Who Is Saint Vincent de Paul? | The Catholic Saints Podcast

[@joyceglover9535]

I have been blessed with a position at St. Vincent de Paul as a volunteer in Social Services, starting Tuesday. Thank you for enlightening me on whom and why I have been called to serve God’s people.

Definitely some parallels between his time and ours. Didn't realize he focused more on the spiritual works of mercy

IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT I AM HE, YOU SHALL DIE IN YOUR SINS (JOHN 8:24): JESUS CAME TO DO THE WILL OF THE FATHER AND TO FINISH HIS WORK (JOHN 4:34), BUT MOST WILL DIE IN THEIR SINS BECAUSE THEY DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THE FATHER HAS SENT JESUS. INSTEAD, THEY THINK JESUS IS GOD; THIS IS PROOF THEY DON'T BELIEVE IN THE FATHER. BELIEVING IN JESUS ALONE IS NOT ETERNAL LIFE. JESUS TOLD US WHAT ETERNAL LIFE IS WHEN HE SAID “AND THIS IS LIFE ETERNAL, THAT THEY MIGHT KNOW *YOU,* THE ONLY TRUE GOD, AND JESUS CHRIST, WHOM THOU HAST SENT” (JOHN 17:3). ANYONE WHO CHANGES THIS BECAUSE OF THEIR OWN UNDERSTANDING OF VERSES LIKE JOHN 1:1, HEBREWS 1:8, JOHN 13:31-32, ISAIAH 9:6, ETC. IS CALLING JESUS A LIAR, AND THUS CALLING GOD THE FATHER A LIAR AS WELL. JESUS ONLY SPEAKS THE WORDS OF GOD. THOSE WHO CHANGE THIS WILL DIE IN THEIR SINS.
