Oh okay right right

that made alot of sense thanks

usually this is partly what we undergo in Purgatory, its burning away the effects of sin on our souls that we didn't quite detach from even though we repented, but also making reparation/suffering the consequences of our effects

but

since the Church has the authority to bind and to loose, under special circumstances we can get indulgences which relieve us from this

so essentially, if you obtain a plenary indulgence, until you commit another sin, you will not go through purgatory if you die

the conditions are, you must be in a state of grace, receive communion on that day, go to confession within 8 days before or after, pray for the Pope's intentions and do whatever action the specific indulgence states

so for example, this Sunday you pray the prayers associated with the Divine Mercy devotion (chaplet etc) or pray an Our Father, Creed and a devout prayer trusting in Jesus' mercy in front of the tabernacle

oh and complete detachment from affection to sin

which is probably the hardest one to do

okay i see now

thank you for clearing that up

this may sound like a stupid question, cause earlier the enemies of the church were brought up, how is freemasonry an enemy to God's Holy Church?

Theres a million different reasons but the essential point as that they are Jews, but not as we have come to identify them. They act in accordance with Jewish principles and are run, and organised by, Jews. They follow Jewish rituals and subvert in accordance with Jewish doctrine

Its Jewish ritualism cloaked in gnosticism so the goys can get involved too

Higher members are also probably invoked with the Occult

And Mary revealed to one of the saints that freemasons aren’t exactly greeted by the angels of God when they die.

gonna be honest, was interested in the masons in the past

but if thats the case then idk

as a kid I was intrigued because I knew nothing about them and they seemed like some sort of edgy secret society

but even my boomeresque catholic mum knew they were evil

id been told by people they're basically a club of rich people who help each other with stuff

^

Depends basically where and who they are.

The Apollo lodge in Wales is essentially a bunch of rich Oxbridge Graduations who wear silly hoods and cloaks over their dinner jackets and drink copious amounts of Gin.

But then, they still ascribe to the same organisation, so fiery pits for those eccentric drunkards, too.

Most of the low levels are harmless and don’t know what’s going on tbh

It’s the high levels that are the problem

But all the same, you shouldn’t join the Masons regardless

What does <#557359532838354944> mean

"There is no salvation outside the Church"

Oh nice

Is byzantine catholic an oxymoron? no offense intended

no

@LuxCo there's actually an interesting documented history about it, there might of been a combination of the churches past the Council of Lyons in the 14th century were it not for the Byzantine emperor's untimely death, and the pope pulling out in favor of French and Spanish interests

@Deleted User 34578fb24a name of document or google search?

For the Council of Lyons, or a history about byzantine catholics?

byantine Cat.?

should I just search up their history?
