Be not afraid. Even as John Paul II preached that and lived it, to the end of his days, so must we, confident in the Resurrection of Our Lord and our place in heaven through Holy Church, its sacraments, saints, and the protection of Our Lady and Archangel Michael.
We shall not be moved by false prophets, even if they claim to be Christians, Prods or Catholics. We shall not be moved by omens and confusion. Our faith is built on the eternal Rock.
No one but the Father knows the day and the hour. For us individually, and for God's good green Earth, Our Lord will come like a thief in the night, so what is there to fear?
If I can say with Paul at that awesome hour, that I fought the good fight, it will be enough.
Erin go Bragh!
I agree, so what? So what that the end may be near, or not. None of us get outta here alive, hello? If we would be priveleged to see our Lord come back, well thats wonderful. But the end, your end is always near, we just don't live very long in the cosmic sense of things.
