0990332489_PT01Mandeville, LA – Today’s Pile of Prep: most of the stories and research used to put together the Mike Church Show on the Veritas Radio Network’s CRUSADE Channel. 2016 is here and WELCOME to the All-New, Mike Church Show on the CRUSADE Channel, listen LIVE for Free (don’t cost nuthin’).

Sapientia et Veritas – “First, says Hanby, the US Constitutional order presupposes the modern view of reality and nature. In that view of nature, there was no such thing as intrinsic order built into reality. There is no ultimate meaning to things beyond what we choose to impute to them. Freedom, then, becomes not, as in the classical and medieval world, about having and exercising the power to live out the good, but rather about acquiring and utilizing power to enforce one’s will. “The view of freedom that we have enshrined in our political order corresponds to our view of the natural order. They reinforce each other,” says Hanby. “In effect, the state leaves us free to transgress these limits.” “Possibilities are more beguiling than what’s actual,” says Myers. “That’s the modern mentality.” – Michael Hanby, Veritas et Sapientia

The Terms “Attrition”, “Cuts” and Most Glorious of All “Abolish”, Are Going To Washington With TrumpMirabile dictu! (speak of miracles). Waiting until it’s too late to throw hissy fits and sabotage the effort, President Trump surreptitiously lets it slip that Mordor on The Potomac River has a spending problem. Trump’s “Landing teams” are prepared to cut bureaus by 20% through attrition and real spending by 10%. Witness now, official Parasitistan spring into action to defend their ill-gotten gains, McMansions, hereditary handing of elite privilege to their heirs who have never earned it etc. Recall Kelly Vlahos exposé of the “Deep State” (audio of my interview here): “These neighborhoods, especially those north of Route 50, are cluttered now with condos, single family ramblers, bungalows, Cape Cods, and brick box homes selling for $900,000 or more depending on the upgrades inside and out. Interspersed, like golden cohorts in a mouthful of well-maintained but otherwise white teeth, are blown-out, mostly neo-craftsman style rehabs, and completely new McMansions sometimes three times the size, looming often awkwardly, and squeezed into fenced-off, quarter-acre lots.” These cuts will not go over without a fight and be prepared for the usual suspects to wheel grandmother’s over cliffs, execute the poor on street corners and film women dying in alleys for lacks of “reproductive health care”.

Mordor’s Spending Devil Is In the Details, The Charts Don’t Lie – If we browse over to Government Spending dot com the wonderful information tool for winning budget arguments with Monopoly Men disguised as FaceBook trolls we get all the incriminating data and just how out of control Mordor’s credit card binge is. “Government Spending started out at the beginning of the 20th century at 6.9 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP)….In the aftermath of bank and auto bailouts, government spending surged to wartime levels at 41 percent of GDP. The mortgage emergency seems to have ratcheted out-year spending up a notch. Near term government spending in the future [today] is pegging at 36 percent of GDP.” The chart below and the top of this page tells the story. That Mount Everest sized ridge perched over 2010-2020 is Trumpzilla’s challenge. Secession anyone?:

 

Remember, Remember, The Madmen of 2017’s November? – The madness of progressive SJW’s and their seething hatred of what I am now calling Bonum Americanum – The Good American – is captured on videotape by James O’Keefe of Project Veritas (no relation to Veritas Radio Network) as they plot to plant stink bombs at a pre-inauguration day ball to be attended by Bonibus Americanibus (plural for good Americans). These people have paid their own way, traveled thousands of miles and genuinely wish for their country to back further away from the precipe that leads to Hades she was perched on. These citizens have done no harm and intend no harm to the SJW anti-Trump’ers yet this matters not. Violence, calamity and destruction of private property is plotted by these creeps who also fantasize that if their butyric acid bombs successfully deploy all the sprinkler systems in the National Press Club building, the SJW hordes will be treated to “the added benefit that they will be standing out in the freezing cold soaking wet”. This kind of disregard for life and for privacy is what 56 million dead babies via Roe and every other hideous perversion of the natural law of the family has produced. Congratulations, Murciah, a new civil-war is about to erupt because our allegedly precious “democracy” produced the wrong result for Baphomet’s minions.

Remember, Remember, The Madmen of 2017’s November, IIRead David Hines detailed Twitter take on the 1970’s SJW grandparents who committed THOUSANDS of bombings including the infamous bombings perpetrated by Obama’s buddies Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorn, remember The Weather Underground? The anarchist, hippy punks you saw in the video above, are intending to do the same things as TWU. Still think the ‘Murican Union can be saved?

Obama’s “Post racial” America Was A Fiction That is Becoming A Dangerous Reality – The Fourth Commandment states unequivocally: “Thou shalt honor thy Father and Mother” thus setting up the Order of human affairs that our Creator, Almighty God intended. Beginning with the Bolsheviks in 1917 and carrying on through Planned Parenthood, Roe v Wade, the Welfare State, Hillary’s reign, the slaughter of innocents in Planned Parenthood “clinics” ect etc, ‘Murciah and the West have drifted rapidly toward The State assuming the role of Father if, indeed, angry-ugly women will comply, and bringing about an actual holocaust of all innocents. This has always been the work of Satan and continues today. Now comes the black, male heirs of Barack Obama’s legacy who have taken up the position that even Obama is not radical enough when it comes to exterminating the family. Folks, we must begin to consider the geographic positions of where our children of high school and college age are… for their own safety. “Oh c’mon Mitter Church, that’s just the stress talkin’!” OK, read this, “The Dangerous Myth of The Missing Black Father” here’s an excerpt: “However, responsible fatherhood only goes so far in a world plagued by institutionalized oppression. For black children, the presence of fathers would not alter racist drug laws, prosecutorial protection of police officers who kill, mass school closures or the poisoning of their water.” In the piece OBAMA is chastised for counseling that black fathers matter and can make a difference. Folks, we are not prepared for this, are we? h/t Rod Dreher

‘Muricah Secede or Die? Why Lincoln’s Union Can No Longer Survive – DiHonest Abe Lincoln infamously wrote to newspaper publisher Horace Greeley that he would take any compromise including defending slavery To “preserve the union”. Of course history tells us that the mad man General William T Sherman, brought to bear the concept of Total War and waged it on the Souther people, soldier and civilian, unleashing the greatest military massacre in Earth history. Many people have talked about undoing Lincoln’s deceit but this chatter has never amounted to anything more than a few sympathetic efforts in Vermont, Alaska and now Texas. THEN cam the election of Trumpzilla. As Lew Rockwell points out, Trump’s election and Middle ‘Muricah’s rejection of east coast media elite’s demands indicate a sea change in both opinion and possibility. “Therefore, the causes and conditions leading up to eventual secession are already present. The election of Donald Trump is a huge signal that this will eventually occur as more causes and conditions manifest. Soon, Middle America will discover they will be better off to be their own socio-economic group without having to carry the dead weight of Coastal America bureaucracy and political correctness/foolishness behind it. Those things cost money. To order some small town in Kansas to build bathrooms for a third gender classification means they’ve got to take that money from schools to do it. At some point, Middle America will rather keep that money. I think we’re, hmmm, about ten years away from economic powers arising in Middle America that will create an economic secession and pursue their own economic policies apart from the feds.” Note that the ultimate cause, according to Rockwell, is money, that currency that drives all the affairs of ‘Muricah meaning the secession buck stops here.

DeceptiCONNED: Pray That Trump Becomes An Enemy To The International Imperialists Like Rubio & McCain – Joseph Pearce gives us some guidance on the two paths the Trump Presidency can take, nationalist (good) or Internationalist (bad). “With these criteria in mind, we can begin to judge whether Donald Trump’s presidency will be nationalist or imperialist. If he fights the globalist Empire and defends the weak against the strong, he will be a nationalist (and a hero); if he employs his strength against the weak for what he claims to be American interests, he will be an imperialist (and a villain). For the sake of justice and peace, we can all hope he proves to be a nationalist, and not an internationalist, imperialist, and globalist.” Let us pray that Trumpzilla roars AT the McCain-Rubio Mothra.

Do The Russians Chant USSR! USSR!? – I have talked and written about Vladimir Putin and the DeceptiCON hatred of him that seems neurotic at times. I’ve also talked about the issues that drive that DeceptiCON hatred of Putin that include, principally, Putin’s alliance with the Syrians and the fact that the Russian military has been invited to ally with the Syrians in the war being fought there to defeat ISIS and other jihad revolutionaries. Now comes James Perloff, a former president of the John Birch Society, with the bold statement that the roles of USA vs USSR have been reversed. “Instead, a very different scenario has unfolded. It is the United States that is descending into communism (via creeping socialism), the police state (via the Patriot Act, NSA spying, etc.), and anti-Christianity, as nativity scenes are prohibited at Christmas, gay marriage and transgenderism carry the force of law, and the entertainment industry has gone full Lucifer.” Think about that for a moment folks the ascendant evil of gnosticism and atheism, a goal of the Obama administration, has been a smashing success as I point out below. This is why I have veered my course into discussions of the spiritual war being waged all around us. Perloff is right be he doesn’t have to continue being right. We’ve proven that prayer can be brought to bear to defeat evil – Mrs Clinton – and it will be required in the future.

Time To Dump Fox, Lucifer Should Have Been Enough, Now Comes “The Mick” – The TV show Lucifer has been running for over a year of FoxTV (not to be confused with Fox News) and has been a stealthy success. I say stealthy because the show doesn’t seem to have generated very much opposition from Christians, probably because we have lost the capacity to fear mortal sin, heck most people cannot even utter the words mortal sin these days! Now comes Fox’s latest assault on good humor “The Mick”, a show that spent its debut as an infomercial for Planned Parenthood and has now made “funny” the taking of “the pill” and for encore apostasy the wonders of transgenderism. John Horvat is asking Christians to sign a petition to get Fox to pull the show. Now this probably sounds silly to many readers and a waste of time and resources but recall that the radical homosexual activists were able to torpedo Dr Laura’s show because she refused to retract her correct views on the sin that is sodomy and homosexual relations.

VINDICATION: Mitter Chur, You Had A Have a Good Show Until Now That You Started Talking About Catholicism – Our long, national nightmare is over, the Obama Presidency, yay. So too is the calumny I have tried to cheerfully endure since realizing that our land’s problem was and is spiritual, not political, that even if it were political, the politics are but a symptom of the ultimate rot: a divorce from what tenuous attachment to public acts of faith, piety and holiness that remained. “You had a great career going until you let your religious [Catholic] views take over your show; you are now ruined and your wife and kids are embarrassed, Mike.” Said former friend and warrior Bill E. on one occasion after SiriusXM deemed me “Too Catholic For Satellite Radio“. “Face it, Mike, SiriusXM made a good business decision and you made terrible ones, spouting your Catholic views; they’re smart and you’re finished.” Said Peter. R. I could quote another thousand or so from the Judgement Pornosphere™ but that is sufficient to  make the point: The latest survey-notice NOT a poll- from the Pew Research Center shows that my calling was just and my guidance true. More importantly, we now know the gravity of the pagan world’s power and what we’re up against. From the Pew survey: “When it comes to the nation’s religious identity, the biggest trend during Obama’s presidency is the rise of those who claim no religion at all. Those who self-identify as atheists or agnostics, as well as those who say their religion is “nothing in particular,” now make up nearly a quarter of the U.S. adult population, up from 16% in 2007.” If you’re into statistics that is nearly a 50% gain, not bad if you’re an LGBTQrstlne worshipper or have filmed then publicized, murdering your 3 month old child at a Planned Parenthood clinic, but for “Christian” ‘Muricans, what other course of action was or is there knowing someday we’ll stand before God’s throne and have to answer: “WHAT did YOU do when/during….”

From Russia With Love – After Trump grudgingly conceded that the Russians had some role in “hacking” the 2016 election (N.B. NO ONE knows what, how, when etc), he has now been told that his wish to conduct peace with Putin et al is a dead letter. Senator Marco Rubio went so far as to accuse Putin of “war crimes” which is rich coming from a man who wants to re-invade Iraq because he sees no problem with the first tranche of 500,000 dead non-combatants. Patrick J Buchanan sees a way forward for Trump though: “Clearly, Trump hopes to work out with Putin the kind of detente that President Nixon achieved with Leonid Brezhnev. This should not be impossible. For, unlike the 1970s, there is no Soviet Empire stretching from Havana to Hanoi, no Warsaw Pact dominating Central Europe, no Communist ideology steering Moscow into constant Cold War conflict with the West. Russia is a great power with great power interests. But she does not seek to restore a global empire or remake the world in her image. U.S.-Russian relations are thus ripe for change.” The “War war war, bomb bomb bomb, kill kill kill” lusters in Congress and their think-tank and media buddies are going to provide a quick test of Trump’s resolve here. If “the era of nation building” is truly “over” as Trump pronounced in the campaign, he is going to need serious prayers. Let’s get started…

The “Deep State” Tries To Muscle Trump Off The $4.5 TRILLION BuffetGlenn Greenwald points out that “The Deep State” (sounds ominous! and it is) has set its vicious sights on the Trump Presidency in an attempt to stop it before it begins. This is unprecedented in American not just modern history and Greenwald tells us why. “But cheering for the CIA and its shadowy allies to unilaterally subvert the U.S. election and impose its own policy dictates on the elected president is both warped and self-destructive. Empowering the very entities that have produced the most shameful atrocities and systemic deceit over the last six decades is desperation of the worst kind. Demanding that evidence-free, anonymous assertions be instantly venerated as Truth — despite emanating from the very precincts designed to propagandize and lie — is an assault on journalism, democracy, and basic human rationality.” ‘Membah that on my show we daily pledge to seek and defend the Truth and as Greenwald shows, the errors that produced the warfare, welfare and Media Industrial Complex states cannot be used to correct what those errors have produced:L Trump. “Hold onto your butts” folks.

CNN “Mr President Elect Will You Answer Categorically State…?”, Trump “No, You’re #FakeNews!” – The Trumpzilla returned yesterday to the form that got him chosen as the RNC nominee and President, refusing to bow before the unelected members of Our Elite Ruling Master: The Has Been Media. CNN’s Jim Acosta was chosen as the coal-mine canary for the network to attempt to get Trump to answer a question but Trump chose to deflect Acosta a half dozen times (see video below). When Acosta insisted that he had some sort of privilege to be acknowledged by virtue of the fact that he was in the room, Trump, in cadence retorted, “your organization’s terrible”. This bubble-shattering, “you’re fired” moment will become known as “The Shout heard ’round the world” and the Has-Been Media indignant response was swift. The NY Times swiftly insisted that the White House Press Corps basically serves some Constitutional purpose and ultimately must be included in trump’s activities: “The treatment of Mr. Acosta raised alarms among news media advocates and his fellow journalists, particularly after Mr. Acosta described a threat by Mr. Spicer to eject him from the news conference when he persisted in trying to ask the president-elect a question. The National Press Club also lamented Mr. Trump’s behavior, saying in a statement: “Presidents shouldn’t get to pick and choose which reporters’ questions they will answer based on what news outlet for which they work.” “ Why not!? what rule or code of conduct is violated by avoiding assassins poisoned darts!? I continue to laud Trump’s treatment of “the media” as the hostile force they are. For over half a century these unelected snobs have sneered down their noses at everyone who is not them and changed the course of an entire nation’s history and culture in the process. Good riddance. What’s that old joke, “what do you call 1,000 reporters at the bottom of the sea…?”

“Where Are The White Women At?” – Cleavon Little belted this still infamous line out in Mel Brooks’ Blazing Saddles almost 40 years ago, were he to annunciate it today among the SJW crowd, he would be immediately targeted as an enemy of “real women” and the Black Lives Matter mob. Folks, you just can’t make this stuff up, witness this from the NY Times in a piece about “Contentious” women activists: “Ms. Willis, a 50-year-old wedding minister from South Carolina, had looked forward to taking her daughters to the march. Then she read a post on the Facebook page for the march that made her feel unwelcome because she is white. The post, written by a black activist from Brooklyn who is a march volunteer, advised “white allies” to listen more and talk less. It also chided those who, it said, were only now waking up to racism because of the election. “You don’t just get to join because now you’re scared, too,” read the post. “I was born scared.” Stung by the tone, Ms. Willis canceled her trip.” The error of “Ragged individualism” (yes, that is spelled correctly) is upon us. Funny how those who accuse

#FakeNews: The Has-Been Media Accuses Trump of Actually BEING A Russian Operative – The story that oozed from the demonic “news” outlet formerly known as CNN purports that 4 unidentified members of the Trump Campaign have been under surveillance and investigation since July for their collusion with the Russian government. The implication here is crystal clear: Trump is a Russian/Commie sympathizer who cannot be trusted so let him begin his “administration” under a cloud of suspicion that should lead to a “special prosecutor/investigator” being impaneled. In other words, stop Trump from doing what Trump has promised to do, even if that means recklessly slandering him in the process. David French offers this take on this turkey of a coup: “How can “Americans make up their own minds” when they have no ability to fact-check the allegations? The public knows nothing about the sources, nothing about the underlying claims, and has no means of discovering the truth. Buzzfeed admits that “there is serious reason to doubt the allegations.” It’s been using its journalistic resources trying to verify the claims for “weeks” and hasn’t been able to. But “Americans” can somehow do what Buzzfeed can’t? This isn’t transparency; it’s malice.” But is ANY of this substantiated by the actual facts? Are there such disgruntled Clinton/Obama hacks in the federal monstrosity that they would stoop to this level of subterfuge to preserve “progressivism’s gains”? If so, what does that say about HOW those gains were made, what good they bring about (none), when espionage and character assassination are needed to prop them up. Let’s just secede and get it over with, already.

#FakeNews II: Trump’s Special Counsel Calls BS – Michael Cohen one of the four alleged double agents mentioned above, denies that he has ever been to Prague in his life, much less been there to meet with the KGB and plot ‘Muricah’s doom.

#FakeNews III: Trumpzilla Is MORE Terrifying Than We Ruling Elites Have Imagined, Runnnnn For The Light Carol Anne!Then comes this hyperbolic shriek of literal terror from “writer” Anita Finlay who is so convinced that the greatest injustice in human history was committed in “denying” Mrs. Clinton her rightful Rule as Empress of the Americas! Folks, you just can’t make this stuff up: “More painful is that in their guilt, craven media operatives will continue to push revisionist history to blame Secretary Clinton for their own folly. Trump’s obfuscations about his possible business conflicts, his lack of transparency, Putin association, refusal to release his tax returns, Trump University scandal, Pam Bondi pay-to-play and more have been out there for many months. But a privileged Beltway class thought it more important to burn a qualified woman at the stake rather than treat the American people with dignity by regaling them with facts. Now we will pay the price. They won’t.” Wow, how ominous, we are all going “to pay” as if we haven’t “paid” under 16 years of Obama/Clinton tyranny. Good Lord, folks, there aren’t enough people praying Holy Rosaries ON EARTH to stave off this evil.

Angry, Ugly Women Unite To Plea For More Baby Killing – One of the most depressing things to witness in the era of the sexually perverted, confused and obsessed are the diabolical musings of so many women lusting for an increase in abortions i.e. baby killings. At least when the Aztecs did it, they had a purpose i.e. changing the weather, bringing good harvests etc, but what purpose does the never-ending wailing for increased abortion serve? I have previously written that perhaps The Fetus Dumpling Gang, led by Cher and Scarlett Johanssen, might erect an altar on The Mall at next Saturday’s “March for Women” and sacrifice a farm animal while reenacting one of the murder ceremonies from Mel Gibson’s Apocalypto. There, to the true demon-gods of the Americas, they can “pray” for more illicit sex followed by a rise in Planned Parenthood’s stock price. But seriously, this is disturbing, macabre behavior. As Heather Wilhelm points out, besides abortion, what exactly is the point? “The rhetoric of the past election cycle has insulted, demonized, and threatened many of us. We are confronted with the question of how to move forward in the face of national and international concern and fear.” The “left” is in an expanding state of disorder folks which should reinforce, in your minds, that a Return To Order is in play and more importantly that error can only produce more diabolical error.

The LGBTQrstlne Gaystappo Conquers National Geographic – The Orcs of gender have planted another flag in the editorial offices of a widely distributed, popular print magazine: National Geographic. Under the deceitful title: How Science Is Helping Us Understand Gender, NatGeo allows a petty, NY Times employed, hack (who previously wrote about “The Science of Death”) to promote the world-wide mutilation of anyone who’s ever had the thought that they aren’t “the gender I was born with”. This includes children and the author even goes so far as to publish a photograph of a 17 year old girl (see below) who suffered a double mastectomy so she can look like the boy the forces of Mammon tell her she is. Folks this madness is what our era is going to be remembered for and we better conform our minds to the reality that Satan has his sights set on our children and is unloading 90 caliber sex-Howitzers to gain their souls. Thankfully, there are doctors who have weighed in to demolish NatGeo’s diabolical capitulation.

“The final page of Henig’s article celebrates the mutilation of minor children with a full-page picture of a shirtless 17-year old girl who recently underwent a double mastectomy in order to “transition” to being a boy. Why do transgender ideologues consider it harmful to attempt to change such a child’s mind but consider it progress to display her bare, mutilated chest for a cover story? Transgender ideologues like Henig never address this ethical contradiction at the heart of their paradigm.” Folks, those who thought I was too heavy on this subject in 2015-16x now see why I rang and continue to ring the alarms. And BTW, this is NOT “an issue for the states to decide”. This has been decided by God and by his teaching long ago, what will we tell him at Judgement if we fail to spare thousands of souls from adapting this gender-bending apostasy? ht/t Rod Dreher

“Mitter Church, We Just Gotta Get Back To Da Contituthun!” Pt II – There are lots of books that now serve as pulp for the future publication of good books. You know the kind that are all title and “blurb” and no substance? To read a work that is not of this ilk and is actually important I suggest Bruce Frohnnen and George Carey’s “Constitutional Morality”, reviewed by Allen Mendenhall here. Frohnnen and Carey correctly make the case that there is no going back to the order established by “the framers” of the Constitution. That law has become so onerous and pernicious, detached from its Christendom forged moral anchors, that the way forward is from the ground up. But not the kind of “we the people” ground up, but rather a community based return to morality, privately engaged but in public.

The Judgement Pornosphere™ At Not So Golden Globes – “Hollywood” belches out a never-ending stream of mortally-sinful tripe, assisting tens of millions into fulfilling Our Lady’s promise from Fatima that “millions of souls will fall into Hell like snowflakes” but no matter! Actors have earned the right to act all actor-ie and pronounce what is good and what is bad, and President Trump is BAD, just ask Golden Glove, Lifetime Achievement Award winner Meryl Streep. In accepting her award for ACTING, Streep reminded the few people watching, that Trump allegedly made fun of a physically disabled reporter and it was beneath the dignity of the office of the Presidency. Never mind that Trump did not mock the reporter in question’s disability, Streep’s audience and “Hollywood” don’t bother with facts and why should they when manufacturing apostasy as entertainment is so much fun. If Streep wants to protect and defend the disabled, why not spend the moments of her speech denouncing the 4 black teenagers who planned the executed the diabolical plot to abduct then torture 18 year old Austin Hilbourn? Hillbourn’s mental disability and the real-life fact that he was targeted because he was white AND disabled is what actual hate-crime “acting” looks like, Ms Streep.

 

It’s January 2017 And The Immodesty Is About To Go Nuclear Because It WENT Nuclear – Venerable Bishop Sheen called out ‘Muricah back in the 1960’s while speaking to a group of young Catholics on “Youth and Sex”: “8:15 in the morning, the 6th of August, 1945, when we flew a military plane over this city, when we dropped that atomic bomb on it; that bomb on blotted out boundaries. There was no longer a boundary between the military and the civilian, between the helper and the helped, between the wounded and the nurse and the doctor, between the living and the dead. For even the living who escaped the bomb were already half dead. So we broke down boundaries and limits and from that time on the world has said we want no one limiting me. … You want no restraint, no boundaries, no limitsI have to do what I want to do. Now let’s analyze that for a moment, is that happiness?”

The Tragedy of Post Christian, Philosophia Perennis Devoid ThinkingRead this piece from AmConMag writer Noah Millman to get a closeup view of why Philosophia Perennis is so desperately needed to corral the erroneous thinking Men are sure to engage in when NOT grounded in the eternal quest for True Wisdom i.s. Sapientia. The issue Noah, is not whether “only the Saints” can live by the Magisterial code, it is that by God’s Grace the Saints DID live the Tradition WHILE receiving the Graces needed to do so. You cannot approach Grace as zero sum, mathematics, as in if I do ______ I will receive ______ “Grace credits” but if I do ______I will have deducted ______ Grace Credits. Grace is present in the world and we are given the supply needed at Baptism, the suffering of the Christian Faithful is simply to maintain the state you enter at Baptism, using the Gospels and the Traditional Teaching as MEANS to that END. As Padré Gaetano tells us in Humility of Heart: “And has not a saint abundant reasons, from the thought of his own weakness, to live always in a state of great humility, when he knows that from one hour to another he may lose the grace of God and the kingdom of heaven which he has merited by years of laboriously-acquired virtues? “Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.”
