The Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Celebrated in Latin
“Our Lord Jesus Christ willed to be born into a home. He could have chosen another means than that of coming to earth to save us. That is the way He chose.
He willed to have a mother and He willed that mother to have a spouse, St. Joseph.
He willed to be born into that home. He willed to live in that home for thirty years out of the thirty-three which He spent here below.
What could be the meaning of our Lord's staying such a long time in a family? It is not because He needed it. He is the one who gave all of the qualities to the home of Mary and Joseph. He was God; He had nothing to receive from them.
But He willed to remain in that home precisely in order to show the importance of the family, because it is from the family that children are born and that is where they prepare for the mission which they are going to have to carry out in the world; just as Jesus willed to prepare Himself for His mission in the midst of His family.
What a great lesson!”
~ Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre
CHAPTER 1
SACRIFICIAL SACRAMENT
“Each of the seven Sacraments was personally, historically
and individually instituted by Christ."
~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J.,
"The Holy Eucharist - The Triple Sacrament - The Triple Source of Grace"
CHAPTER 1
SACRIFICIAL SACRAMENT
“The essence of sacrifice is in the will…” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “The Holy Eucharist as the Real Presence”
SACRIFICIAL SACRAMENT: A SACRAMENTAL LIFE ASSURES ETERNAL LIFE
“A Sacrament is an outward sign instituted by Christ to give grace.”~ The Baltimore Catechism
Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J. taught that one cannot speak of the sacraments without first understanding the two forms of life possessed by every single human person: the natural life of the body, which begins at conception and is animated by the soul, and the higher form of life which is supernatural life and is possessed once the physical body dies.
“Unless our souls are supernaturally alive with the grace of God, our faith tells us we shall die the first death of the body, but also the second death of the soul.” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J.
The death of the soul is eternal death. The death of the soul, or eternal death, is the eternal separation from God.
THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS WERE INSTITUTED BY JESUS CHRIST FOR OUR SAKE
In God’s Divine providence, He ordained the means for us to obtain supernatural life, to grow in one’s supernatural life, and to restore the supernatural life lost by mortal sin.
These means are the Seven Sacraments, which were instituted for all mankind by Jesus Christ.
WHAT A SACRAMENT IS
A sacrament is a visible sign established by Jesus Christ that communicates the grace it indicates.
Jesus instituted the Seven Sacraments for us personally and immediately, and decided the substance of each one, its essential ritual and content, what material is to be used, how each one is to be an effective sign of grace, who He empowered to confer them, and on whom they may be conferred.
The Catholic Church teaches infallibly that “the sacraments of the New Law were all instituted by Christ;” that “these same sacraments of the New Law differ from the sacraments of the Old Law,” and “there are neither more than seven nor fewer than seven sacraments” (Council of Trent, 1547).
Jesus confers graces proper to each sacrament through each particular one.
THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS
The Seven Sacraments are: The Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, Penance, Holy Eucharist, Holy Orders, Holy Matrimony, and Extreme Unction.
THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS ARE PERCEIVABLE BY THE SENSES
The Seven Sacraments are meant to be perceptible to and perceivable by the senses.
For example, the Sacrament of Baptism involves the pouring of water; bread and wine are transubstantiated at the time of Consecration of each Sacred Species into the Sacred Body and Precious Blood of Jesus during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass; oil is used during the Sacrament of Confirmation; words are spoken and perceived; and the rites or rituals that take place are visible.
THE SACRAMENTS ARE SIGNS THAT SIGNIFY
The Seven Sacraments are signs that signify.
In other words, they manifest meaning beyond the visible and sensory religious event that takes place.
For example, the use of water signifies washing, the use of oil signifies strengthening or healing, and eating and drinking signify receiving nourishment.
"The external sign signifies some internal change taking place in the human spirit, and always this change is in the supernatural order, including some area or aspect of Divine grace.” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J.
THE SACRAMENTS ARE NECESSARY FOR ETERNAL SALVATION
Although not every sacrament is necessary for each particular person, the sacraments are necessary for eternal salvation.
In some cases, the actual reception of a sacrament can be replaced by at least one's implicit desire for the sacrament.
WHY GOD CHOSE TO DISPENSE HIS GRACE THROUGH THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS
God chose to dispense His grace through the Seven Sacraments so the mysterious effects of His infinite power should be made intelligible by means of certain signs that are evident to our senses.
“Christ instituted the sacraments because He knew how much we depend on external, visible signs to sustain our faith in His promises.” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “Sacramental Life Assures Eternal Life”
THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS ARE A CONTINUATION OF CHRIST'S WORK OF REDEMPTION
They are “the link between His Sacred Passion on Mount Calvary and our present needs on earth. They are the channels by which His saving merits are now conveyed to a sinful world.” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., "Sacramental Life Assures Eternal Life"
THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS DISTINGUISH CHRIST’S FOLLOWERS FROM ALL OTHERS
They provide a visible and public sacred bond of unity among the members of Christ’s Catholic Church as the One True Faith is professed and proclaimed publicly.
The Seven Sacraments also powerfully witness to others what Christ’s Catholic followers profess to believe.
THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS PROVIDE DIVINE SUPERNATURAL GRACES NEEDED TO GROW IN HOLY HUMILITY
“Our pride leads us to see others as means for our own self-advantage, to the point where we practically define 'love' as the value that another person can serve in our lives.” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J.
So, too, can our pride lead us to see our Triune God first and foremost as a means for our same self-interested ends.
The Seven Sacraments provide the Divine supernatural graces each person requires to grow in holy humility through the constant monitoring of one's pride.
This is accomplished through our submission to material things as a condition for obtaining the graces our Creator determined are necessary for each one’s spiritual life.
THE SACRAMENT OF THE HOLY EUCHARIST ASSURES ETERNAL
LIFE
The Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist assures eternal life and is “the most powerful means we
have to reach our eternal destiny.” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “Sacramental Life Assures Eternal
Life”
Nothing on earth is a more powerful source of grace than the Holy Eucharist, the Real Presence
of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, which consists of two Sacred Species: the Sacred Body and
the Precious Blood of Jesus our Divine Redeemer, Divine Restorer, Divine Remedy for All, and
the Divine Bridegroom of every soul.
THE HOLY EUCHARIST IS A SOURCE OF GRACE THREE TIMES OVER
The Holy Eucharist is a source of grace three times over:
- as the sacrifice-sacrament of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
- as Holy Communion
- and as the Real Presence of Jesus
On each of its three levels as a sacrament, the Blessed Sacrament confers its own specific form
of the virtue of charity.
The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass provides the grace of self-surrender; the Sacrament of the Holy
Eucharist received as Holy Communion provides the grace of charity; and the Real Presence of
Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament provides the grace to live an heroic life.
“God asks us to surrender our wills to His in a thousand ways. I use the verb “asks” us, but this
asking can be very demanding. Leave it to God; there is no limit to the ways that God can
require us to give up what we like, or endure what we do not like.
“The secret is to see His Divine Will in every circumstance of our lives, in which we have to let
go of what is so pleasant to us or suffer what can be agonizingly painful. How we need strength
from our Lord to make these sacrifices which are at the heart of our Christian life. When the
Savior told us we are His disciples if we take up our cross daily and follow Him, He was saying
more than our fertile minds can imagine.”
~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “Sacramental Life Assures Eternal Life”
THE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS CONFERS THE GRACE OF SELF-
SURRENDER
Not only does the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass provides the grace of self-surrender, but “everyone
receives grace from every Holy Sacrifice of the Mass offered throughout the world.” ~Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “The Holy Eucharist as Prayer”
The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is meant by Christ to be the most sublime prayer that we can
make to our Creator and the one that is most pleasing to God.
THE SACRAMENT OF THE HOLY EUCHARIST RECEIVED IN HOLY
COMMUNION PROVIDES THE GRACE OF SELFLESS CHARITY
“The Eucharist is a fire which inflames us.” ~ Saint John Damascene
THE REAL PRESENCE OF JESUS IN THE BLESSED SACRAMENT PROVIDES THE
GRACE TO LIVE AN HEROIC LIFE
The Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament provides the grace to live an heroic life.
“Man’s earthly, imperfect happiness is in proportion to his approach to God - the final goal of his life. The more closely man approaches God by the practice of virtue under the influence of God’s grace, the greater will be his happiness. Worldly goods and pleasures may satisfy man for a time, but of themselves they cannot make him fully happy. Man may enjoy the innocent pleasures and reasonable comforts of life as long as they do not lead him away from God.”
~ The Baltimore Catechism, Lesson 1, The Answer to Question 4
CHAPTER 2
SACRIFICIAL TRADITION
"Indeed, the true friends of the people are neither revolutionaries nor innovators:
they are promoters of tradition."
~ Pope Saint Pius X
CHAPTER 2
SACRIFICIAL TRADITION
“TRADITIO”
“If the Word Incarnate who had absolutely no need of a mother to come among us to accomplish the Redemption, wished that His divine person should receive a body and a soul in the bosom of Mary and that, during thirty out of thirty-three years, He should remain subject to His Mother and be, in a certain way, formed by Mary, how can we imagine that we, poor sinful creatures, have no need of the effective aid of Mary to form us into Christians, and priests?” ~ Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre
SACRIFICIAL TRADITION: PRIOR TO THE OFFERING OF THE MAJESTIC TRADITIONAL TRIDENTINE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS CELEBRATED IN LATIN
Prior to the offering of the majestic Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin, Jesus profoundly manifests His Sacred Heart several times before leaving for the church, and in particular His Sacred Heart is beating.
Buhm buhm, buhm buhm, buhm buhm, buhm buhm.
LOVE IS NOT TRIED BY EASE AND BY SATISFACTION
This manifestation of the living, beating Sacred Heart of Jesus continues several days later, in different locations and in various different ways.
Buhm buhm, buhm buhm, buhm buhm, buhm buhm.
Prior to that, several months ago during the spring of 2024 and in various profound manners, His Sacred Heart was manifested as having erupted mystically into flames.
"Behold this Heart which has so loved men that It has spared nothing, even to exhausting and consuming Itself, in order to testify Its love." ~ Jesus to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
STRIPPED, DIVESTED, IMMOLATED, IN LABOR, AND UNIFIED AS ONE WITH THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS ON THIS ROYAL WEDDING DAY TO CHRIST FOR EVERY SOUL
You arrive at the church on this your soul's wedding day to Christ in order to be wedded anew on this newest day, stripped of everything, divested of self, immolated to the core, in labor (laboring) with purity of intention, and unified as One with the beating Sacred Heart of Jesus the Divine Bridegroom of every soul.
“The soul is never alone in its efforts to attain union; God goes to meet it, giving it His helping hand and drawing it to Himself by means of the holy inspirations which enlighten its mind, and the interior touches which inflame its will. These inspirations and Divine touches are none other than the actuation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, by which God directs the soul and works within it, first to purify and dispose it for union, and then to unite it effectively to Himself by love.” ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., “Divine Intimacy,” p. 1097
In the holy silence and in the holy hiddenness, all the focus is on God alone in the holy poverty, holy simplicity, holy reverence, holy selflessness, holy charity, and holy elegance.
There to spend yourself, the sacred, sacrificial and everlasting vows to Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul burn as a flame within itself, consuming, possessing, transforming, warming, and delighting the human heart willing to give its beloved whatever He wants, without counting the personal cost of giving everything one has that is worth having.
SURSUM CORDA!
It
is the Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity’s Wedding Day, too,
to each willing and properly disposed one of us during the offering –
through Jesus - of the majestic Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass, celebrated in Latin, to Almighty God our Sovereign
Authority.
THE CONFITEOR
Our Lord has you plead for the life of another at the start of this Divine Royal Wedding, while crowned with thorns and veiled with an entire lifetime of reparative atonement.
This request to save the life of someone our Lord favors represents prayers and reparation offered for others and also for all people.
NO SOUL LEFT BEHIND
The pleading for someone’s life takes place at the Divine Bridegroom's request during one’s own Confiteor, during one’s own examination of conscience and admittance of fault, two having become One sacrifice in the Spotless Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, during the Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, after having given yourselves without reserve to one another for the greater honor and glory of God, and then not only for someone in particular but also for the sake of all others.
THE CREED
During the Creed, there is the petition for the sanctification and eternal salvation of all mankind in our time and also through time, until the end of time.
No soul is excluded from this.
ECCE HOMO: BEHOLD THE MAN
Jesus remains manifested in this manner, as having been scourged at the pillar and then presented in this state to the people not just in His time but also now in our time and also through all time until the end of time.
This “Ecce Homo!” (“Behold the Man!”) has been a recurring theme throughout the Traditional Catholic Mystical Wedding Theology Lessons for Every Soul contained within this documentary.
THE CONSECRATION OF BOTH SACRED SPECIES
At the time of the Consecration of both Sacred Species, the Reparative Sacred Heart of Jesus beats with love for all mankind within His elevated Sacred Body and His Precious Blood.
“We ought to remember during this entire contemplation of God that we must apply all that is said of God to Our Lord Jesus Christ, who is God. We cannot separate Jesus Christ from God. We cannot separate the Christian religion from Jesus Christ, who is God, and we must affirm and believe that only the Catholic religion is the Christian religion. These affirmations have, as a result, inescapable conclusions that no ecclesiastical authority can contest: outside of Jesus Christ and the Catholic religion, that is, outside the Church, there is no salvation, no eternal life. Whoever is saved attains to everlasting life by his adhesion to the Mystical Body of Christ.
Another consequence: all of the societies Our Lord created must necessarily work together, in accordance with their entire purpose, to make souls Catholic and to keep them Catholic, in order to procure their eternal salvation, which is the end of all Creation, of the Incarnation, and of the Redemption.” ~ Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre
THE PATER NOSTER (LORD'S PRAYER): WEDDING GIFTS FOR THE ETERNAL FATHER OF THE DIVINE BRIDEGROOM OF EVERY SOUL
At this wedding to Jesus Christ, the most loving of all men, to the Only-Begotten Son of Almighty God our Father, Creator and Divine Sovereign Authority, the Divine Father of the Divine Bridegroom of every soul is presented with what He wills: the giving of one’s self freely, willingly, completely, and genuinely; with humility, purity of intention, and gladness; and with total trust in our Triune God.
HOLY COMMUNION AND DIVINE UNION WITH THE REAL PRESENCE OF JESUS IN THE BLESSED SACRAMENT
While kneeling at the communion rail before Christ's High Altar on Mount Calvary inside of God’s House during Holy Communion and Divine Union with the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, it is manifested in the holy silence and holy reverence that those on either side of you who are kneeling to receive the Real Presence of Jesus are both wedding participants and wedding attendants.
They are there to sacramentally wed and be unified with Jesus individually, while at the same time we are wedding attendants for one another as God alone is worshiped and adored.
So also do we bring people there in spirit for the holy sacrifice, celebration, and Eucharistic Banquet; wedding gift prayer intentions for those in need makes them beneficiaries also of the offering of one’s self, of the wedding celebration to which all are invited and summoned, of the Banquet, of Eucharistic adoration, and of making a proper thanksgiving.
“Even if Catholics faithful to Tradition are reduced to a handful, they are the ones who are the true Church of Jesus Christ.” ~ Saint Athanasius
IN CONCLUSION: PRAYERS HONORING THE BLESSED MOTHER
To be unified with the living, beating, and sacrificially loving Sacred Heart of Jesus is to be unified also with the Immaculate Heart of His Most Holy Mother.
"Never separate these two hearts. It is My desire that you pray to these two hearts for yourself and for sinners." ~ Jesus to Sr. Mary of St. Peter (of the Work of Reparation to His Holy Face)
CHAPTER 3
SACRIFICIAL SELFLESSNESS
“Sacrifice and Joy”
“The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass provides the grace of self-surrender;
the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist received as Holy Communion
provides the grace of charity;
and the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
provides the grace to live an heroic life.”
~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “The Triple Sacrament of the Eucharist”
CHAPTER 3
SACRIFICIAL SELFLESSNESS
“Sacrifice and Joy”
“It is the law of this life: sacrifice and joy go side by side." ~ Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity
SACRIFICIAL SELFLESSNESS: SEEING THE HOLY FACE OF ONE’S BELOVED PRIOR TO THE WEDDING
The Divine Bridegroom of every soul sees His beloved before being wedded to Him during the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that morning, and together they share the time of breakfast.
WHO ARRIVES AT THE CHURCH FOR ONE’S WEDDING TO CHRIST THE DIVINE BRIDEGROOM OF EVERY SOUL WHILE IN LABOR?
Christ's beloved arrives at the church in labor, laboring with one’s holy apostolate of reparation, as the work of Almighty God’s Divine Economy of sanctification and eternal salvation continues through each willing individual in union with Christ and the Work of Reparation to His Holy Face.
We are to participate in the Eucharistic Sacrifice unified as Almighty God wills with the apostlic mission of Jesus Christ the Divine Founder of His One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church, our High Priest; our Divine Redeemer, Divine Restorer, Divine Remedy for All; and the Divine Bridegroom of every soul.
ECCE HOMO! BEHOLD THE MAN
“Above all the grace and the gifts that Christ gives to His beloved is that of overcoming self.” ~ Saint Francis of Assisi
During the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, Jesus Christ our High Priest draws attention to the liturgical colors on this day, red and white, and then He manifests Himself celebrating the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in Latin after having been scourged at the pillar and as One with the celebrant priest in the natural.
Christ's vestments in the supernatural reflect this, as does His Sacred Body, and so will His Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament from the time of the Consecration through the offering of the Lord's Prayer and the final elevation, and then during Holy Communion.
"In Holy Mass, Jesus continues to sacrifice Himself for us, and to offer Himself to His Father, in order to obtain Divine blessings for us. It is true that Jesus offers Himself through the ministry of the priest, but the priest makes the offering in the name of all the faithful, and they, in union with Him... This means that the faithful also are invited to offer the Divine Victim with the priest...and we unite our intentions of praise, petition, expiation, and thanksgiving with those of the priest and Christ our High Priest." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 497
As the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass continues, the veil between God and mankind is manifested in the supernatural as saturated with the Blood of the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
THE MARIAN PRAYERS FOLLOWING THE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS
"On Calvary, Mary did not take a passive part in the Passion of her Son; she united herself with His intentions, and offered Him to the Father. In the same way, when we are present at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, we, too, can offer the Father the Divine Victim who is ours, because He offered and immolated Himself for all of us." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 497
Each one of us is to unify our wedding gift of self to Christ's for our sake, in imitation of the Immaculate Mother of God, offering all to Almighty God through her, for the greater honor and glory of our Triune God and then for the sake of the whole world.
CHAPTER 4
SACRIFICIAL CHARITY
“Tuum Sincere”
“To love is to be transformed into what we love.
To love God is therefore to be transformed into God.
~ Saint John of the Cross
CHAPTER 4
SACRIFICIAL CHARITY
“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 natural 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 that 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
CHRIST'S SACRED HEART IS MANIFESTED TWICE BEFORE LEAVING FOR THE CHURCH THE DAY BEFORE AS BEATING WITH LOVE
At this time, there is a reminder 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 in return 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 IN THIS MANNER SINCE MAY 2024
This morning, your heart is manifested as beating with love for Jesus in return.
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 Almighty God in the holy silence, in the holy reverence, in the holy hiddenness. in imitation of and in union with Christ.
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. do.
“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 CHRIST’S HIGH ALTAR
The Holy Ghost is above the tabernacle on the High Altar, overseeing the offering of self in imitation of and in union with Christ that is there and which has been growing each day.
That collection consists of the gift of one’s self as Almighty God wills, guided by the Holy Ghost and in union with Christ’s offering of Himself in His entirety as Almighty God willed for Him.
SIMILAR TO THE MORNING BEFORE, ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO CHRIST'S HIGH ALTAR THERE ON MOUNT CALVARY AND WHAT IS OF ETERNAL VALUE BEING COLLECTED ON IT AFTER HAVING BEEN OFFERED WITH PURITY OF INTENTION
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 for one’s sake and also for the sake of all others.
The receiving the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament during Holy Communion, morning after morning is manifested as the collection being taken up from On High.
This demonstrates the apostolic nature of what is taking place in modern times, work that had recently 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 in modern times.
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 Jesus 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 between one man and one woman according to His will, if possible inside of God's House where He alone is to be worshiped and adored.
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 Almighty God’s way, which is always the right way, our Divine Creator has brought a favored destination to this extraordinary occasion: the Pacific Ocean.
There it is in the supernatural, behind you to the west, indicating being at that magnificently beautiful physical 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 THE WORLD AND ITS INTENTIONS INTO THE CHURCH FOR THE WEDDING
All are invited to come and believe.
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 each one of us so lavishly?"
Jesus lavishly compensates us with 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 and 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 personal gain through the spending of money take precedence while planning, preparing for, and celebrating one’s nuptials but that is not the case here.
Here, 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 by way of one's need along the Way of the Cross 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, images of who God is, of who we are, of why 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, created by God for the sake of the human race.
The images come to life during the celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and then are manifested through us, 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 to allow one’s self to be conformed to the most perfect will of Almighty God our Creator and Sovereign Authority, in imitation of and in union with Jesus Christ and guided by the Holy Ghost.
For better and for worse.
During times that are good and times that are bad.
While wanting less and less for one’s self.
With a great desire for greater union with God through growth in holiness.
Never to be parted.
The focus of the wedding is not on personal gain 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 so quiet, unfathomably peaceful, and delightfully pleasant.
Worldly weddings in modern times rob people of their peace from the very beginning.
ECCE HOMO: BEHOLD THE MAN!
True sacrificial charity is authentic prosperity.
Why do thieves punish honest men?
Because thieves are guilty and the honest are not.
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 THE INSIDE OF SAINT JOSEPH’S CARPENTRY 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 Christ, the Divine Bridegroom of every soul, is honored, as Jesus our Redeemer personally gave her to us to be our Mother also on Mount Calvary while He was offering Himself crucified for our sake on the Cross.
Divine supernatural graces obtained from one’s wedding to Christ during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass are necessary in order to fulfill God’s will as He wills it, and to accomplish the God-given work of one’s holy apostolate within God’s Divine Economy of Salvation.
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, the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony.
“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
CHAPTER 5
SACRIFICIAL LOVE
“GOD’S PRODIGAL SONS AND DAUGHTERS”
“The more precious the commodity, the higher its price;
and the most precious possession in the world is the love of God.
“You don’t get this, I don’t say for nothing or cheaply; you pay, and you pay dearly.”
~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “The Cost of Loving God”
CHAPTER 5
SACRIFICIAL LOVE
“GOD’S PRODIGAL SONS AND DAUGHTERS”
"Son, thou art always with me, and all I have is thine...But it was fit that we should make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is come to life again; he was lost, and is found." ~ Luke 15:31-32
GOD'S PRODIGAL SONS AND DAUGHTERS
"There are many thoughts in the heart of a man: but the will of the Lord shall stand firm." ~ Proverbs 19:21
This day begins with breakfast in the company of Jesus the Divine King of All Kings and Divine Bridegroom of every soul, prior to leaving for the church for the offering of the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in Latin.
Hungering and thirsting for God at the pre-wedding breakfast in the peaceful company of the Divine Bridegroom, for the Divine Bridegroom of every soul and for the sake of the whole world.
What wonders!
GOD, THE WORLD, AND THE SELF
"Men are generally the carpenters of their own crosses.” ~ Saint Philip Neri
When freely and humbly willing to return to God after having strayed from Him throughout the lifespan, in small ways and in large ways and in all the ways in between, we become God's prodigal sons and daughters.
Life is full of priceless and joyous opportunities to be reconciled with our lavishly loving and merciful God, including through the wedding gift Jesus provided for each one of us: the offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin, where God alone is worshiped and adored as one weds one's life to Christ each time it is offered by a member of His Sacred Catholic Priesthood and as one is unified with Jesus via His Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament.
“It is better to be a child of God than king of the whole world.” ~ Saint Aloysius Gonzaga
Receiving the Sacrament of Penance, which Jesus personally established also for our sake, provides us another vital opportunity of immeasurable worth to be reconciled with God.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Blessed Sacrament are two inseparable Sacraments of Divine Intimacy for every soul.
“Perfection consists in fighting against our imperfections…In this enterprise, we must have courage and patience…in this…we are always victorious provided we are willing to fight.” ~ Saint Francis de Sales
SAINT PHILIP NERI HELPS CELEBRATE THE TRADITIONAL TRIDENTINE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS AS ONE WITH THE PRIEST, WHAT WONDERS
“The language of love is sacrifice.” ~ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J., “The Holy Eucharist – The Triple Sacrament - The Triple Source of Grace”
Our Divine Redeemer has not manifested on this morning that He is celebrating the Holy Sacrifice as One with His celebrant as He had on other days, so in the holy silence you ask the Divine Bridegroom of every soul, "You won't be manifesting Yourself celebrating the Holy Sacrifice together with the priest today?"
Jesus states that on this occasion He is going to meet you during Holy Communion in the center isle at the end of your pew in the very back, and He is going to walk you up the isle to the communion rail where you will kneel to receive and be properly and reverently unified with His Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament.
This is so unfathomably beautiful that many tears of love, longing, fulfillment, and gratitude pour forth again and you reply to Him,
"Jesus, You already came to get me a long time ago."
God's love for every one of us is so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
Let us love Him beautifully in return and above all.
"He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is charity." ~ 1 John 4:8
THE WEDDING ALBUM, THE ROMAN MISSAL ON CHRIST'S HIGH ALTAR, MAJESTICALLY COMES TO LIFE IN THE SUPERNATURAL THERE IN THE NATURAL
"Today I am no longer in myself. I am with my God; all for Him, and He all in me and for me, Jesus is with me, He is all mine. He is alone, alone, and I am alone to bless Him, alone to pay Him court. He dwells in the miserable cell of my heart and His Majesty disappears. We are alone, alone, and my heart beats continually with that of Jesus. Jesus forever! The Heart of Jesus and my heart are one and the same thing. A moment does not pass without my feeling His dear presence always manifesting Himself in the most loving way." ~ Saint Gemma Galgani
THE CONSECRATION: SAINT (FATHER) PHILIP NERI TAKES THE SACRED HOST HE ELEVATED AND PLACES IT ON THE PILE OF HOLY COMMUNIONS COLLECTING IN THE SUPERNATURAL ON HIS HIGH ALTAR, "HEAVEN'S CURRENCY," AS PART OF ALMIGHTY GOD'S SPECIAL COLLECTION BEING TAKEN UP IN MODERN TIMES THROUGH THE SPENDING OF THE SELF IN UNION WITH CHRIST AS HE WILLS FOR THE SAKE OF THE WHOLE WORLD IN OUR TIME
"Teach us to give and to not count the cost." ~ Saint Ignatius of Loyola
This collection, this living offering of self-giving, with purity of intention and devoid of self interest in imitation of and in union with Christ, continues to accrue there as Almighty God wills.
“Lord, when are You going to cash it in and spend it, and on who or what?” you wonder.
THE FINAL ELEVATION, JUST PRIOR TO HOLY COMMUNION
“If you consider the poor in light of faith, then you will observe that they are taking the place of the Son of God who chose to be poor.” ~ Saint Vincent de Paul
St. Philip Neri elevates the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament as One with the celebrant (and also with Christ) facing east at the High Altar in God’s House on Mount Calvary.
DIVINE UNION DURING HOLY COMMUNION
"O sublime humility! O humble sublimity! That the Lord of the whole universe, God and the Son of God, should humble himself like this and hide under the form of a little bread, for our salvation.” ~ Saint Francis of Assisi
All is so much more beautiful and unfathomably moving than can be expressed and experienced via the spoken and/or written word.
Each one of us, God's prodigal sons and daughters, belong at the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin and, when present for the offering of It, and while offering ourselves during it, we become part of the celebration of It and are unified with God through our sacramental union with Christ’s Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament.
CHAPTER 6
SACRIFICIAL SILENCE
“ ORARE”
“Silence is the guardian of the heart's peace and the soul's purity.”
~ Saint Peter Julian Eymard
CHAPTER 6
SACRIFICIAL SILENCE
“ORARE”
Who talks during his or her sacrificial wedding celebration, without making a sound, and while journeying through the past, present, and future?
“Have confidence in the Lord with all thy heart, and lean not upon thy own prudence. In all thy ways think on him, and he will direct thy steps." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6, Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
SACRIFICIAL SILENCE AND ONE'S PRESENCE IN GOD'S HOUSE WITH THE REAL PRESENCE OF JESUS IN THE BLESSED SACRAMENT
"What we need most in order to make progress is to be silent before this great God with our appetite and with our tongue, for the language He best hears is silent love." ~ Saint John of the Cross
Who talks during his or her sacrificial wedding celebration, without making a sound, and while journeying through the past, present, and future?
"He (Jesus) was created by a mother whom He created. He was carried by hands that He formed. He cried in the manger in wordless infancy, He the Word, without whom all human eloquence is mute." ~ Saint Augustine
The holy silence is the wedding conversation which is so pleasing to our Triune God, particularly when one is suffering in union with Christ and unable to think, pray, and offer a coherent thought on such a solemn occasion.
"When I think that, for a sorrow borne with joy, I shall be able to love You more for all eternity, I understand clearly that if You gave me the entire universe, with all its treasures, it would be nothing in comparison to the slightest suffering...the more the soul grows in love, the more it must grow in suffering, too." ~ Saint Therese of Lisieux
WEDDING CONVERSATION
Who laments with utmost trust to one’s Divine Spouse, the God-Man, on one’s Royal wedding day to Christ, in the church and during the majestic, celebratory, and completely personally costly offering of the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin?
The same person in need of the best doctor: Emmanuel, our Divine Physician.
"Sanctify yourself and you will sanctify society." ~ Saint Francis of Assisi
WEDDING MUSIC
The wedding music is the holy silence, and from the holy silence comes the most exquisite, sacrificially loving symphony that makes no sound.
Divine Royal Wedding music that costs no money.
What wonders!
WHO SHEDS BLOODY TEARS AND OFFERS TO GOD A BLOODY SWEAT DURING ONE'S WEDDING?
“He who desires to go on advancing from virtue to virtue, from grace to grace, should meditate continually on the Passion of Jesus … there is no practice more profitable for the entire sanctification of the soul than the frequent meditation of the sufferings of Jesus Christ.” ~ Saint Bonaventure
THE CONSECRATION
While the Prayers of Reparation to the Holy Face of Jesus are offered to Almighty God during the daily offering of the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin, and as willing precious, priceless, and immortal souls are wed to Christ the Divine Bridegroom anew this morning, the suffering Holy Face of Jesus is offered to Almighty God once again as He wills.
However, this time Jesus takes the specific offering of His Holy Face suffering during His Sacred Passion and combines it with the offering of the sorrowful, suffering holy face of His Immaculate Mother to our Eternal Father at His High Altar where heaven meets earth on Mount Calvary, for the sake of the whole world.
Following the consecration of the Sacred Host, Jesus places the elevated Sacred Host being held in His Sacred Hands in the supernatural onto His High Altar, to His left facing east, next to all other offerings of self that have already been placed there in spirit by acts of the free will.
The ongoing analogy, or metaphor, of the poker game reveals that the Holy Eucharist is the unfathomable and immeasurably valuable “currency of heaven” chosen by Almighty God our Sovereign Authority and that the union of our immolated selves with Christ’s apostolic mission, in His time, in our time, through time, and within His Real Presence received in the Blessed Sacrament during Holy Communion is added to the accruing winnings on the "table" - after having already folded one's winning hand on the winning side, having agreed with God to lose in order to ultimately win and never again lose, in the next life, for all eternity.
However, heaven’s currency does not just contain its own set value. It bears, by the Divine power of God, precious, priceless, and eternally valuable human fruit that is sacrificially loving and self-giving, and for that reason its value through Jesus the Divine Victim has the incredible potential to keep growing exponentially.
It can, it does, it has, and it will.
HOLY COMMUNION AND AN APOSTOLIC MISSION
The green fabric behind the High Altar in the natural is brought to your attention in an extraordinary manner during this wedding-sacrifice, and it is noted in the supernatural that some of the walls where you work properly caring for others in need are green also.
Green signifies tranquility, peace, renewal, fertility, and growth.
Green is also the color of the local paper money, and that color can also signify a lack of well being, illness, envy, and greed.
AT THE HIGH ALTAR, KNEELING JUST PRIOR TO RECEIVING THE REAL PRESENCE OF JESUS OUR DIVINE RESTORER DURING HOLY COMMUNION
A request is suddenly made to Jesus the Divine Bridegroom of every soul at this sacred time to correct the Godless, worldly, self-interested, and troubled state most modern marriages are in.
DIVINE UNION WITH THE ONGOING SUFFERINGS OF JESUS WITHIN HIS REAL PRESENCE IN THE BLESSED SACRAMENT TOGETHER WITH THOSE OF HIS IMMACULATE MOTHER AND WANTING WHAT ALMIGHTY GOD WANTS
What soul eager to be wed anew and unified with Jesus focuses with purity of intention not on one’s self on this incredible occasion but on accomplishing the most perfect will of Almighty God, in imitation of and in union with Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul, for the sake of every single other person and without seeking personal gain?
HELPING TO SATISFY CHRIST'S LONGING TO BE LOVED IN RETURN
One must begin with one’s self.
THE GRACE AND THE STRENGTH TO ACCOMPLISH GOD'S WILL AS HE WILLS IT COMES FROM GOD
All each one has to do is be willing.
"In order to be perfect, we must not only obey and honor our superiors; we must honor our equals and inferiors also." ~ Saint Philip Neri
LABORARE EST ORARE
Thanks be to God, off to work to pray some more.
Laborare est orare: "To work is to pray."
"Jesus is happy to come with us, as truth is happy to be spoken, as life to be lived, as light to be lit, as love is to be loved, as joy to be given, as peace to be spread." ~ Saint Francis of Assisi
CHAPTER 7
SACRIFICIAL REVERENCE
“ REVERENTIA”
“God doesn't ask us to do the impossible.
He asks us to do what is possible with God's grace.”
~ Saint Philip Neri
CHAPTER 7
SACRIFICIAL REVERENCE
“REVERENTIA”
"Love is never idle." ~ Saint Teresa of Jesus
REVERENT LOVE
While the worldly wed their own will, at tremendous cost and on a daily basis, God's people willingly renounce their own will and strive - with His help - to accomplish His perfect will at all times and through all circumstances, come what may.
"The love which audaciously urges the soul on to the conquest of Divine union is, at the same time, full of reverence and respect, for the soul understands, much better than before, how sublime and lofty is the majesty of God." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 1084.
Those loving God in return strive to live sacramental lives of heroic virtue through the spending of the self as He wills, in imitation of and in union with Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul, for the greater honor and glory of the Most Holy Trinity first and foremost and then for the sake of all souls, including one's own.
“Love teaches us at all times how much is due God.” ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 1085
WHILE ON THE WAY TO THE CHURCH IN THE HOLY SILENCE AND IN THE HOLY REVERENCE TO WED ONE'S SELF ANEW THIS DAY TO CHRIST, THE DIVINE KING, WITH LOVE THAT SPENDS ITSELF WITH PURITY OF INTENTION DEVOID OF SELF INTEREST
It is quiet, peaceful, and calm in the vehicle, providing an ideal environment to prepare one's heart, mind, and soul for what, and for Who, is coming in church.
There is no superficial fanfare; no crowds line the streets waving and cheering, and nothing had been announced in advance except for the day and time of the offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
The attention is focused away from one's self and is focused instead on our Triune God alone.
"...love makes the soul esteem God so highly that, while ardently desiring to possess Him, it is profoundly convinced of being absolutely incapable of reaching Him. On the other hand, although humble and reverent, love maintains its characteristic audacity and the soul does not cease to aspire to Divine union." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 1086.
AGNUS DEI - LAMB OF GOD: JESUS THE ULTIMATE AND UNBLEMISHED SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS
There in the vehicle, so happy to begin this new day in this manner, our Lord is suddenly asked to have something special play on the radio for this extraordinary daily occasion.
"Please pick a song, Jesus; play the song of Your choosing for me on this morning."
Suddenly the song of His choosing begins playing, music He favors while both escorting you to and while awaiting your arrival at St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church:
A magnificent "Agnus Dei" (“Lamb of God”) sung in Latin.
What wonders!
HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT LOVE THIS GREAT CAN CONTINUE TO GROW AND GROW AND GROW AND GROW?
"Jesus reveals God to us; He manifests Him to us in Himself, His works, and His words. Hence, Jesus is the perfect Teacher of holiness. He teaches us that God wants us to be holy, shows us God as the supreme, infinite ideal of holiness, and enables us to start out toward this sublime ideal." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," pp. 155-156
THE ROMAN MISSAL CONTINUES TO BE MANIFESTED IN THE SUPERNATURAL THERE IN THE NATURAL AS THE "WEDDING ALBUM" DURING THE OFFERING OF THE MAJESTIC TRADITIONAL TRIDENTINE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS CELEBRATED IN LATIN
“Prayer and communion are not to be made or desired for the sake of the devotion we feel in them, for that is seeking self and not God; but we must be frequent in both the one and the other in order to become humble, obedient, gentle, and patient.” ~ Saint Philip Neri
The pages of this extraordinary wedding album contain the greatest love story of all time.
It is also not restricted to, or limited to, one wedding event in time.
In addition, it contains all the events of each person’s life and each one’s inestimable worth.
Imagine the significance, and value, of such an extraordinary wedding album to Christ for every soul.
THE CONSECRATION
"We will profit from the Mass in the exact degree that we practice the virtue that Christ lived and (I don’t know how this is going to sound) died. Christ “died” a virtue when He offered Himself on Calvary in order that we might live, and perpetuate this cosmic event in our midst until the end of time. The Mass in which we believe is the Mass we are called upon to live. Living that Mass will mean dying the Mass. It means dying a thousand deaths to self until happily one day we shall die, like Christ, commending our spirit into the hands of the God from whom we came." ~ Father John A. Hardon, S.J., "Praying the Mass"
The collection obtained through the spending of one's self as Almighty God wills, guided by the Holy Ghost, in imitation of and in union with Christ continues to grow as another Sacred Host is placed in spirit on the collection accruing in the supernatural on His High Altar, this time manifested as being offered through the Immaculate Mother of God, the Mediatrix of all God's lavish Divine supernatural graces.
The church is decorated in the same manner that God's people are outfitted for this magnificent occasion of immeasurable worth, with utmost reverence for this wedding to Christ as our Triune God alone is worshiped and adored.
The cost to and of one’s self, each one’s most precious resource, outfits and adorns us properly for our participation in the Holy Sacrifice and to receive the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, our Treasure of eternal worth and of lasting love and beauty.
"The love which audaciously urges the soul on to the conquest of Divine union is, at the same time, full of reverence and respect, for the soul understands, much better than before, how sublime and lofty is the majesty of God." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 1084
This Holy Sacrifice/Wedding upon which our entire lives are to be modeled and through which we are supernaturally strengthened comes at great personal cost, at the expense of one's self, for it involves the currency of heaven.
"...the contemplation of His (Christ's) grandeurs is not merely a joy...it does an actual work in our souls...which the grace of perseverance can make immortal." ~ Father Frederick William Faber
HOLY COMMUNION: LORD I AM NOT WORTHY
At the foot of the Cross on Mount Calvary at Christ's High Altar, there is deep reverence for Jesus crucified on the Cross between two thieves for our sake - just prior to receiving and being unified with Him in the Holy Eucharist as two moments in time converge into one on this the soul's daily wedding day to our Redeemer, the Divine Bridegroom of every soul.
"Yes, Jesus is ready to meet all souls of good will, to come to your soul and raise it to the much desired union, but He would have you know how to await Him with fidelity, fully and generously devoted to His service." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 1086
Reverentia!
CHAPTER 8
SACRIFICIAL PRAYER
“THE WEDDING BREAD”
“Whatever else the Mass is,
it is meant by Christ to be a prayer,
in fact,
the most sublime prayer that a creature can make to the Creator
and the one most pleasing to God.”
~ Father John A. Hardon, S.J., “Praying the Mass”
CHAPTER 8
SACRIFICIAL PRAYER
“THE WEDDING BREAD”
"Prayer is the light of the soul." ~ Saint John Chrysostom
THE WEDDING BREAD
Devotion to prayer is necessary for the proper development of one's precious, priceless, and immortal soul and for the proper preparation and celebration of each one's Sacramental wedding to - and of the Sacramental banquet and Sacramental Union with - the Real Presence of Jesus the Divine Bridegroom of every soul during the majestic Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin, offered first and foremost for the greater honor and glory of our Triune God each day.
“Without prayerful intervals, "it is a real illusion to pretend to live a spiritual life - not only a serious one, but even the most elementary one." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 35.
The Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass provides the quiet and silent prayer needed to begin; sets the proper precedence for each new day, obtains for us the Divine beacon for the activities and events of our lives; provides proper order to guide us; and nurtures, sustains, and strengthens us.
WEDDING CAKE VERSUS THE WEDDING BREAD OF LIFE
"Pray without ceasing." ~ 1 Thessalonians 5:17
The priest's white vestments immediately set the tone for this lesson during the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
They are the color of Traditional white wedding cake.
“Faith lifts the soul. Hope supports it. Experience says it must. And love says let it be!” ~ Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton
THE SUPREME ACTIVITY OF PRAYER
"It is simply impossible to lead, without the aid of prayer, a virtuous life." ~ Saint John Chrysostom
It is absolutely vital for us – mind, body, and soul - to communicate with God.
"To love God as He ought to be loved, we must be detached from all temporal love. We must love nothing but Him, or if we love anything else, we must love it only for His sake." ~ Saint Peter Claver
THERE IS EVER MORE TRADITIONAL CATHOLIC MYSTICAL WEDDING THEOLOGY FOR EVERY SOUL INSIDE OF GOD'S HOUSE, ON MOUNT CALVARY AS THE TRIDENTINE DOCUMENTARY SCRIPT'S CHAPTERS, LIKE JESUS' REAL PRESENCE IN THE BLESSED SACRAMENT, JUST KEEP COMING AND COMING AND COMING AND COMING
"If we wish to find God in prayer, we must begin by making this very firm decision of our will: to put aside everything - all care, all preoccupation with human things - and concentrate all the powers of our souls on God alone." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 36.
ON MAKING THE DIVINE BRIDEGROOM OF EVERY SOUL AND THE GREATEST OF ALL LOVES PROUD OF HIS BELOVED – ABOVE ALL
We are to strive, with purity of intention and devoid of self interest, to make Jesus Christ the Divine Royal Spouse of Our Soul proud during the celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and then throughout life, through the spending of the self as Almighty God wills for each one, in imitation of and in union with Christ.
“We become what we love and who we love shapes what we become.” ~ Saint Clare of Assisi
The basis for how one properly loves and cares for others is based upon one's relationship with Christ, who by spending Himself on us over and over anew shows us how we are to love God in return.
THE FINAL ELEVATION JUST PRIOR TO HOLY COMMUNION
"Every activity, no matter how important or urgent it is, must therefore be suspended at the prescribed time, so that all the strength of the soul may be concentrated in the supreme activity of prayer. These hours are sacred." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 35.
Just before receiving our Lord's Real Presence in the Holy Eucharist, as the small, round, and humble Sacred Host is elevated by the celebrant before Jesus makes Himself available in His entirety to each willing and properly disposed one, it is manifested in the supernatural that we are to love and value Jesus and His Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament, for they are both Him, as He just keeps coming and coming and coming and coming and sacrificing and sacrificing and sacrificing and sacrificing and loving and loving and loving and loving and giving and giving and giving and giving of Himself to us as Almighty God wills.
“Jesus is happy to come with us, as Truth is happy to be spoken, as Life to be lived, as Light to be lit, as Love is to be loved, as Joy to be given, as Peace to be spread.” ~ Saint Francis of Assisi
HOLY COMMUNION AT THE COMMUNION RAIL
"He who wishes for anything but Christ, does not know what he wishes; he who asks for anything but Christ, does not know what he is asking; he who works, and not for Christ, does not know what he is doing." ~ Saint Philip Neri
How much more we are to prepare for receiving the Real Presence of Jesus during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Wedding Bread of Life and Divine Source of our redemption, sanctification, and eternal salvation, than couples spend choosing a wedding cake that will appeal to the eyes and sense of taste for such a brief moment in time while failing to provide anything of lasting value to the body, the mind, and most importantly the soul.
We must properly prepare for the soul's most important wedding of all, for each one's wedding to and union with Christ first and foremost, and approach the Divine Bridegroom of Every Soul with proper disposition as Almighty God wills; with a spirit of adoration, with a heart, mind, and soul full of gladness and gratitude; humbly, gently, and reverently receiving Him with purity of intention and while giving one's self to Him as God alone is worshiped and adored.
"He who is unable to spend a long time together in prayer, should often lift up his mind to God by short prayers." ~ Saint Philip Neri
As in all things, may Almighty God's most perfect will be done His way, which is always the right way, in imitation of and in union with Christ through the maternal intercession of His Immaculate Mother.
"Never give up prayer, and should you find dryness and difficulty, persevere in it for this very reason: God often desires to see what love your soul has, and love is not tried by ease and satisfaction." ~ Saint John of the Cross +
DURING THE MARIAN PRAYERS FOLLOWING THE CONCLUSION OF THE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS
"We must often remember what Christ said, that not he who begins, but he that perseveres to the end, shall be saved." ~ Saint Philip Neri
Our Blessed Mother helps us and she is the God-given help that we need.
“FIAT!”
The Immaculate Mother of the Divine Bridegroom of every soul is willing to do all she can to help not only with the proper celebration of each wedding, but also with each one’s life-long spending of one’s self in imitation of and in union with Her Divine Son.
All we have to do is be willing, in imitation of and in union with Her.
"My children, if you desire perseverance, be devout to our Blessed Lady." ~ Saint Philip Neri
CHAPTER 9
SACRIFICIAL HUMILITY
“VOTUM”
“Let us believe, and believe firmly
in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist!
Jesus Christ is there!
When we enter a church,
a feeling of respect should come upon us,
a respect of faith and love on meeting Jesus Christ in person;
for it is indeed He Whom we are meeting.”
~ Saint Peter Julian Eymard
CHAPTER 9
SACRIFICIAL HUMILITY
“VOTUM”
Following Christ's example, a Christian must seek only the glory of God. He must desire no other glory save that of being a child of God, a brother of Jesus Christ, and a member of His Mystical Body - a singular glory, indeed!" ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 181
THE NIGHT BEFORE
Our Lord and Redeemer Jesus Christ reveals that in the morning, He will offer your love for Him to Almighty God our Father during the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin.
What wonders!
THE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS ON THIS MORNING SUDDENLY BEGINS WITH CHRIST'S AGONY IN THE GARDEN
Just imagine the humility He manifested while there.
You join the Divine Bridegroom of every soul during this day's offering of one's self to God the Father in union with Jesus, the bloody sweat forming the wedding veil of self-sacrifice and of reparation as it pours down the middle of your back.
MODERN BRIDES WEAR COSTLY VEILS OF NO VALUE FOR THEIR WORLDLY WEDDINGS
So few humbly veil before God's majesty inside of His House, because what matters most to the world and the worldly is closely associated with falsehoods, facades, and personal gain.
“We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.” ~ Kurt Vonnegut
SACRIFICIAL HUMILITY: RENOUNCING EVERYTHING THAT IS OUTSIDE OF GOD’S WILL AND THAT DOES NOT LEAD TO HIS GREATER HONOR AND GLORY
"We must be on our guard against that tendency of pride which inclines us to seek a little satisfaction, praise, and personal glory even in our most spiritual actions. If we seek glory for ourselves, though it be only in insignificant matters, this glory is of no value; it elevates us in the eyes of men, but lowers us in God's eyes; it lessens and may even endanger our glory as children of God." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 181
HUMILITY POURS FROM THE WOUNDS IN THE TRANSPIERCED SACRED HANDS OF JESUS CRUCIFIED ON THE CROSS AT HIS HIGH ALTAR ON MOUNT CALVARY
"Seeking human glory and taking pleasure in it hinder and blind us on our way to perfection." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," p. 181
Christ's Precious Blood pours down in two streams, one from His left Sacred Hand and one from His right; contained within these two streams is His humility and we are to emulate His example.
Then, within our Lord’s Precious Blood pouring in two streams, one from each of His Sacred Hands nailed to the Cross for our sake, are the themes of the Tridentine documentary's chapters to date.
They are manifested one after another, all beginning with the word sacrificial: sacrificial sacrament, sacrificial selflessness, and sacrificial charity, love, silence, reverence, prayer, gentleness, humility, obedience, contrition, reparation, adoration, reciprocity, unity, gratitude, recollection, apostolate...
"Show me your hands. Do they have scars from giving? Show me your feet. Are they wounded in service? Show me your heart. Have you left a place for Divine love?" ~ Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
HOLY COMMUNION
It is God's will that the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament be received by all members of the human race, that He be received by those properly disposed to do so humbly and with purity of intention, and that things be done by us in their proper order as determined by Almighty God for His greater honor and glory first and foremost and then for the sake of all including one’s own precious, priceless, and immortal soul.
There is the very tender contemplation of all that God is during the sacred time while unified with the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, and there is inspiration from On High to treat the Divine Bridegroom of every soul reverently, kindly, and exquisitely gently.
Certainly this is how the Divine Gentleman of every soul treats us and has treated you, particularly this unfathomable and unfathomably penitential year.
"We are not saints yet, but we, too, should beware. Uprightness and virtue do have their rewards, in self-respect and in respect from others, and it is easy to find ourselves aiming for the result rather than the cause. Let us aim for joy, rather than respectability. Let us make fools of ourselves from time to time, and thus see ourselves, for a moment, as the all-wise God sees us." ~ Saint Philip Neri
JESUS, WHO SOUGHT NO PERSONAL SATISFACTION DURING HIS LIFE, SOUGHT ONLY TO ACCOMPLISH THE MOST PERFECT WILL OF ALMIGHTY GOD THE FATHER
We are to emulate the qualities of Jesus' mind and also those of His character.
"Only profound humility will enable us to overcome the allurements of pride, to silence the interior voices of self-esteem and vain complacency in order to seek always and in everything the glory of God." ~ Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen, O.C.D., "Divine Intimacy," pp. 181- 182

CHAPTER 10
SACRIFICIAL GENTLENESS
“THE GREATEST LOVE STORY OF ALL TIME”
Love story, upon love story, upon love story, upon love story continue to pour forth from the greatest love story of all time, through Jesus Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul.

PRIOR TO THE START OF THE CELEBRATION OF THE TRADITIONAL TRIDENTINE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS IN LATIN
"The past is no longer yours; the future is not yet in your power. You have only the present wherein to do good.” ~ Saint Alphonsus Liguori
What bride invites no one to her wedding, while at the same time inviting everyone at the request of the King of All Kings, our Divine Redeemer and the Divine Bridegroom every soul?
SACRIFICIAL GENTLENESS, THE CHAPTER THAT HAS COST THE MOST OF THEM ALL
“Let us therefore without ceasing hold fast by our hope and by the earnest of our righteousness, which is Jesus Christ who took up our sins in His own Body upon the tree, who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth, but for our sakes He endured all things, that we might live in Him.
“Let us therefore become imitators of His endurance; and if we should suffer for His name’s sake, let us glorify Him. For He gave this example to us in His own person, and we believed this.” ~ Saint Polycarp of Smyrna
PRIOR TO THE START OF THE QUIET, ELEGANT, AND REVERENT TRADITIONAL TRIDENTINE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS CELEBRATED IN LATIN
“He who can preserve gentleness amid pains, and peace amid worry multitude of affairs, is almost perfect.” ~ Saint Francis de Sales
Our Triune God suddenly engages His beloved in expressive silence at the intimate quarters within the heart, His and one’s own, and so the daily offering of the Prayers of Reparation to the Holy Face of Jesus must wait a while.
This summons indicates that something else very beautiful is coming...
LEARNING TO BE GENTLE IN IMITATION OF AND IN UNION WITH CHRIST COMES THROUGH THE CRUCIFIXION OF I AM'S WORK OF REPARATION TO THE HOLY FACE OF JESUS IN MODERN TIMES
The writing of this documentary has endured its own crucifixion, its own war, as did you during this unprecedented and unanticipated most severely penitential year of them all.
"Suffering is a great grace; through suffering the soul becomes like the Savior. In suffering love becomes crystallized; the greater the suffering, the purer the love.” ~ Saint Faustina
YOUR HEART, REPRESENTING THE WORK OF REPARATION TO THE HOLY FACE OF JESUS AND ITS APOSTOLIC MISSION IN MODERN TIMES, IS OPEN WIDE AND ACTING LIKE A CHANNEL AS GOD'S GRACES POUR FORTH FOR THE SAKE OF THE WHOLE WORLD
“It is better to make penitents by gentleness than to make hypocrites by severity” ~ Saint Francis de Sales
Despite the unfathomably brutal suffering this year there is, thanks be to God, peace and joy in church, at work, at home, and within the heart.
Hurting, but happy.
However,
one cannot possibly be concerned and satisfied with one's self and
one's happiness; one must be concerned for the welfare, particularly
with the eternal welfare, of all others, in imitation of and in union
with Christ
the Divine King of Reparation.
GRACE HIDES RICHES WITHIN ITSELF
First and foremost, we must be concerned with God, His rights, our responsibilities with regards to His Divine Economy of Salvation, the fulfillment of His will His way - which is always the right way - and His greater honor and glory.
Peace and joy come from God, and we must go to God to acquire and to receive them.
“If only mortals would learn how great it is to possess Divine grace, how beautiful, how noble, how precious. How many riches it hides within itself, how many joys and delights!
“No one would complain about his cross or about troubles that may happen to him, if he would come to know the scales on which they are weighed when they are distributed to men.” ~ Saint Rose of Lima
JESUS COMES TO CELEBRATE THE TRADITIONAL TRIDENTINE HOLY SACRIFICE OF THE MASS WITH GENTLENESS AND COMPASSION, AS ONE WITH THE CELEBRANT, AND THIS IS MANIFESTED AS THE SAME GENTLENESS WITH WHICH HE CARED FOR YOU AS ONE WITH THE CHIROPRACTIC DOCTOR OF HIS CHOOSING AT HIS CLINIC THIS INCREDIBLE YEAR
While at the clinic having your health restored there for a second time, beginning on the Feast of Saint Joseph in March 2024 and while suffering much more acutely and far more brutally than the first time a decade prior, many astonishing things took place in the supernatural.
The One overseeing it all is Jesus the Divine Bridegroom of every soul, Jesus our Divine Redeemer, Divine Physician, Divine Shepherd, Divine Teacher, and Divine Restorer.
Jesus the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity had the second son chiropractic doctor instrument of His choosing suddenly and without warning deliver this documentary on the 2024 Feast of St. Joseph, while restoring the health of the messenger and with supernatural kindness, compassion, patience, proper caring, and unfathomable gentleness that were truly from heaven.
What happened at that clinic was astounding, and the events of the prior nine months generated three hundred pages of amazing teaching material.
No wonder there was so much spiritual warfare while waiting there; no wonder the forces of darkness severely beat you up mentally so many times after leaving there; no wonder they begged you so many times to never go back there.
What wonders take place when we are willing to listen to God and to do as He says.
AS ONE WITH CHRIST CRUCIFIED AT HOME, AT THE CHIROPRACTIC CLINIC WHILE AT WORK, AND THEN IN CHURCH
This tri-location suffering was at its absolute worst, and by far one time in particular in 2024, all of a sudden while at the chiropractor's clinic for an adjustment.
Jesus had His instrument, the chiropractor who had rescued you twice, be the one to see this apostolic work in a way that no one else has: his patient as One with Christ crucified there on the table as the doctor properly cared for your health as One with Christ beside the Cross and right by the side of His Immaculate Mother.
Our Lord then said that the brutal suffering being alleviated by that doctor was intended for him, the one who was helping with the healing.
Note that while being treated by him the first time (some time between 2012 but before 2017, it had been revealed to you that our Lord would reveal this suffering from His Sacred Passion to this doctor through you, but it had not been revealed when. Then, in 2024 this took place.
WHAT OUR LORD SAID ABOUT THAT MOST SACRIFICIALLY PAINFUL MOMENT
Jesus suddenly said something about that one moment late one evening at the end of that incredible year 2024, after having returned home from work helping properly care for those in need of compassion.
"See how much I suffered for you alone, while collectively suffering for everyone."
Jesus revealed the following: “See how you suffer for love of Me personally, while suffering for all souls through all time.
As it turned out, the brutally epic, unfathomably costly, eternally valuable, and profoundly life-changing reparative suffering was the answer to many prayers in the past, for through it were delivered so many astounding, exquisitely beautiful, and truly meaningful moments; Divine supernatural graces; and personal lessons also meant for every soul.
All of it led to a relationship with Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul that is ever-deeper, richer, and has led to so much true joy.
THE CONSECRATION IS OFFERED BY OUR LORD AS ONE WITH HIS TRADITIONAL CATHOLIC PRIEST IN THE SAME MANNER, WITH HIS SACRED HEART A WIDE-OPEN CHANNEL OF DIVINE SUPERNATURAL SACRAMENTAL GRACES AND AS ONE WITH YOUR HEART IN THE SAME MANNER, AND AS ONE ALSO WITH THIS APOSTOLIC MISSION (THE WORK OF REPARATION TO HIS HOLY FACE)
Remember, the Work of Reparation to the Holy Face of Jesus is the offering to Almighty God of the reparation He wills be made by each one throughout one’s lifespan and moment-by-moment, guided by the Holy Ghost, in imitation of and in union with Christ through the Devotion to His Holy Face.
The Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus is three Christocentric-Marian devotions-in-one: to His Holy Face, Sacred Heart, and Divine Mercy.
Everyone has a God-given Holy Apostolate of Reparation.
THE PATER NOSTER (LORD'S PRAYER) IS OFFERED BY AND THROUGH JESUS, VERY QUIETLY AND UNFATHOMABLY GENTLY, TO ALMIGHTY GOD AS ONE WITH HIS CELEBRANT
"Only strong people can be gentle, because gentleness restrains strength by love." ~ Father John A. Hardon, S.J., "Gentleness"
THE FINAL ELEVATION
Love, compassion, mercy, honesty, integrity, gentleness, and so much more pour forth from the Real Presence of Jesus in the small, round, white Consecrated Sacred Host being elevated by the celebrant just prior to Holy Communion.
They land in the ciborium before all who are kneeling at the Communion rail to gently and reverently receive Him there on Mount Calvary.
