“God Will Not Stand In Awe of Any Man’s Greatness.”—Wis 6:8

By |2024-09-24T11:02:28+00:00September 24th, 2024|Theology|

For God will not except any man's person, neither will He stand in awe of any man's greatness. For He made the little and the great, and He hath equally care of all.—Wis 6:8. Last week, I was in a desert in Africa.   That desert is majestic and unforgiving, as seen in the picture I snapped above.  In the desert, one realizes how insignificant he be before God. For example, if I wandered off into the desert and died, I would be the talk of Catholic Twitter for a day. Friends would say how great I was. Enemies would say how terrible I was. But within a week, only [...]

Interview of Bishop Williamson by Fr. David Nix

By |2024-09-23T08:26:40+00:00September 23rd, 2024|Podcasts, Sermons, Talks|

Richard Williamson was born in the UK during WWII in 1940. He converted from Anglicanism to Catholicism in 1971. He was later ordained a priest in 1976 and consecrated a bishop in 1988, both by Archbishop Lefebvre. Retired Naval Academy professor Dr. David Allen White wrote that Bishop Williamson is “the most outspoken, detested, persistent, outrageous, implacable, unyielding, forthright, kindly and charitable Catholic Bishop." I hope you agree after hearing this podcast. (The second half is the best.)

On LifeSite News, Mr. John-Henry Westin and I discuss which is actually older:   The so-called "Tridentine Mass" or the Novus Ordo Missae.  We also consider overlap in the seven ancient sacraments when considering the old Latin Rite in light of the Eastern Rites of the Catholic Church.

On Christ’s Relatives and Power

By |2024-09-20T09:14:55+00:00September 20th, 2024|Life|

Below are two interesting questions I received on email.  I publish with his permission: Dear Father Nix, Please be so kind and share with me your explanation of following passage: Mark 6:1-6 "Jesus left there and went to his hometown, accompanied by his disciples. When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. “Where did this man get these things?” they asked. “What’s this wisdom that has been given him? What are these remarkable miracles he is performing? Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” [...]

The Betrayal of the Catholic Church in China

By |2024-09-19T06:32:43+00:00September 19th, 2024|Theology|

Above: Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Zen, p/c New Liturgical Movement There is some historical evidence that suggests St. Thomas the Apostle went not only to India, but all the way to China. At the latest, we know there were Christians in China from AD 600 forward. Since then, they have been few in percentages but great in suffering for Jesus Christ.  The persecution of Catholics in China peaked in the 20th century under the Boxer Rebellion and Mao's Red China. But in 1957, the Communists tried a new move in establishing the "Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association." This was an attempt to mimic the hierarchy of the true Catholic Church [...]

Single-Celibacy and Consecrated-Virginity Part 2

By |2024-09-12T22:00:38+00:00September 12th, 2024|Theology|

Above left is St. Mary of Egypt and above right is St. Benedict Labre.  Both were single celibates wandering around without community who later became canonized.  It is not the ideal to go through life without a family or convent, but it is possible to become a saint in such unusual circumstances.  This article is a follow up to Single-Celibacy and Consecrated-Virginity Part 1 from earlier this week.  Let's now look at what the Holy Spirit said through the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 7:25-35.  As always, words of Scripture will be in italics.  My less-important commentary will be in orange bold. Now concerning the betrothed, I have no command [...]
