A Little While, and You Shall See Me No Longer.
Nobody expects a duck to produce a dog as an offspring nor a cat to produce an elephant. You and I both know that a dog makes other dogs and cats make other cats just like people make other people. Well, a little farm boy knew this truth when he was approached one day before Christmas. A priest who had been released from a “holding tank” in Poland was making his hike back home when he accosted this little fellow working and asked if he could have a drink of water. “Sure” said the boy and promptly went to secure a glass of water for the thirsty priest.
In their conversation the priest learned that the boy was working to help his mother pay forthe rent and food for the father had abandoned them. The priest inquired “Do you believe in Jesus?” The boy answered in a unique manner saying: “Father, I can’t believe because I have to work hard day after day. No one has ever given me anything. They tell me of the kindness and the power of Jesus but I haven’t experienced it. I see that pigs make other pigs and cows make other cows and people make other people. So if Jesus is God He ought to make other Jesus’s.”
This is the issue today. Our Lord must be known in order to be loved, but love is growing colder and colder everywhere. Where are the “other Jesus’s” that should come from the conviction of the Holy Ghost. For the Holy Ghost must convict us of our sins. Sin is the denial of the presence of God, a break in our relationship to God. Sin abounds, confession of sin is at a low point and love is growing colder. It all comes from the realization that people do not know Jesus, the Word made Flesh. They know all about the new technologies but nothing about the Lord of Creation.
Our Lord promised that He would send the Holy Spirit to convict the world that it does not believe in His Divinity. Is not this the very core of our society’s problem today? What about the new “religion” of Vatican II? If Jesus is one of the “many” rather than the “Way” then I might as well chose the faith vision that is easiest to get to a false “heaven” and a real “hell”. There is one Lord, one Faith, one God and one baptism. The Catholic Church is the one, holy, catholic and apostolic expression of the living Christ begetting other “Christs”. You and I are called to give Him our human nature to carry on the work of true salvation.
Yes, the Holy Ghost is meant to convict us of our sins; convince us of justice and of judgment. Justice gives to God what is due to Him…reverence. How is God revered if one does not know His revelation in Jesus Christ. The one act of Justice is the act of Calvary renewed upon the true altars of sacrifice found in the true Catholic Church and not in a Novus Ordo Masonic Meal. Priests are Alter Christus and are meant to sacrifice and not to preside at a meal. There can be no justice until the Church renews its faith in the divinity of Christ and rejects all the false claimants who have produced a multitude of churches honoring Satan rather than the Christ.
Judgment is coming upon us, the world, and the devil. That judgment has a criterion and it is Jesus Christ. He is my Lord and I give Him myself. The poet repeats his poem in truth:
Lord, You have no hands but my hands to do your work today;
You have no feet but my feet to lead others in your way;
You have no tongue but my tongue to tell men and women how You lived and died;
and You have no help but my help to bring others to your side.
May we become the other Christs that this world desperately needs through the womb of our Blessed Mother. In union with the call of our Lady of Fatima may we raise our voices to end the slaughter of the innocent within the wombs. Let us cry out to the comfortable priests, bishops and Pope to end this worldly fiasco and consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary now. Let us cry out to God for the peace that surpasses our understanding. Only she can help us regain the holiness necessary to conquer the many demonic expressions in our world today.
In the hearts of Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
Fr. Richard Voigt
