Jeremiah 30:6-7

A reader sent this note…

Father, I’ve been dividing time reading the Bible and CCC at your suggestion, and many times am thunderstruck at passages come across. This one hit me very, very hard right now; and I want to share.

“Ask now, and see, can a man bear a child? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his loins like a woman in labor? Why has every face turned pale?  Alas! that day is so great there is none like it; it is a time of distress for Jacob; yet he shall be saved out of it. “

What is the context of Jeremiah 30?

God has promised to restore Israel and Judah and bring them back out of bondage to the land of their patrimony.   He will break the yoke off their necks and burst their bonds and strangers will no longer enslave them.

May God break the yoke of woke and restore common sense to men, especially, but also women who in their delirium, listen to the demons and offend God in the mutilation of his images and in the perversities of their acts.  May those who pave the way for such atrocities experience conversion of heart and sincere, saving regret along with amendment of life.

To them I say:

GO TO CONFESSION!

It is not too late for you.  So long as you breathe and can make your confession, GO!  Once you have breathed your last, it will be too late for you and all you will have for eternity is the self-enclosed agony of separation from God as well as pains of the flesh after the Final Judgment.

Is it worth it?

    I feel that way about our Church right now which is under attack by modernists both without and within. The latest being the attack on Bishop Strickland who apparently is now under investigation for being too Catholic.
