Excommunication is... an option...

Pope Gregory IX, born Ugolino di Conti, was pope from March 19, 1227 to August 22, 1241.

The successor of Pope Honorius III (1216–27), he fully inherited the traditions of Pope Gregory VII (1073–85) and of his uncle Pope Innocent III (1198-1216), and zealously continued their policy of Papal supremacy.











Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive or suspend membership in a religious community. The word literally means putting [someone] out of communion.

In some religions, excommunication includes spiritual condemnation of the member or group. Censures and sanctions sometimes follow excommunication; these include banishment, shunning, and shaming, depending on the religion, the offense that caused excommunication, or the rules or norms of the religious community.







Dealing with a Sinning Brother

15 “Moreover if your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother.

16 But if he will not hear, take with you one or two more, that ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.’[b]

17 And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the church. But if he refuses even to hear the church, let him be to you like a heathen and a tax collector.


8 “Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

19 “Again I say[c] to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.

20 For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”


The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant

21 Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?”


at least when when it comes to U.S. politics.

Burke, who was named prefect of the Vatican’s Supreme Court of the Apostolic Signature in June, told the Italian Catholic newspaper Avvenire that the U.S. Democratic Party risked “transforming itself definitively into a party of death for its decisions on bioethical issues.”

He then attacked two of the party’s most high profile Catholics — vice presidential candidate Joe Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi — for misrepresenting Church teaching on abortion.


POLITICIANS MUST NOW FACE EXCUMMINATION AND THIS THEY MUST STICK TO AND .... House Rules:.



Burke said pro-life Democrats were “rare” and that it saddened him that the party that helped “our immigrant parents and grandparents” prosper in America had changed so much over the years.

Burke made headlines as archbishop of St. Louis for his public attacks on public figures who strayed from Catholic teaching.

He suggested during the 2004 presidential campaign that Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry, a Catholic, should be denied communion because of his views on abortion.

Several bishops said at the time they would not give him communion and the media staked out churches where he attended Mass to see if he received it.

Don't ask Alvin Glombowski, or a Holy Cross Brother.. we don't know!!

gee what is this mean??

DuH !!!

13 ‘You shall not cheat your neighbor, nor rob him. The wages of him who is hired shall not remain with you all night until morning.

14 You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind, but shall fear your God: I am the LORD.

15 ‘You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty. In righteousness you shall judge your neighbor.

16 You shall not go about as a talebearer among your people; nor shall you take a stand against the life of your neighbor: I am the LORD.

17 ‘You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.

18 You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the LORD.
19 ‘You shall keep My statutes.

roman catholic truth or lie?;; boysville of michigan.. Holy Cross Brothers

When i was there... for 3 years...

every thing religion wise... was some body's opinion..
the holy cross brother's don't know much of any scripture..

except the "ONE VERSE CHARLIE'S"

AS pASTOR ARNOLD mURRY OF THE SHEPARD'S CHAPEL ..

CALL'S THESE tpe of bible scolars..

or scolders... ck out his web site...U will learn more in five minutes than U will learn in 3 years or (as in the case of Alvin Glombowski...

former Holy Cross Brother..) in over 40 years of error in scripture understanding...

the apostle Paul talks about him and this problem.. in Ephesons 4;14-15

7But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it. 8This is why it[a] says:
"When he ascended on high,
he led captives in his train
and gave gifts to men."[b]

9(What does "he ascended" mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions[c]? 10He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.)

11 It was he who gave some to be apostles,

some to be prophets,

some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors

and teachers,

12 to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.

15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. 16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

Living as Children of Light


17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.

18
They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more.

Ya some of the stupid... roman catholics... rely on the 'LAW OF 1869" WHEN the rulers in the roman catholic church.. made it a "RULE" THAT THE POPE is always right .. when he spoke on faith and morals"

Ck out POPE LEO... the guy... that invented the POPE ship...

too bad that the roman catholic church... does not have the ability to teach and train.. the deciples.. on correct scripture .. interperation..

i guess that is why they "MURDERED" WYCLIFF, AND TENDALE..

OH well... TRUST ME ... SAYS THE POPE...

Pope Benedict XVI (Latin: Benedictus PP. XVI; Italian: Benedetto XVI; German: Benedikt XVI.; born Joseph Alois Ratzinger on 16 April 1927) is the 265th and reigning Pope, by virtue of his office of Bishop of Rome, the head of the Roman Catholic Church and, as such, Sovereign of the Vatican City State.[1


The Holy Father has revived many dormant traditions and introduced a few innovations of his ownReported by Fr. Guy Selvester.

The Papal Wardrobe




Virtually every article of clothing worn by the Pope carries meaning and history. In this photo, the strip of white wool decorated with crosses that he wears over his shoulders, called a pallium, evokes a style dating to the 11th century, when the Eastern Orthodox Church split from the Roman Catholic Church. It has been suggested that this gesture is intended as a way of reaching out to the Orthodox

Hi Roman Catholic,, Dont delay your confession . You will feel a great burden lifted once you do it. And make up your mind to make a good confession once a month at least ,after that. God bless!
P.S. I find it helpful to note down my sins on a piece of paper to read out to the priest if Im too nervous.

How to make a good Confession
[From the Catechism of Pope St Pius X:]

Q. How many conditions are necessary to make a good confession?
A. To make a good confession five things are necessary: (1) Examination of Conscience; (2) Sorrow for having offended God; (3) A resolution of sinning no more; (4) Confession of our sins; (5) Satisfaction or penance.

Q. What should we do first of all to make a good confession?
A. To make a good confession we should first of all earnestly beseech God to give us light to know all our sins and strength to detest them.

Q. How do you present yourself to the confessor?
A. I kneel at the feet of the confessor and I say: "Bless me, Father, for I have sinned."

Q. What do you do while the confessor blesses you?
A. I humbly bow my head to receive the blessing and I make the Sign of the Cross.

Q. Having made the Sign of the Cross what should you say?
A. Having made the sign of the Cross, I say: "I confess to Almighty God, to Blessed Mary ever Virgin, to all the Saints, and to you, my spiritual Father, that I have sinned."

Q. And then what must you say?
A. Then I must say: "I was at confession such a time; by the grace of God I received absolution, performed my penance, and went to Holy Communion." Then I accuse myself of my sins.

Q. Whey you have finished the accusation of your sins what must you do?
A. When I have finished the accusation of my sins I say: "I accuse myself also of all the sins of my past life, especially of those against such or such a virtue" -- for example, against purity or against the Fourth Commandment, etc.

Q. After this accusation what should you say?
A. I should say: "For all these sins and for those I do not remember, I ask pardon of God with my whole heart, and penance and absolution of you, my spiritual Father."

Q. Having thus finished the accusation of your sins what remains to be done?
A. Having finished the accusation of my sins I should listen respectfully to what the confessor says, accept the penance with a sincere intention of performing it; and, from my heart, renew my act of contrition while he gives me absolution.

Q. Having received absolution what remains to be done?
A. Having received absolution I should thank the Lord, perform my penance as soon as possible and put in practice the advice of the confessor.

Hi, hon. Confession is good for the soul, you'll see. It's a little scary, yes, because you don't want to be judged, but it's a relief when it's over and you realize that you're now free.

1. Find out when confession is at your chuch
2. Kneel before the confessional
3. Say you are sorry for sinning
4. State your sins
5. Say the Act of Contrition (it'll be on the wall since no one has it memorized)
6. Recieve your pennance
7. Do your pennance

And importantly, relax. You'll do fine.

Repent and confess to Jesus Christ....He will forgive you. Then you can tell anyone else if you like....a preist or anybody. Bring it to Jesus feet first I suggest.

In the cofessional, you say "bless me for I have sinned, It has been ____ years since my last confession, I broke the following commadments...#1,2,5,7,8,10." Done.

Just walk in and tell the priest, "Father forgive me for I have sinned, my last time since confession has been......... that I've forgotten how to do this right." Most priests will gently and happily guide you along, so don't worry about it.

confess to God himself in private for only he can forgive sin a priest cannot since he is just a man !

(Matt.6:6. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. )

I am not RC. I am Episcopalian. Follow what the person above me said. I wanted to add that if you are 'emotionally crashing down' you may want to talk to your priest in his office instead of a quicky confession. In my church we do our confessions face to face and with an appointment. But then most Episcopalians don't go to confessions so there is not a long line.

Go to the confessional and choose either screen or face to face.

Start of with bless me father for I have sinned.

Tell them how long it's been since your last confession.

Then confess your sins.

The priest will help you along if you don't remember what to do.

Maybe you should do a practice confession in private first.

It’s been said that “love makes the world go ‘round,” but this isn’t the case in some churches today. This was the problem with one of the churches in Revelation 2 as well. This lack of love for Christ was translating into problems in the community. On today’s broadcast of Truth For Life, hear what Jesus had to say to them.

lets not be 2 obvious.. grace.. or the anointing isaiah

25 Very soon my anger against you will end
and my wrath will be directed to their destruction."

26 The LORD Almighty will lash them with a whip,
as when he struck down Midian at the rock of Oreb;
and he will raise his staff over the waters,
as he did in Egypt.

27 In that day their burden will be lifted from your shoulders,
their yoke from your neck;
the yoke will be broken
because you have grown so fat. [c]

Do you think you’re wise? With so much education on issues and morals, we might think that the problems of the world would be solved by now. Instead, things are pretty much the same. The Bible describes the wisdom of this world, and on today’s broadcast of Truth For Life, we’ll hear what it has to say.
