This passage begins the final section of 2 Corinthians, in which Paul calls the church to join with him in opposing false teachers who threaten the spiritual health of the church. These opening verses serve as a call to spiritual warfare. In these six verses, the Christian is encouraged in God's divine power and equipped to go forth with gospel confidence, confronting a world seeking refuge in unbelief.

Malachi Tresler. Revelation 13:1-18. "Satan wages war on us through political power and religious deception—endure and resist."

The celebration of All Saints' Day encourages the Christian in the midst of battle. The Church Militant is reassured of the gospel by reflecting on God's goodness toward the Church Triumphant. In this sermon I draw our attention to the blessings God gives to the martyred, persecuted, and all His people who are ridiculed. When the world says all kinds of evil against us falsely on account of Jesus, we are blessed!

In this episode of the Say Yes to Holiness podcast, Christina Semmens shares her personal journey of faith and grief as her husband battles lung cancer. She reflects on the significance of the liturgical feasts of All Saints Day, All Souls Day, and the Communion of Saints, emphasizing the importance of striving for holiness, deepening one's love for God, and the power of prayer and intercession for the departed. Christina discusses the necessity of real effort in faith, the role of sacrifice, and the impact of indulgences, encouraging listeners to live in the present and act with intention to fulfill their spiritual mission. Takeaways Christina shares her personal journey of grief and faith. The Communion of Saints consists of the Church Militant, Triumphant, and Suffering. Real effort is required to strive for holiness and win the crown. Deepening love for God is essential for a meaningful spiritual life. Prayer is crucial for strengthening faith and hope. Intercession for the living and the dead is a vital practice. Sacrifice and mortification can aid in saving souls. Indulgences can be obtained through acts of mercy and prayer. Living in the present is key to fulfilling our spiritual mission. We are created to become saints and fulfill God's will. Sound Bites "The future is not in our hands." "We need to seize today." "We are created to become holy."

Friends of the Rosary, Today, October 31, is the Eve of All Saints, also known as All Hallows' Eve or Hallowe' en, and commonly known as Halloween. In England, saints or holy people are called “hallowed,” meaning “All Hallows' Day.”Halloween or All Hallows' Eve is not a liturgical feast on the Catholic calendar. However, the celebration has deep Catholic meaning. The three consecutive days — Halloween, All Saints Day, and All Souls Day — illustrate the Communion of Saints. In other words, Halloween is the preparation and combination of the two upcoming feasts. We, the Church Militant (those on earth striving to get to heaven), pray for the Church Suffering (those souls in Purgatory), especially on All Souls Day and November. We rejoice and honor the Church Triumphant (the saints, canonized and uncanonized) in heaven. We also ask the Saints' intercession for us. The demonic, witchcraft, and macabre practices have no place in a Catholic celebration. Do you need to dress in any costume? Tied to the theme of the saints, as shown below. Let's imitate them and what they did to reach heaven by preparing our souls for death. [To learn more, please check these interesting links at our website]. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! + Mikel Amigot | RosaryNetwork.com, New York • October 31, 2024, Today's Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET

This week we study the hymn "The Church's One Foundation" (Hymn 473 in The Lutheran Hymnal), written by English hymn writer Samuel Stone who wrote this hymn in the late 1800's. This hymn is found in the Communion of Saints section of our hymnal, but it is also appropriate for Reformation, which we will be celebrating this weekend. It wonderfully describes what the Church is, as well as how it is established and maintained.  Stone masterfully weaves passages from the Old and New Testaments together, using pictures from Jesus, Paul, Peter, John and even the Psalms to describe the Holy Christian Church and the enemies that it faces in this fallen world. It also comforts the Christian who fights in this battle of the Church Militant with the assurance that Christ has won, and that Christ's Church will be preserved no matter what challenge it faces. It will become the Church Triumphant!  Study this hymn with us, as we are reminded Jesus is the Church's One Foundation and that the "gates Hades will not prevail against it"! (Matthew 16:18). Thanks be to God! The LORD bless your worship and proclamation of this truth, both this weekend, and always!

"The Church on Earth," otherwise known as "The Church Militant," is the historic idea of God's own people, spiritually prepared and armed, who will resist and eventually overcome evil. We find early instructions for Israel to live this reality in Moses' parting speech in Deuteronomy 4. Ephesians sees righteous living as a manifestation of these same promises for God to empower His people against demonic forces of evil. And Jesus Himself embodies that power that routinely overcomes evil through His healing ministry as well as His Passion. For us today facing these same forces of evil, there is nothing stronger than offering prayer in the Spirit with fervor and faith. May we find these examples and exhortations encouraging in our lifelong struggle against evil. Readings: Deuteronomy 4:1-9; Psalm 15; Ephesians 6:10-20; Mark 7:1-23

You think that David Waldman has it easy as host of the KITM Show? The Freedom Caucus released their FART team 20 some hours before our Friday show. All of the good jokes are done! Marjorie Taylor Greene could have finally shown leadership aptitude in FART, had she not been thrown out of the caucus. Moscow Marjorie sure supports Vladimir Putin and yet has not been conscripted into the Russian army… or maybe she has... The Bill Barr sleeper cell reawakes. Am I the only one, or did you also believe that people get in trouble when they ignore subpoenas? Section 702 of FISA expires tonight unless Mike Johnson can change that. Misplaced merkin Rand Paul leads the opposition. It's another day in the notorious mob dotard Donald Trump's election interference trial. Of course, Trump is a notorious mob dotard, so finding jurors too ignorant to despise him is tough. Of course, Trump is a notorious mob dotard, so keeping jurors safe from his mob hits will be tough. Of course, Trump is a notorious mob dotard, so keeping the room cold enough to keep TFFG awake will challenge every occupant. If it's really a problem, Donald can always request a second blanket for his cell. Israel had a chance to cut that out, but chose differently. If FEMA needs to keep fishing you out of your Florida neighborhood, they want you to pay higher insurance rates. Ace KITM Correspondent Rosalyn MacGregor has been corresponding, but we need to catch up on the publishing. Recently, Michigan Democrats won special elections to regain full control of state government, while Michigan Gops can't even control themselves. Recently, one of Michigan's anti-LGBTQ+ hate groups, Church Militant shut down, though it might be strategically retreating to friendly territory. Recently, that is, in the last few hundred years, the Methodist church has been schismatic, and particularly schismatized in today's increasingly diverse, equitable and inclusive environment.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Lk 21:5-11 - While some people were speaking about how the temple was adorned with costly stones and votive offerings, Jesus said, "All that you see here– the days will come when there will not be left a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down." Then they asked Him, "Teacher, when will this happen? And what sign will there be when all these things are about to happen?" He answered, "See that you not be deceived, for many will come in My Name, saying, 'I am He,' and 'The time has come.' Do not follow them! When you hear of wars and insurrections, do not be terrified; for such things must happen first, but it will not immediately be the end." Then He said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be powerful earthquakes, famines, and plagues from place to place; and awesome sights and mighty signs will come from the sky."

Go on your way; behold, I am sending you like lambs among wolves. Carry no money bag, no sack, no sandals; and greet no one along the way. Into whatever house you enter, first say, 'Peace to this household.' If a peaceful person lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. Stay in the same house and eat and drink what is offered to you, for the laborer deserves payment. Do not move about from one house to another.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Lk 4:38-44 - After Jesus left the synagogue, He entered the house of Simon. Simon's mother-in-law was afflicted with a severe fever, and they interceded with Him about her. He stood over her, rebuked the fever, and it left her. She got up immediately and waited on them. At sunset, all who had people sick with various diseases brought them to Him. He laid His Hands on each of them and cured them. And demons also came out from many, shouting, "You are the Son of God." But He rebuked them and did not allow them to speak because they knew that He was the Christ. At daybreak, Jesus left and went to a deserted place. The crowds went looking for Him, and when they came to Him, they tried to prevent Him from leaving them. But He said to them, "To the other towns also I must proclaim the good news of the Kingdom of God, because for this purpose I have been sent." And He was preaching in the synagogues of Judea.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Mt 23:27-32 - Jesus said, "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and every kind of filth. Even so, on the outside you appear righteous, but inside you are filled with hypocrisy and evildoing. "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the memorials of the righteous, and you say, 'If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have joined them in shedding the prophets' blood.' Thus you bear witness against yourselves that you are the children of those who murdered the prophets; now fill up what your ancestors measured out!"
