Although I utilize the Stations of the Cross year round, these holy days should be especially focused on reparation, and dwelling upon His sacrifice. I find the Shroud of Turin a good focus, and gazing upon His beautiful Face. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76862206 “Remember man that you are dust and unto dust you shall return.” You are supposed to examine your life DAILY.. its called introspection which must be done especially when things are not comfortable. IT IS NOT REGULATED BY GAWD.. the fellow in the sky. Your savior is not what you think. You have been controlled so during Lent.. maybe examine that one. You are saved by your desire for goodness.. morality ANd TAKING THE LIFE ETERNAL. You can be Good and moral and righteous but reject the life eternal.. THAT IS YOUR CHOICE.

If individual Bible reading alone were enough, we would each be the head of our own churches because we would each have our own interpretation and beliefs...matter of fact, that’s why there are about 50,000 Protestant denominations, with 1-2 new ones added every week. |

In about 367 AD, St. Athanasius came up with a list of 73 books for the Bible that he believed to be divinely inspired. This list was finally approved by Pope Damasus I in 382 AD, and was formally approved by the Church Council of Rome in that same year. Later Councils at Hippo (393 AD) and Carthage (397 AD) ratified this list of 73 books. In 405 AD, Pope Innocent I wrote a letter to the Bishop of Toulouse reaffirming this canon of 73 books.

Follow Jesus, Matthew 6:16-18 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face; That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly. God bless. Life is short Death is sure Sin the cause Christ the cure! |
