I once confessed to a monk that knew things that I did not say. I do not know where he is now though. He and his group were suppressed… .someone else’s sin in the group, not his. ← but that is just another example of where the brightest lights are, there you will also find the darkest shadows.Does anyone know any Catholic that has the gift of discernment? I’m referring to something similar to Padre Pio. During his time, there were many people who came to Padre Pio to ask for prayers and advice on what to do, including with regards to their vocation.
:sad_yes:I have sort of a feeling like I have it because I can look at the lifestyle and habits of people I know, and see where they are headed, and also where their children are probably headed, but I see this as primarily cognitive. It’s not much different than a doctor “predicting” lung and heart ailments for a heavy smoker. Much of what I see has to do with spoiling children. Most people have no idea how much they spoil their kids. This is the root of the heroin epidemic, and people seem mystified when an addict comes from “a good home”, but this does not mystify me.
Living, deceased, saints?
The late Rev. Father Benedict Joseph Groeschel, CFR was one - I believe - with such a gift.
Yes. “Satan prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”I once confessed to a monk that knew things that I did not say. I do not know where he is now though.

Sorry, I don’t understand what you are trying to say.Yes. “Satan prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”
If you’re looking for someone like this, the only thing I could think of is to try to get a hold of an exorcist, who may in turn know such a person. I think persons with these gifts are often utilized by exorcists.Living, do you know of any?
Brightest lights and darkest shadows. Satan tend to target those who are truly doing Christ’s work on earth. The lukewarm, he already has them.Sorry, I don’t understand what you are trying to say.
