Britannica.com defines mortal sin as: “Mortal sin, also called cardinal sin, in Roman Catholic theology, the gravest of sins, representing a deliberate turning away from God and destroying charity (love) in the heart of the sinner. A mortal sin is defined as a grave action that is committed in full knowledge of its gravity and with the full consent of the sinner’s will. Such a sin cuts the sinner off from God’s sanctifying grace until it is repented, usually in confession with a priest. A person who dies unrepentant of the commission of mortal sin is believed to descend immediately into hell, where they suffer the separation from God that they chose in life.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance204 views0 answers0 votesThe summaries of each of the deadly sins are taken from an article written by Father James Shafer, Understanding the 7 Deadly Sins, at simplycatholic.com (https://www.simplycatholic.com/understanding-the-7-deadly-sins/). The first deadly sin is PRIDE: “An excessive love of self or the desire to be better or more important than others. ‘Respect for the human person proceeds by way of respect for the principle that “everyone should look upon his neighbor (without exception) as ‘another self,’ above all bearing in mind his life and the means necessary for living it with dignity.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance168 views0 answers0 votesThe second deadly sin is LUST: “An intense desire, usually for sexual pleasure, but also for money, power or fame. ‘The God of promises always warned man against seduction by what from the beginning has seemed “good for food … a delight to the eyes … to be desired to make one wise.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance215 views0 answers0 votesThe third deadly sin is GLUTTONY: “Overconsumption, usually of food or drink. ‘The virtue of temperance disposes us to avoid every kind of excess: the abuse of food, alcohol, tobacco or medicine.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance180 views0 answers0 votesThe fourth deadly sin is GREED: “The desire for and love of possessions. ‘Sin … is a failure in genuine love for God and neighbor caused by a perverse attachment to certain goods.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance176 views0 answers0 votesThe fifth deadly sin is SLOTH: “Physical laziness, also disinterest in spiritual matters or neglecting spiritual growth. ‘Acedia or spiritual sloth goes so far as to refuse the joy that comes from God and to be repelled by divine goodness.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance181 views0 answers0 votesThe sixth deadly sin is ANGER (or WRATH): “Uncontrolled feelings of hatred or rage. ‘Anger is a desire for revenge … The Lord says, “Everyone who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance175 views0 answers0 votesThe seventh deadly sin is ENVY: “Sadness or desire for the possessions, happiness, talents or abilities of another. ‘Envy can lead to the worst crimes. “Through the devil’s envy death entered the world.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance158 views0 answers0 votesWikipedia defines Eternal Sin: “The unforgivable sin is interpreted by Christian theologians in various ways, although they generally agree that one who has committed the sin is no longer able to repent, and so one who is fearful that they have committed it has not done so.” Also: “… to sin against the Holy Ghost (an unforgivable sin) is to confound Him with the spirit of evil, it is to deny, from pure malice, the Divine character of works manifestly Divine.” What is Creator’s perspective on the concept of eternal and unforgivable sin?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance193 views0 answers0 votesOrganized religion makes much ado about sin and its consequences. It does advocate prayer as one weapon to be used in the battle against it, but we have also learned that the prayers intended for this purpose would hardly be considered “empowered.” Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the most effective means to combat the spiritual degradation of sin?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance185 views0 answers0 votesArthur Guirdham wrote, “Certainly Catharism must have largely spread by example and emanation, but this is not really the whole story. How did it come that a creed that which seems, to many modern students, to have been austere and pessimistic spread with such rapidity? … One factor is, I think, consistently overlooked. In the Middle Ages, people were dominated by the fear of Hell. Catharism to some extent dissipated this fear … If this world is the worst Hell one has to put up with, it must have been, even at its lowest, vastly preferable to perpetual damnation of the Orthodox Christians of the epoch.” What can Creator tell us about the rapid spread and popularity of Catharism?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Reincarnation216 views0 answers0 votesArthur Guirdham wrote, “The inquisitors regarded the purity of the Parfaits (Cathar priests) as something to be used against them, believing that, because it was associated with heresy, it must necessarily be classified with hypocrisy. Evidence for the corruption of the Roman Church at the time is adequately provided by Pope Innocent III, who instigated the Great Crusade against the Albigensians but had no illusions about the failure of his own priests.” Then there is the irony of a pope with the name “Innocent” single-handedly being directly responsible for more overt and severe human suffering than arguably any other pope in the history of the Catholic Church—as evidenced by the unhealed trauma of Mrs. Smith eight centuries later. What can Creator tell us about the irony of his chosen name and the sincerity of his belief that God was truly on his side in announcing his horrific edict?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Reincarnation221 views0 answers0 votesPope Innocent III did some good things in life as pope. For instance, he granted Francis of Assisi permission to found his order. There is a story that on the day Pope Innocent III died he appeared to St. Lutgardis in Belgium. St. Lutgardis is considered to have been one of the great mystics of the 13th century. When Pope Innocent appeared to her, he thanked her for her prayers during his lifetime but explained that he was in trouble: He had not gone straight to heaven but was in purgatory, suffering its purifying fire for three specific faults he had committed during his life. He made a desperate plea for help: “Alas! It is terrible; and will last for centuries if you do not come to my assistance. In the name of Mary, who has obtained for me the favor of appealing to you, help me!” Then he vanished. With a sense of urgency, St. Lutgardis quickly told her fellow religious sisters what she had seen and prayed for his soul. Was Innocent successfully rescued? What can Creator tell us about this remarkable story?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Reincarnation226 views0 answers0 votesThe horror and suffering of the Great Inquisition of the Middle Ages is alive and well in the deep subconscious and akashic records of countless souls alive today and waiting to be born again. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can be used to successfully heal this collective karma—once and for all? And can Creator explain why this healing is necessary in order for humanity to survive and ultimately ascend to greater heights?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Reincarnation270 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Of course, many will equate rational thinking with atheism – which is frankly irrational and a refusal or inability to weigh and factor ALL the evidence for the existence of the divine that becomes self-evident for those who successfully partner with it. How much of atheism is actually attributable to the fear of being punitively judged by a harsh and cruel divinity?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Limiting Beliefs371 views0 answers0 votes
