I don't think men today understand how terrible the sin of impurity is. In this highly effeminate world, they might look upon impure behavior as understandable for a healthy man.

The Theban legion numbered more than six thousand men. They were encamped near the Lake of Geneva in the southwestern part of Switzerland, under the Emperor Maximian, when they got orders to turn their swords against the Christian population, and refused to obey.

“I beg of you to beware of thinking of the Rosary as something of little importance – as do ignorant people and even several great but proud scholars.

THE EXORCISM OF NICOLA AUBREY - Taken from the book The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass by Fr. Michael Muller (Imprimatur: Archbishop McClosky, New York 1884). It is indeed a remarkable fact that, as the devil made use of Luther, an apostate monk, to abolish the Mass and deny the Real Presence; in like manner, God made use of His arch-enemy, the devil, to prove the Real Presence. He repeatedly forced h...
