This last of my Six Proofs of the Catholic Church is the most succinct and shortest of them all. Simply put, the Catholic Church works; it was created by God to facilitate that unique union between God and man, and that is precisely what it has done since the resurrection of Christ the Lord.

I hope you read the headline right. This is not an article that will give you any positive insight whatsoever into finding ‘The One’. I am not qualified to approach such a list, nor does my ex-wife think I will ever be. In fact, she [...]

Back on September 12, 2010, I wrote an article entitled, Three Reasons why Capital Punishment is Always Unneccesary, in which I numerated the three reasons why I personally believe that the use of Capital Punishment (the Death Penalty) does not comport with the divine mercy [...]

Using sacred Scripture, writings of the saints, stories from his own life, and incorporating narratives from popular books and movies such as ‘The Matrix’, ‘Lord of the Rings’, ‘Forest Gump’, and ‘The Count of Monte Cristo’, David L. Gray lucidly explains how we can discern the will of God for our lives by following Jesus from the womb of Mary to the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea. This book is an instant classic in Catholic Spiritual literature and a must have for all Christians and Jews who desire to learn how to Cooperate with God more fully.

Rather than learning how to avoid near occasions of sin, The Bridegroom’s Prayer teaches us how to seek near occasions of grace through reflecting on the 13 petitions of Christ Jesus in His prayer of High Intimacy to His Father before His sacrifice on the Cross (Seventeenth Chapter of John). In the first book of his series on Cooperating with God, contemplative David L. Gray (Yoseph M. Daviyd) draws from the rich treasure of sacred Scripture, patristic texts, writings of the saints, teachings of the Catholic Church, and stories from his own life to present a masterpiece in systematic Catholic spiritual theology.

Now in the second Theological Proof that the Catholic Church is the only community of Churches that Christ Jesus established through His Apostles I revisit the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist with another excerpt from the Eighth Chapter of my Book Cooperating with God: Life with the Cross where I treat the Sixth Chapter of John’s Gospel. Where your a Catholic or a Protestant depends solely on your interpretation of this chapter.

It’s been a few months since my last Potholes commentary/comedic sarcasm, but it hasn’t been due to any lack of things that puzznoy (a combination of puzzle & annoy) me. It just happens to be the case that my return to bachelorhood has created a [...]

The fact is that we do have a responsibility to act on the word of way, truth, and life that we receive, but we have an even greater responsibility to pass on that same word given to us to others, so that they might hear it and be propelled into action. For this reason Jesus sent out His Church to the whole world to baptize, teach, ministry, and heal.

By borrowing some paragraphs from my book Cooperating with God: The Life with the Cross (Chapter Eight), in Part 4 (below) I will demonstrate why we must still celebrate the Passover Meal that God commanded us to always do (Exodus 12) and how the Sacrament of the Eucharist, as celebrated only in the Catholic Church, is Christ Jesus’ fulfillment of the Old Covenant Passover.

Jesus said to his disciples: “No one can serve two masters. He will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, [...]

I challenge anyone to prove the name of the founder of the Catholic Church other than Christ Jesus. There being none, the questions that follows is, ‘Why belong to a Church that was started by some man or woman that was not an Apostle of Christ Jesus?’

The LORD said to Moses, “Speak to the whole Israelite community and tell them: Be holy, for I, the LORD, your God, am holy. “You shall not bear hatred for your brother or sister in your heart. Though you may have to reprove your fellow [...]
