Only Satan and never God is always the author of confusion. It is impossible for any non Catholic Church to be right because the existence of churches outside the Catholic represent confusion.<br />It is not surprising that there has never been any credible case of stigmata or Eucharistic miracle outside the Catholic Church. I have never done any exhaustive research on this but know because of my faith in God that there can’t be.<br />In terms of Marian apparition, the only credible case outside the Catholic Church happened in the Egyptian Coptic Church but quite remarkably, there was no direct message to anyone. <br />Of course, I’m not suggesting that anyone knows or can tell our Almighty God who to use, but simply that schisms and heresies are works of Satan. Non Catholic Churches are not God ordained churches.<br />However, God knows that there are many innocent souls who are in strange so-called churches for no fault of their own and will always look after them.<br />I also believe that if God chooses any non Catholic He will bring such a person to the Catholic Church just as He did with Saint Paul.<br />The case of Saint Paul in my view is a solid evidence that God will never choose anyone outside the Catholic to lead or be in a church opposed to the Catholic Church.<br /><br /><br />Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03488506002357897882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-51541774653592356972023-01-28T18:26:14.097-05:002023-01-28T18:26:14.097-05:00I remember hearing about a old woman in Montreal i...I remember hearing about a old woman in Montreal in the 80s that was said to have the stigmata but can't seem to find information on it.

Thank you for your ...Hi Anonymous (directly above):<br />Thank you for your comment and yes--I agree with everything that you said. They key point is that the Church does not take the gift of stigmata into account at all when a person is being considered for beatification/canonization. So, just because a person like St Padre Pio or St Gemma Galgani is canonized, it does not mean that the stigmata that they claimed to have was authentic. That's really the point I was trying to make in my original commentary.<br /><br />Thanks again for your comment, and may God bless you and your loved ones,<br />-Glenn Glenn Dallairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335880223972671663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-84650654382112601172022-04-27T15:38:56.262-04:002022-04-27T15:38:56.262-04:00Glenn Dallaire
Szanowny Glennie, napisałeś coś tak...Glenn Dallaire<br />Szanowny Glennie, napisałeś coś takiego: "Dzięki za komentarz. Bardzo ważne jest, aby zauważyć – jak wspomniałem w artykule – że Kościół NIE potwierdza istnienia stygmatów u osób, które decyduje się wznieść na ołtarze (beatyfikacja/kanonizacja), więc Kościół (a zatem ja) nie powiedziałbym z całą pewnością, że na przykład św. Ojciec Pio miał stygmaty, czy jakikolwiek inny święty. Tak więc nie twierdzę z całą pewnością, że KAŻDA Z przedstawionych tu osób miała stygmaty, a jedynie, że MYŚLALI, że je posiadali."<br /><br />Tak się zastanawiam czy wiesz co piszesz a jeśli wiesz to dlaczego piszesz coś co nie jest zgodne z prawdą.<br /><br />Kościół nie zaprzecza stygmatom osób które chce wynieść do chwały ołtarzy, jeśli dary te zostaną dobrze przebadane. <br />Tutaj kwestia jest inna i inaczeh trzeba rozpatrywać kwestię stygmatyków którzy są kandydatami na ołtarze. Chodzi zarem o to że Kościół wynosząc sługi boże do tego stanu nie może brać pod uwagę tego daru. Podstawą wynoszenia osób do grona świętych czy błogosławionych jest ich życie według woli Boga. To jest podstawą a nie znaki jakie ludzie otrzymują. Nie wszyscy przecież święci czy błogosławieni byli stygmatykami, nie każdy też święty miał dar uzdrawiania czy bilokacji lub inne. <br />Stygmaty są tylko znakiem łączności z Bogiem ale nie świadczą o tym że ktoś zostanie przez to świętym. <br /><br />Ale nie da się też ukryć, że wielu stygmatyków dostąpiło chwały ołtarzy, lecz nie dzięki samym znakom ale dzięki temu że przyjmowali wolę Chrystusa z pokorą i uniżeniem. <br /> zgrona tylu prawdziwych stygmatyków wielu jest jyż w gronie błogosławionych lub świętych,część czeka na procesy. Jest jakaś część stygmatyków z grona tych bardzo odległych czasów, której kult został uznany na podstawie cudów jakich dokonywały te osoby, ich działalności w służbie Bogu ale nie na podstawie procesów, których wtedy nie przeprowadzano tak jak to ma miejsce od iluś już lat - trudno mi to teraz spamiętać od kiedy te procesy są przeprowadzane. Ale to i tak nie ma znaczenia dla świętości tych osób, gdyż o świętości nie decyduje sam proces tylko Bóg po przez swoje działania wobec takich osób. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-62579481853729825932021-09-08T09:21:53.271-04:002021-09-08T09:21:53.271-04:00The concept of "Stigmata" is a pack of a...The concept of "Stigmata" is a pack of absolute garbage & lies. The Romans didn't ever crucify anyone by nailing through the palms of the hands & they surely didn't nail anyone through the tops of their feet over each other into the front of the permanently affixed upright beam. Basic human anatomy & the discovered skeletons of crucifixion victims prove without a shadow of a doubt that they were nailed through the top of each wrist & through the sides of the heels into either side of the permanently affixed upright post that the Romans used (meaning that Jesus never carried an entire cross, just the crossbeam that would be reused over & over again). There's documented, scientific proof of this, the only evidence regarding the nailing through the palms is every medical professional ridiculing the concept because the weight of the body would cause the nail to tear the flesh between the middle & ring finger. There is no way that the human body could remain nailed during crucifixion as catholics portray it, it's physically & anatomically impossible so if people are claiming that stigmata exists or that they have it they're either liars or it's a result of demonic deception. NO ONE WAS EVER NAILED THROUGH THE HANDS & THE TOP OF THE FEET TO BE EXECUTED BY CRUCIFIXION, EVER. Stigmata is either a hoax or a demonic deception. Ask the Holy Spirit for discernment.

Most all facts and information comes in subsequent centuries from various mystics, beginning probably with St Francis of Assisi.<br /><br />May God bless you and your loved ones,<br />Glenn Dallaire <br /><br />Glenn Dallairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335880223972671663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-77979530269768369542020-06-13T12:28:41.249-04:002020-06-13T12:28:41.249-04:00
Hi Anonymous (two posts above),
Concerning stigma...<br />Hi Anonymous (two posts above),<br />Concerning stigmata in the hands vs wrists, I actually address some of this in the article above this comments section. In summary we find mystics who have had the stigmata in both locations, though its been my contention that its more commonly manifested in the hands. <br /><br />In the visions of Maria Valtorta, Jesus wrists were first tied to the Cross with ropes to hold them in place, then nails were driven through the hands. This could possibly support the nail in the hands theory. I personally hold no position either way, though Christian tradition over the centuries also seems to support the hands theory. <br /><br />May God bless you and your loved ones,<br />Glenn DallaireGlenn Dallairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335880223972671663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-11081727629682617762020-06-13T08:14:18.631-04:002020-06-13T08:14:18.631-04:00Hi good morning

The best example I believe that was given to us from God's word is of course Jesus Christ. As I comprehend Christ life while he was here on earth we can see that he healed many, restored, delivered many, corrected and raised others from the dead. <br /><br /> However I guess why I'm so perplexed is that his sufferings are in know way a comparison of what stigmata is said to be. Christ lead many to the truth before his body was even physically wounded which indicates to me that the occurrence of wounds can't be implied of a miracle nor God's will for an individual to suffer the rest of there natural life.<br /><br /> For me the ultimate sacrifice cannot be mimicked or copied by none that come after. He suffered and paid a price so horrific to save us all before we even knew we were lost. His blood is a representation of the sins he bore that he never committed and the redemption that we now have. No matter what know one but Christ has that power to redeem nor can redeem us by blood, it has been already done thanks be to God!<br /><br /> I reflect and am reminded that Christ gave us overcoming power, authority through his name to do greater works, cast out demons, speak things as though they are. I don't disagree that most of he time suffering helps as individuals to grow and be strengthened and sometimes humbled. But that suffering still should reflect God's glory.<br /><br />John 14v12 says:<br />12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.<br /><br />3 John 2 <br />2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.<br /><br />Matthew 10:7-11 <br />7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.<br />8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.<br />9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,<br />10 Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.<br />11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.<br /><br />Thanks once again my brother for the time and effort you take to respond I hope I haven't caused a commotion just needed understanding and wanted you to see as well.

Most of us are called to the "ordinary way" of holiness. What is often discussed on this website are persons who are essentially "victim souls", that being persons who are specifically chosen by God to suffer for the conversion of souls--one does not choose to be a mystic, stigmatic or victim soul--its a specific calling from God, in the same way that the apostles did not choose for themselves to be apostles, for example.<br /><br />If you are interested, I think that this article explains the idea of "victim souls" pretty well: <a href="http://www.mysticsofthechurch.com/2013/12/the-battle-for-souls-mystic-saints-vs.html" rel="nofollow">"The battle for souls--the Victim Souls"</a><br /><br />May God bless you! -Glenn<br /> Glenn Dallairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335880223972671663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-8991809443123950582019-05-21T17:15:35.246-04:002019-05-21T17:15:35.246-04:00Thanks Glenn for responding I appreciate it I do h...Thanks Glenn for responding I appreciate it I do have a good understanding about how items can be prayed over and given to others that may need healing or struggling in some area of life. <br /><br />But what really confuses me is how Christ would get glory from individuals that would bleed from open wounds for years? How would stigmata prove that God had actually performed a miracle in the lives of stigmata victims?From all the accounts I have read and looking at numerous pictures most people looked oppressed, depressed or possessed with an entity that wasn't given by our Father and Lord Jesus Christ. <br /><br />I myself have encountered visions and dreams from the Lord but they were always to inform others, pray about what he showed me or apply what God said to my own life. From my personal relationship with God it seems that the attention is more focused on the creation then the creator. We are all yet merely vessels. <br /><br />In my experience I have prayed with many people that God led me too and whether it was something wrong,tormenting them or spirit that was oppressing them they were delivered and it didn't require me to bleed from any area of my body, just obedience and allowing the holy spirit to use me. By allowing God to use me brings Glory to God and adds souls to his kingdom!<br /><br /> Scripture is clear when it says <br /><br />2 Corinthians 2:11 King James Version (KJV)<br /><br />11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.<br /><br /><br />Just A Questionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00274394729061801400noreply@blogger.com
