Don't go to church to find a wife. The purpose of the church is to worship God and partake in the sacraments. Now, if you end up with a relationship and get married to a girl at church, cool, but that shouldn't be the reason why you go there.
Therefore, I beg Blessed Mary Ever-Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, blessed John the Baptist,the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and all the Saints, to pray to the Lord our God for me.
The Sexual Revolution that truly began the degeneration of the West was not in the 20th century, but the 16th, with the assertions that:
—Marriage is not a sacrament;
—Divorce is allowed; and
—Consecrated virginity/celibacy is not a higher vocation.
The roots of it all.

I don't see why people have such an obsession with John Brown. Out of the all people to choose from in this time period, you choose him lol
Hail, Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
"Reading the Bible a lot leads to heresy" which is a terrible argument. Blaming the holy scriptures instead of the sinfulness of the heretic is an interesting argument.
A powerful argument against Sola Scriptura. The people reading it most are heretics, according to this.
Confirms exactly what the Fathers said, that heresies start as private interpretations of Scripture.
May holy Mary, Mother of our God and Lord Jesus Christ, and all the Holy, Righteous, and Elect of God, make intercession for us sinners to the same God our Lord: that we may be accounted worthy to obtain from him help and salvation. Who liveth and reigneth for ever and ever.
I'm honestly happy I became a Christian it feels like I finally have a purpose. I can rest in knowing I have a heavenly Father who will never abandon me.
Honestly the more I look into eastern orthodoxy the less I like it. You literally have to bury your head in the sand because of church history. Since you have to lie by saying the Apostle's actually venerated icons guys I can't take the tradition serious.
The Trinitarian tradition is on notice.
Unitarianism is on the rise and will overcome the 1700 year old lie that Jesus is God; that God is any person, self, or being other than the father alone.
Join us as we storm the dark trinitarian cathedral with the blazing light of truth.
A mini🧵 on the architecture in the Kingdom of Kongo
Walls and fences defined the thought and philosophy of Kongo architecture. The reason for this is because the fences obviously defined the individual plot, but most importantly, they served as paths and guided passersby's so
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

It's funny how this critique doesn't go towards the people in central Europe and Britain since they didn't produce any renowned intellects until Rome came and civilized the barbarians they encountered.
“Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners... Amen”
Sola Scriptura is the most intuitive position to hold to compared to any other view. Since everyone agrees that scripture is infallible it's on the other side to prove that there is something alongside scripture that is infallible and has the same authority as God's word.
I haven't been the best Protestant since I've been too focused on the father's instead of the scriptures. I'm gonna focus more on scripture and understand it first before diving deep into the father's.
Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
When it comes to theology in my opinion the west is just miles ahead of the Eastern church. The west has more precision and depth when it comes to theology. So the only options for people today who want a tradition with substance it's either historical Protestants or RC.
RCs and EOs really turn the study of the church fathers into idol fixations rather than a genuine academic and spiritual study. Tbh it's just turning the church fathers into a new talmud.
