Back in July of this year I commented on how the Catholic Bishops of the state of New York basically acquiesced or went into hiding as Governor Andrew Cuomo played tool to Satan by bullying and palm greasing his way into getting Gay Marriage legislation [...]

The Sacrament of Catholic Penance & Reconciliation (Confession, as it is called) is not so strange once you fully consider it. In the Old Covenant God reconciled man to Himself through the sacrifice of priests, and in the New Covenant God, once and for all, reconciled man to Himself through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus, the High Priest. Yet, in spite of that, man continues to sin; therefore man needs constant forgiveness. This is why Jesus gave His New Covenant priests the authority to forgive or to retain sins in His name.

The Ascension of our Lord into Heaven is a Holy Day of Obligation in the Catholic Church. My favorite thing about Ascension of our Jesus into Heaven is that it is the fullment of a very interesting statement He made in the Sixth Chapter of John’s Gospel.

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.

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.

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?’

Even without much of a commentary, what I have proven with these texts from the Gospels, the Apostles, and the Fathers of the Church, all talking about a ‘Church’, that there is a substantive link between them. That is, they are all talking about the SAME Church (the Catholic Church). All of these men, within a 100 year time-frame, are all connected by this same united community that they are all writing and speaking about.
