On Easter Sunday, Jesus Weeps for our Nation
STATEMENT of H.E. Msgr. Carlo Maria Viganò, Archbishop, former Apostolic Nuncio to the United States of America on the scandalous proclamation of March 31 as “Transgender visibility day” by “president” Joe Biden. The word Apocalipse, in Greek, means unveil...
Worst President EVER!
He does not mince his words. & for good reason.
I'm not even praying for mercy, I'm praying for justice here and now. Pour your judgement upon the people that have abandoned your ways for sin and wickedness. Turn DC and San Francisco into salt like the modern day Sodom and Gomorrah that they are and let their example cause those who have lost their way to repent and seek salvation.
Matthew 5:43-48 You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
I'm praying for them, but as I said I'm praying that they see the punishment of the wicked in this life so they can come to view their actions as wrong and repent and be saved in the next.
The "enemies" I was thinking of when bringing up those verses are "the wicked". The ones that you seem to be suggesting can't be saved and who are good for nothing except to make examples of.
Judging DC and San Francisco in such a way right now, while just, would deprive all who reside there of any further chance to repent. And maybe they don't deserve that chance, but God is merciful and gives us all that chance anyway.
I have to agree with you, we deserve punishment and judgement, brimstone and fire.
But I pray that somehow we will convert, do penance, and seek God.
The Old Testament of the Bible is a chronicle of Israel's unfaithfulness to the Lord, so I have little reason to believe we would fare any different in terms of a spontaneous mass repentance without being motivated by punishment for sins.
God Bless and Protect him! 🙏
The Risen Lord is facepalming.
