That would be Loki
No.
The moon is fickle.
In fact there are a LOT of Gods of Surprises.
But The Ancient of Days is NOT one of them.

No.
SURPRISE!!!!!!!!
NO.
If somebody doesn’t make some serious changes soon he may be surprised to find his skull used in the floor of the Inferno.
He is not going to have female priests.
Maybe not at first, but he's already working on womyn deacons. What's the next logical step after that?
Christ, and by extension the Godhead He represents, is clear about who clergy can be:
Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
He is the God of Revelation, not the God of surprises.
I remember when people said, “he will not allow communion to the divorced and remarried”.....
With all the homo priests in the Vatican II church, who needs female priests?
Jesus chose MEN as the first apostles. Why cant everyone follow the example of Christ?
God is not in favor of ordaining women as pastors nor ordaining men as a separate class of believers distinctively called “priests” who (normally) are celibate, offer up the “real” flesh and blood of Christ as a sacrifice for sins, under the appearance of bread and wine that actually do not exist, and pray to created beings in Heaven. Both are foreign to the NT church.
If you take Scripture as your authority.
1 Timothy 2:12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.
Well...
Galatians 3:28
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Although PAUL seemed to indicate something else at another time...
1 Timothy 2:12-14 NASB
But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet
1 Timothy 2:12
I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. ...unless it is Mary.
(Given to St. Dominic and Blessed Alan de la Roche)
1 | Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall receive powerful graces. |
2. | I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary. |
3. | The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies |
4. | It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of people from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means. |
5. | The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish. |
6. | Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying Himself to the consideration of its Sacred Mysteries shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise Him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just, he shall remain in the grace of God, and become worthy of eternal life. |
7. | Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church. |
8. | Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plentitude of His graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the merits of the Saints in Paradise. |
9. | I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary. |
10. | The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven. |
11. | You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary. |
12. | All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities. |
13. | I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of death |
14. | All who recite the Rosary are my children, and brothers and sisters of my only Son, Jesus Christ. |
15. | Devotion of my Rosary is a great sign of predestination. |
"The Most Holy Virgin in these last times in which we live has given a new efficacy to the recitation of the Rosary to such an extent that there is no problem,
no matter how difficult it is, wheter temporal or above all spiritual, in the personal life of each one of us, of our families...that cannot be solved by the Rosary.
There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot resolve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary."
Sister Lucia dos Santos
Therefore the MOTHER of the God of Surprises is nothing if not necessary in these perilous times!
