Fourth Day of Novena to the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel
"Stay in the cell..." We have seen that to quest for, find and, finally, take possession most securely and for eternity our Beloved is the effect of the true Faith. This supernatural illumination sheds upon our minds, even darkened and corrupted by Original Sin, divine light that we may behold and enjoy the Face of the Beloved; yet, blinds us also to our preoccupation with everything that is not God. And now, foremost among these preoccupations is the self: "to find my self" - its so-called 'completeness', 'fulfillment', carried over to its 'liberty of exaltation' (even the exaltation of self-abandon to the intrinsic disorder of homosexual attraction! - the show of their countenance... have proclaimed abroad their sin as Sodom, and they have not hid it: woe to their souls...!" - Is. 3.9) that is independent of God, nay in defiance of God and of His true Church ["Holy," based on the Gospel revealed by the true God of mercy and justice and therefore worketh and abound in truth, charity - not "luv" - and justice]: the cult of man (cf., 2 Thess. 2.3-4, and our post on Vatican II 'Catholicism' as a 'reconciliation' between the Religion of the God-Man and the "cult of man" - "The Great Tribulation"). When the principles, maxims, and 'gender equality' cause of the cult of man finds resonance among those who wear the Scapular, the Rosary, who 'go to church': they are "apostates" in the service of Satan who transformeth himself into an angel of light (2 Cor. 11.14) - not men of the Faith; they [have] the name ["Catholic"] of being alive, but [they] are dead (Apoc. 3.1). But yet the Son of man, when He cometh, shall He find, think you, Faith on earth? (Lk. 18.8 )
