Netanyahu, Khamenei | Great Rosary Campaign, Week 9

In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have. The Rosary is foremost among them.Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com.The Great Rosary Campaign is a yearlong mission for the conversion of cultural leaders.We will announce a weekly call to pray every Sunday for specific fallen-away Catholics and non-Catholics.THIS WEEK of the Great Rosary Campaign we are praying for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, and Ayatollah Khamenei of Iran.The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is attending a Daily Mass, and a Holy Hour.Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular:1. Keeping the Faith2. Moral renovation3. Conversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles.First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10).Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44).Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2).Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for.Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance.Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).Sign up to take part in the Great Rosary Campaign today: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com

#6 | The Foolishness of God: Many Christians Already Embrace the Antichrist Agenda

CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITIONThis is the first episode in our new series, "The Foolishness of God: The End Times." The term "foolishness of God" comes from St. Paul, who said "the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men" (1 Cor. 1:25). He was speaking about the Passion of Our Lord, which the Church teaches is a type of the end times Passion of the Church (see the Catholic Catechism, paragraphs 675-77).In this first introductory installment, we'll discuss the Antichrist Agenda as outlined by the famous 19th century protestant convert, St. John Henry Newman, and how most Christians have already accepted many parts of it.Support Eternal Christendom: https://eternalchristendom.com/become-a-patron/Connect with Joshua on social mediaX: https://twitter.com/JoshuaTCharlesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshuatcharles/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshuatcharles/EPISODE CHAPTERS00:00 - Intro01:34 - The End Times Passion of the Church05:55 - St. John Henry Newman on the Antichrist Agenda15:22 - ConclusionListen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/eternal-christendom-podcast/id1725000526Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3HoTTco6oJtApc21ggVevuOutro Music: “A Place in Heaven” by Thomas BergersenLicense Code: 9OTZEL9EAVMBUDMY

#5 | Setting the Record Straight: Reformation Era Pope Repents, and Warns of Luther's Errors

CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITIONThis is the first episode in our new series, "Setting the Record Straight: The Truth vs. Anti-Catholic Myths," in which we will refute various anti-Catholic myths, and share eye-opening accounts that paint an entirely different picture of the Catholic Church than we are often given.In this first installment, we cover a largely unknown story of a Pope who not only repented of the sins of priests and Popes at the very beginning of the protestant "reformation," but also provided a stunningly accurate and prophetic warning about where Luther's errors would lead. When I first heard this story as a protestant, I was shocked. I never knew a Catholic Pope, amidst the heat of the "reformation," had shown such transparent humility. It showed me a side of the Catholic Church I never knew, and was certainly never told about. In addition, the Pope's warnings about where Luther's principles would lead rang uncomfortably true with my experience as a protestant.This story will help refute two comment protestant assertions: that the Catholic Church was unrepentantly corrupt, and that Luther's principles were an attempt at "reform" rather than a revolution.Support Eternal Christendom: https://eternalchristendom.com/become-a-patron/Connect with Joshua on social mediaX: https://twitter.com/JoshuaTCharlesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshuatcharles/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshuatcharles/EPISODE CHAPTERS00:00 - Intro02:35 - Roadmap04:16 - Historical Context09:04 - The Pope Repents15:00 - The Pope Prophesies27:24 - ConclusionListen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/eternal-christendom-podcast/id1725000526Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3HoTTco6oJtApc21ggVevuOutro Music: “A Place in Heaven” by Thomas BergersenLicense Code: 9OTZEL9EAVMBUDMY
