@archdpdx At 42 minutes, the Archbishop speaks about the Pope having received false information regarding the attitude of Traditional communities towards the Church. This is completely untrue for where I went at the time. It was anti-Church there.
In light of the recent excommunications involving the Society of St. Pius X, Archbishop Alexander K. Sample discusses what it means to be in full communion with the Church, how Vatican II must be interpreted in continuity with Sacred Tradition rather than through a hermeneutic of rupture, why confusion followed the Council, and why Catholics cannot separate themselves from the authority of the Holy Father.

Gospel of the Day (John 11,19-27)
Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother [Lazarus, who had died].
When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him; but Mary sat at home.
Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
But even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."
Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise."
Martha said to him, "I know he will rise, in the resurrection on the last day."
Jesus told her, "I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live,
and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"
She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one who is coming into the world."

@robbertleusink@AndreasNL Wat jij niet schijnt te begrijpen Robbert is dat de Kerk vanaf Jezus woorden nooit iets anders heeft verkondigd! Dus blijven het inderdaad dezelfde woorden of dezelfde strekking!
@robbertleusink@AndreasNL Of je doet het niet en blijft buiten de grenzen van de Kerk. Ik ga lekker lopen met de Hond wetende dat ik in eenheid ben met de Kerk!
Gospel of the Day (Matthew 13,36-43)
Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples approached him and said, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field."
He said in reply, "He who sows good seed is the Son of Man,
the field is the world, the good seed the children of the kingdom. The weeds are the children of the evil one,
and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
Just as weeds are collected and burned (up) with fire, so will it be at the end of the age.
The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will collect out of his kingdom all who cause others to sin and all evildoers.
They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.
Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears ought to hear."

At the heart of Jesus’ teachings lies the mystery of the Kingdom of God, which today’s Gospel likens to treasure and a pearl (cf. Mt 13:44–52). The parables convey the surprise of those who find something far beyond what they could have hoped for, so much so that selling or leaving everything behind no longer seems a sacrifice, but a gain.
Firmly rooted in the Word of Jesus, reading the Gospel every day, never stop dreaming of a land where there is peace and fraternity, nor stop looking at the world with wonder, nor stop facing the future with the light of hope. Do not let anything or anyone steal your hope.
Gospel of the Day (Matthew 13,31-35)
Jesus proposed a parable to the crowds. "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a person took and sowed in a field.
It is the smallest of all the seeds, yet when full-grown it is the largest of plants. It becomes a large bush, and the 'birds of the sky come and dwell in its branches.'"
He spoke to them another parable. "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of wheat flour until the whole batch was leavened."
All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables. He spoke to them only in parables,
to fulfill what had been said through the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will announce what has lain hidden from the foundation of the world."

Gospel of the Day (Matthew 13,44-52)
Jesus said to his disciples: “The Kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field, which a person finds and hides again, and out of joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls.
When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it".
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net thrown into the sea, which collects fish of every kind.
When it is full they haul it ashore and sit down to put what is good into buckets. What is bad they throw away.
Thus it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out and separate the wicked from the righteous
and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.
Do you understand all these things? They answered, "Yes."
And he replied, "Then every scribe who has been instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like the head of a household who brings from his storeroom both the new and the old."

Kardinaal Sarah bekritiseert in hart van EU een mentaliteit die zich ziet "als de enige mogelijke rationele cultuur, waarbij elke andere visie op de mensheid –te beginnen met de christelijke– wordt gedegradeerd tot bijgeloof dat moet worden gecorrigeerd."

@HenkRijkers Toch wel Henk. Luister hier eens naar, het zijn zijn neven. Heel interessant! Onderbouwd met de bijbel en de kerkvaders. Ik zou even luisteren. Het is maar kort maar het echt waard! https://t.co/2C6tyfHGqS
Gospel of the Day (Matthew 13,18-23)
Jesus said to His disciples: "Hear then the parable of the sower.
The seed sown on the path is the one who hears the word of the kingdom without understanding it, and the evil one comes and steals away what was sown in his heart.
The seed sown on rocky ground is the one who hears the word and receives it at once with joy.
But he has no root and lasts only for a time. When some tribulation or persecution comes because of the word, he immediately falls away.
The seed sown among thorns is the one who hears the word, but then worldly anxiety and the lure of riches choke the word and it bears no fruit.
But the seed sown on rich soil is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields a hundred or sixty or thirtyfold."

@robbertleusink@fsspx_utrecht Dat is jammer als je dat doet! Maar ja je hebt je hart ook al geblokkeerd voor de Kerk die Jezus hier op aarde heeft gesticht. Het zou dus wel consequent zijn. Ik zal wat ook doet voor je blijven bidden.
@robbertleusink@fsspx_utrecht Wat is in hemelsnaar voor jullie nu het eeuwige Rome? De Kerk wordt geleid door de Heilige Geest tot op de dag van vandaag. probeer mij nu eens uit te leggen wat dat betekend. Eeuwige Rome?
