Laetare Sunday
Laetare
Jerusalem
(Rejoice,
O Jerusalem,
Is. 66.10). Thus, Holy Church bids us in her Introit for today's Mass
as it is in her, not in the Synagogue which witnessed the tragic
destruction of its life - the accursed Temple which shall never rise
again - that this passage was perfectly realized. Indeed, the
Lord is round about His people, from henceforth now and forever (from
the Tract of the Mass, Ps. 124.1-2) so that she shall
not be moved
[that is, she shall not fall into official idolatrous cult for she
can never fall into official doctrinal error in the first place:
being
deceived with error thou adore strange gods, and serve them
(Deut. 30.17); cf., Mt. 16.18 why 1 Tim. 3.15 - contrary to what the
'Bible-only' sectarians impiously asserted].
In
today's Holy Gospel (the feeding of five thousand men, Jn. 6.1-15),
the Lord and Savior manifested the might of His divine solicitude
providing, out of five barley loaves and two fishes, for the hungry
multitude who followed Him that they not faint even unto spiritual
death. By this miraculous bodily refection, He is pointing to us who
now see
with
the eyes of Divine Faith the Mystery of the Holy Eucharist :
2.
The care for the
fragments (Jn.
6.12) of the Living
Bread -
for even in their smallest particle is, by Concomittance, the same
Real, True and Substantial Lord and Savior whole and entire -by His
priests lest
they
be desecrated
as when received by unwashed unconsecrated hands (the Protestant
practice of the "Vatican II-Church" and granting that the
Neo-Catholic priest standing as a Protestant assembly-"presider"
in Lutheran or Episcopalian attire is positively, not probably, a
validly ordained one).
Truly,
the Church was still not moved to hand over to the
dogs the
Living
Bread though
the desacralizing 'spirit' of Vatican II has swept so vast a number
of her indifferent and complacent children under false
Neo-Catholic/Neo-SSPX obedience by Apostolic Resistance of standing
fast
and holding
the
traditions... we
have
received of the
Apostles. Laetare
Jerusalem! for,
to borrow from the counsel of St. Francis de Sales in one of his
Sermons on the Feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
she, the true
Catholic
Church being the true
solicitous
Spouse
of a
most solicitous
Christ,
has chosen the more consoling role: to rather attend to the great
care of her Beloved
Who comes to her tabernacle under the form of a hapless wafer.
