"If the Body and Blood of Christ in the tabernacle doesn't drive the demons back, why should sacramentals?"

A loaded, but very appropriate question, which deserves an equal response. What we are dealing with here is part of the Mystery of Iniquity.

In Christ's Passion, demons urged on his captors and torturers to great and extreme levels of cruelty. The Will of God allowed for this, as it was fitting in God's plan of salvation. Here we enter into the realm of mysticism. The demons were not afraid to assail his physical body. It was allowed to them to do this.

Nor are they afraid to assail his Mystical Body - the Church - today.

It is not for nothing that the possession of and desecration of a consecrated host is the centerpiece of a black mass. Demons, and those under their control, are again allowed to do all manner of unspeakable things to Christ. This is because a Black Mass is the total inversion and perversion of the Catholic Mass.

In a Catholic Mass, the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary is offered up to God again, in an unbloody manner. And in the mass, Christ is glorified, and tremendous graces are given to those who hear mass. The Black Mass takes the previously consecrated host - which is literally Christ in his flesh and blood - and spits upon, degrades, and reviles Him again. It is all of the torture of His Passion, without His glorification.

But while the satanist in the Black Mass can torture and degrade Christ again, and take pleasure in it, he cannot take away the triumph of the cross. Never. He merely repeats the torture of the physical body, and mocking of his divine majesty - to his own eventual downfall.

Christ allows himself, in the Eucharist, to be either revered by or reviled by men. He is the wiling prisoner of love in the Tabernacle, where he waits upon souls to come and visit with him. Where the churches are locked all day, Christ is insulted and reviled again - as nobody can come and pay homage, and look with love upon their Redeemer and Creator. For that sin, many priests and Bishops will pay dearly in the next world.

As Christ allowed his physical body to be assailed in His Passion, so he allows it in both the Eucharist, and in the physical form of His Mystical Body (the Church) to be assailed by wicked men, who would revile him again. This is one of the mysteries of the Catholic faith.

So since he - willingly - is defenseless in the tabernacle, it is up to those who love Him.....who are good and true Catholics to defend Him, and his Bride, the Church.

Christ did and does willingly give himself to be bled for us. When the soldiers came to arrest him in the Garden, Christ asked them: "whom do you seek". The answered: Jesus of Nazareth". He replied: "I AM HE". They soldiers fell to the ground and the pronouncement of the name of God by God. Christ was showing clearly that He had the power to save himself, if he so chose. So he did and does suffer willingly for us.

Sacramentals are given to us as spiritual weapons - armor against evil. They have tremendous power over demons when used with faith.

In Exorcism the two most powerful sacramentals are Holy Water, and the Crucifix. These are of great power to make demons flee. In particular the crucifix, as it is the symbol of their utter defeat. For despite their best work at killing the Body of Christ on the cross, it was by the cross itself that Christ overcame sin, death and hell.

Christ's Body & Blood are the sacrificial lamb - the penultimate sin offering. He was born for the purpose of suffering and dying thus. Demons are not afraid of that Body, as they killed it slowly once, and have in many, many instances in occult ritual tortured it again and again over the centuries. In the "person" of the Mystical Body of Christ, demons have incited leaders of nations to torture, enslave, and execute millions of Christians over the centuries. Thus, continuing the torture of the Body of Christ.

A modernist priest once told me that the reason that Churches had large devotional crucifixes in them was to scare away the Jews. Nothing could be further from the truth. The crucifix is an affront to the Devil - it is the sign of his ultimate doom. The Holy Water is poison to him and his legions, as it is the cleansing water of Baptism. The Holy Oils are an affront to Satan as they are used to consecrate and hallow churches, altars, and persons when they are Confirmed - sealed forever with the Mark of God, and given the power (if they choose, in faith to use it) to do battle with demons using the power of the Holy Ghost.

That is why these Sacramentals cause demons to screech and flee. Becuase in them is the power of the victory won on Calvary.

"This is the sign which Satan's legions fear, and angels veil their faces to revere.........Each newborn soldier of the Crucified bears on his brow the seal of Him who died....".

All the legions of hell, Satan himself, and those who give themselves to his service here cannot stand before the sign of the cross. They have no choice to be flattened by it, and other sacramentals. No power in this world - and Satan is lord of this world - can stand against the power of the cross......holy water.....holy oils......blessed salt.....the rosary.

Simple, inexpensive things, accessible to even the poorest person. These things have more power then all the money in the world, as they are the ultimate WMD.....which lays waste the ancient enemy.

Nice post.

You bring up an interesting but puzzling paradox. Possessed people are repelled by the sight and touch of a consecrated Eucharist. Yet, Satanists are able to touch and defile consecrated Eucharists. I suspect some metaphysical influences to enable them to perform the latter?

That post was excellent. It makes me want to be mass right now, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow morning.

Please cite the verses that mention this.

The Will of God allowed for this, as it was fitting in God's plan of salvation.

See above.

Here we enter into the realm of mysticism.

Your two above statements do not relate to mysticism.

The demons were not afraid to assail his physical body. It was allowed to them to do this.

Please provide evidence to support this claim.

Just to clarify: Does Christ feel the present-day assaults by satanists on his body as he felt the assaults by the executioners on his body during the Passion?
