Msgr. Charles Pope: Why Did Christ’s Glorified Body Still Have Wounds?

By Msgr. Charles Pope - Several of the Resurrection accounts stress that Jesus showed the disciples His wounds. On one level we can understand that He was trying to make clear to them that the same Christ who was crucified stood before them; He was not a ghost or an apparition or simply someone who looked like Jesus… When Christ rose, He took up His same, true body, but it now manifested a perfected glory. When we rise on the last day, the same will be true of our bodies. Why, then, were Christ’s wounds visible in His glorified body? Are not wounds and scars inconsistent with a glorified body?

The Hidden Connection Between Mary and Divine Mercy, by Carrie Gress

By Carrie Gress, National Catholic Register - Eventually, my journey led me back to St. Maximilian Kolbe, who spoke of Mary’s relationship to mercy in his writings. Fr. Kolbe wrote: “St. Bernard says that the Lord God kept for Himself justice, but gave mercy to the Mother of God. I don’t deny that the Immaculate receives the mercy from the Lord God, but she is the personification of this divine mercy and that is why a soul is converted and sanctified if it turns to her.” What is astounding about this is that St. Maximilian wrote this without knowing of St. Faustina’s Diaries and yet he is connecting Mary directly to it.

Liberalism is a Mental Disorder, by Harry Stevens

By Harry Stevens, Regina Magazine - Just think what kind of America we would have now if the woman who will remain nameless was elected president. It did not happen. The MSM is furious, the movie stars are furious. The left is furious. They cannot let it go. What have we seen: resistance from election day onward. The democrats calling for impeachment every chance they get. It is a disorder, they hate, and spread their hate… Look at abortion. This is the lifeblood of the Democrats. Abortion, so-called women’s rights, and liberal democrats go hand in hand. The Covington affair happened after the pro-life march. There was a nexus of events that happened that brought all this together. Just think about it… What does this sound like?

Trump Was Right: 19 States Allow Infanticide, Let Abortionists Leave Babies to Die Who Survive an Abortion, by Micaiah Bilger

By Micaiah Bilger, LifeNews - President Donald Trump (said), “Your Democrat governor here in Wisconsin, shockingly, stated that he will veto legislation that protects Wisconsin babies born alive,” Trump said Saturday at a rally in the state… “The baby is born, the mother meets with the doctor. They take care of the baby, they wrap the baby beautifully, and then the doctor and the mother determine whether or not they will execute the baby,” he continued... Making a chopping motion with his hand, Trump said: “You hear late term, but this is where the baby is actually born. It came out, it’s there, it’s wrapped — and that’s it.”
