Don't believe me look up the papal bull called dum diversas. The rc church literally forced an image of wyt jesus onto us to have us thinking they are gods of the earth when according to the book the messiah is a dark skinned man. We are the true children of Israel we do not need the RC church or labels like Christianity to advocate for us we just need to remember who were before being put on ships and sold to self supreme wicked people, they never have so why would they start now.

I’d be a messed up human shitty being if I didn’t even take interest in the same ethic background as sister Lancaster,African American. W.OA : try not to focus so much on the negative in people and try instead not to look for negatives that aren’t even there. Like reading way too much into it to find a negative so that when you do find one, it’ll make you feel better than me bc you may have found a flaw in me. Yea.. I’m not perfect but Jesus knows my heart. Man always looks at the exterior but God judges the heart.. In the book of Samuel Memorial of Saint Justin, Martyr Lectionary: 350 Reading 1. 06-01-2023 Sir 42:15-25 Now will I recall God’s works; what I have seen, I will describe. At God’s word were his works brought into being; they do his will as he has ordained for them. As the rising sun is clear to all, so the glory of the LORD fills all his works; Yet even God’s holy ones must fail in recounting the wonders of the LORD, Though God has given these, his hosts, the strength to stand firm before his glory. He plumbs the depths and penetrates the heart;❤️🙏 their innermost being he understands. The Most High possesses all knowledge, and sees from of old the things that are to come: He makes known the past and the future, and reveals the deepest secrets. No understanding does he lack; no single thing escapes him. Perennial is his almighty wisdom; he is from all eternity one and the same, With nothing added, nothing taken away; no need of a counselor for him! How beautiful are all his works! even to the spark and fleeting vision! The universe lives and abides forever; to meet each need, each creature is preserved. All of them differ, one from another, yet none of them has he made in vain, For each in turn, as it comes, is good; can one ever see enough of their splendor?

Also, the lining of the coffin had already deteriorated, but other than a slight bit of mold, the fabric of her habit was fully intact.

Why was she exhumed in the first place? Why wasnt she embalmed?

[@rebecca14798]

It's common for nuns bodies not to be embalmed. They do things as simply and inexpensively as possible. She was exhumed to be moved to a place of honor in a crypt under a recently completed altar as is also common for the foundress of an order of nuns.

[@ceciliarauth9481]

Incorruptibility is a sign of sanctity in Roman Catholic tradition. There's an entire book written about incorrupt Catholic saints called The Incorruptibles. Fr. Solanus Casey, a Capuchin Franciscan priest is incorrupt. He was the porter at St. Bonaventure in Detroit. People lined up around the block waiting to visit with him because many miracles were attributed to his prayers. St. Bernadette Soubirous of Lourdes, France is an incorrupt saint.

[@rebecca14798]

They were moving her body into a crypt under an altar inside the chapel as she was their foundress and that is where the foundress is usually buried. It's my understanding that either the crypt or chapel was just finished. When they uncovered the coffin which was a simple pine box there was a crack and they could see her foot. They were told to expect mostly bones as she wasn't embalmed.

And those children will grow up and vote along with their parents. All this from a "Bible" that has NO original documents, and is a copy after copies, and written by mostly UNKNOWN AUTHORS who wrote about this "Jesus" character DECADES AFTER his supposed death.

It was explained on a different site that due to the excessive rains they had this spring, the grave imploded and the coffin was cracked. When the Mother Abbess peeked into the coffin with a flashlight to check the damage, she saw that the body was intact and hadn't deteriorated. Also, the lining of the coffin had already deteriorated, but other than a slight bit of mold, the fabric of her habit was fully intact. That started the process to contact the Bishop to have the body exhumed for examination to determine a miracle. God used a natural event to get everyone's attention to His supernatural event!

Please stop worshipping the dead. The dead can do nothing for you. Repent and believe the gospel, and be born again Catholics of the water, and of the Spirit of God as the Bible Commands that you may enter the kingdom of God (John 3:5-7). The one that you call your First Pope, the Apostle Peter commanded that every believer must Repent of their sins, and be baptized in the water (immersion) in the name of JESUS CHRIST for the remission of sins, and be filled with the baptism of the Holy Ghost as on the day of Pentecost See (Acts 2:37-38),(Acts 10:44-47). Praying to the dead or communicating with the dead is an ABOMINATION unto the LORD GOD (Deuteronomy 18:9-11). Stop and repent before you lose your soul in hell. No idolater will enter God's kingdom (Revelation 21:8).
