Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Babylon. Some of the most significant of these deities were
Anu, Ea, Enlil, Ishtar (Astarte), Ashur, Shamash, Shulmanu,

WHERE EASTER DAY COME FROM
17. WHERE DO WE FIND THIS
IN ROMAN CHATHORIC THEY BELIEVE THAT NO ONE CAN COME THOUGH GOD ONLY
THOUGH JESUS. NO ONE CAN COME THOUGH JESUS ONLY THOUGH MARY. In Roman
Catholic Mariology, Mother of the Church (in Latin Mater Ecclesiae) is a title,
officially given to Mary during the Second Vatican Council by Pope Paul VI. The title
was first used in the 4th century by Saint Ambrose of Milan, as rediscovered by Hugo
Rahner.
The title "Mother of the Church" was used by Pope Benedict XIV in 1748 and then by
Pope Leo XIII in 1885.Following the title's usage by Leo XIII, it was later used many
times in the teachings of John XXIII and Paul VI.[5] The title was also used by Pope
John Paul II[6][7] and is used in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Pope John Paul II stated that overall the title indicates the Blessed Virgin Mary's
maternity of Christ's faithful, as deriving from her maternity of Christ in that "Mary is
present in the Church as the Mother of Christ, and at the same time as that Mother
whom Christ, in the mystery of the Redemption, gave to humanity in the person of
the Apostle John [cf. John 19:27]. Thus, in her new motherhood in the Spirit, Mary
embraces each and every one in the Church, and embraces each and every one
through the Church."[9] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_of_the_Church)
18. NAMES OF gods in tribes(ANCIENT)
• EGYPT: ISIS AND HER SON OSIRIS
• INDIA: ISI AND ISWARA
• CHINA AND JAPAN: SHING MOO THE HOLY
MOTHER & SON
• GREECE:CERES OR IRENE &PIUTUS
• ROME: FORTUNA & JUPITOR
• LOZI PEOPLE: NYAMBE AND
HER WIFE NASILELE
19. THE ORIGIN OF DAGON gods
• Dagon was originally an East Semitic Mesopotamian
(Akkadian, Assyrian, Babylonian) fertility god who
evolved into a major Northwest Semitic god,
reportedly of grain (as symbol of fertility) and fish
and/or fishing (as symbol of multiplying). He was
worshipped by the early Amorites and by the
inhabitants of the cities of Ebla (modern Tell Mardikh,
Syria) and Ugarit (modern Ras Shamra, Syria) (which
was an ancient city near the Mediterranean containing
a large variety of ancient writings and pre-Judeo-
Christian shrines). He was also a major member, or
perhaps head, of the pantheon of the Biblical
• Philistines.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagon)
24. • In Egypt, the Babylonian Mother was known
as Isis and her child as Osiris. It is common to
see this kind of monument in Egypt of Horus
seated on his mother (as seen in the
accompanying statue to the right).
25. BABYLON BROUGHT IDOLS IN CHURCH
• LIKE A WOMAN AND A BABY.
• ALL IDOLS GET INSIDE ROMAN CATHOLIC AS
WOMAN AND BABY
28. They pray the mother and child
while Isis and son Osiris
29. They pray to gods of fertilies
Mary to all goodes of fertilies
30. • In India, she was known as Indrani (left), who was also
represented with a child in her arms. The Babylonian
Mother was known as Aphodite or Ceres to the Greeks;
Nana, to the Sumerians; and as Venus or Fortuna to the
pagans in Rome, and her child was known as Jupiter.
For ages, Isi, the "Great Goddess" and her child Iswara,
have been worshipped in India where great temples
were erected for their worship. In Asia, the Mother was
known as Cybele and the child as Deoius.
31. They call Mary queen of heaven
• "Hail, O Daughter of God the Father,
• Hail, O Mother of the Son of God,
• Hail, O Bride of the Holy Spirit,
• Temple of the Most Holy Trinity.
• Amen."
• - Pope John Paul II; Address at Blessing of Marian Shrine:
• Poland, Monday, 7 June 1999
32. NEW CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA
Vo.9.p.386
• Pius xii affirmed strongly the queen ship of
Mary, inserting in the calendar for may 31, a
new feast of Mary Queen. Pius xii consecrated
the world to the immaculate heart of Mary.
Mother & Queen, October 31, 1942, as a
public recognition of her Queen ship.
• MARY IN CATHOLIC TOOK OVER DIETIES IS
WORSHIPED CATHOLIC
33. They call Mary the queen of heaven
• Queen of Heaven is a title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary by Christians mainly
of the Roman Catholic Church, and also, to some extent, in Anglicanism and
Eastern Orthodoxy, to whom the title is a (disputed) consequence of the First
Council of Ephesus in the fifth century, in which the Virgin Mary was proclaimed
"theotokos", a title rendered in Latin as Mater Dei, in English as "Mother of
God".
• The Catholic teaching on this subject is expressed in the papal encyclical Ad Caeli
Reginam,[1] issued by Pope Pius XII. It states that Mary is called Queen of
Heaven because her son, Jesus Christ, is the king of Israel and heavenly king of
the universe. The Eastern Orthodox Churches do not share the Catholic dogma,
but themselves have a rich liturgical history in honor of Mary.
• The title Queen of Heaven has long been a Catholic tradition, included in prayers
and devotional literature, and seen in Western art in the subject of the
Coronation of the Virgin, from the High Middle Ages, long before it was given a
formal definition status by the Church.

37. HOMILY OF POPE FRANCIS
Vatican Basilica
Sunday, 7 July 2013
Dear friends, with great confidence I
entrust you to the intercession of Mary
Most Holy. She is the Mother who helps
us to take life decisions freely and
without fear. May she help you to bear
witness to the joy of God’s consolation,
without being afraid of joy, she will help
you to conform yourselves to the logic of
love of the Cross, to grow in ever deeper
union with the Lord in prayer. Then your
lives will be rich and fruitful! Amen.
(http://www.vatican.va/phome_en.htm)
38. Mary.
• At once virgin and mother, Mary is the symbol
and the most perfect realization of the Church:
"the Church indeed . . . by receiving the word of
God in faith becomes herself a mother. By
preaching and Baptism she brings forth sons, who
are conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of God,
to a new and immortal life. She herself is a virgin,
who keeps in its entirety and purity the faith she
pledged to her
spouse."170(http://web.archive.org/web/20071
012151758/http://usccb.org/catechism/text/pt
1sect2chpt2art3p2.htm#145)
39. Catechism of the Catholic Church
• Paragraph 6. Mary—Mother of Christ, Mother of the
Church
After her Son’s Ascension, Mary “aided the beginnings of
the Church by her prayers.”(p.506) In her association with
the apostles and several women, “we also see Mary by
her prayers imploring the gift of the Spirit, who had
already overshadowed her in the Annunciation.”(p.507)
(p.975) "We believe that the Holy Mother of God, the
new Eve, Mother of the Church, continues in heaven to
exercise her maternal role on behalf of the members of
Christ" (Paul VI, CPG # 15).
