Do Catholics Claim, Sins After Baptism are Only Forgiven in Confession?

I was starting to listen to a video, which this time was not from the other mystic, I think Anne Katherine Emmerick*, but from St. Bridget of Sweden (or as we say in Sweden, Denmark, Norway : of Vadstena).

Second, think about the mercy of God, because there is no man who is so sinful that his sin is not immediately forgiven, if he only prays for Gods forgiveness with an intention to better himself and with true repentance for his former sins.

Note, in order for St. Bridget to be canonised, every jot and tittle of her revelations was scrutinised to contain no doctrinal and no known factual error. This is about doctrine. If someone is truly repenting, God forgives even before confession, and even if one should have no opportunity to go to confession before dying. However, before you go to receive Holy Communion next time, except in case of huge hurry before dying, you do need to confess, you need to be forgiven sacramentally, before holding communion with Christ sacramentally./HGL

What if Adam and Eve had not sinned? The Prophecies and Revelations of Saint Bridget of Sweden

* I am used to the spelling Emmerich, the High German form. However, she was born in Coesfeld, a village in the diocese of Münster, and this is not far from the Netherlands, so, the Low German or Dutch form makes some sense in this context.

Let's Assume Some Orthos are Blocking

1) I am a convert from Lutheranism and from further back a basically Evangelical outlook before I was baptised, but also a revert from Neohimerite Orthos. I did not abjure Roman Catholicism when converting to them, and I did not abjure Eastern Orthodox when converting back, a k a reverting.
2) I know for a fact that Neohimerite Orthos are neither comfortable with the papacy nor with some traditional readings of the Bible, like the ones involves in Young Earth Creationism.

So, I providentially or by feeds being pushed by actual people get suggestions for watching things. One video-short is by an Orthodox priest. Another one is by Brewery Ministries, and I follow up.

My problem with such people isn't that they find some things I have written objectionable and then object to them. My problem is, they don't object to them, but decide I should not "rush ahead" (from their perverted pov), they need to give me "another chance" (after 1000 "other chances" already offered and already declined) to think things through, SO, they don't confront me in a comment "hey, I think you wrote sth incorrect here" they pray for me to get confronted with or use the feed's possibility of video suggestions, to get me to get confronted (obliquely, by someone else) to the pov they would like me to be confronted with but will not confront me with themselves.

Here are the videos (technically known as shorts) I am talking about with my comments under each:

Eastern Orthodox or Roman Catholic? ☦️

Saint James was monarchic bishop in Jerusalem after the Twelve Apostles spread out, so these were in fact collectively ruling Jerusalem before he did.

They were also ontologically bishops, i e consecrated, before he was.

The Roman Catholic claim is not that Apostolic Succession comes only through St. Peter.

The Apostolic Succession in the order of episcopal consecration can come from any of the Twelve.

We claim however, the episcopacy can only be canonically exercised in communion with St. Peter or the canonic successors of St. Peter.

1) Genesis 11:1 does not chronologically follow after Genesis 10.
2) The texts were created at the events or closely after and transmitted to Moses. Each could change in response to more correct info being added, like if the confusion of languages happened after the overview in Genesis 10, this would affect the original text of Genesis 10 and the oral tradition would add that.
3) That Moses stringed these two texts after each other that order doesn't equate to chronological order, but to the Genesis 10 text referring back to getting out of the Ark and then on to the Tower text, while the Shem genealogy refers back to the Tower text and on to Abraham. That's why the Tower text is put between these two. The chapters were only divided in the 13th C. AD by a bishop going on a hunt and doing it as he knew the Bible by heart.

How stupid can Bible scholars be?

They think it was a shared trade language, while each culture had its own language, two problems.

Glaring ones.

1) Peleg is born 101, 401 or 531 years after the Flood, depending on text. That's not long enough for languages like Sumerian and Old Egyptian to differentiate, at least not without massive conlanging. This problem can be restated "where did 'other languages' come from if this was shortly after the Flood.
2) God confuses a trade language, which differred from already different native languages. Well, that means each participant in the project already had experience of language learning and at least the concept of a lingua franca. That would not have put the project on a halt for 4500 years to Cape Canaveral and Bajkonur, but just a decade or two, while a new lingua franca was being constructed.

If on the other hand everyone had the same native language, with very minute dialectal differences (lesser than within English, since some versions of English go back to or are influenced by versions going back to dialects pre-existing Caxton's printing press, and since 500 generations were fewer generations back then), and God confronts them for the first time in their lives and their memory with language barriers, it could take some centuries until people learned how to learn someone's language. This would definitely have derailed Nimrod's project far more effectively (Nimrod's doesn't equate to him taking sole initiative, he was trusted to execute the plan).

Bible hints that people existed outside of Eden
@breweryministries
https://youtube.com/shorts/fWmR9nrT4hg?si=XUnNLuDS-qqeLsdY

By the time Cain was even born, every human creature (at his birth exactly three) was living outside Eden.

Are you aware that the idea that the creation of Adam is distinct from the creation of man in Genesis 1 comes from Jewish extra-Biblical and highly racist texts, that post-date Christianity?

There is no traditional reading of the story in which, by the time he commits fratricide, he, his parents, and his dead brother are the only people, back to three.

The Genesis 5 statement of Adam begetting sons and daughters doesn't start with Adam begetting Seth, it's placed after it just to mention it doesn't end there.

Cain's wife was his sister or possibly niece.

Remember Seth was born 230 or in the Masoretic and perhaps Samaritan 130 years after Adam was created. He and Eve were created adult and fully fertile. They didn't live in crowded cities yet in which certain couples might find other people an obstacle to taking care of their children.

By the time of the fratricide, there were plenty of people already around, Adam, Eve, their children, their grandchildren. Cain married a sister or a niece or was already married to one when doing the killing.

@breweryministries

I don't think I'd heard that about Adam but I favor the oldest possible sources. I usually try to avoid anything written after the first century. It helps avoid some of those problems where new traditions emerged.

Hans-Georg Lundahl

@hglundahl

OK, @breweryministries ... you are aware that all the CF of the first C. as well as the NT itself in Mt 24:16-20 exclude your view that traditions emerged that did not come from Jesus and still enveloped all of the Church?

Brewery Ministries

@hglundahl I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I really haven't decided whether or not people existed outside of Eden or not. Just sharing what Bible scholars discuss and find it interesting.

Hans-Georg Lundahl

OK, @breweryministries ... if a Bible scholar pretends "whom was he afraid of, when there had been only four people and now were back to three?" that's strawmanning the traditional position heavy.

I don't believe in strawmanners, neither should you.

NOW.

Perhaps some Orthos imagined I needed to hear the anti-YEC stuff from an Evangelical, as if they were my authority. I am leaving out for now an Ortho video debunking at once Original Sin (which St. Gregory Palamas believed in, believing the Virgin was exempt!) and Total Corruption, as if these were the same. The fact I got that in the prompt however confirms my suspicion. My authority for YEC being true in its exegesis of the Bible is Sts. Augustine and Basil, not Kent Hovind and Ken Ham, even if I find them refreshing. When it comes to solving problems posed by so-called science, the modern Creationist movement has contributed, but Orthos rejecting Creation Science will nevertheless accept the "science" of Atheists, as if they likened the accreditation of Academics to the Apostolic Succession and Catholic Communion of the Bishops. Now, the Church back when St. Augustine wrote City of God actually had and still has a promise from God, Academics don't have that promise. They are people with minds created in God's image, and so am I. Their minds are not totally corrupt by Adam's sin, neither is mine. In fact, it's probable the idea we need to rely on Academics and cannot trust our own judgement comes from Calvinists believing the TULIP T, which, as said, I don't. Can some Orthos please get it into their minds that I have thought through why I returned to Catholicism, and I had thought through Young Earth Creationism and Geocentrism at least in relation to basics, before I made my excursion to them?/HGL

What is Jesuit Spirituality?

"He bore His wrath for me" — Did He? · Did the Devil Retain His Power? No · What is Jesuit Spirituality?

It obviously does not involve claiming God poured His wrath on Jesus.

I was just looking up an email from the Jew-Gone-Christian Dr. Michael Brown or his ministry Charisma House.

He outlines a problem:

For many, revival is something they want to experience, but don’t know what to do with it after a first emotional encounter.

A hope:

However, as God’s people, we CAN sustain the flames of revival to share the gospel with all of creation!

If I am right that the Catholic Church is God's REAL people, this should be even more true about Catholics.

And he gives a detailed solution:

In Dr. Michael Brown’s Seize The Moment, you’ll learn how to spread and sustain revival throughout your community by partnering with the Holy Spirit. You will be challenged to:

• make Jesus and the cross central
• reach the lost
• never downplay the importance of holiness
• steer clear of doctrinal weirdness
• keep the main thing the main thing
• and so much more

OK, some will quibble with me for indirectly promoting a book by a (technical) Protestant. Here is the deal. He is so perfectly resuming Catholicism in this outline (cannot guarantee the same is to be said for the book, though).

Let's take each part separately, and find out how that matches Jesuit spirituality. Well, except perhaps the first one or two.

spread and sustain revival throughout your community

To St. Ignatius of Loyola, sustaining his personal revival after Manresa involved getting, not indeed the whole parish, but at least a few devout women friends of his profit from it.

However, once he had a bit more meat on his bones, after studies in Paris and ordination to priesthood, he actually was more into spreading it to all Catholics. At personnalised degrees, though.

by partnering with the Holy Spirit

How about "submitting" rather than "partnering"?

But, yes, he did.

He lived from the inspirations of grace (and had a good technique on how to distinguish these from the subtle temptations of the devil).

He lived from the sacraments, which is how the Holy Spirit is given to members of the Church.

make Jesus and the cross central

Have you seen the Jesuit logo?

In the middle, you have IHS = IHSOYS = Jesus.

Above it, you have the Cross.

Below it, three nails used at the Crucifixion (one for each hand, one for both feet together).

Around all, to underline how central it is, rays like sunrays emanating from what's inside. On this painting of St. Michael throwing the Devil down to Hell, the sunrays are lacking, but the rest of the Jesuit logo is on the shield of St. Michael:

reach the lost

Harlots in Rome? Sinful couples who can be saved by a marriage which the laws make difficult? Protestants? Hurons?

Sounds like St. Ignatius was perfectly on line with this part.

• St. Ignatius started a home for repenting prostitutes in Rome, under the protection of St. Mary Magdalene;
• when a couple not looked kindly on by parents risks a continued love affair without marriage, because the law of the land in France did not recognise the Council of Trent, in Place Royale, by Corneille, it's a Jesuit priest who, illegally according to France, but legally according to the Church, marries them;
• The priests in England were not just serving Catholics, but also trying to convert Protestants;
• St. Jean de Brébeuf

never downplay the importance of holiness

If you held up Luther, Calvin, St. Ignatius and St. Francis of Sales in a blind test to Michael Brown, I'm pretty sure he would clearly prefer the two Catholic saints.

The problem is, Michael Brown cannot be so unsavvy about authors and doctrines as to make a real blind test possible.

steer clear of doctrinal weirdness

While St. Ignatius of Loyola's criteria would differ highly from those of Michael Brown, as to decide what is doctrinal normality and what is doctrinal weirdness, this was to a very high degree a priority for him and for his order.

https://mycatholic.life/books/ignatius/part-one-background-of-saint-ignatius-and-lessons-from-the-spiritual-exercises/chapter-ten-rules-for-thinking-with-the-church/

keep the main thing the main thing

Jesuits were so willing to adapt when it came to subordinate things, they even got called out for syncretism in the question of Chinese Rites.

and so much more

For which I will give only one item, but an important one.

What did St. Ignatius of Loyola inherit from Devotio Moderna?

Well, part of it is to make everyday objects and situations remind one of God and of one's duties to God. The five vowels of Latin have their spiritual meanings (E "is crying - in Latin flet - for your sins" or U may have been feeling the pains of Jesus along with him, decades since I read that book). Those precise techniques are perhaps not the most used by Jesuits or Ignatian Exercises, but the idea is the same, telling Jesus : "All kinds of everything remind me of Thee" ...

I just called Michael Brown a "technical" Protestant, but isn't he an actual one? In Ecclesiology and in Sacramentology, alas, yes. But not in the items outlined in the above quote, or I wouldn't have quoted it. Now, when it comes to Ecclesiology and Sacramentology, usually, Holiness Churches, being usually Baptist, are further away from Catholicism than for instance Anglicans. But when it comes to personal holiness, it's actually Catholics who are in the middle, between Anglicans who claim you can be the beloved child of God while living a systematically sinful life, and between Michael Brown who wants every congregant to be on fire for Jesus 24 by 24. In Catholicism, being between both is a matter of recognising different levels, on the line of Matthew 13:8, if someone brings forth hundredfold fruit, he's obviously "good ground" but so is he who brings forth only thirtyfold.

Did the Devil Retain His Power? No

Did the Devil Retain His Power? No · Did the Devil Retain His Power? Revisited, Still No

1 John 5:19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world is seated in wickedness.

[19] "The whole world is seated in wickedness": That is, a great part of the world. It may also signify, is under the wicked one, meaning the devil, who is elsewhere called the prince of this world, that is, of all the wicked. John 12. 31.

19 οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐσμεν καὶ ὁ κόσμος ὅλος ἐν τῷ πονηρῷ κεῖται.

John 12:31 in Haydock comment:

John 12:31 Now is the judgment of the world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

Ver. 31. Now is the judgment of the world: Their condemnation, says St. Chrysostom, for not believing. --- The prince of this world, that is, the devil, shall be cast out from that great tyranny, which he had over mankind, before Christ's incarnation. (Witham) --- By these words Christ informs the Gentiles that wished to see him, that soon he would punish the incredulous Jews, and cast off their synagogue, for their malice and insatiable hatred against him; and that the prince of this world, that is, the worship of idols, should be destroyed, and all called to the true faith. (Calmet)

I would say, "the whole world is seated in wickedness" is the correct translation, and that meaning "the world" outside Catholicism.

Published estimates for the 1st century ("AD 1") suggest uncertainty of the order of 50% (estimates range between 150 and 330 million).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimates_of_historical_world_population

According to his calculation, it was around 180 that global Christian numbers first surpassed the symbolically weighty figure of 100,000.

https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/evangelical-history/how-many-christians-were-there-in-200-a-d/

So, with the Christians being less than one percent, as in Sweden today Catholics are a bit more than one percent, the remaining close to 99 % can be considered "the whole."/HGL

It highly parallels Catholic Iconography of the Baptism. In both, we have the Father stretching out and down His arms around the lifted hands of Jesus. In both He has the expression of a father enjoying the company of His Son.

The Wrath of God Was Satisfied: Wondrous Love in ...
https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/the-wrath-of-god-was-satisfied

Bonjour,

L'accès à l'URL https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/the-wrath-of- est restreint.

Catégorie : Sexe, Pornographie Description de la catégorie : Contenu pornographique et érotique. Les sites incluant un nombre de liens publicitaires pornographiques significatifs sont aussi classés dans cette catégorie

I highly doubt that the people behind the site either involved pornography or linked to it. Perhaps the nakedness of Jesus on the Cross triggered a "porn" label, or perhaps there was someone abusing the filter to censor a Christian site. Now, one can obviously ask how Christian it is with that theology, but still, it's clearly not a porn site in the usual sense of the word.

This link actually gave a more direct answer, but a wrong one.

Six Things You Need to Know About God’s Wrath
COLIN SMITH | MAY 16, 2017
https://openthebible.org/article/six-things-you-need-to-know-about-gods-wrath/

The Bible speaks about God’s wrath being poured out at the cross: “I will soon pour out my wrath upon you, and spend my anger against you” (Ezekiel 7:8). This takes us to the heart of what happened there: The divine wrath toward sin was poured out on Jesus. He became the “propitiation” for our sins (Romans 3:25), which means that the payment for our sins was poured out on Jesus at Calvary.

Whom God hath proposed to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to the shewing of his justice, for the remission of former sins
[Romans 3:25]

Nothing about the wrath of God being poured out, but about His justice.

What about Ezechiel?

Now very shortly I will pour out my wrath upon thee, and I will accomplish my anger in thee: and I will judge thee according to thy ways, and I will lay upon thee all thy crimes
[Ezechiel (Ezeckiel) 7:8]

Pouring out of God's wrath is very clearly mentioned, but Christ isn't. Like Jews denying the Suffering Servant of Isaias 53 is Jesus and who confuse Jesus with Israel, Colin Smith also confused Jesus and Israel, but the other way round, denying Ezechiel 7 was about the punishment of Israelites.

I am happy that the google search also brought me this essay, which basically agrees with me:

On God’s Wrath Misplaced and Misunderstood
Joshua Issa | 6 min read | Mar 14
https://itsjoshissa.medium.com/on-gods-wrath-ed80e7a868bd

So does David B. Sloan:

It’s not that Jesus was being punished by God for our sins. We read Paul too individualistically here. He is speaking of a corporate issue. Humanity (as a whole) had sinned, and so humanity was experiencing its just desserts – mortality. Romans 5 emphasizes not the fact that Jesus had died, but the fact that Jesus had committed an “act of righteousness” or “obedience” that was more powerful than Adam’s act of disobedience. “For the wages of sin is death” (i.e., human mortality is the result of our sinfulness), “but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Nowhere here does Paul express the idea that Jesus had to pay those wages for us. Instead, chapter 6 lays out a different path:

What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. [Rom 6:1-4]

It is not that Jesus paid the wages for us, but that we died to sin and can now experience the gift of life.
