Marian Website

Well it's been a while since i last blogged but things like this happen. well i found an excellent Marian Site which i have recently been revisiting. Its called Mother of All Peoples and it examins many beliefs about the virgin mary that are held to be true and is absolute truth. While my relationship with mary is excellent and there is no doubt in my mind that she loves me with the very love of god and her maternal love, i decided that maybe you maybe in need of some help? i dont know. but its really really a great site. very good for the intellectuals out there.

I like one particular article - Marian Coredemption in the Light of Saint Therese of Lisieux and the reason being that instead of following the path of learning by reading doctrine, theological books, arguments excetera, it talks about the knowledge of god by experience. hence the reason why i prefer private revelation and writings from the mystic saints. like Therese of Lisieux. Fr. François-Marie Léthel, O.C.D is right to call them authentic "theologians," that is to say "knowers (connaisseurs) of God." check it out.

Missionary Experience

for this month of august i have not been keepin an updated blog because i am venturing on my first missionary experience in my life. i must confess that i am having a good time seeking out people in the name of our lord. I also learnt alot about myself and some very cool people who i know loves god above all else. The main thing that i must say that strikes me the most is that it is important not to judge people when on mission. I also learn how much each person is valued in the eyes of god. right now i swear i feel like an apostle or a true missionary. there has been so many experiences that have occured that i will remember for the rest of my life.

one such case is with a boy who i coaxed into coming into church named Hjaim(pronounced Hakim). this such case i will remember because of the divine providence at work. everything just fitted in to play, it was like i was meant to meet him and speak with him. what makes him so special is that it so happened that he never went to church in his whole life! he knows about god BUT! when i came up to his house, i came really looking for his friend Terri. well i must say that ortorie is an area that is known for its drugs and lack of god in the residents' lives. I visited terri's how to call him to come to church. it was then that i met Hjaim and Maria. and i brought them back to church.

to hear his story is truely said and i have a deep sympathy for him because he has never been loved, is rejected and there is a deep deep longing for fulfillment. he has been in experiences in his past that is not nice to the god fearing man and i realize now why god what him to come to know him and love him in church.

well in order to get him to come i told him that all he has to say is just one hour. one of our session was a session called original pain therapy dealing with the inner child in you and the pains which we carry, dealing with its origins and stuff. he was very hesitant but he came none the less though we at first sat outside, and ten minutes after we sat inside the little room behind the church in the back.

now imagine a person so totally void of love that they couldnt even imagine good thoughts or playing for the sake of having good fun. so much emptyness and longingness. he couldnt even see a doll symbol as the child in you as himself. My heart was filled with compassion and love for this boy only 16. eventually in the same night we got him to enter into the church through a 2hr long counselling. My divine providence again, the we the church was celebrating the feast of the Assumption, and during the night we were having the 20 decade rosary said with the image of Maria Rosa Mystica. From that night on till this present day he is in church. what really keeps him there really is the presence of the young missionaries (all of them), and expecially the presence of the males enjoying themselves in the lord's presence and doing his work.

so here ends my missionary experience so far. I dont have access to the internet so i dont know when again i will be online to update my blog. Salus Credentium. God Bless you.

Holy Family Message To Visionary

Hello everyone. Today i was checking the website of my favourite visionary and i decided that i wanted to post a message that i think people should read. I strongly believe that she is credible and she definitely doesn't preach heresy. Her link is in my links section. Here is the message.

22nd May, 2006

This morning, during prayers, I had a vision of the Holy Family of Nazareth.
The Blessed Mother with Baby Jesus in Her arms and St. Joseph. Jesus was clothed in a blue nightgown.

Holy Mary placed Jesus in my arms and said, “We come to you as a Holy Family because you honour us every day so beautifully in your prayers.” The little Infant Jesus was so happy, smiling. I kept hugging Him and He put His little arm around my neck. I had such a joyful and happy feeling.

Blessed Mother then spoke, “We come to you to tell you that people are sinking deeper and deeper into an abyss of sin. No one seems to care much to change. This offends us very much. The way the world leads into terrible destruction.”

As She was speaking St Joseph stood near Her, looking very sad and serious.
Holy Mary said, “I try My best. I was sent into the world to tell people to repent and convert and come back to God, but so little I have achieved. No one seems to take notice of this or to understand that I want good for My children to come closer to My Son. After all it is for their own good and salvation to be saved.”

St Joseph spoke to me, “How many centuries and years have passed by since my chaste and pure spouse was sent to all parts of the world to tell people to convert. She taught them to pray, to convert and to find their way back to God. She led them to church to listen to the word of God, but so little She achieved. People don't want to listen and to change. They like to have a good and comfortable life. Where would that lead you but to self-destruction and a big chastisement which is above you all. “

Most Holy Family of Nazareth, help us to be with you always.
Never lose faith and hope.


So let us honour the holy family and pray to them often for help in our necessaties. They are there to help us to live holy lives and to serve and love god more perfectly. we all have a share in the love and labour of god; therefore they can dispense grace too!

My favourite Sacred Heart Picture

I Found this picture on the internet-like all my other pictures-some months ago, and I have decided that today being the Feastday of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, I would Share it with the faithful. I regularly use it as my wallpaper. Just venerating this picture or just staring at it unites me with the divine love and mercy....try it! (looks best with a black desktop background colour.)

Salus Credentium!

consecration to mary

For the past few weeks I have joyfully been praising and living in the sacred hearts of jesus and mary. I have been witnessing to the love and compassion which is to be found in these two hearts, especially in the immaculate heart of mary our mother. how you say? by totally consecrating myself, offering my life, joys, suffering and my own will for the accomplishing of our mother's will for our lives- namely, to mould us, to be perfect and worthy in the sight of god.

It is an indescribeable feeling of motherly love which is to be experienced in this heart of mary. Knowing that it was Jesus who gave us his own mother, who he placed all his trust and hope and love in on earth, that he himself would give us this same mother to be our mother. For who knows the Heart of Jesus better than the Heart of Mary. As scripture says "she pondered all these things in her heart."

I choose to follow mary more deeply, only to more perfectly follow christ! She who exclaimed "I am the handmaid of the lord, be it done unto me according to thy word" will surely form me to exclaim that same profession of faith in god our father. Mary our mother' every thought is bent on pleasing god! she then being the most perfect of all creatures and queen of heaven wants to accomplish the work of god, jesus her son in our lives and in the world. This is why jesus, in his final moments of life on earth, in the climax of his suffering, vouchsafe to give us his own mother to be mother of all peoples so that she can achieve and perfect in us to divine will of god. So that Mary our mother, Mother of the Church, May teach and prune us. Mary is a mother in the FULLEST SENSE of the word!

So what have influenced me to such devotion and love of virgin mary? These books. I highly recommend them. Firstly, It was 'The Dolorous Passion Of Our Lord Jesus Christ', then 'To The Priests, Our Lady's Beloved Sons', and Finally, the book i am now reading together with the one i just stated, 'The Mystical City Of God' from the second to last book, I would like to quote something i find so profound that i think every christian, furthermore every catholic should know and praise god. For what a most Loving mother we have in heaven.

From to the priest our lady's Beloved son's. these are revelations to Fr. Stefano Gobbi from the Virgin mary -

I WANT TO SAVE THEM

"You are now having a time of quiet and i invite you to enter into the intimacy of my immaculate heart to see what an abyss of love and of sorrow it contains. my heart is the heart of a mother, a real living heart of a mother who is real and living for all her children.

All men redeemed by my son are also my children; they are my children in the fullest sense of the word. even those who are far away, even the sinners, even the atheists, even those who reject god,those who fight against him and hate him: they are all my children. And i am a mother to them. for many of them i am the only mother they have, the only person who is taking care of them, who truly loves them. and so my heart is continually consumed with sorrow and with a greater love for these children of mine. I want to help them, i want to save them because i am their mother. Because of this i suffer for them, I suffer for their sins, I suffer because they are so far from god, I suffer because they do wrong, I suffer because of all the harm they are doing to themselves.

but how to help them? how to save them? I have need of much preayer, i have need of much suffering. only though the prayer and the suffering of my other good and generous children, will i be able to save these children of mine. And so there is then the movement of my priests. it is desired by me to make reparation for the immense harm caused in souls by atheism, to restore in so many desecrated hearts the image of god, the merciful coutenance of my son jesus."

Da Vinci Code - False

In defence of the catholic church on the subject of the Da Vinci Code and its horrendous errors I offer this link

For those of you that won't read all, it just goes not to prove that this move is PURELY FICTION and Anti-Christian, Anti-Catholic. "These titles represent works of New Age speculation that run counter to established history, focus on alleged secret societies and conspiracy theories, attempt to reinterpret the Christian faith, and are imbued with radical feminist agendas. Historians and religious scholars do not take these works seriously."

Can you imagine that Dan Brown's Sources were accused of fraud and embezzlement. They were New Age Followers following new age spirituality! (Anti-Christ, Anti-Christian) I have never read nor seen the movie and i dont intend too for the sake of jesus's holiness. some lies which people believe are like that regarding the priory of sion. this was founded in 1956 in france and was named after the mountain which it was on "Col du Mont Sion". it had nothing to do with the crusades. His sources are well known to be fraudulent works. Dont you see that his words try to undermine the authenticity of the bible, the word of god? that is exactly the plan of the devil!

It is just so much non-sense that is worth nothing not knowing. fiction. In my eyes dan brown wants to make some money and in what better way than to feed "the public's taste for conspiracy and anti-catholic passions" and in what better way than to attack the catholic church who is always protrayed in the bias media as evil and unrealistic. If you only knew the good things that the media is purposely leaving out that the catholic church is doing and living. It is truly a great act of the devil.

Never the less no matter what the devil does, and how much people he would fool through this movie. "The gates of Hell Shall not prevail" against the Church (the bride of christ) that is historically recorded that Saint Peter the Apostle of Jesus Founded. And to no other church is god more present than in the Catholic Church. Everything else is a lie and dont you dare believe it! Do your research!

If people say the catholic church do so and so, find out if it is true from a catholic source and the reason for it.

the Source i use often is a catholic encyclopedia that is much older than nearly all the encyclopedias around copyright 1910. Its been around for a very long time. newadvent.org

'Behold The Man'

When I saw this picture, I was ashamed and uncomfortable. How could people portray jesus in such a rude manner! The first time I saw this picture was on a vocations retreat in point fortin, from a video on the theology of the body lectured by christopher west. when I watched this video, I started to see this picture in a different light. not through the light of this sex crazy world but in the light of the person of christ, more specifically, his masculinity.

This picture is exactly what is needed to reawaken that lost sense of manhood, correct that false definition of man and his role, and see jesus and the unblemished model of man. these days people say all sorts of things about jesus, they even paint him as a woman, but this picture is truly beautiful and true! Have you ever wondered why god created both man and woman and not just man? or why did god had to become a man rather than a woman to redeem us?

This video by christopher west answers all of these questions, and offers us something to think about. it is particularly what i like to call a man's movie, and i highly recommend it.

What touched me deeply is how much we are truly in the image and likeness of our god! i just love my manhood and myself because of the love jesus has shown us. It also affect a deep love for the virgin mary and her work in the redemptive plan of god for mankind. for those of us that are insecure and uncertain in their masculinity as myself, I again recommend this video. It helped me and i know it would help you.

I now see jesus to be my model for a man and masculinity. I say that John Paul II truly understood the meaning of this theology of the body, and what st. Augustine would call, 'the Whole Christ' or the scriptures where it is written 'Behold the Man'

warnings from god.

In wake of recent events such as the various earthquakes in the pacific region, i again plead for people to take seriously these warning from the not yet approved catholic visionary in Sydney Australia. she is awaiting the bishop's letter, i dont know if she got is already but i dont want to wait until. i find her genuine as far as my faith and knowledge of god and the church goes, and that she is genuine to believe. her messages from god has helped me personally to grow in the faith and love of god, the church with the communion of saints. her messages have also paralleled other messages from various approved apparations and those yet to be approved and under scrutiny.

Even if youre not catholic and decided to drop by, take a look and at least say a prayer for yourself and someone you love even if you dont believe in god, religion or anything at all. please dont just say yea right sucker or narrow minded kid to believe in god! if you do pray, and call god by no name other than Father, then you wont have anything to lose. just do it for heaven's sake! and help yourself and those in need. may God Bless you. Salus Credentium!

By the way, this blog is also my blog. I just use Salus Credentium more frequently. and the link to the visionary's website is in the links column.

school

these days i have not been faithful to this blogging thing because it is just too much work to do. imagine that these lecturers of mine give us 6 projects. out of those 6 four was very time consuming. boy. is pressure yes. but for the past two days i on a break. need time for myself. you see tomorrow and the weekend. is real work. but the strange this is that i am not worried. i think is because i believe in god and that i would make it though the work. after all i have been making it through for the past few days. why not now? but sometimes i doubt the work of god....but then i tell myself. my god is bigger than that. not saying that i must wait till last minute to do my work but trust in god. the bottom line.

your friends and yourself

today i was supposed to do some school work but i didnt. instead i played the fool. i realize that i need to prioritize things in my life because it would not be good for me if i continue living this way. i just came back from a party, what we in trinidad and tobago would call a 'lime' with some friend that are dear to me. but do you ever had the feeling like..ok, these people are my friends but they dont appriciate me. and with this feeling now, you will always not be your 'comfortable' or 'rest easy self.' ....i have come to realize that to love people in the true light of a christian, you just have to bear hurts. i have two such friends and i dont like when every time they would always like to have the 'last say' or be the ones to set the standards. well im like that in a sense. but i guess the difference is that i hold back and take silently the unwilling scorns or the unnoticable damage that friends can cause with an unconscience word or action to another.

I have 3 friends that i would willingly die for and am totally comfortable being around. i dont have the fear of watching over my back or tracing my steps. out of those three i know 1 will do anything in his power to help me out and will put his head on a block for me as well. as for the other too, they may have to think about it.

the thought that engulfs my mind day and night is how am i to be a man? and not just a man but a man of god? i mean, there is almost no good model of a man i can say i can strive to be like other than those of the past like jesus and st. francis or so. but for those that are alive in this world, it is very difficult to find a model among them. and with this question in my mind day and night, it is beginning to take a toll, in such a degree that i dont know if i am acting normal or i am afraid of betraying my masculinity. i guess these are questions we men must all try to answer in this life.

how ignorant am i

today i just realized how internet illiterate i was. i though i knew enough but there is more to be learned. thank good for sites like howstuffworks.com, to help ppl like me. sometimes i fell real embarrassed because i think that i should have know what i didn't know example how to deal with templates and getting screenshots. come on?, i think people my age know how to customize thier webpages...but i think time will teach me, thats just the cons i would say of living in a third world country and not being to literate about software and the internet....if you got any ideas or any great sites, leave a comment.

May - the month of Mary, Five First Saturdays Devotion

For all who don't know, May is the month of Mary, meaning that in gratitude for the role the Virgin Mary played in the salvation of mankind, we dedicate this month to honour her. there are many devouting to her asking for help from her as like a son asking a mother for help, making reparation for the offences against her immaculate heart and thanksgiving to her for above mentioned....

I am quite happy that i remembered this yesterday, and today i decided that i would do the first five saturdays devoution to her. Since Mid-April I have been burdened by school work. honestly speaking, I would rather have exams than projects.....thats because its like I never leave school. This has been going on for quite some time. But as my blog name suggest there is always Salus Credentium (Salvation of Believers). I am hoping that because of this month of May, stress will be minimal with this school work.....thank god this is my last semester...and what a happy end it would be.

If you are Catholic Christain like me or Eastern Orthodox Christian, don't be surprised if you get into alot of arguments over Mary our Mother this month....after all, the devil is a busy man.....and to honour mary is to call down the justice of god towards the devil and evil doers. As genesis says...."I will put ememity between your seed and her seed, She shall crush your head, and you shall bruise her heel!" - genesis 3:15 ..... I know some bible say He and it as well, but as Saint Jerome clarifies this in the early christian centries. the MORE correct interpretation is She and not He. See (best sites in order) here, here or here

My Feast Of Divine Mercy

Mercy Sunday is a day that I will always observe. It is the day that Jesus Christ, through his divine mercy, opens the gates of heaven to all those who would on this day, adore and implore his divine mercy. Yesterday was that great feast day and I spent the day in feverent prayer, veneration of the divine mercy picture, thanksgiving to god, imploring his mercy for myself and for others. I went to mass thrice and prayed for so many people and so many things that I don't know if I left out anything still to be prayed for. I hope that people benefited from this day of grace and mercy abounding.


The feast was instituted by Saint Faustina, who through the request of our lord, established the feast for all mankind for benefit. Not just Roman Catholics. What intensified the experience for me even more was I was on a caramelite retreat in the mountains in a Benedictine monastery in my country. It has a fantatic view of the towns below and forest. And even more it is extremely quiet. What helped me the most was meditating on the passion of our lord to get deeper into the mystery of god's act of divine mercy. What I used was the diary of St. Faustina and I read from the book the Dolorous Passion Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, written by another saint.

This day is really for sinners and I am a big one of those. Trust me. This is what Jesus promised- "let the greatest sinners place their trust in my mercy. They have the right before others to trust in the abyss of my mercy. My daughter, write about my mercy towards tormented souls. souls that make an appeal to my mercy delight me. To such souls I grant even more graces than they ask. I cannot punish even the greatest sinner if he makes an appeal to my compassion, but on the contrary,I justify him in my unfathomable and inscrutable mercy. Write: before I come as a just judge, I first open wide the door of my mercy. He who refuses to pass through the door of my mercy must pass through the door of my justice." this is why I needed to recognize this day.

As I close let me just type out the promise of Jesus Christ to those who adore his mercy on the feast of divine mercy from the diary of blessed Faustina.

"My daughter, tell the whole world about my inconceivable mercy. I desire that the feast of mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of my tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of my mercy. The soul that will go to confession and receive holy communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. On that day all the divine floodgates through which grace flow are opened. Let no soul fear to draw near to me, even though its sins be as scarlet. My mercy is so great that no mind, be it of man or angel, will be able to fathom it throughout all eternity. Every thing that exists has come forth from the very depths of my most tender mercy. Every soul in relation to me will contemplate my love and mercy throughout eternity. The feast of mercy emerged from my very depths of tenderness. It is my desire that it be solemnly celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter. Mankind will not have peace until it turns to the fount of my mercy."

So mark that date on your calendar, phone, email address etc. to remember and don't forget to say thankyou for mercy shown.

Simplicity and Truth

What really matters in life is really those things that are simple and whose contribution would be seen as insignificant. Everyday people say they are waiting for something big to happen and usually that normally doesn't happen. The further irony is that when it does happen they are not totally happy. I think that inorder for people to be happy, they must start taking the advice of elders. Those elders who are respectable and righteous in the eyes of god and society when they say being rich doesn't mean being happy, or having much doesn't mean happiness. A past living example of this would be the life of Mother Theresa and St. Therese of Lisieux. Have you ever read their autobiographies? Awesome!

I have come to learn that the teachings of the past are most needed in today's self-centered worldly society; where relativism abounds and is constantly leading persons into the darkness. Hiding truth from falsehood. Imagine that today's global culture even rejects the existence of god? I personally cannot see how agnostics and all other persons in that category can reconcile their opinion of truth from what IS true. It seems that these days people are always trying to change the truth, twist it up, and reinvent it. For what purpose? Namely to justify a wrong by denying faith a voice, and using logic and reasoning soley to come to absurd conclusions. And for pride and recognization

An example of this would be is there a soul? Logically and reasonably in the eyes of faith (and sometimes without faith) there is such a thing. But in the eyes of logical alone, seeing that there is no material proof of its existence, people say there is no such a thing.

So now what are we to believe? Deny our own experiences (which is not material proof) of the soul and believe by reason alone? Or instead take into mind our own experiences and religious truths (faith) in assesting what is truth from what is false. Then here we come to another problem. Would secular society accept that there is a god? Of course not so that society would always leave out religious truths in detemining truth, just not to cause any kind of confusion among worldly friends.

I have come to test (through experiences) the authenicity of religious truths about god, man and other thinks like morals, and have also come to the conclusion that they are always right and they should be followed and listened to; but today's society teaches that to be obedient is to be a slave and to be conditioned to believe. But I say that a bad thing? Being a slave to wisdom and being conditioned to good things practices? To me those are the thins that brings joy to mind, body and soul. So in other words, its worth it.


Truth is this, to know god and Jesus Christ the one whom he has sent. This takes into account the testimony of faith and reasoning. One complements the other.
