The Church has no definitive teaching on unbaptized children’s fate. I believe God accepts parents’ sincere desire for baptism, and these children, though unbaptized, are in heaven through His mercy.
The Jubilee, rooted in Scripture, symbolizes forgiveness and reconciliation. It emphasizes conversion, penance, and pilgrimage as acts of sacrifice. Pope Francis invites spiritual renewal through grace, penance, and deep commitment to the Church.
Pope Francis fulfilled Our Lady’s request more fully than past Popes, involving all bishops, naming Russia, invoking the Immaculate Heart. This aligns with tradition, God acts in His time, not instantly.
Kneeling during consecration and Communion is essential before the Lord and cannot be rightly forbidden. At other times, follow local norms. Personal devotion is fine if it doesn't disturb others.
The Church, the Mystical Body of Christ, endures beyond politics. God preserves it through crises, raising renewal from the faithful. Trusting Providence, we pray, sacrifice, and move forward in hope.
Christian tradition prefers burial over cremation, honoring the body as the Holy Spirit's temple. Cremation is seen as violent, unnatural, and historically linked to anti-resurrection beliefs by groups like Freemasons.
Since the Council, Neo-Pelagianism has caused a crisis in the Church, downplaying original sin and penance. This naturalism eroded tradition and fasting, which must be restored for spiritual and physical benefit.
Though not forbidden by Canon Law, staying in this liberal group hinders spiritual growth. It's better to join a community where Catholic life and spirituality are taken more seriously and authentically.
If unsure what to confess, ask family for insight. Daily imperfections are normal. Pray for guidance, and confess past sins to deepen repentance and humility without falling into scrupulosity.
It's not your responsibility or a mortal sin. The priest decides validity, if certain, baptism can't be repeated due to its indelible nature. With serious, not scrupulous, doubt, conditional baptism is allowed.
Laypeople can give blessings, but not like a priest or bishop. Their blessings are simple and informal, like a mother making the sign of the cross on her child’s forehead or placing a hand gently. It’s not liturgical or solemn, but a loving, personal gesture rooted in faith.
Only God knows which saints went directly to heaven. While holy, most likely passed through brief purgatory. Martyrs or the good thief may have entered immediately by special grace. Our Lady, immaculately conceived, went directly.
Souls in Purgatory are part of the "suffering Church," united with the Triumphant and Militant Churches as the Mystical Body of Christ. Though unable to pray for themselves, they intercede for us.
Only God fully knows our thoughts and hearts. Angels, though intelligent, can only infer from actions and prayers, they cannot directly read thoughts. This ability belongs to God alone.
Mass broadcasts console the sick, elderly, bedridden, prisoners, and caregivers at home, offering spiritual support and a sense of connection when physical attendance isn’t possible, helping them participate and pray.
