Last Supper

a) Reflection on God’s Word:

On Thursday evening Jesus celebrates the Last Supper with His apostles. The Passover is connected with the sacrificing of the lamb and with the Passover meal. This festival commemorates the passing over of Israel from the slavery of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Jesus came to deliver mankind from the slavery of sin and the devil.

Jesus wants mature people

Jesus wants mature people. He can do more with one mature person in a year than He can do with hundreds of immature people in 200 years. The mark of maturity is actually the degree of dying to self with Christ. The essence of this death to self is in humility, in completely renouncing at every moment one’s own will, one’s own good, one’s own ideas or desires, and accepting everything out of love for Jesus. People who are completely forgotten, buried, those who have died with Christ, mature souls, who have offered themselves as a sacrifice to Jesus – it is their sacrifice that decides the future of nations.

What is the greatest blessing?

The greatest blessing is when God gives us the grace to be evil spoken of, unjustly suspected, reproached and humiliated for His name’s sake. The Lord Jesus trod this path before us, because He loved us. He was completely innocent. Yet He forgave and prayed for everyone.

The most important thing is to persevere with Jesus abandoned, not to nourish the slightest bitterness towards anyone, to constantly encourage one another and remember: Of what spirit we should be?! Yes, of the Spirit of Christ, who is meek and lowly. We need to humble ourselves before God again and again by entering into the truth about ourselves: How much self-will, how many critical thoughts and words, how much unbelief when we acted without God, according to our own reason, feelings or wishes. How much have we suffered not in order to promote the things of God but our own interests instead! Life goes by. No day will return. What we have sown in faith is sown.

Think about what your cross is every day

Truly we know neither the day nor the hour, and nothing is more certain than death. Therefore, we have to redeem the time. How? By a living faith, by daily practising humility, that is, constantly renouncing our own wishes, good plans or intentions. Let us not stick to our own opinion, but bring everything to light, and humble ourselves every time we act spontaneously on our own. However, when others do something wrong, we should not condemn them but, again, humble ourselves in spirit: “Lord, I am twice as bad. I’ve made the same or even greater mistake so many times. And mine was a banal one that this person would never make.” Let us accept the concrete hardships as a cross to carry.

BCP: Critical review of Francis Bergoglio’s autobiographical book

19 March 2024

The media report that Bergoglio’s autobiographical book spanning over 300 pages is set to be released on 19 March 2024. In the book, Bergoglio mentions his resignation, stressing that in this respect it is “a distant hypothesis”, since he says there are “no serious reasons” for his resignation.

Commentary: As early as 2018, Bergoglio and his homo-network were publicly called upon to resign by C. M. Viganò, Nuncio Emeritus to the US, for very serious reasons. Moreover, the fact is that Bergoglio has already excommunicated himself from the Church owing to his pseudo-gospel (cf. Gal 1:8-9). He cannot therefore be its head, as Scripture, the Church Fathers, the Doctors of the Church and the dogmatic constitution confirm. Nevertheless, he continues to illegally occupy the papal office.

The pages of the autobiographical book also traverse the history of the Argentine dictatorship during General Jorge R. Videla’s regime. Bergoglio dwells on repeated accusations addressed to him of being complicit with the dictatorship, and therefore deliberately presents himself in his book as a saviour of vulnerable children and young people.

BCP: Lent 2024 – Time of Penance: Renounce Fiducia Supplicans! (Pastoral letter)

11 March 2024

The season of Lent in this extraordinary time of great apostasy is a time of urgent repentance. The statements of Jesus about repentance are relevant for each of us. “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Metanoite, change your mind and believe in the Gospel.” (Mk 1:15) “Unless you repent, you will all perish.” (Lk 13:3)

Word of Life – Heb. 11:6 (17/3/2024 – 31/3/2024)

“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him

must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.

Reflection on Heb 11:6

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him
must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.

This verse is part of the well-known chapter 11 of the Epistle to the Hebrews. It is preceded by the following five verses: “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was commended as a righteous man, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead. By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death; he could not be found, because God had taken him away. For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.” (Heb 11:1-5) Next, this chapter presents models of faith, such as Abraham, Moses, the prophets, and points out that not only are we saved through faith, but through faith God also works extraordinary miracles.

Hell is real

We need to talk about hell. It is hard to talk about this truth separately though. However, if we highlight the beauty of the Saviour as a contrast against this dark background, this is truly evangelization. Yes, hell is a real threat looming over everyone. But there is Jesus who came to save us from hell. Therefore, the fear of hell should be a strong impetus for us to sincerely repent and be saved.

A certain devout priest full of apostolic zeal carried out a mission in France for 40 years. In an audience with the Holy Father Pius IX in Rome, he gave a frank account of his missionary work. On this occasion, the Pope gave him an extremely useful advice: “Teach the great truths of salvation. Speak especially about hell. Do not conceal anything – and especially not about hell. Nothing so helps to awaken poor sinners and bring them to God as the truth about hell.”

Those who rejected Christ and salvation are in hell

Those who rejected Jesus will face Him as a Judge at the hour of death. In a single gaze they will see that He is not their friend, that He is not their Saviour, because they rejected Him again and again, stifled their conscience, believed in lies, systematically resisted the truth, Christ and good, all connected with salvation and the Gospel that was distorted by them. In that single moment they will see the fruit. St Bernard says that the very sins they committed will cry out saying: “We are your work; we shall not desert you.” And St John Chrysostom: “The wounds of Jesus will accuse you. Your sins will reproach you. The cross of Christ, which was the means of bringing salvation to you, will rise up against you.”

So the principal cause of damnation lies in man’s refusal to believe, to receive God’s truth, and in his choice to believe the devil’s lies. As Jesus says in the parable of the rich man and Lazarus: “They will not believe, though one should rise from the dead!” Why not? Because they do not want to believe, do not want to receive the truth.

The greatest suffering in hell is the separation of the soul from God

The truth about hell is indeed very serious and is linked with our salvation. If we take seriously the eternity of hell, we are also aware of the seriousness of the entire teaching of Christ about salvation based on this fact – Christ came into the world, God became man to deliver us from the bondage of the devil, to deliver us from hell and to give us a new life – eternal life. “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish – in hell – but have eternal life.” (Jn 3:16) God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.” (1Jn 5:11-12) You either have Jesus or you do not. The greatest suffering in hell is the punishment of separation.

Word of Life – Heb 9:27 (3/3/2024 – 17/3/2024)

“People are destined to die once and then face judgment.

Reflection on Heb 9:27

People are destined to die once and then face judgment.

The next verse 28 reads: “So also Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him.”

The proverb says: A wise person thinks about the end, that is, death. But it is not enough to think about death, we must also think about eternity, which can be either happy or unhappy. The condition for a happy eternity is to keep our faith in Jesus Christ, because the Scripture says: Whoever believes in Him will be saved. The best preparation for death and eternity is through an act of perfect contrition. This consists in admitting your sinfulness to yourself and to God, looking with faith at the cross of Jesus, and calling on His name.

BCP: Basics of the Interior Prayer /Part 1/

In interior prayer, it is necessary to realize the essential truths that concern each person individually, namely death, God’s judgment, and eternity. Christian contemplation has traditionally focused on two areas. The first area is the last things of man, and the second is Christ’s suffering and His death. We return to these spiritual sources even now.
