The Shock from Archbishop Eamon Martin


By now, most of you would have read the Tablet article on Archbishop Eamon Martin's comments on pro-abortion politicians. See my post below for an excellent link on this.

I remind people that when the wars against the Israelites in happened in the Books of Joshua and Maccabees, the first response of the leaders was a call to repentance for the whole People of God.

Joshua and the Maccabees knew that the cause of the wars was the evil of the Israelites, primarily idolatry. Only when the People under their leaders repented did victory occur. Only when the entire nation humbled themselves and were obedient to God did God aid the armies of Israel.

God sent supernatural powers, great angelic warriors, to help fight the enemies of the Jews. But, He will not help us unless our Church leaders repent of supporting in anyway abortion and ssm legislation.

I am waiting for clarification from Ireland. I am in Ireland for many more weeks. If this Archbishop and others do not change the heinous support of abortion, Ireland will go the way of all nations who disobeyed God.

This is another sign of the decadence of the Church here, not in individuals here and there, not in some good and clear priests, but in the hierarchy.

God will not help Ireland until Ireland repents.

The problem is that the Archbishop has defined the problem in terms of politics instead of morality.

Supporting aborting babies is not merely a political stance, but a SIN. That idea is missing in the Archbishop's statement.

Of what is he afraid? Conflict? Joshua and the Maccabees plunged into conflict as they had to respond to the enemies who would defile the People of God and the Temple.

We have Christ in our midst. How can we do less?
