Chapter 4, "Sacrificial Charity"

What an incredible year it has been. From the Tridentine documentary script's Chapter 4, subtitled "Tuum Sincere."

From the Tridentine documentary's script, Chapter 4, for every soul. 

The entire documentary is coming Christmas 2024.

TUUM SINCERE

"God had one Son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering" ~ Saint Augustine

One’s daily wedding to Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul begins in the holy silence, in the holy peace, and in the holy quiet, and God is also very quiet.

When God is especially quiet, wondrous things are about to take place.  

Over and over and over and over, as Jesus just keeps coming and coming and coming and coming, the comparison is made with weddings which won’t work, because they focus on one’s self, and the  most important wedding possible and which God determined is to be the first and foremost relationship throughout each person’s life and the foundation for all one’s other relationships: the wedding of one's heart, mind, life, and soul to Jesus Christ its Divine Bridegroom. 

“You have made us for Yourself, O Lord, and our hearts will remain restless until they rest in You.” ~ Saint Augustine

SACRIFICIAL CHARITY

“Charity is patient, is kind: charity envieth not, dealeth not perversely; is not puffed up; it is not ambitious, seeketh not her own, is not provoked to anger, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth with the truth; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

Charity never falleth away: whether prophecies shall be made void, or tongues shall cease, or knowledge shall be destroyed.” ~ 1 Corinthians 13:4-8; Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

YESTERDAY CHRIST'S SACRED HEART WAS MANIFESTED TWICE BEFORE LEAVING FOR THE CHURCH AS BEATING WITH LOVE

There is a reminding of what recurred just the other day, the manifestation of the living, beating Sacred Heart of Jesus prior to that morning's Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and wedding of one's self to Christ during It.

The Sacred Heart of our Savior beats for all souls in general and for every one of our souls in particular.

THE MANIFESTATION OF THE BEATING, PULSATING SACRED HEART OF JESUS CONTINUES AS IT HAS SINCE MAY 2024

On this day, your heart is manifested as beating with love for Jesus in return and then your two hearts beat together as One in His, for the greater honor and glory of our Triune God first and foremost and then for the sake of the whole world.  

As the offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass continues, there is a private renewing of and re-offering of the self to God in return in the holy silence, in the holy reverence, and in the holy hiddenness.

WHO WORKS ON HIS/HER WEDDING DAY?

"Happiness is a great power of holiness. Thus, kind words, by their power of producing happiness, have also a power of producing holiness, and so of winning men to God." ~ Father Frederick William Faber

Who works on his or her wedding day to Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul? Working people who strive with all of God's Almighty might to live in imitation of and in union with Christ. 

“All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” ~ Saint Francis of Assisi

Laborare est orare (to work is to pray). 

THE HOLY GHOST IS SUDDENLY MANIFESTED AT THE HIGH ALTAR

The Holy Ghost is above the tabernacle on the High Altar, overseeing offering that is there, which has been growing each day.

That collection consists of gifts of one’s self as Almighty God wills, guided by the Holy Ghost and in union with Christ.

ONCE AGAIN AS TOOK PLACE THE MORNING BEFORE, ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO CHRIST'S HIGH ALTAR THERE ON MOUNT CALVARY AND WHAT IS BEING COLLECTED ON IT

Once again today, another Sacred Host is placed in the supernatural on Christ's High Altar, after having folded one's hand several months back while consenting to lose on the winning side, in order to gain what is of true and eternal value.

The receiving of Holy Communion, of the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, morning after morning is manifested as the collection being taken up from On High.

This shows the apostolic nature of what is taking place in modern times, work that had previously been compared to a poker game in the natural. However, this is no mere game of chance; it is a spiritual battle for precious, priceless, and immortal souls that has two opposing forces determining the strategy for each side.

The Sacred Hosts received and the sanctifying grace obtained from Jesus accrue there on His High Altar each day, similar to poker chips accruing on the table during a high-stakes card game in the natural.

Almighty God is taking up a special apostolic collection using His Work of Reparation to the Holy Face of Jesus. 

This comparison is not meant to be crass, but rather instructional, for the consequences of this apostolic mission, and its search and rescue missions, are eternal for precious, priceless, and immortal souls.  

Although what has been needed had been accrued, more continues to be added to this priceless treasure each morning, during each Divine Royal Wedding to Christ, at the time of the celebration of the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in Latin.

THE READING OF THE GOSPEL

We are to receive, learn, become, live, and share the Gospel through Christ, the Eternal Word.

"Preach the Gospel at all times; use words when necessary." ~ Saint Francis of Assisi 

JESUS CHRIST AND HIS CELEBRANT FACE EAST, WITH YOUR BELOVED PACIFIC OCEAN BEHIND YOU TO THE WEST

What is significant here is that it is God’s will that weddings take place in proper order, in God's House where He is to be worshiped, honored and adored above all.

Our Creator is to be invited as the Guest of Highest Honor, and honored most in His House, and all offerings of self are to be made in union with Christ so all receive His Divine supernatural graces, which are and always will be needed.

Favored destinations are not to take precedence and nothing is worth celebrating and doing in His absence. 

To show His pleasure with having today’s wedding to Christ celebrated God’s way, which is always the right way, God has brought a favored destination to this extraordinary occasion: the Pacific Ocean.

It is there in the supernatural, behind you to the west, indicating being at that location is not of primary importance during this unfathomably joyous occasion. 

WHY THE PRIEST FACES EAST

The orientation of the priest at the altar is a part of the rites determined by the Church.

“It is for reasons of propriety that we adore facing East. It is most especially because of the divine majesty that the East symbolizes, where the movement of heaven has its origin. Afterwards, it is there where the Earthly Paradise was established according to the text of the Septuagint (Genesis 2:8): we appear therefore to want to return there. Lastly, it is because of Christ, the light of the world who carries the name of Orient (Zacharias 6:12) and who “has risen above all the heavens in the East” (Psalm 78:34), whence we await His supreme return, according to Saint Matthew (Matthew 24:27): “As the lightning goes from the East and shines until the West, like this would be the return of the Son of Man. (9)” ~ Saint Thomas Aquinas 

BRINGING IN THE WORLD AND ITS INTENTIONS, WORK PLACES, HOMES, AND ALL OTHERS INTO THE CHURCH FOR THE WEDDING

Jesus gives Himself to us completely in the Blessed Sacrament - Sacred Body, Precious Blood, Soul, and Divinity - and we are to give ourselves to Him entirely.

We are to ask Him, "What can I do for You, dear Lord, who loves us so lavishly?"

Jesus repays His beloved with God Himself.

WHO GOES TO HIS OR HER WEDDING IN NEED OF A DOCTOR?

Who goes to his or her wedding in need of a doctor, while in labor at this day’s wedding, about to deliver the precious fruits of one's union with Christ through the Sacraments He instituted for our sake? 

In the world superficial appearances and the spending of money take precedence while planning and celebrating the wedding but not here, where the Royal Wedding to Christ our Divine Gentleman King calls for leaving one's self behind to wed and be unified to Him and His apostolic mission, with sacrificially loving genuineness and proper caring, pledging anew each day eternal fidelity to God first and foremost and to love one's neighbor as one's self with purity of intention, devoid of self interest.   

One brings one's holy poverty, and it is through one's need that the most incredible acts of charity are possible through the sacramental graces obtained during most costly wedding possible: one’s wedding to Jesus during the offering of the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin. 

PRIOR TO THE CONSECRATION: THE OPEN BOOK

The Roman Missal on the altar is open to the page on the left with the image of Jesus Christ crucified on the Cross for our sake, and this book is manifested in the supernatural as every soul’s wedding album.

The words inside the Roman Missal form the most magnificent and stunning pictures possible, pictures of who God is, of who we are, and of what our relationships with Him, ourselves, and one another are to be.

This book of immeasurable worth is manifested as the best wedding album possible.

The images come to life through it during the celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and then through us, through our lives in imitation of and in union with Christ and His Immaculate Mother.

Instead of spending money on frivolous services and things that are enjoyed for just a few hours, the focus is on the giving and the spending of one’s self as God wills for each one, for God and together with God for His greater honor and glory first and foremost and then for the good of all, including one’s self.

The wedding gift is the gift of self, completely willing at all times come what may to conform and be conformed to the most perfect will of Almighty God our Creator and Sovereign Authority, in imitation of and in union with Jesus Christ, guided by the Holy Ghost. 

For better and for worse. While wanting less and less. During good times and bad times. Never to be parted.

The focus of the wedding is not on the self but on self-giving as Almighty God wills.

The primary focus is not on decorations or garments or the candle or performers or music or flowers or the celebrant or of any of the guests, it is on God and on serving He who alone is to be worshiped and adored in the manner in which He wills. 

THE CONSECRATION, FINAL ELEVATION, AND HOLY COMMUNION ARE QUIET IN BOTH THE NATURAL AND IN THE SUPERNATURAL 

They are quiet, very peaceful, and so pleasant.

Worldly weddings rob people of their peace from the very beginning.

ECCE HOMO POURS FROM THE CROSS

Ecce Homo: Behold the Man!

Why do thieves punish the honest man? Because they are guilty and He is not.

True sacrificial charity is authentic prosperity.

THE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS CONCLUDES FACING EAST, WITH THE PACIFIC OCEAN MYSTICALLY PRESENT BEHIND YOU IN THE BACK ROW AND TO THE WEST, AND THE INSIDE OF THE CHURCH IS SUDDENLY MANIFESTED AS SAINT JOSEPH’S CARPENTERY SHOP

What incredibly beautiful preparation just prior to leaving the church to go to work, newly wed anew to Christ. 

DIVINE UNION: LEARNING TO FALL IN LOVE WITH THE DIVINE KING OF ALL KINGS AND LORD OVER ALL

How unfathomably beautiful it is to grow ever deeper in love with Jesus who is complete purity of intention, to see Him in one’s self and within every man, to see God’s loving Divine Providence in every circumstance and within the events of every second of every day and night, to watch God’s love proliferate profoundly, to want what He wants, and by His Divine power worship and praise and adore and serve and thank Him ever more profoundly.

To pray that God’s most perfect will be done is to have every prayer answered.

IN CONCLUSION: THE MARIAN PRAYERS FOLLOWING THE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS

"When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son. After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own." ~ John 19:26-27

In conclusion the Immaculate Mother of Jesus, the Divine Bridegroom of every soul, is honored for Jesus gave her to us to be our Mother also. 

We need the graces first and foremost from our wedding to Christ in order to fulfill God’s will as He wills it, and accomplish the God-given work of one’s holy apostolate.

This is ratified there on Mount Calvary at Christ’s High Altar inside of God’s House, the Wedding Venue of His choice, having elevated marriage to a Sacrament.

Since Jesus said to Sr. Mary of St. Peter regarding His Sacred Heart and her Immaculate Heart, "Never separate these two hearts…“, then to be unified with His Heart is to be also unified with Hers.

“Each of you knows that the foundation of our faith is charity. Without it, our religion would crumble. We will never be truly Catholic unless we conform our entire lives to the two commandments that are the essence of the Catholic faith: to love the Lord, our God, with all our strength, and to love our neighbor as ourselves… With charity, we sow the seeds of that true peace which only our faith in Jesus Christ can give us by making us all brothers and sisters. I know that this way is steep, and difficult, and strewn with thorns, while at first glance the other path seems easier, more pleasant, and more satisfying. But the fact is, if we could look into the hearts of those who follow the perverse paths of this world, we would see that they lack the serenity that comes to those who have faced a thousand difficulties and who have renounced material pleasure to follow God’s law.” ~ Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati
