Tag: freedom
The Western World puts a far greater emphasis on freedom than the Eastern World. Our Western concept of liberty has its roots in two master ideas: one, the fact that man has a soul; and the other, that man has the right to own private property. Both these ideas are related one to the other. Man is free on the inside because he can call his soul his own; he is free on the outside because he can call property his own. Property is the economic guarantee of human freedom as the soul is its spiritual guarantee of liberty.

Holy Love Message – 10/20/2018
Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as
the Heart of God the Father. He says: “Children, when leaders lose their
respect for the Truth, Satan is easily the instigator of much
confusion. He can enter hearts in the form of opinions that do not
support the Truth of My Commandments. Evil in the world rewards evil in
hearts.”
“This is why I call you to unite in righteousness. Do not commit
yourselves to any concept unless you can clearly see the intended
outcome of the way you are being led. Remember, Satan most often comes
clothed in goodness. It is a grace to recognize evil so that you can
avoid it and oppose it.”
“The path of moral destruction has been underfoot for decades. Many
follow it in the name of freedom. Freedom to sin has always been with
you. Now, it is considered a ‘right’ that must not be transgressed.
This is how Truth has been defeated.”
“Therefore, unite in the Truth in an effort to oppose evil.”
Read Romans 2:15-16+
They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts,
while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts
accuse or perhaps excuse them on that day when, according to my gospel,
God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.
Read Philippians 2:1-2+
So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any incentive of love,
any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my
joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full
accord and of one mind.
+ Scripture verses asked to be read by God the Father. (Please note:
all Scripture given by Heaven refers to the Bible used by the
visionary. Ignatius Press – Holy Bible – Revised Standard Version –
Second Catholic Edition.)
“Jesus’ life is about joy. He says at the last supper, “I have come so that you might have joy and that your joy may be complete.” How do we relate joy to the law, two things that often seem at odds with each other?
Part of the problem is that we have a very modern sense of freedom: freedom means I can do what I want. I find joy when I can determine my own life.
There is a different view of freedom in the bible – you might call it freedom for excellence – it means the disciplining of desire, so as to make the achievement of the good, first possible, and then effortless.”
-Bishop Barron, Happy Are We
“Human beings are not hungry to choose; they are hungry to choose the good. They don’t want the freedom of the libertine; they want the freedom of the saint. And it is precisely this latter freedom that evangelization offers, because it offers Christ.”
