RE: God and the supernatural. | Jay | Friday, October 16, 2009 |
Question: Dear Brother Ignatius, I have seen homosexuality in nature. I have seen a Wiccan exorcist rid a house of a demon (or malovalent spirit). I get that faith is a powerful thing, but who are we to say that Buddah isn't the all powerful God... Krishna, maybe Zues, Ra, mayby Osiris, his Virgin wife Isis with their son, Horus who died on the cross preaching his Father's word to the world. Maybe we have it all wrong. What then? |

Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM
Dear Jay: I am sorry to hear that you think your opinion, of a mere human, outranks God's opinion. This is a Catholic Q&A yet you post here? Odd. Given that this is a Catholic Q&A, I give Catholic answers; what do you expect? Those Catholic answers that are official Church teachings, as I have discussed with you about sex and homosexuality, are not my opinions, but the commandments of God. This reminds me of what God said about this arrogance of yours in the book of Job, when God responded to man's impertinence (Job 38:1-18):
The rest of the chapter goes on like this. God is our creator and the creator of the Universe. It is He, not you, or me, or the Church, who determines what's what, what is natural, what is normal, what is sin, and what is righteous. God is the creator of sex and marriage, He is the God of all knowledge. We are nothing, except in our own arrogant eye. You say that you are a Christian, but now you say have "nothing against God or His Word". That is a lie. You have everything against God's word, because you deny it. God's Word says:
God's Word also says Romans 1:18-32:
Furthermore, Jesus said in John 14:15: "If you love me, you will do as I command." You have chosen to violate the commandments of God and involve yourself in witchcraft, even after hearing the truth, and thus commit a grave sin against the First Commandment. In addition, despite being told the truth you have decided to flip your nose at God concerning sex. Thus, you do not love God, you are hostile to God's word because you trample all over it. You also blaspheme God in trashing His Church. Jesus, personally founded the Catholic Church, who do you think you are to trash her. Catholic dogma NEVER changes; no one can change it, not even a Pope. Who do you think you are to spit on the words of Jesus in Matthew 16:18-19: "And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." God gave us the Church to protect the faith from corruption by people with their own agendas. The Church has protected that Faith of the Apostles, which can be proven by documentary evidence of manuscripts from the first three centuries of the Christian Faith in which the Church Fathers explained the faith. The Catholic Church has not changed those teachings in 2000 years. Where did you get your "interpretations"? Where is your authority to interpret? God's word says that interpretation is not to be done privately (2 Peter 1:20): "First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation." The interesting thing about Truth is that Truth is not dependent upon your opinion. Truth is truth despite your opinion. You have been told the objective truth. It is now your decision to accept it or become futile in [your] thinking and [have your] senseless [mind] darkened. Claiming to be wise, [you] became [a fool]. Your immortal soul is at risk. I would advise you give up your arrogance and pride before it is too late and you find yourself separated from God forever. We will be praying for your soul, God Bless,
