Thou art Peter [Cepha, transliterated also Kipha] and upon this rock [Cepha] I will build my Church.
The word for Peter and for rock in the original Aramaic is one and the same; this renders it evident that the various attempts to explain the term "rock" as having reference not to Peter himself but to something else are misinterpretations. It is Peter who is the rock of the Church. The term ecclesia (ekklesia) here employed is the Greek rendering of the Hebrew qahal, the name which denoted the Hebrew nation viewed as God's Church (see THE CHURCH, I).
"And upon this rock I will build my Church. . ." Here then Christ teaches plainly that in the future the Church will be the society of those who acknowledge Him, and that this Church will be built on Peter.
The expression presents no difficulty. In both the Old and New Testaments the Church is often spoken of under the metaphor of God's house (Numbers 12:7; Jeremiah 12:7; Hosea 8:1; 9:15; 1 Corinthians 3:9-17, Ephesians 2:20-2; 1 Timothy 3:5; Hebrews 3:5; 1 Peter 2:5). Peter is to be to the Church what the foundation is in regard to a house.
He is to be the principle of unity, of stability, and of increase. He is the principle of unity, since what is not joined to that foundation is no part of the Church; of stability, since it is the firmness of this foundation in virtue of which the Church remains unshaken by the storms which buffet her; of increase, since, if she grows, it is because new stones are laid on this foundation
Gee. that doesn't sound like a description of who Bergoglio is or what he does or what he intends to do.
PF acts like an "anti pope"
Acts?
Since Abraham there have been no women Priests allowed.
The ancient Hebrews only sacrificed the Male Lamb.
Jesus was the Male Lamb Sacrifice to Redeem Mankind.
There were no women Apostles.
When Mary Magdalene went to touch Jesus after His Resurrection
Jesus told her "Please do not Touch me for I am still ascending!"
Mary Magdaline was a Disciple not an Apostle.
Jesus only allowed the Apostles to touch Him as He allowed Thomas.
This is 5000 years of Theological tradition that the True Catholic Church follows.
Which is why also only the consecrated hands of the priest should touch the Sacred Host. Thank you for posting this.
I absolutely agree.
I Receive The Eucharist in both the Latin and Byzantine Rites of The Catholic Church.
In the Byzantine Catholic Rite we Receive The Eucharist under both
species of bread and wine via a wooden spoon that is burned afterwards because of covid-19 restrictions.
When I receive in my local Latin Rite Church the Priests there allow me to Receive The Eucharist on my tongue.
Also I only Receive The Eucharist from Ordained Clergy, Priest or Deacon.
I do not agree. I do not think that is her place.
Please pray for the Church, that Our Lord will defend and liberate her from Begoglio and his cohorts. This woman is not a nun, she does not look like one, she does not talk like one and she does not walk like one.
Can. 669 §1. Religious are to wear the habit of the institute, made
according to the norm of proper law, as a sign of their consecration and
as a witness of poverty.
Just more of satan's attack on the family and creating division again-men are to be the shepherds in the Church, and the shepherd's of their individual families, women are not to be, Our Lord Jesus time and again showed us this. Satan is cunning, he knows that in order to decimate the flock inside the hen-house, he has to get in there. So he is in, and he brings his ugly demons and those willing to do his bidding in with him. "Come O Holy Ghost, fill the hearts of Thy faithful and enkindle within us the Fire of Thy Love. Send forth Thy Spirit, and we shall be created, and Thou shalt renew the face of the earth. . . ." amen.
Good gosh!! Will this ever in end in Holy Mother Church? I know it will when the pope and all the bishops come together, to Consecrate Russia to Mary's IH. Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us.
She looks like a Westchester County, NY lib college prof.
Almost exactly what I thought. Just not limited to WCNY.
Looks like the type of "nun" Franky would like.

This video is very humbling! Be a child of the church.
Yes, definitely women priests are coming next. This is the prelude. No one is surprised at this from Bergoglio who is a heretic Pope.
The way of the world.
Another step forward for the not-so-slow degeneration of Church and society.
Modernists has taken over the Vatican. Our loving pontiffs warned us of their infiltration. The GREATEST manifestation of it is the Second Vatican Coincil. Since its 'acceptance' we have seen endless destructions towards the True Faith, the One Church instituted by Christ. The cardinals who elected Jorge Bergoglio knew whom they elected. He was not a Catholic and in fact might well be an atheist. He must be renounced along with the Second Vatican Council. Piety cannot and does not replace orthodoxy.
Whatever the condition of their faith, or lack thereof (God alone knows the fullness of their hearts), the Faith of Fathers as taught by the Church that Christ established is not satisfactory to them. Clearly, to their own peril, they believe that they have a better idea and are making haste to implement it.
Catholics have the duty and the applause of Church to speak out when souls are being led to perdition. Silence is not an option. Have you read, "Liberalism is a Sin" by Fr. Felix Sarda Y Salvany. See Chapter 32.
Quote the part in my post where I implied silence.
Silence is not explicitly implied by you. So WHY do they believe heresy? It is charitiable to expose heresy, is it not? Why aren't more exposing specific contradicitions to universal Catholic doctrine?
Again, where is silence even hinted at in my previous post? You tell me. As I'm sure you are aware, the failings, heresies, and apostasies of those in the Church leadership are and have been exposed daily for some time--just not by those who are at their service or under their thumbs.
As to why they believe, spread, or even try to codify these errors is, as I alluded to in my original post, something only God can accurately know. We may have suspicions about someones motives, such as, is he a Freemason, is he a communist, is he merely extremely poorly catechized, etc., but for us it's mostly only speculation.
The doors and all the gates are open, the ramparts have been destroyed and the city is lost. Rome is dead.
Jesus Christ though lives in those who love Him and obey His Commandments.
The headline says "woman," but all I see is a picture of Andy Warhol.
Thank you for the laugh! It's a serious matter but I'm tired of crying over how Bergolio has abused and destroyed 2000 years of sacred tradition.
This is how an "ape" pope head of a present "ape" catholic Church disregards
2000 year old True Catholic Doctrine and follows his own "ape" catholic Doctrines.
From the 1948 prophesy of Venerable ABP Fulton J Sheen.
I'm so sick of Francis and mad that what I'd like to say I can't because I'm a Christian woman. I won't let Francis take my faith away.
There is a parallel of what is happening to America to what is happening to The Catholic Church. Both are being shaken to it's very foundations. St. Francis was asked by Our Lord to "rebuild His Church", pope Francis appears to be mocking this as he seems to be employed in tearing down His Church. "God will not be mocked, and those busying themselves in this venture will sooner or later realize God's Holy Wrath. We must "pray for those who persecute us", we are truly being persecuted from within. God please help us.
It is only a mater of time. Women will be ordained to the priesthood. Before that more doors will be opened. Female deacons are probably a few years away. Given Francis reconstituting the study group which came down divided on the issue. The new group is mostly pro this change and expect it to recommend female deacons and Francis to quickly act on it. He continues to rapidly push forth his agenda. Don't be surprised to see Francis appoint female cardinals. It can be done. A cardinal does not have to be priest or bishop.
The nearby priest openly supports female ordination as do the large majority of his parishioners. This priest expects female ordination within 20 years. So I surmise as in 2019 the only two adult converts welcomed in at this parish were two Episcopal females who want to one day be ordained Catholic priests, The priest encouraged them saying that given they are in their 40s they very likely will be able to pursue ordination during their lifetimes.
you openly blaspheme here, and on another article you admit you aren’t Catholic. on another site you have a rather prolific career as an anti-Catholic paid troll where you accuse Catholics of being communists and devil worshipers trying to systematically destroy the world.
If only this site had the fortitude to deal with those like you.
Exactly. If a woman attempts to say Mass, it will be a pretend performance, void of any supernatural content. Bread and wine will remain bread and wine, and no grace whatsoever will flow from the proceedings. They can "pursue ordination" all they want, but it will be merely a mirage. If any pope approves of this travesty, we will know for a fact he is a formal heretic.
There will be no female priests. Bergolio can perform or allow as many psuedo rituals as he likes, they will not be priests. They cannot be priests.
"will there be any Faith when I return?"
Jesus to His Apostles
?
"A door has opened"... There is no door. A hole has been hacked into a wall.
Straight to hell.
Truly, "Personnel is policy".
Pray for PF.
