, and shall have indignation against the covenant of the sanctuary, and he shall succeed: and he shall return and shall devise against them that have forsaken the covenant of the sanctuary.

30 "The galleys and the Romans"... Popilius, and the other Roman ambassadors, who came in galleys, and obliged him to depart from Egypt.

31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall defile the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the continual sacrifice, and they shall place there the abomination unto desolation. 32 And such as deal wickedly against the covenant shall deceitfully dissemble: but the people that know their God shall prevail and succeed. 33 And they that are learned among the people shall teach many: and they shall fall by the sword, and by fire, and by captivity, and by spoil for many days. 34 And when they shall have fallen they shall be relieved with a small help: and many shall be joined to them deceitfully. 35 And some of the learned shall fall, that they may be tried, and may be chosen, and made white even to the appointed time, because yet there shall be another time.

31 "They shall place there the abomination"... The idol of Jupiter Olympius, which Antiochus ordered to be set up in the sanctuary of the temple: which is here called the sanctuary of strength, from the Almighty that was worshipped there.

36 And the king shall do according to his will, and he shall be lifted up, and shall magnify himself against every god: and he shall speak great things against the God of gods, and shall prosper, till the wrath be accomplished. For the determination is made. 37 And he shall make no account of the God of his fathers: and he shall follow the lust of women, and he shall not regard any gods: for he shall rise up against all things. 38 But he shall worship the god Maozim in his place: and a god whom hisfathers knew not, he shall worship with gold, and silver, and precious stones, and things of great price. 39 And he shall do this to fortify Maozim with a strange god, whom he hath acknowledged, and he shall increase glory and shall give them power over many, and shall divide the land gratis. 40 And at the time prefixed the king of the south shall fight against him, and the king of the north shall come against him like a tempest, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with a great navy, and he shall enter into the countries, and shall destroy, and pass through.

38 "The god Maozim"... That is, the god of forces or strong holds.

39 "And he shall increase glory"... He shall bestow honours, riches and lands, upon them that shall worship his god.

41 And he shall enter into the glorious land, and manyshall fall: and these only shall be saved out of his hand, Edom, and Moab, and the principality of the children of Ammon. 42 And he shall lay his hand upon the lands: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. 43 And he shall have power over the treasures of gold, and of silver, and all the precious things of Egypt: and he shall pass through Libya, and Ethiopia. 44 And tidings out of the east, and out of the north shall trouble him: and he shall come with a great multitude to destroy and slay many. 45 And he shall fix his tabernacle Apadno between the seas, upon a glorious and holy mountain: and he shall come even to the top thereof, and noneshall help him.

45 "Apadno"... Some take it for the proper name of a place: others, from the Hebrew, translate it his palace.

Prophecy Of Daniel

Ver. 36-39.Instead of venerating Apollo, one of the gods of his ancestors, Antiochus

venerated, and even identified himself with, Zeus Olympios, whom the Romans equated

the god of their fortress in Rome, Jupiter Capitolinus, the god, of strongholds.

From:

http://www.britannica.com/ebc/article-357#cite

[brief excerpt]

In the Temple an altar to Zeus Olympios was erected, and sacrifices were to be made at the feet of an idol in the image of the King.

[end of brief excerpt]

*************************

The epitome of black magic in the ancient world was the use of human sacrifice (especially children) in front of an idol with a high-priest/king murdering the child as an offering to gain magical power. Given the types in Ezechiel and Daniel above, it is certain that the Antichrist will do the same thing in the rebuilt temple in Jerusalem. This, with the Antichrist’s declaration (utterly false) that he is god, will be the Abomination of Desolation that Our Lord Jesus Christ warned us of in St. Matthew’s Gospel, Chapter 24.

Saint Cyprian follower of The Lord Jesus Christ

Saint Cyprian was a Roman Church Father who was key in withstanding the persecutions of the Church in her early history.

From Father Alban Butler's Lives of the Saints.

September 16.— ST. CYPRIAN, Bishop, Martyr.


CYPRIAN was an African of noble birth, but of evil life, a pagan, and a teacher of rhetoric. In middle life he was converted to Christianity, and shortly after his baptism was ordained priest, and made Bishop of Carthage, notwithstanding his resistance. When the persecution of Decius broke out, he fled from his episcopal city, that he might be the better able to minister to the wants of his flock, but returned on occasion of a pestilence. Later on he was banished, and saw in a vision his future martyrdom. Being recalled from exile, sentence of death was pronounced against him, which he received with the words “Thanks be to God.” His great desire was to die whilst in the act of preaching the faith of Christ, and he had the consolation of being surrounded at his martyrdom by crowds of his faithful children. He was beheaded on the 14th of September, 258, and was buried with great solemnity. Even the pagans respected his memory.


Reflection The duty of almsgiving is declared both by nature and revelation: by nature, because it flows from the principle imprinted within us of doing to others as we would they should do to us; by revelation, in many special commands of Scripture, and in the precept of divine charity which binds us to love God for His own sake, and our neighbor for the sake of God.

The Second Coming of The Lord Jesus Christ


It was in the Holy Land that Jesus Christ the God-man walked and taught and was crucified and was buried and rose again in the same flesh and ascended to heaven in at the right hand of the Father. It is the Holy Land that He will return to from heaven and gather all men unto Himself for judgement.

From Father Adrian Fortescue's collection of hymns.

AUTHOR of man’s salvation, Jesus, joy of hearts, maker of a world redeemed, pure light of them who love thee;
2. What pity moves thee to bear our sins, that thou guiltless shouldst bear death to save us from death!
3. Thou dost break through the darkness of hell, taking away chains from prisoners; thou conquering in glorious triumph dost sit at the Father’s right hand.
4. Let pity move thee to heal our woes, to grant us to see thy face in the blessed light.
5. Leader to heaven and way of life, be thou the end of our desire, thou our joy after tears, thou the reward of life for ever.

EASTERTIDE

Vesper hymn for Ascension Day (about the 8th century)

Let us walk in the blessed light until the return of Christ to meet Him joyfully.

Eph:5:

1 ¶ Be ye therefore followers of God, as most dear children:

2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.

9 For the fruit of the light is in all goodness and justice and truth:

10 Proving what is well pleasing to God.

11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness: but rather reprove them.

12 For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of.

13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for all that is made manifest is light.

14 Wherefore he saith: Rise, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead: and Christ shall enlighten thee.

15 See therefore, brethren, how you walk circumspectly: not as unwise,

16 But as wise: redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

17 Wherefore, become not unwise: but understanding what is the will of God.

18 … be ye filled with the Holy Spirit,

19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord:

20 Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father:

2Thes:2:
1 ¶ And we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and of our gathering together unto him:
2 That you be not easily moved from your sense nor be terrified, neither by spirit nor by word nor by epistle. as sent from us, as if the day of the Lord were at hand.
3 ¶ Let no man deceive you by any means: for unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition
4 Who opposeth and is lifted up above all that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself as if he were God.
5 Remember you not that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6 And now you know what withholdeth, that he may be revealed in his time.
7 For the mystery of iniquity already worketh: only that he who now holdeth do hold, until he be taken out of the way.
8 And then that wicked one shall be revealed: whom the Lord Jesus shall kill with the spirit of his mouth and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: him
9 Whose coming is according to the working of Satan, in all power and signs and lying wonders:
10 And in all seduction of iniquity to them that perish: because they receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 (2:10) Therefore God shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying:
12 (2-11) That all may be judged who have not believed the truth but have consented to iniquity.
13 ¶ (2-12) But we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, beloved of God, for that God hath chosen you firstfruits unto salvation, in sanctification of the spirit and faith of the truth:
14 (2-13) Whereunto also he hath called you by our gospel, unto the purchasing of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 (2-14) Therefore, brethren, stand fast: and hold the traditions, which you have learned, whether by word or by our epistle.
16 ¶ (2-15) Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God and our Father, who hath loved us and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope in grace,
17 (2-16) Exhort your hearts and confirm you in every good work and word.
