QUESTION 20 — LOVE IN GOD 1.Is love found in God? 2. Does God love all things? 3. Does he love someone more than another? 4. Does he like the best people more? Article 1 — Is love found in God? Objections: 1. It seems not. For there is no passion in God. Love is a passion. So there is no love in God. 2 . Love, anger, sadness, etc. are distinguished as opposites in the same gender. However, sadness and anger are only attributed to God by metaphor. So also love. 3 . We read in Dionysius: “Love is a unifying force and a principle of cohesion. ” But this cannot find place in God, since it is simple. Such a force cannot find use in an absolutely simple being. On the contrary , we read in St. John (1 Jn 4:16): “God is love. ” Answer: We necessarily find love in God. In fact, the first movement of the will or of any appetitive faculty is love. For the act of the will, or the act of the appetite whatever it may be, is directed as to its own object towards good and towards evil. But the good is …More

A New York state appeals court ruled on 23 April that an insurance company for the Archdiocese of New York doesn't have to pay to settle 1,500 mostly homosexual abuse claims. The archdiocese called the ruling 'extremely disappointing' and 'wrong'. The five judges unanimously overturned a lower court's order from December 2023 that would have forced the insurer to pay. The insurance group had issued more than 30 liability policies to the archdiocese and several of its parishes, schools and institutions between 1956 and 2003. New laws enacted in 2019 (the Child Victims Act) and 2022 (the Adult Survivors Act) have opened the door to hundreds of previously time-barred claims. Some of the allegations date back to the 1930s (sic). "If allowed to stand, the decision will allow insurance companies to evade the contractual obligations of the policies they issue," Joseph Zwilling, director of communications for the archdiocese, told OSVNews.com (27 April). The case now heads to New York's highest …More

The fire of earth [Jesus in our heart] shines in heaven. It enlightens all those who take refuge in God, welcome him and accept to live with his light. To the young people gathered in Rome in 2000, Pope John Paul II said of Jesus: “He is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is he who provokes you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is he who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is he who reads in your hearts your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle. It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives.” World Youth Day, Prayer Vigil at Tor Vergata, August 19, 2000, number 5. Vatican Site: World Youth Day: vigil (Tor Vergata, August 19, 2000) | John Paul II Let’s put on the garment of light that leads us to the dawn of the new day. Let’s have the courage, the will, the desire to transform the world through Love, with God. The new American Bible, 2011-2014 Book: … for Love, Normand …More

To serve God – this is the task of our life, – the most important task, in the face of which everything is nothing, so that if we had tasted all the pleasures of the world, if we had gathered all the treasures of the earth, if we had possessed the crowns of all the kings, the fame of all the heroes, the wisdom of all the sages, if we had made both family and nation and all mankind happy: if we do not serve God, we are nothing and do not live at all, because our life is not life, but an illusion and a dream, followed by a terrible awakening. Unfortunately, such is the life of many. For some live only to please the senses and satisfy the lower animal needs, and condemn the spirit to darkness and slavery. The motto of their life is these words: “ Let us use the goods of the present, and let us partake of things created quickly. Let us fill ourselves with expensive wine and oils, and let us not pass the flower of time. Let us walk in wreaths of roses until they wither. . . let us leave signs …More

"So we have a church promoting Satan’s agenda — the Synodal Church —attacking the Catholic Church. It is a dark sign, but one that tells us which side we must choose. Catholics of good will might disagree about how to respond to this sign, but it seems that some fundamentals of the proper response are fairly evident: •We should adhere to the unadulterated Catholic Faith as it existed prior to Vatican II (even though we know the infiltration and corruption began well before the Council). •We need to reject all of the anti-Catholic errors about which the pre-Vatican II popes warned, many of which have found a home in the Synodal Church. •We should petition God’s grace and mercy as best we can, using the means all Christians have always employed to do so: prayer, penance, and avoidance of sin. •Whatever we think of Francis — anti-pope, worst pope in history, or false prophet — we can no longer have even the appearance of following him when he does anything other than promote unadulterated …More
