I watched the video and it’s sad,I will send it to as many people as I can for prayer the devil uses children for his wickedness,for children are a gift from God and those kids are taught hatred from day one,I just have a hard time when it comes to children,if thats the future (even so Lord Jesus come) thank you Nancy
Hi it’s Nancy again,how come when I click on your site I can get it but if I copy it and try to send it it dosent work? I copied youtube.com/watch?=eTGbP55HGi8 and it takes me to a place to watch free movies,but if I click on what you have I go right to the movie? What am I doing wrong ? can you e-mail it then will it work? NancyI had compiled some texts on this subject and just made them into a blog post. (I’m brand new with this whole blogging thing, and this is actually my first one ever!): fewsaved.blogspot.com/When Mary appeared in of the most recent (approved) apparitions (can’t recall which one…) she said that “these days more people go to Purgatory [than Helll]”… (very few go directly to Heaven) so i am wondering… What happened in the last couple hundred yrs that changed that… Well… unless she meant to say that most people used to go to Heaven (when there was just one Church??) but I am confused about all this because some saint said he had a vision in which nearly evreyone went to Hell… that was back in the 1100s…
I don’t know… I am just trying to figure things out (as usual)…
Hi, I went to your site(blog) it was good and I took down alot of information,and subscribed.In your blog it said something pertaining to (detachment from creatures). what does that mean? Thank You Nancy PS I need to E-Mail you about the saints.i totally agree with all you say… and maybe that apparition i heard about where Mary supposedly said that more people now go to Purg… well, mabye it is was NOT an approved apparition… much as i thought it WAS… I don’t think even Medjugorge is approved, is it??
You are so right. It is far better to purge ourselves now and is much much easier now to purge ourselves than in purgatory where the doctors and saints have described the pains as more intense than anything we could ever suffer here on earth. Moreover, we must be diligent that we are always ready to meet our Lord as we never know at what time we will die and meet him. If we consistently live our lives in the state of grace and the practice of virtue, then we have nothing to fear. However, if we are lukewarm… (Rev 3:16), we need to repent and turn to God and be always ready for his coming (Luk 21:36; Mat 24:42; 25:13; Mark 13:33-35).
It seems to have gone on for an awfully long time, and even seems to be creating its own economy - which does not seem consistent with the behaviour of Our Mother. (When a similar thing started happening at Fatima, she gave one final message to the children and then ceased her appearances.)
i totally agree… pepole don’t seem to fully realize or comprehend just how holy and just God is… and that he will NOT allow any impurity to enter Heaven… Even as devout a Catholic as I am, i speak of myself here as well… I never realize how far from my goal i am until i spend a long time praying the Sorrowful Mysteries of the rosary or spending time in His holy Presence in the Church (where, as you may know, the Souls in Purg also abide, near Him)… To be there is to be in Purg… and it is NOT always so wonderful, at least in the beginning (the 1st hour or two) when all those weird “cobwebs” are being removed by Him…
Why do you not like Medjugorge???
Where did you hear that the location of Purgatory is in church or that it’s near Christ’s earthly presence?

i can’t recall but i think it was a saint… I read a lot and i read this some time ago… so that’s why i don’t remember… All i can say is that i only read books that have the Impramatur on them or are reliable in other ways… I am VERY selective in my reading…
In all your extensive reading, have you ever stumbled across St. Thomas Aquinas’s Summa Theologica per chance? If so, do you recall what the angelic doctor had to say on the subject?
I’ve read this discussion, and it had some interesting ideas throughout, especially from the point of view of a non-catholic believer, which I am. The one point of view that I found both prominent and troubling is summed up in the quote above.
And they say we are the haters
Your statement doesn’t follow from the post you quoted. Walkinginfaith not hating but making a statement that should be looked at. James makes it clear what faith and true religion are. She’s showing how protestants have exemplified their faith and specifically how its help Walkinginfaith’s faith so to speak. James says that your works should demonstrate your faith and so it goes with protestants. Keep in mind Protestants are using the same text as Catholics because after all the Sacred Scriptures are part of the Deposit on equal standing with Sacred Traditon and magesterium of the Church. There must be something good in scriptures then especially when so many churches (that claim) to follow it do so many things that Jesus would see others doing. Walkinginfaith did not spout hatred she pointed it out. Its a common technique to accuse the person who originally makes the accusation to begin with. It’s not really a goo debating tool. It ignores issues.
In the four centuries since the Reformation, Catholics have often reflected on the mystery of God’s providence in allowing so many persons to be separated, first from Roman unity, and finally (for many of them) even from the Christian faith. If nothing happens by chance with God, there must have been reasons to correspond in gravity with the event and explain, as far as we humanly can, why the tragedy was permitted to occur.
Seems to me you have a very selective mind too
