is that how it looks when you keep the nave altar but remove the rood screen?

anyone in architecturr give me some insight? I am designing a rail

@Astro architecture isn't my field, but that looks nice, and I like the symbolism of 7

Maybe 7 can correspond to the sevenfold Spirit of God

In Revelation 4, that's 7 flaming lamps or something

**Revelation 4:1-5 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**

The Heavenly Worship

<4> After this I looked, and there in heaven a door stood open! And the first voice, which I had heard speaking to me like a trumpet, said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this." <2> At once I was in the spirit, and there in heaven stood a throne, with one seated on the throne! <3> And the one seated there looks like jasper and carnelian, and around the throne is a rainbow that looks like an emerald. <4> Around the throne are twenty-four thrones, and seated on the thrones are twenty-four elders, dressed in white robes, with golden crowns on their heads. <5> Coming from the throne are flashes of lightning, and rumblings and peals of thunder, and in front of the throne burn seven flaming torches, which are the seven spirits of God; ```

he does do all the work

but some of it he does through us

because he’s pleased to include us in his work

just as a loving father sometimes includes his bumbling little children in his work

and laughs with pleasure at their love

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

**Jeremiah 17:1-5 - King James Version (KJV)**

```Dust


<17> The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars; <2> Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills. <3> O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders. <4> And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burn for ever. <5> Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. ```

Does anyone know how accurate the Japanese is on that?

The bits I can read look lefit

legit*

However I know nothing of Kanji, so can't confirm

If you haven't cried watching Passion of the Christ your salvation will be called into question

Do i get triple salvation then?

I cried three times during that film

Broke: getting an indulgence to get to heaven quicker
Woke: cry at Passion for the Christ to get to heaven quicker

I think I cried at least 2/3 of the movie, or at least from the flagelation scene to the end

That has made my day.

Source pls?

Not super active in this chat so pardon me for being late here. But Passion was such a good movie. My favorite scene was the flashback with Jesus and Mary while He's building a table.

Interesting that all the (((critics))) don't like the Passion of the Christ 🤔

this is part of a book I want to put together

St Ahmed, an Ottoman nobleman who converted to Christianity through the influence of his Russian concubine and was martyred for his conversion

The Assumption of the Virgin.

I always like to meditate on this most glorious mystery in times of despair. It reminds me that Our Lady had not once lost hope in her entire earthly life. She bore witness to her Son’s humiliation, torture, and execution, and yet she did not lose hope. She remained by her Son’s side, in the hope and knowledge that His day of victory was at hand. Because of this, she is rewarded by an eternity of glory as Queen of Heaven.

We, too, shall be rewarded for maintaining hope in the will of Christ. We ought to, even in the face of such sickening societal degeneracy. For hope in God is righteous, and it is only through righteous men that the will of God shall be done, until He comes again.
