Corinthians, Chapter 7, Verse 15
And his heart goes out to you all
the more, as he remembers the obedience of all of you, when you received him
with FEAR and trembling.
We
know that if our fear gives way to a deep sense of peace and joy when we seek
to be reconciled to God; then it is the holy fear of God and we are on the
right path.
Let
those turn to me who fear you and acknowledge your decrees. (Ps. 119:79)
According to Copilot:
Chapter 7 of 2 Corinthians offers profound insights into fear from a
Catholic perspective, particularly in relation to repentance, holiness, and
reconciliation with God.
1. Fear as a
Catalyst for Holiness – Paul urges believers to cleanse themselves from all
defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. This
fear is not about terror but reverence—a deep respect for God that leads to
moral purity and spiritual growth.
2. Fear
Leading to Repentance – Paul contrasts godly sorrow with worldly sorrow. Godly
sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, while worldly sorrow leads to
despair and death. Catholics view this as an encouragement to embrace
contrition—a sorrow for sin that draws one closer to God rather than away from
Him.
3. Fear of
Separation from God – The Corinthians' mourning and zeal for Paul reflect their
fear of losing their relationship with him and, by extension, their connection
to God. This aligns with Catholic teachings on the importance of spiritual
accountability and the role of Church leaders in guiding the faithful.
4. Fear as a
Sign of Respect and Obedience – Paul commends the Corinthians for receiving
Titus with fear and trembling. This phrase, often used in Scripture, signifies
humility and obedience—key virtues in Catholic spirituality.
Ultimately, fear in this chapter is not about dread but about reverence,
repentance, and a desire for holiness. It is a fear that leads to
transformation, strengthening one's relationship with God and the Church.
The Masculine Spirit[1]
In
America we are gradually seeing the wholesale destruction of the masculine
spirit. We are so confused many of us don’t know which bathroom to use. Is this
just another attempt by Satan to kill the body as God created it? Men and women
need to value themselves and value the beneficial characteristics of
masculinity and to reject the false images of being male. Men and women were
created to be different. They were created to be in partnership, neither one
dominating the other, each using their God-given gifts of gender for the
benefit of the other and for the redemption of the world. The spirit of man is action oriented yet at times it is
imperative that men to be fully men of God; must borrow from the female spirit
the art of reflection. We must become aware of the wounds from our childhood
that drive us toward destruction and trap us in unhealthy behavior as adults.
We must reflect and learn from our mistakes, so we are not doomed to repeat
them. As we reflect we can see most men fall into one of four Archetypes—King,
Warrior, Magician, and Lover. Archetypes are blueprints, primordial images that
affect how we think, feel, and react to life’s situations. A balanced man can
be all four simultaneously directing his energy to the problem at hand but
problems come when a man gets stuck and becomes trapped in one archetype. Each
type has positive and negative characteristics of which a balanced man can tap
to be a hero or a villain.
To be continued…
Which are the fruits of the Holy Ghost? They are the twelve following:
1. Charity.
2.
Joy.
3. Peace.
4. Patience.
5. Benignity.
6. Goodness.
7. Longsuffering.
8. Mildness.
9. Faith.
10. Modesty.
11.
Continency.
12.
Chastity.
These fruits
should be visible in the Christian, for thereby men shall know that the Holy
Ghost dwells in him, as the tree is known by its fruit.
Notice I have placed the Fruits of the Holy Spirit in stairstep
fashion so we may reflect on them seeing that by concentrating on each step of
our growth in the spirit we may progress closer and closer to our heavenly
Father. Today we will be focusing on the eighth step which is Patience.

PART FOUR:
CHRISTIAN PRAYER
SECTION TWO THE
LORD'S PRAYER
Article 4 THE
FINAL DOXOLOGY
IN BRIEF
2857 In the Our Father, the object of the first three petitions is the
glory of the Father: the sanctification of his name, the coming of the kingdom,
and the fulfillment of his will. the four others present our wants to him: they
ask that our lives be nourished, healed of sin, and made victorious in the
struggle of good over evil.
2858 By asking "hallowed be thy name" we enter into God's plan,
the sanctification of his name - revealed first to Moses and then in Jesus - by
us and in us, in every nation and in each man.
2859 By the second petition, the Church looks first to Christ's return
and the final coming of the Reign of God. It also prays for the growth of the
Kingdom of God in the "today" of our own lives.
2860 In the third petition, we ask our Father to unite our will to that
of his Son, so as to fulfill his plan of salvation in the life of the world.
2861 In the fourth petition, by saying "give us," we express in
communion with our brethren our filial trust in our heavenly Father. "Our
daily bread" refers to the earthly nourishment necessary to everyone for
subsistence, and also to the Bread of Life: the Word of God and the Body of
Christ. It is received in God's "today," as the indispensable, (super
- ) essential nourishment of the feast of the coming Kingdom anticipated in the
Eucharist.
2862 The fifth petition begs God's mercy for our offences, mercy which
can penetrate our hearts only if we have learned to forgive our enemies, with
the example and help of Christ.
2863 When we say "lead us not into temptation" we are asking
God not to allow us to take the path that leads to sin. This petition implores
the Spirit of discernment and strength; it requests the grace of vigilance and
final perseverance.
2864 In the last petition, "but deliver us from evil,"
Christians pray to God with the Church to show forth the victory, already won
by Christ, over the "ruler of this world," Satan, the angel
personally opposed to God and to his plan of salvation.
2865 By the
final "Amen," we express our "fiat" concerning the seven
petitions: "So be it".
