Truth should never be whispered. Deo Gratias

But since the FACTS TOTALLY CONTRADICT WHAT HE SAYS AND SHOW THEM TO BE FALSE perhaps it shouldn't even be whispered especially as he reveals (inadvertently?) that he doesn't actually KNOW WHAT IT SAYS, he shouldn't be feeding the vile false rumours & reports, but, when people leap to praise him & encourage such behaviour it should give pause to Orthodox & Catholic alike to consider the gravest sin of gossip carried to the point of encouraging scandal if not schism.
You have spoken the truth, Father. God bless you! 💖
czcams.com/video/pnrAHLuOLYQ/video.htmlsi=SeLnh6A8EuU26tDc
No, he didn't speak the truth about what the Pope or the document said. In fact he totally reversed it. The Catholic teaching he then presented was what the Pope & the document actually taught . Shameful.
God bless you Father.

Merry Christmas
irregular is new word for sinful relationships. Pray for our Pope😢
Watered down word for weak minded.
czcams.com/video/pnrAHLuOLYQ/video.htmlsi=SeLnh6A8EuU26tDc
But the Pope & the document HAVE NOT, REPEAT- VERY CLEARLY- NOT SUGGESTED ANY JUSTIFICATION OF SUCH ACTS OR ANY CHANGE IN CHURCH TEACHING WHATSOEVER. Pray for the people spreading scandal, and false stories that undermine the Church. Pray that the Pope be protected from these perverse attacks.
@@josephodoherty7864 I pray for our Church and our Pope - Francis the man is a communist - he is also a Jesuit and I and many other Catholics do not trust what he says because his actions contradict what he says. Are you familiar with his background? God bless
Love you father 👏👏👏👏💕💕💕💕👏👏💕💕
Thank you Father for your courage to speak the Truth.
May many more shepherds be like you!
Not "irregular relationship" but unnatural and abominable relationship
czcams.com/video/pnrAHLuOLYQ/video.htmlsi=SeLnh6A8EuU26tDc
POPE BENEDICT XVI: ‘Everywhere, on every continent, to whatever people one
belongs, every human being is a child of that same Father who is in heaven, and is a brother or sister of everyone else. Christians should treat all people lovingly as members of God’s one family. The Christian community is open to everyone, as all people are capable of knowing the truth of God’s love. Christianity is a living faith open to everyone, and gives witness to God’s love for all people. Therefore, Christians are to slander no one, to be peaceable, considerate, exercising graciousness toward everyone.”
Thank you Fr Stanislaus , God Bless you .

Our lady of Revelation, ora pro nobis.
Our Lady said to St Bernadette....Repentence repentence
BANG! You hit the exact same criticism that Cdl Mueller has. Without repentance, there can be no blessing. This "blessing" is a new creation by Cdl Fernandez. It is a new false sacrament created in the Church that gives affirmation to sin. I agree with Cdl Mueller, this "blessing" is blasphemy, nothing more and nothing less.
It is not a Sacrament. Christ instituted seven Sacraments. You probably meant to write sacramental.
@@johnbradbury4000 Thanks for that! I should have said "anti-sacrament". Sacraments are rites instituted by Jesus to confer grace from God. This is an anti-rite instituted by a heretic Pope that deceives the gay couple and confers damnation on all involved, the "couple", the priest and on up to the Pope. I am going to refer to it as an anti-sacrament to others as it translates the full meaning of what it actually is.
Blessing a reality that is contrary to creation is not only impossible, it is blasphemy. Cardinal Gerhard L. Müller
John Brown - melody- was fanatical - like you ultra orthodox. Read the actual document.
You do not understand what blasphemy actually is - neither does Cdl. Mueller
Spot on Father. God bless you and other courages clergy who are standing by what God has said about irregular relationship especially on same sex rather than Pope Francis Louise Australia
czcams.com/video/pnrAHLuOLYQ/video.htmlsi=SeLnh6A8EuU26tDc
He is courageous indeed. I pray for him.
Just the exact opposite. The Pope & the document taught the opposite of what he presented and in reality taught what he then presented as though correcting the Pope . Don't let him turn this around and slander Pope Francis. At best this was incredibly nasty and irresponsible .
Thank you for not being afraid to be canceled by Bergolio.

Respect the Pope, Luther.
The Truth hurts doesn't it , carlito! Yhe demons that you seem to be listening to and that are probably around you can be expelled by a good, honest, open and proper confession to a properly ordained Roman Catholic priest....but I am probably the only one you might know, so I will at least pray for you.@@CarlosAlexandre-fl2ut
I suspect that some of these insulting attacks on the Pope, magesterium & the action of the Holy Spirit in the election of the Pope aren't even written by Catholics however heretical but by subversive anticatholics. The childish playground reference to the Pope by his surname and refusing to use the title Pope (Francis) is NOT justified by anyone/ with the authority in the magesterium or any legitimate basis beyond one's own convoluted & circular logic, to make the outrageous claim that the Pope (&, indeed, the previous two Popes weren't really Popes). Such claims are heretical and shameful but it's proponents seem to be growing ever more prideful & entrenched and to have regarded themselves from very early in their breaking of their vows of obedience to view themselves as above the Magesterium and to be the way ,truth & light by which the Magesterium, the Pope, the Bible, Tradition, and Church teaching should be judged. Saying rosaries (which we should do) and masses in Latin (which I appreciate & do attend as well as N.O. mass) adds no justification or righteous weight to this superficially pious but schismatic heresy.

Greetings from Brazil.
There is no such thing as sin now, everything is "cool". I've an idea that God thinks differently. We need to have national days of repentence and remind people that sin is still not, and never will be "cool".
Only God has the right to judge! James 4:12
Repent! Thank you Father for this clarification of the Gospel!
czcams.com/video/pnrAHLuOLYQ/video.htmlsi=SeLnh6A8EuU26tDc
It's the clarification that the Pope & the document made !! This vile polemic presented a strawman DISTORTING WHAT THE POPE & DOCUMENT SAID before stating the same teaching as though correcting Pope Francis. Vile & despicable scandal mongering. Utterly shameful.
For an alternative and contrary opinion hear Fr. Mark Goring and Fr. Ianuzzi
Repentance is required in order to receive salvation. You cannot get to heaven living like the devil.
The Lord is with you.
The holy father and the son Jesus and the Holy Spirit son's, love you.

The gravity of sin, especially sodomy, is not being taught from the leadership in the church. They are negligent in care for our souls. We cannot give the impression that anything like that is ok. Souls perish after this life because no one warns them, and people don't understand the gravity of sin.
And disloyalty towards the Vicar of Christ may have VERY serious consequences - better think hard about your motives for what you say
THIRD SECRET OF FATIMA - its leaking through "Đavolja noć" series by author Adam Medvidović, written in a form of a novel. Its purposely written in hard language to avoid echo of christian whistleblowing.
The third Secret Fatima, there will be a son of Jesus born by the Holy Spirit in 1964. My father is perfect the corruption. The steeling will be exposed very soon. Believe on the holy father. Amen
Amos 3:3 "Shall two walk together except they be agreed?"
Well said. It has been said that many priests and bishops "Self Procalim" to be of the alphabet orientation. 50% of Priest and some 50% to 70% of bishops supposedly are of this disordered persuasion.
To these Type of Priests, Bishops, Cardinals or clergy of any kind, i say Repent and step down from your ministry. You have not been called by God to represent Him. You are polluted streams that will never bring forth clean pure waters of faith.
When someone with your disorder comes looking for help to break free from their sinful lifestyle, do you endorse them in their sin or do you tell them that their sin could land them in hell?
Do you call them to the hard reality that, they Have not yet struggled with sin to the point of shedding blood as Jesus did in the Garden of Gathesmane?
Hell or at a minimum a severely long stay in purgatory awaits every sinner who fails to Repent with a sncere purpose of amending their life when confessing their sins.
This documant approved by Pope Francis is straight out of the pit of hell.
God does not bless sin. Yes He loves sinners, and He desires to not lose anyone. But if we choose to ignore what God says is sin, and if we chose to believe that God will accept us while freely choosing sin over conversion, the only one we are deceiving is ourselves, and the only thing that awaits us is the eternal torments of hell, where "the worm never dies, and the fire never goes out".
REPENT AND BELIEVE IN THE GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST, AND DO THE GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST.
Dont deceive yourselves any longer, hell is a real place and its torments never end.
If you cannot suffer a little bit now by denying your inordinate desires and lusts, how will you be able to endure the fires of hell?
Once we depart this life through death its too late. Repent now and Return to God now.
This life is too short to compromise our eternsl souls.
Great comments...thank you !
@@americancristerosare you really Catholic? I doubt it. Because if you are then you would know that we Catholics are very serious in taking God's word to heart. Hence John 1:8-10 is very true to you..
"If we say, “We are without sin,” we deceive ourselves,* and the truth is not in us. If we acknowledge our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from every wrongdoing. If we say, “We have not sinned,” we make him a liar, and his word is not in us."
Jesus was very clear, he is the only Judge. Leave the judging to Him and consecrate on your core values as prescribed by His Church.
May God have mercy on all of us. I reply not because I want but it is now too much. It has become like a circus.
If you are a Monk, please go back to praying and let us continue praying..that is what God would require of us instead of being entangled with this downtrodden worldview and living. Amen
AMEN

Does a couple that has kids and never got married an irregular relationship?
Yes
In short, yes, I am afraid so. However, this does not necessarily mean your "irregular relationship" is without grace. I would have to know more your particular situation to answer more definitely. As for your children, I pray that you have at least introduced them to the Holy Sacraments. I pray you and your partner DESIRE to regularize your relationship and that you have a good, faithful priest available to you to properly guide you. Please know that I am available to you at any time. I will pray for you and all of your family and I ask if you will please pray for me. God bless you and God love you all!
@@americancristeros I have no kids and am an athiest..was just interested in what that term really meant by the dictator of the vatican and what was being read into.
Howdy! Which term do you refer to? @@vdoggydogg3922
@motorcitymonks irregular relationships..everyone jumped to gay people when it was never actually stated.
What Father is saying- that people today do not want to repent- is true! If they repented: they wouldn’t be proud anymore!
Most Catholics do not know the full story of Bernadette of Lourdes.
With her father punished for a crime he did not commit, her story of undeserved poverty extended to the social rejection to which she had to conform. Less than the mud in which she knelt, so she must consider herself. She is such creature, ignorant, hungry, without guilt, to whom the Immaculate Conception addresses her message and redeems her socially. The priest of her town and her mother try to complain about her audacity. The established clericality did not see a way in which inherited social sins could be washed away. To affirm that the virgin would have lowered herself to interact with her is something that today we understand is the constant style of our lady. The liberation of the oppressed is at the center of the Christian message. And in the eyes of heaven there is no one who cannot be liberated. However, in the modern age we have encountered an issue that is beyond the liberating capacity of Providence. Homosexuality is that case. But we are cautious and avoid taking power away from God by affirming that it is the will, the desire to remain in vice, that condemns those persons. And we defend that border with ardour, with fervor. We do not look for the exit but rather we take pleasure in facing the wall where we are going to trap and stone them. Softening the tone of the Vatican document so that it can be applied only if there is a request for forgiveness involved is a tricky way to annul it.
The world has fallen into this same dead end. We are discarding all those that are not functional. That is why we have also fallen into excesses, such as woke culture. because it is our version of the other rules that we put in place to boost the functionality of those that we see rejected. But before this movement it can be seen that the same thing happens with everyone because we impose a certification model on each other to give us social and economic rights. This is the throwaway culture that Pope Francis refers to. It is not a throwaway culture only among clerics but absolutely imposed on society. We are convinced, for example, that people with different neurological conditions must be protected and reduced to operational employment to earn their living. In reality, they could never be able to generate that livelihood and therefore it makes no sense to try to teach them trades that they are not going to practice anyway or that are not going to give them economic freedom. At the center of our hearts is that anyone who fails to meet the goals we set must be discarded or submitted. but Christ was stubborn. He stubbornly opened the eyes and ears of the blind and the deaf, stubbornly he made the paralytic walk and dry up the woman's bleeding. He stubbornly asked the apostles to "give them something to eat" in the face of the lack of the unprepared people, and he let his disciples suffer until they found a generous young man who shared what he had brought. Here suits us to reflect on a comment from Pope Francis, that those who criticize him for everything have attacked little. Pope Francis gave a catechesis saying that the multiplication of the loaves and fishes did not mean accumulations of food in the baskets. He explained that each one took what they needed from the same five loaves and two fish that the young man brought. Anything that we believe cannot be solved together, we have to address. and just as Dismas remained a thief throughout the history of the church, as the adulterous woman did not say anything about changing, as the prostitute could only cry in front of Christ, so the five loaves and the two fish remained how they were. When we have understood that God does not change the limits of the sinner by decree but by contagion of charity, we will find solutions to these apparently irredeemable cases.
AMEN
no God doesn’t hate but he also gave us the ten commandments his laws to obey.

Our Lord chose to mix with sinners and outcasts the " righteous" were apalled. Luke 7 32.
Jesus forgave repentant sinners. He also told them to go and sin no more. Jesus didn't bless sinful behavior.
@@user-ki2vh1uc5k that of course is correct - but he did deliberately engage them
Jesus did minister to sinners. He came to save them from their sins. Jesus is merciful and just. He told sinners to go and sin no more. Jesus never affirmed their sinful behaviors.
They should learn the blessing procedure of Shaolin Fighting Monks, they ask Buddha to bless you before they kill you. That is a blessing indeed, it is bad enough they have to get rid of bad karma for you.
Father, tell me: Where shall this end?
I am not certain. However, what I am certain of is that I am going to die and you are going to die...our own particular judgment will come soon enough, so we must remain focused on that.

A priest who thinks being woke a sin.Truly, an USAMERICAN priest!
Seriously. How many of you have actually read "Fiducia Supplicans"?
Pope Francis does not care for "Father forgive me for I have sinned...". Which means that unrepentant sinners can expect a blessing to CONTINUE in their sins and thereafter into hell!
I fail to see how the blessing of people is evil. Also, I fail to see how sexual relations are evil. I do see how war and poverty and racism and greed and authoritarianism are evil.

Lof of bearing false witness against the Pope. May God forgive you
Pope Francis is very clear that marriage is for man and woman alone, to be open to both love and life and that no other sexual union outside of this is ordained by God or can be blessed by God! As lies were told of Jesus Christ at His trial, so too even now of Pope Francis by modern day elders! Those who claim Pope Francis teaches heresy and error, are themselves ignorant of Catholic teaching and Canon Law and Holy Scripture! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink
Thank you for your attempt at "clarification"...lookout, your "Sophist slip" is showing.....

Your faith has no room for Grace and therefore is not the Christian and Catholic faith. The well have no need of a physician.
When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: 'Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?' On hearing this, Jesus said to them, 'It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners (Mark 2:16-17).
You r right on. Repentance is the word removed by VCII.

It is not doctrine, as it is not ex cathedra. However, it is certainly blasphemy. We should never bless anyone who is not repentant and living purposefully in mortal sin.
Doctrine does not have to come "ex cathedra"....that has only happened twice in Church history.

Domine Jesu, Tuam Catholicam periclitantem Ecclesiam protege, confusione et erroribus perfusam.
Everything you are saying the documents says to do is actually refuted by the document itself. The whole deal is that blessings cannot be extended willy nilly to people in these disordered relationships, but they need to be "recognizing themselves to be destitute and in need of [God's] help" so that they can be "enriched, healed, and elevated by the presence of the Holy Spirit". The blessing also cannot be done in a way that is confusing or give the impression that their relationship is being condoned. The bad actors who want to twist the words and do evil in the name of this document are people who already twist the word of God and do evil while claiming to hold to catholic doctrine. Blame (and most importantly pray for) these wicked people, not the vatican. As catholics, we are bound to the teachings of the magisterium as even infalliable ones such as this are preserved free from any grave error that can be harmful to souls. To suggest otherwise is to cause scandal ad bearing false witness which is a grave sin.
So a gay couple shows up at your church, civil marriage certificate in hand with photogs and wedding party, and wants to be blessed. Do you think they "recognize themselves to be destitute and in need of Gods help" and if so, why are they showing up as a couple with their honeymoon booked after the wedding ceremony at the church? Also, this is not an infallible teaching .
Sorry to be a grammar Nazi but Catholic is upper case always. Just like satan is always lower in spite of what Google's spell check suggests, but we already know about Google and the team they play for ;)
Well, I appreciate your willingness to enter into a conversation. However, I pray you have now read the Cdl. Muller response which is precisely the same thing I was saying. Ylur willingness to accept this is also your willingness to contrinbute in and support this EVIL coming from the Vatican. Our Faith is NOT the POPE or the Vatican. However, it seems to me your thoughtful response may also, now, be helping you to re-think and adjust your perception and acceptance of what is truly Catholic. Try making an argument WITHOUT this wayward magisterium....I bet you cannot do it! Please, continue to pray for me! God bless you and God love you!
Sophists like you are the reason these documents will continue to be regurgitated out
There have been popes who have been in heresy, and it took courageous people to challenge them. Some popes relented, some did not. The fact that people question may not be a bad thing. You are incorrect concerning the magisterium. It is a guide, but not infallible. Infallible statements are made in specific circumstances and declared as such; as this letter was not. It is neither infallible nor worthy of support. Take the Apparition of Fatima, for example. The Church teaches it is worthy of belief; however, it is not binding on a Faithful Christian, as say, the Nicene Creed. This means that you are not required to believe in said apparition in order to remain a Faithful Catholic!
Blessing a reality that is contrary to creation is not only impossible, it is blasphemy. Cardinal Gerhard L. Müller
Hypocrite of hatred speaks for the evil one. God.doesnt hate.

Stop that silly music
"Today you will be with me in paradise." This phrase was said by Jesus Christ on the cross to an accomplished thief. This thief did NOT stop being a thief at that moment. His condition as an abuser of other people's property remains in Catholic ideology to this day. "The good thief" is the only saint declared directly by the Savior, precisely at Calvary. He did not gain heaven by stopping his sinful attitude of abusing other people's property, but by the approach he had to the redeeming will of the one who was mercy in person. Dimas could no longer change, he was already on the cross. A thief he lived and a thief he died.
This case refers us to the seventh commandment. Those who steal. Those who, with fraud, do not return what they received on loan. Those who evade taxes and those who divert public resources. The list of those under the threat of condemnation implied by failing to comply with a commandment is long.
Regarding the sixth commandment, we know that a group of men dragged away a woman who had been convicted of her sin. We know that the law of Moses gave them the right to stone her. We know that at no time does Jesus exonerate her, and that being Mercy, he does not fall into the legal game of "the evidence of sin" to stop there his redemptive action and therefore his action as a shepherd of lost sheep.
No, he does not grant her her blessing, but in no way does he curse her. With a "go and sin no more" he lets her go from his presence. What happens after starting to walk away from Jesus is not written. There are no guarantees of change, and it is up to us to give her the benefit of the doubt to think she has converted.
But as our mind remains in the dynamic image of the sinner along the way, we surely remember a case that also moves, and that is related to the tenth commandment. It is through the figure of the father of the prodigal son. We see in our mind the road back home, which is empty. We see this faithful father, but who does nothing to convince him to change, but rather he is firm, immobile, standing on the return path where he will surely see the son who has gone return. This is the same son who has abused his property.
This father is proposed to us by Jesus, as a parameter. He is a father who does not go out in search of his son, with the aim of dissuading him, but rather waits for him and receives him warmly. We see that son who continues to be a "wasteful person" who desired and wasted assets that were not his. He hasn't changed. We see that embrace of the returning son, which fuses the sinner with mercy, and which does not require the return of goods. That hug is very difficult to find in the group of men in the previous case, in which they push the sinner to the face of ridicule.
They were looking for "justice", since the flagrant nature of the woman's sin seemed to authorize their mistreatment. It seems that justice should never allow even one millimeter of his action in the face of evidence of fault. However, although we know that Dimas, the "good thief", had the temporary consequence for him, we know that there was no sanction for the adulterous woman. Also from the prodigal son, who never received the consequence that his older brother was crying out for him. We know that he was not denied the right to receive inheritance, again.
We know that at least the "good thief" and the adulterous woman came face to face, were cared for and transformed by the redeemer himself. There was an approach and a reception, according to the conditions that both experienced.
Yes, each commandment is as important as the others, and failure to comply with any of the 10 Commandments will lead to condemnation, so the guidance of Jesus should guide us in our judgment. With our criteria we will always stop at the obvious, at the burden that the evidence places on us, to lead us to conviction.
How difficult it must be to be a pastor when what Christ asks of us is not sentence but refuge.
We lay people cannot, even if we have some ideas, assume that we have the right to propose this or that solution. That is what the teaching of the Church is for. For this, guiding documents are published from the See of Peter.
If these strategies of Jesus, which are reported in the gospels, had been described in one of such documents, surely the words would not have captured the complexity involved in carrying them out.
Here is the maximum dilemma in the case of homosexuality. Unlike these three examples, who were able to change because their sins had been the product of their crooked will, and who managed to ensure that their actions were not evident to all those who held them in good esteem before being denounced, the evident permanence of the homo tendency affective behavior that is observed in people who confess themselves to be homosexual, leads us in every case that we know to reach the verdict that it is a vice that they will never want to give up.
And our indignation grows even more if they appear before others, asking for blessings for their patently irregular situations. But he who has acquired a car with funds resulting from the embezzlement or abuse of the worker, manages to hide his guilt and obtain consent without delay for a blessing. Wouldn't it be desirable to ask whoever requests that blessing if their moral situation is pristine, or perhaps it would be better to know each parishioner to know if it is possible to schedule an appointment with the parish cleric, before they pay their "contribution"?
We must know that Christ comes out to meet us. The Pope's document seeks to receive those who approach, not those who seek to show off their manipulation of the liturgy. No one with those intentions should get away with it. But there will be more opportunities to serve those who have stayed away. Pastoral time is what the clergyman who is standing on the arrival path requires, to embrace and dialogue, and advise.
"Now one of the criminals hanging there reviled Jesus, saying, 'Are you not the Messiah? Save yourself and us.' The other, however, rebuking him, said in reply, 'HAVE YOU NO FEAR OF GOD, FOR YOU ARE SUBJECT TO THE SAME CONDEMNATION? AND INDEED, WE HAVE BEEN CONDEMNED JUSTLY, FOR THE SENTENCE WE RECEIVED CORRESPONDS TO OUR CRIMES, BUT THIS MAN HAS DONE NOTHING CRIMINAL.' Then he said, 'JESUS, REMEMBER ME WHEN YOU COME INTO YOUR KINGDOM.' He replied to him, 'Amen, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.' " Luke, 23 (39-43)
The good thief repented. The penitent sinner receives salvation through the crucified Jesus!
@@SilvanaNaldi-du6fw The Incarnation and the Passion are two of the defining moments in the history of salvation. The Virgin Mother and the Lamb of God shared these moments with two other saints. The paternity of Joseph and the martyrdom of Dismas remain eclipsed in our minds, but if we carefully reread the account of each event, we can reflect that Joseph also had the presence of an angel, who invited him to fulfill a mission that God entrusted to him. , and he also said a fiat. Dismas shares the ordeal and the method of torture that the Romans used to practice. A cross adjacent to that of the Savior, which also produces fruits of redemption. Although we must also know that Joseph hesitates and decides to leave, that Dimas never stopped being a thief.
We Catholics, who give ourselves the license to think that Christ could see repentance in Dismas's heart, need to imagine him without the cross on which he was serving his sentence.
What we can know is that anyone who experiences harsh consequences from some action he has taken, and who cannot escape the consequences of it, will wish he had not done whatever he did. We believe that the "good thief" repents right there. Yes, Dimas was on the cross, and he knew it was a consequence of having been a consummate thief. He would surely have an internal state more similar to remorse than repentance, and we do not reflect on that. The fruit of the cross for him was, as for all those who suffered this execution, remorse.
However, we know of a statement from Dimas that goes further. “Remember me, when you are in your kingdom.” He does not say “I'm sorry for what I did”, but rather he seems to say “I have always believed in you, even though my fragility prevented me from changing”.
This was not a fruit of the Cross, but of the presence of Christ in his life, at a distance. This is the Dimas that we DON'T imagine, the thief who continues stealing, but who is contemplating the Messiah, in the distance. If he had changed, the adjective "repentant" would describe it.
This would be exactly the case of the prostitute who rinses Jesus' feet. Her tears fell, like a waterfall of her remorse. She couldn't stop being what she was, that would surely have been dying due to economic deprivation.
But she didn't want to be far from Him. She only had that gesture, and that was the one she gave. The Savior does not ask her to change, he tells her that she has been saved from it. I do not even dare to think that she continued doing what she did, which was declared at that precise moment by those present, witnesses of her sinful life. My Catholic criteria leads me to conclude that she changed, because she "repented." It would be like judging Christ for not exercising justice, and to declare an "inveterate sinner" saved.
However, I don't see how she would manage to change without the support of others. Those who had become her clients had the firmness to reject her in any other social position. Now, when debating the rightness or wrongness of giving blessings to homosexual that come as couples, we return to that attitude of those who surrounded Jesus on that occasion. We are concerned about giving "safe passage" to the sinner. We are sure that this is the border we should never cross. We feel that we are doing an act of heroic religiosity by opposing any acceptance of the text that was issued on the matter.
As with the story of Cain and Abel, as with that of the Good Samaritan, the Bible reveals to us about our responsibility towards our neighbor. Even if we were not the cause of the other's condition, we are the only ones who can support them to correct it. I imagine the prostitute sheltered by her community, in the effort not to sin again, although that is not written. She was a prostitute before and during the face-to-face encounter with Mercy. Afterwards, the miracle was the action of all the others, and repentance came later. We do not know how to imagine this with those who live homosexual coexistence. It is something similar to what happens to us with other social realities. We see the migrant pass by, the woman who thinks about having an abortion suffer, the beggar lie in the street. Few Catholics collaborate with his situation, and almost always, like with the occasional food supplies to prison inmates, from a distance. This prevents us from acting socially, and we project that resistance onto homosexuality, and we believe that our condemnation is proven, that they shall always live in sin. But we are not the first to distance ourselves. The priest and the Levite in the parable of the Good Samaritan precede us. We lack that first action that the Samaritan did, that "feeling moved", that makes us get off the horse and go down to assist the needy.
Nevera has the Church issued a certificate of CONDEMNATION on any ONE, not even Judas iscariot. Nor will be the case of homosexuals. They need asistance, and you fail as a judge against It.

This Sacred Scripture is from "The New American Bible", (Saint Joseph Edition)
Luke, 23 (39-43).
....you continue to confuse this by your irregular theological understanding...EVERY PERSON HAS UNTIL THEIR LAST BREATH TO REPENT cross or no cross! The Good Thief by his willingness to approach the Messiah in doing so professed his belief and willingness to CHANGE for the good of his soul and out of his desire to follow the Messiah...despite being on the cross!
How can someone, claiming to be speaking in the name of God, speak so evil of the Holy Father and then give a blessing from Almighty God at the end? That is just funny, to say the least.
Yes, "the Pope" and Tucho are quite funny. You are right to point this out.🤔

If the Pope disobeys God, who should we obey? God or the Pope?
@johna1495
Should we stay silent as the shepherd leads the flock astray?
Pope Francis is super passionate of leading souls to Hell
