We're All In It.

Harvest time again and though I love Thanksgiving, I have to stand back from the bounty and think about what this means for me. Two things come to mind. One, I consider the parable of The Rich Man and Lazarus(Lk16:19-31). Two, I reflect on the passage of time.... (www.catholic365.com)

Do not be the partakers of others sins!

Sin is breaking the Law of God (1 John 3:4). World is full of sinners. As a sinner, we are separated from God (Isaiah 59:2). Jesus Christ came to the world (1 John 4:10) died to pay for our sins on the cross. Sin is like disease that corrupts the body same as Sin corrupts the soul to become evil. It...

Two True Religions

There are only two true religions in the world. Judaism and Catholicism. God established both. In this article, I’d like to answer the question, “if God established Judaism, why should we be Catholic?”... (www.catholic365.com)

What seems so necessary today may not even be desirable tomorrow.

As we look closely at our lives, let us see if anyone or anything has taken first place before God. We can look at where we spend our time and energy. If we spend all of our time working to make more money so we can buy things, but we don’t take time to pray and help others, we are out of balance.... (www.catholic365.com)

Bread - Anybody?

More thoughts for reflection—By God’s own Words in Scripture we are told that God knew of us before we were conceived in the womb. We are called and chosen! Called or chosen to do what? Is it possible, that we are just to be a piece of bread?... (www.catholic365.com)

An Introduction to the Five Ways of St. Thomas Aquinas, Part 7

St. Thomas Aquinas, from Aristotle, identified four causes of things: material, formal, efficient and final. Think of a clay pitcher. The material cause of the pitcher is simply what the pitcher is made of, that is, the clay. The formal cause of the pitcher is the form it takes, a cylindrical-shaped... (www.catholic365.com)

If I have faith, why do I need works?

Recently, during the visit of the Holy Father to the United States, I came across many social media posts from our Protestant brothers and sisters denouncing the concept of works being important for our salvation. The protests of the dissenters seem to largely center around a passage from the Letter... (www.catholic365.com)

Closer Than A Brother

When I was a child growing up in the Catholic Church with a child’s understanding it seemed to me that God was somewhere far off in a place called “Heaven”. He had some sort of listening device, though, because we were told that He could hear our prayers. It was all very ethereal and spiritual, but ... (www.catholic365.com)

Okay So... What is American Freedom Then? (The Freedom Papers)

Without a doubt, the thing most threatened in our world today is freedom. No, this is not a ‘foil on your head’ conspiracy about how aliens are coercing our government to take our freedom away. No doubt, whether aliens are involved or not, we can see that some of our most basic rights are being thre... (www.catholic365.com)

e. There are many misunderstood beliefs in the Catholic faith. And there are many Catholics who misunderstand their own faith. As one reads the history of our salvation (The Holy Bible, The Word of God), it is easy to see a pattern emerge, a pattern of God’s people who worship and practice and KN... (www.catholic365.com)

In a Word: Wise

I keep having a dream that I’m riding a camel in the clouds. Ever heard of the three wise men/kings of the orient? They rode on camels, right? Tell you what. Just sitting atop that camel in my dreams makes me feel wise.... (www.catholic365.com)

Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hope

Few of us face stark choices in responding to Jesus’ call in our lives. We follow Him while doing other good things, too, like caring for our families and making a living. We are multitaskers, it seems. But in our multitasking, we may need to pause and gain a sense in which we are really followin... (www.catholic365.com)

The Family Photo Album

I’m not Catholic by birth, but by choice. I was raised in the Baptist tradition until I was a preteen at which point my family stopped attending church. I’m not entirely clear on all the specifics, but no matter the reasoning, I’m convinced starving souls had as much to do with it as anything.... (www.catholic365.com)
