Proverbs, Chapter
29, Verse 25
Fear
of others becomes a snare, but the one who trusts in the LORD is safe.
Fear of others the political correctness of the
bible. With this fear we are apprehensive of what others may think of us over a
concern of what God thinks of us. We all fall into the trap of wishing for as
many likes as we can get on our Facebook page. We cater to the approval of
others often letting our Lord take the back seat.
Since the French Revolution,
revolting from God’s ways has been the norm for governments and people.
Before the French Revolution, Emperors and Empresses, Kings and Queens
received from God, via the Catholic Church, authority to rule. They were bound
to rule by obeying God’s Rules. There were good Catholic popes, bishops
emperors and kings. There were also bad popes, bishops, emperors and kings who
abused the authority God had given them to rule. But each one of them, at
death, have had to give a detailed account of how they had used the divine
authority they had been given to rule. In fact everyone has some sort of
authority, and we will have to give a strict account to God as to how we used
His authority for the good or the bad. I as a priest will have to give an account
of how I used my priestly authority over the parishioners under my care.
I will have to give an account of all the money, buildings and programs
that I have had under my care while I was an associate pastor and as pastor. Each
one of you, bishops, religious and priests reading this, will also have to give
an account of how you used your God given authority over God’s flock. For us
who have been vigilant in guiding God’s flock to heaven, there will be a reward.
For each one of us who have been lazy, there will be punishment. But each one
of us who has abused our God given authority to persecute holy priests and
people, or mislead our people by telling them not to worry about sin, the devil
and eternal damnation, it will be one horrible awakening into eternal
chastisement. The road to Hell is paved with skulls of bishops and priests”.
Each husband will give an account
of how he ruled over his wife and children. Each parent will have to give an
account of the way they have raised their children. Each teacher, each principal,
each government leader; each Emperor, King, Empress, Queen, and those under
their orders, will also be rewarded or terribly chastised for how they did or
did not implement God’s rules on their subjects. They will also have to give a
detailed account on how they spent God’s money and treated God’s people placed
under their care.
I am totally in favor of the
Kingdom of Jesus Christ. He is the head of the pope, cardinals, bishops,
priests and religious. The Church is head of the Emperors and Kings and those
subject to their authority. Under this system, when the Holy Roman Empire
existed, there was all sorts of great Christian growth as well as cultural
growth: the great cathedrals,
universities, hospitals, buildings, art, all over the world, was created in
this divinely ordered society where God was the center of government and
society. His divinely revealed laws were the laws that men lived by even
though people broke them. This didn’t just start under the great Catholic
Emperor Constantine. We can see it under the rule of the Judges of the Old
Testament, who ruled by God’s authority, inforced His laws and guided by His
wisdom. Under this divine system these judges/prophets were able to guide the
Jewish people into a flourishing society. Under King David we see the great
development and peace of Israel. When King Solomon ruled on the throne of his
father King David, he did not ask for riches or a long life, but for divine
wisdom. When he was faithful to The True God and lived by His wisdom, he built
the great Temple and palace and had wealth unknown before his time. But when he
became overcome by his lust and all his wives, he succumbed to allowing his
wives to bring into God’s kingdom the abomination of worshipping of devil gods.
From then on the kingdom of Israel went down and was eventually divided. And so
his-story (King Saul, King Solomon and all
the other Kings who abused God’s authority) goes on through out time.
Jesus, when He showed his Sacred
Heart to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque in 1671, gave an important message to King Louis XIV of France. He was told to
consecrate France to Jesus’ Sacred Heart and there would be great success in all
his battles and in France. He was also instructed to put the Sacred Heart on
the flag of France to remind everyone that France belongs to God, not the king.
King Louis XIV never did what Jesus asked. King Louis XV also failed to comply
with what Jesus asked for. When King Louis XVI came to rule, again, he did not
obey Jesus’ request. After France financed the American Revolt against Britain,
they ended up deep in debt. So, to try to resolve the problem, King Louis XVI
called together the Estate General. From there, the other Estates were formed
to try to solve the financial crisis. The 1st. Estate consisted of clergy. The
2nd consisted of Nobles. The 3rd. consisted of mostly bourgeois lawyers and
other representatives. This is when democracy took power away from the king. No
longer was it God, from above, who was giving authority through the His Church,
to the kings and queens. Now, through democratic voting, authority was given to
the leaders from below. What ever was the desire of the people who had the most
power became law and Man became god.

God created us. Jesus died for
us. Let us humbly submit to His divine loving laws while we still have somewhat
of a chance to survive. Let us give Jesus His due and obey Him as our King and
resubmit society under Him and His laws. It is so good to be a traditional Catholic
and believe in the Kingdom of Christ the King. And Mary is our Queen too.
Blessed the man who fears the
LORD, who greatly delights in his commands. His posterity shall be mighty upon
the earth; the upright generation shall be blessed.
