just lol at the GOP who thinks it’s so wise and clever to compromise on the “respect for marriage” bill because it pays lip service to religious liberty as if that clause won’t be promptly eroded by Democrats in future legislation at their earliest opportunity

“Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Thy faithful and kindle in them the fire of Thy love. Send forth Thy Spirit and they shall be created. And Thou shalt renew the face of the earth.”

“we should be ruled by THIS Jewish group not that one”

I am over 90% confident that the current synodal, liberal zeitgeist reigning in the Church right now is best interpreted as the last gasp of 1970s Catholicism and once that blows over it will only improve

unbeknownst to them, massimo faggioli and co are playing a generational war that they’re destined to lose

libcaths are celebrating over the synodal direction of the Francis pontificate, but they’re really just hanging on to a class of 80-90 year old members of the Curia (with few notable, mostly American/German exceptions) who are just products of a bygone generational zeitgeist who happened to win the last papal election

It’s not going to last

If the Spirit did not proceed from the Father and the Son, then the Son would not be the perfect Image of the Father, because He would not receive from the Father all He has with the sole exception of paternity

when Christ likens Himself to the true Vine and instructs us all to “remain in Me”, that shouldn’t be interpreted merely metaphorically nor even just spiritually

through the Eucharist, we not only remain in Him spiritually, but abide in His very Body and Blood, really and substantially

In fact that’s the *only* way to fully abide in Him and Him in us

the Mass is that one unique moment when the distinction between the the mystical Body of Christ and the physical Body of Christ becomes in some sense blurred

It’s the definitive moment in which the one-flesh union between Christ and His Bride, the Church, becomes fully present and manifest

Happy Thanksgiving!

I trusted the plan, did you?

Just as the Eternal Word of the Father from all eternity was to take on human flesh, so the written Word was always meant to take on living flesh through the sacramental Life of the Church

The Sacraments (most notably the Sacrifice of the Mass), are the living embodiment of Sacred Scripture. They include countless references to Scripture while actually making present the very mysteries revealed to us through its sacred, inspired words.

I will be returning sometime in December to cozy.tv to do regular streams dedicated primarily to defending and expounding upon the core doctrines of the Catholic Faith as concisely, accessibly, yet also as deeply as I’m able

Stay tuned!

You may very soon start seeing an onslaught of mainstream Catholic media going all in to attack Nick and the authenticity of his Catholic faith, and they’ll probably appeal to his views on race and Jewish power to do so.

While unpopular in the Church these days, his views on these things are fully backed up by the Church’s theological tradition as well as by the Magisterium itself. I’ll be devoting a large portion of my content to proving that definitively.

Conservative media speculates that Ye and I are being used to hurt Trump… it is the other way around.

Trump and MTG are being used as bait to lure the based back into supporting people like Kevin McCarthy, Ronna McDaniel, and Rick Grenell.

I didn’t leave the MAGA movement… the MAGA movement left me 😔

“[I]t is an absurd notion that blasphemers of Christ should exercise authority over Christians” - from Canon LXIX of the Fourth Lateran Council (ecumenical)

Some Protestants object that if Catholicism were true, you wouldn’t have so many bad Catholics who have daily access to the Sacraments. But it must be remembered that the Sacraments are not magic. They can be relied upon to give us the graces they signify, but we must always do our part to, in the spirit of penance, cooperate with those graces in persistently removing the impediments to those graces which are often the wounds of sin residing from within the depths of our own nature.

This is because our nature is what grace always builds upon and is meant to perfect. Once we do that, which is a lifelong process for all of us, *then* we will become the Sacrament’s true and proper fruits.
