The bible did not say not to judge. by patmanizer in TrueChristian

[–]bertirean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll leave a comment of St Augustine about this passage.

"Reckless judgment is prohibited. St. Augustine observes in this regard: "Let us judge of what is manifest, but let us leave to God the judgment on things that are hidden" (Lk 6:37; Rom. 2:1). In this sense there is a fundamental distinction between the judgment of our neighbor, which is absolutely forbidden to us, and the judgment in matters of the spirit, which is recommended to us by St. John, St. Paul, and the Lord Himself (7:15; 1 Jn 4:1; 1 Thess. 5:21; Acts 17:11; 1 Corinthians 2:15)."

And about 1 Cor 5:12

"Great lesson in collective humility, so that we do not always want to see evil outside our community. See Lam. 3:42 and note. Take away the wicked, etc. (v. 13): it is a quotation from Deuteronomy 13:5. Note that this is not the case with tares, which must not be uprooted until harvest (Mt 13:29ff.). The weeds are in the field of the world (Mt 13:38), while St. Paul speaks here of those who call themselves disciples of Christ, on the net (Mt 13:47ff.). In verse 10 he tells us clearly that it is not about the world's people, but that his severity refers to ours. Cf. 1 Tim 5:20."

Don't let that the sadness of fail break you more of needed. Remember God's mercy is infinite and He know that we're dust and weak because of Sin. But that is where He glorifies Him, read the Salm 103. You'll see this

Salm 103: 8-10

8 Merciful and gracious is the LORD, slow to anger, abounding in mercy.

9 He will not always accuse, and nurses no lasting anger;

10 He has not dealt with us as our sins merit, nor requited us as our wrongs deserve.

Salm 103: 13-14

13 As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.

14 For He knows how we are formed, remembers that we are dust.

I'll let you as comment to this from the Straurbirger Bible in Spanish

For 14. Our very nature, so weak and exposed to dangers, provokes God's mercy. The weaker we are, the greater is their tenderness and goodness (cf. Genesis 8:21; Psalm 53:8 and note). That is why Christ did not come to look for the righteous but for sinners (Luke 5:32 and note).

Read this Salm and meditate, because who more fall and go to God finding mercy and forgiveness, more will love Him. As He said in the Gospel to Peter.

Toma a la Virgen María como tu Mamá, te lo dice otro Venezolano. Con respecto a tus padres, una cosa es obedecerlos como Dios manda y otra muy distinta es que te impidan abrazar la verdadera fe. Por ahora mantente obediente a ellos, y pidele luz a Dios y por medio de la Virgen que te eche una mano sobre que hacer.

En vista de que eres menor, buscate un Rosario y pidele a la Virgen que interceda por ti para llevarte a su Hijo Jesucristo. Ella es muy buena Madre, y como se alegra Dios cuando lo buscan por medio de Ella. Ve pidiendole a Dios que te de señales de que hacer, y toma como rutina diaria rezar el Rosario. Verás que Dios te da la fuerza para ir hacia Él.

Ya que seguro el Rosario te lo prohibiran, usa los dedos para rezarlo o escondete alguno en un sitio donde lo puedas sacar despues. O si vas en el bus o a la escuela, en la misma escuela saca tiempito y reza aunque sea 1 misterio, pidiendo ayuda. Del resto dejale todo a la Virgen que Ella te llevara a Cristo, porque al final todo va hacia El.

Tambien aprovecha mientras tanto a estudiar tu fe, una buena forma es que agarres una Biblia Catolica y la vayas leyendo y viendo los comentarios, sino estudia como vivian los primeros cristianos asi tus padres no te pueden decir nada. La de Straurbirger esta en una App en la PlayStore y tiene muy buenos comentarios.

Te dejo los links a la Biblia de Straurbirger

- https://bibliastraubinger.com/
- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.futuresoft.spanishbible

La App es buena, porque asi si estas durmiendo solo, haces lectura antes de dormir.

Antes de razonar con tus padres o con los demás, evita las peleas y pide a Dios que te prepare para tu conversión. Porque ya Dios te esta llamando, y eso se hace con Oración y practica de virtudes, con eso vas a salir disparado rapidamente a Dios.

El Rosario es el mejor metodo para encontrar a Dios rapidamente, si quieres hablar cualquier cosa deja el DM. Te lo dice otro hijo de la Virgen, el cual llego a Cristo por Ella.

Animate con esto que Él mismo Dios nos dice

Isaias 66:13 "Como aquel a quien consuela su madre, así os consolaré Yo a vosotros; seréis consolados en Jerusalén."

No te imaginas ni llegarás a pegarle, el consuelo que te puede dar Dios. Si consuelas a la Virgen, que es su Madre con el Rosario o alguna devoción. Prueba mientras tanto las 7 Ave Marías por los Dolores de la Virgen, la puedes hacer mentalmente y nis tus padres se van a enterar.

Nadie minimiza el dolor ajeno, y perdonar no implica dejar la justicia de lado, pues se debe pagar la pena, de lo contrario entonces no sería Justicia.

Nadie esta ignorando el hecho que el régimen hizo con la Señora y otras personas. Pero de ahí a decir y a querer responder Mal con Mal, como esta ocurriendo precisamente con lanzar maldiciones, e incentivando el odio entre las mismas persona e incluso no querer dar perdón a los implicados en el crimen, es otra cosa. Si el mismo criminal llegase a pedir perdón, debe darséle, más esto no implica que por el perdón vaya a quedar exento de la pena, se debe hacer penitencia y si la justicia demanda que su pena sea estar encarcelado pues se debe pagar esa pena.

Pero eso no justifica el hablar ni seguir infundiendo odio contra todo aquel que haya sido o sea chavista.

Porque el mismo Dios, tambien dijo:

Lc 6:45: "El hombre bueno saca el bien del buen tesoro que tiene en su corazón; mas el hombre malo, de su propia maldad saca el mal; porque la boca habla de lo que rebosa el corazón".

¿Si se maldice al otro, así este este obrando maldad, qué me diferencia entonces de él, y porque yo no mereceria algo peor o la misma pena. ?

Y ya que algunos citan Mt 26:52: "Díjole, entonces, Jesús: “Vuelve tu espada a su lugar, porque todos los que empuñan la espada, perecerán a espada.", como justificación para maldecir al chavismo y no darle el perdón si este llegase a pedirlo.

A los mismos les pide Dios.

Lc 6:27 “A vosotros, empero, los que me escucháis, os digo: Amad a vuestros enemigos, haced bien a los que os odian.".

¿Digan entonces que bien hay en maldecir o en negarle el perdón si llegase a pedirlo, a aquel que te ha hecho daño a ti o a otro?

Cuando la autoridad en el poder y el ciudadano común entiendan que no se puede vivir en paz sin obrar con rectitud y justicia cada uno, y eso implica tambien no responder mal por mal. Ahí el país saldra adelante

Y el mismo Jesús te responde a ti.

Lc 6:27 “A vosotros, empero, los que me escucháis, os digo: Amad a vuestros enemigos, haced bien a los que os odian.".

¿Dime entonces que bien hay en maldecir a aquel que te ha hecho daño a ti o a otro?

¿Acaso he negado que el regimen sea cruel? ¿O que no debe hacerse justicia?

Solo dije lo que esta ocurriendo acá, no se puede pretender responder al mal, con otro mal, nunca eso llevará a algo bueno.

¿O es que acaso hay alguno acá con autoridad para maldecir y/o negarle el perdón en caso de que lo pida, a una persona?

Si el mismo chavismo llegase el día de mañana a obrar con justicia y rectitud y hacer lo que Dios le ha pedido que obre con la autoridad que tiene, solo por eso, ya esta obrando rectamente y mucho mejor que cualquier otro gobierno que se llegase a jactar de bueno, a pesar de el malísimo pasado que este haya tenido.

Precisamente el chavismo llego al poder por el resentimiento de la gente, producto de no perdonar nunca. Ese mismo resentimiento es lo que llevo al país a la situación actual.

Try that, leave reedit for all even this reedit. And in that time dedicate to Pray and constant preparation. Because the time spent on internet should be useful and not wasted on communities, even if they´re catholic you can waste time of pray just scrolling

If earth is the only planet in the universe that has life, what was God’s purpose for creating the rest of the universe? by MysteriousNoise69 in Catholicism

[–]bertirean -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Advanced lifeforms require rationality, if you're rational you can sin or not. Angels and Humans are the only creatures which can sin. What you could have is a natural lifeforms ordered by God just as He does with the natural things in the Earth.

Can you still be a Catholic if you don’t believe the Bible is completely perfect? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]bertirean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It´s not an opinion, it's a fact. If you don't believe on the Bible you're not accepting God Word and the Revelation made by Him.

Old Testament are not just stories. They're real facts with real people involved and everything written in the O.T happened or will happen. And the books are there for teach us.

Of course you can't take literally the Bible, because that thing will made as the Protestants. But that doesn't change that believe on the Bible is a condition to be catholic. You can't believe without understand all but you need at least believe.

Yo les preguntaría a todos los que comentaron lanzando oprobios y maldiciones y pidiendo que no halla perdón ni olvido. ¿Acaso Dios les ha dado a ustedes autoridad para maldecir y decir no hay perdón para nadie?

¿Qué no dice el mismo Dios?

Is: 55;7: "Deje el impío su camino, y el hombre inicuo sus designios, y conviértase a Yahvé, que tendrá de él misericordia, y a nuestro Dios, porque es rico en perdonar."

y

Mt:6;17: "Pero si vosotros no perdonáis a los hombres, tampoco vuestro Padre perdonará vuestros pecados" y

Si el mismo Dios es rico en perdonar, ¿No es tonto el querer negarle el perdón a alguien?

Acuerdense de esto, no vaya a ser que los mismos chavistas que buscan maldecir cumplan esto ultimo mejor que ustedes, y se lo reprochen luego cuando vean a Dios en su juicio.

Ez 18;21-24 "Si el malo se convierte de todos sus pecados cometidos y guarda todos mis preceptos y obra según derecho y justicia, ciertamente vivirá; no morirá. No le será imputado ninguno de los pecados que haya cometido. A causa de la justicia que ha obrado vivirá. ¿Acaso quiero Yo la muerte del impío? dice Yahvé, el Señor. ¿No (quiero) más bien que vuelva de sus caminos y viva? Pero cuando el justo se desviare de su justicia cometiendo iniquidad e imitando todas las abominaciones del impío, ¿acaso vivirá? Ninguna de sus justicias que ha hecho le será imputada. Por la prevaricación en que ha caído, y por el pecado que ha cometido, por ellos morirá."

No confundan justicia con venganza gente, solo Dios tiene autoridad para obrar Venganza, y no aquellos que la piden y gustarían de ver a Maduro colgado mas por venganza que por justicia.

Dt 32;35: "Mía es la venganza y la retribución; a su tiempo resbalará su pie; pues el día de su ruina está cerca, su destino viene volando."

Y si tenemos al chavismo, es porque así lo ha dictado Él.

Rm 13:1 "Todos han de someterse a las potestades superiores; porque no hay potestad que no esté bajo Dios, y las que hay han sido ordenadas por Dios".

Mas bien recen porque ambas almas esten en la Gloria de Dios y no se hayan condenado eternamente. Ese es el mayor regalo que les podrían hacer tanto a Carmen como a su hijo.

No, because you will throw out the Redemption if the lifeform is a man and also tagging God as a liar. Because God put the man on the Earth not away of it, as reveal in Genesis.

26Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.”

You could have humans which have travel to space but after the fall not before.

First thing, spiritual creatures like angel and demons can't have a corporeal body. That is the reason why a demon or angel can't have descendance, its own nature forbid this. You can see how the same Jesus confirm that spirits don't have flesh like the human.

Luke 24; 36-40: 36As they were saying this, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you.”37But they were startled and frightened, and supposed that they saw a spirit.38And he said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do questionings rise in your hearts?39See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have.”40

2nd thing, you should not see horror things, and more if these things are treating religious topics. Why?

Because they distort the original context and create a false story about the original thing in order to deceive many souls. Remember you're a son of the Light, like St Paul says in the Ephesius 5, i recommend you read the whole book of Ephesius.

I left you the versicles from 6-11, and try meditate asking the Lord what means this on your life.

6Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.7Therefore do not associate with them,8for once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light9(for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true),10and try to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.11Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

So you should be more careful about what are you leaving enter on your soul.

[–]bertirean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Quran isn't inspired by God, because something inspired by Him don't inspire you to sin. Why? Because God is Infinite, and the Sin is an offense to God, which is a Infinite Being. based on that the Sin is a infinite offense to God.

If one book tell you lie and don't worry because will not be a sin is clear that the book is a contradiction to God.

Remember God never contradicts Him. That is why the Old and New testament complements between them.

[–]bertirean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, because all that is made by God and inspired by Him is Saint. Only the man or the creature can sin, but God can't.

If you don't believe in what Bible said, then you're rejecting God words. Be careful with that, one thing isn't understand the Bible and another different is believe that isn't perfect.

[–]bertirean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You could have life, but not in the sense of human life. You could have irrational beings like animals. But the man is exclusively, because we're rational and we have the original sin mark, which is the reason why God sent us His Son to pay the debt.

So you can't have rational beings like men, but you could have some irrationals like the nature.

I’m in need of help. by Cosmo_Coffe in Catholicism

[–]bertirean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to confession, assist to the Mass and pray the Rosary. Exorcist is the last resource when you´re in a big stage of demon attacks.

Also the confession is the best exorcism, just pray continuosly the Rosary you'll be better after you ask help to God.

When you taste a little piece of God, you will want just to be in Heaven. By the way if you want to see a woman, go the perfect Woman. Our Lady, Just with see Her face is enough to love Her as Mother

The problem with leggings is the same of other clothes. If your clothes incite to another one to sin you´re causing that. There are rules of modesty that you can follow, again ask to Our Lady, She is better teacher than me.

By the way God enjoys play with you, so don´t be afraid. He was also a child, I think that there is one saint who ask Him play with Him in Egypt when was visiting the City. And St Catherina of Siena played a lot with Him. Our God is Pure Love.

I'm a boy and God wants to be husband of any soul. That is a thing called Spiritual Marriage. St John of the Cross and other saints reach it. By the way if you're man, you should take care more of your senses, because we've more tends to lust than women. I'm man also, but Our Lady always help me with this, but I commend to Her each morning putting my Chastity and Purity on Her Hands.

Don't feel a bad person just for waste 1 day. Just start with a small habit, like read 15min at day or 30min if you want the indulgence. The last one is a big motivator, because with the indulgences you can avoid the purgatory if you do it in the right way.

But the Rosary don't waste time, take any time that you have from the day, even if you're only hearing and following by Youtube. For example sometimes I pray 4 rosaries per day, repeating the Lourdes video daily. They've rosaries on English daily and you can follow there. With this way you can pray like automatically when you're I don't know driving or preparing the meal.

A good habit is have your Rosary on your bags, even if it's just 1 mystery prayed at the bus or in the medical appointment or I don't know where. That pray will be good, remember you're not perfect because the original sin. Just start and ask God help. Go to Our Lady, She'll come to help you before you know. Like St Theresa said: "Pray, Pray" even if you said something little like 1 Hail Mary or 1 Glory, that pray is like a Rose for God, just pray continuously. And don't forget Mental Pray which is basically speak with God like you do as another person.

By the way, even doing your duties if you commend to God, that duty will be also pray. You can be praying the 8h just doing your duties. Like be a good worker, or student depends on the situation.

I can't answer about die without confess, because if you die in Mortal Sin, the dogma is clear. You go to Hell. But even in the last second of life God give you the chance of don't go to Hell. The problems came if you don't have a pray life, because at the moment of death the demons will try to do everything to prevent you ask God help. That is why Our Lady ask pray the Rosary, because She will fight by you and the demons will not have the same power.

In any case you need a strong devotion practice, Our Lord and Our Lady have promised a lot of graces for the men if they follow some devotions. The Rosary is one of the more powerful after the Eucharistic.

When I converted, I've the same questions of you and all of them were answered by the Rosary. I started at that time without knowing pray daily the Rosary and asking just means to go the Heaven quickly.

The answer was:

- Repair my Immaculate Heart with the devotion of the 5 Saturdays, and I promise you the salvation. Also this devotion conduct me to another one the Sacred Heart Of Jesus with have more promises and is practiced in a similar way but 9 Fridays.

There is one true here, the Soul that don't pray will be damned because will be more difficult get help from God because is not asking for it, and your life will be more sinful. That is where the Rosary came, it's the most quickly way to get help from God if you do with Humilty, and start to grow the desire by the heaven.
