Life Everlasting I believe in the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Life Everlasting I believe in the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. Which is our resurrection body? Will you look identical to how you did when you died? Or the body you had at your peak of vitality? So if you met someone at one age, you won’t recognise them in heaven because they will look much older – or much younger… We eat; the food is material for our cells to reproduce. Old cells die. Each of us has about 75 trillion cells. Red blood cells live for about four months, while white blood cells live on average more than a year. Skin cells live about two or three weeks. Cells in your bones change about 10% a year. Remembering your maths skills of how to calculate compound interest, your bones, your skeleton changes completely every 7 years. There’s only one or two types of cells that don’t get replaced – even that statement is complicated… It’s a bit like photocopying isn’t it? Cells making a copy of a copy of a copy… Ultimately the copies are of too poor q

Dictionary : VERNACULAR IN LITURGY https://shar.es/aW3cAL Catholic Dictionary Term VERNACULAR IN LITURGY Definition The use of the common spoken language of the people in the Catholic liturgy. It was authorized on principle by the Second Vatican Council, declaring that "since the use of the vernacular, whether in the Mass, the administration of the sacraments, or in other parts of the liturgy, may frequently be of great advantage to the people, a wider use may be made of it" (Constitution on the Liturgy, I, 36). In practice, within ten years of the Council, the vernacular became the norm in the Roman Rite, and the use of Latin the exception. All translations had to be approved by the Holy See. To obviate difficulties about meaning, Rome declared that "a vernacular translation of a sacramental formula . . . must be understood in accordance with the mind of the Church as expressed in the original Latin text" (Instauratio Liturgica, January 25, 1974). (Etym. L

Language Barriers

Language Barriers Stephen P. White THURSDAY, JUNE 17, 2021 Liturgy can be a very divisive and contentious matter in the life of the Church. It is a sad reality that the setting in which we are most perfectly united to each other – literally “in communion” with one another – can become a source of division and disunity. It is one thing when these division arise over aesthetic preferences, or generational divides, or even serious disagreements about the theology of the Eucharist. But in recent decades there’s been another kind of division that has received much less notice. It begins with a story we all know well by now: The Second Vatican Council opened to the promise of a new engagement of the Church with the modern world but was followed promptly by a period of dramatic upheaval in Catholic life. Men abandoned the priesthood; monasteries and (especially) convents emptied; Catholic marriage rates began a long decline from which they have not recovered; Mass attendance fell; sacramen

Pope Francis: Mass in vernacular helps people understand God, live the faith Mar 9, 2015 by Carol Glatz, Catholic News Service Vatican ROME — Allowing priests to celebrate Mass in the language of the local congregation rather than in Latin allowed the faithful to understand and be encouraged by the word of God, Pope Francis said. "You cannot turn back. We have to always go forward, always forward and who goes back is making a mistake," he told parishioners after commemorating the 50th anniversary of the first time a pope celebrated Mass in the vernacular following the Second Vatican Council. "Let us give thanks to the Lord for what he has done in his church in these 50 years of liturgical reform. It was really a courageous move by the church to get closer to the people of Go

Sadly, this same observation applies equally to the vast majority of schools …

Proof of a Soul from the Transcendentals and Our Interior Sense of God

Proof of a Soul from the Transcendentals and Our Interior Sense of God by Magis Center | Feb 07, 2021 | Proof of a Soul from the Transcendentals and Our Interior Sense of God Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedIn Gmail Around the world there is a consistent awareness of and belief in a deity which stands at the foundation of the world’s religions. Many people seek a connection with a higher or transcendent power that has made itself known to us through the internal spiritual or mystical awareness of and desire for God that each individual has. Throughout history, philosophers, theologians, and psychologists have written extensively on this internal awareness of a higher power which most religions call “God.” They identify eight major indications of this “interior sense of God”: The awareness of and desire for perfect truth The awareness of and desire for perfect love The awareness of and desire for perfect justice/goodness The awareness of and desire for perfect beauty The a

The Trial ----The-Trial-novel-by-Kafka

The Trial novel by Kafka The Trial, German Der Prozess, novel by visionary German-language writer Franz Kafka, originally published posthumously in 1925. One of Kafka’s major works, and perhaps his most pessimistic, this surreal story of a young man who finds himself caught up in the mindless bureaucracy of the law has become synonymous with the anxieties and sense of alienation of the modern age and with an ordinary person’s struggle against an unreasoning and unreasonable authority. It is often considered to be an imaginative anticipation of totalitarianism. Summary The narrative emerges from the book’s opening sentence: “Somebody must have slandered Joseph K., for one morning, without having done anything wrong, he was arrested.” It is K.’s 30th birthday, and a pair of guards have arrived at his boardinghouse to inform him that he is under arrest. He is shortly summoned before the inspector, who is in the bedroom of another tenant. The inspector does not know what the charges ar

EVANGELIUM VITAE To the Bishops Priests and Deacons Men and Women religious lay Faithful and all People of Good Will on the Value and Inviolability of Human Life

IOANNES PAULUS PP. II EVANGELIUM VITAE To the Bishops Priests and Deacons Men and Women religious lay Faithful and all People of Good Will on the Value and Inviolability of Human Life INTRODUCTION 1. The Gospel of life is at the heart of Jesus' message. Lovingly received day after day by the Church, it is to be preached with dauntless fidelity as "good news" to the people of every age and culture. At the dawn of salvation, it is the Birth of a Child which is proclaimed as joyful news: "I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people; for to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord" (Lk 2:10-11). The source of this "great joy" is the Birth of the Saviour; but Christmas also reveals the full meaning of every human birth, and the joy which accompanies the Birth of the Messiah is thus seen to be the foundation and fulfilment of joy at every child born into the world (cf. Jn 16:21). W
