Scott Hahn is one of my favorite Catholics. Extremely reasonable, charitable in his speech & great intelligence. Logical & KIND.

[@glendavis3257]

I am so glad I became a Catholic! At age 42; I got baptized; i.e. "born again!" and I actually receive from God what I pray for: ".... give us this day our Daily Bread!" = and have my sins, truly forgiven by Jesus Himself; through His personal representative(a Catholic Priest) monthly now for the last 31 years! Thank you Papa God; thank you Jesus; thank you Holy Spirit! Amen!!!

[@HarryNicNicholas]

yipee!!

[@ceilsloan9735]

Suffering can be a blessing. It is God's way of letting us us us participate in and share in the suffering of Christ himself.

[@bizarte24_]

It is possible to overdo anything. If it doesn't do you any good, if you aren't getting anything out of it, why bother?

[@ecurkendoll]

My heart leaps for joy when I hear you speak God's truth!!! I have learned so much and will continue to seek our Lord with every breath I take. Thank you Dr. Hahn!!

[@HarryNicNicholas]

if you actually read the bible, i mean even the bits about romans with knobs like a donkey, and the prostitutes bits, satan actually comes across as a lot nicer, certainly not as childish or spiteful as god. try it, read the bible one day.

[@Steve-qr2lm]

The greatest that ever lived; He had no servants, yet they called Him Master. He had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. He had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet Kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He had no crime, yet they crucified Him. He had no need, yet He forgave them as they mocked. He loves you so much He took the punishment of your sin. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. His name is Jesus Christ and He is the Saviour of the world.

[@Joh-jf5kc]

Amen! What more could you possibly give than Jesus. And since perfect love means to give unconditionally, "God is love" (1. John 4:16)

[@lupsy54]

Beautifully said!!! 🙏🏼♥️

[@lindahiebert2948]

Am ashamed how have been acting over my suffering; thanx AGAIN Dr. Hahn, so MUCH to sink in with your works!

[@Gpacharlie]

@Linda Hiebert Don’t be hard on yourself Linda. It has taken me 20 years to come to a lived understanding of offering it up and uniting it with Jesus. Thank God for Catholic teachers who explain it.

[@lionoffireministries]

For those who are struggling, I want to tell you that I am sorry that you are going through this 😢 2 Corinthians 1:3 says that God is a God of comfort 😊 - we need not struggle alone. He loves you and He desires to draw near to you and lighten your load, soothe you and uplift you even in the midst of your struggles 🙏 Sending my love from Australia, Matt 😊

[@tilicua91]

It is amazing that we are living this mystery en every Eucharist

[@ms.cordero2784]

I was contemplating on this subject just yesterday as I felt that the Spirit of the Lord was urging me to revisit it. Listening to this teaching and looking at what it entails under the light of the present moral climate in our Nation, and what is written in Scripture; it gives me hope that what is coming will be worth suffering for. God bless you Dr. Hahn; your teachings have been of incalculable value in my Spiritual life.

[@silviae1000]

Thank you Dr. Hahn my faith is enlightened by your words. Blessings from Argentina. Please come to my country. It's far away, I know, but I'm sure there will be many people very happy to hear your talks. I bought your book Rome sweet home for myself and another one for a friend, she said it was the best present. Will you come?

[@e.w.1179]

Thank you for another great talk Scott Hahn, and God Bless you!!!

[@adamvernon2783]

I am just a poor sinner but I have been blessed to be an instrument of Our Immaculate Mary...Having prayed the devotion for many months every aspect I have discerned.. I have over certain parts but every time the Holy Spirit has shown me through study of Church and prayers and devotion and this is a Gift truly!! I will send the Promises attached to these prayers and the children, and the quiet, and “non essential “ with draw adoration and honor to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Wounds will heal and Tears will will cease and Thanks be to the King of Peace...May The Precious Blood of Jesus Christ cover and the whole world. Thank you my friends

[@eleanorhouston223]

Our Lord still "suffers" in His Sacred Heart, e.g. what He revealed to St. Margaret Mary in His Lamentation , to the ffect that, "Behold the Heart that has loved so much, but is Loved so little, in return." God have Mercy, on us, Amen.

[@feaokautai7354]

You are a HERO clarifying, empowering and reminding us to focus on JESUS CHRIST & HIS VALUES IN THE GOSPEL, SAINTS, MARTYRS ...ORDINARY PEOPLE WHO ARE SUFFERED FOR TRUTH. Praise God for your blessings, brilliance and love in God in the TRINITY.

Thanks Dr. Hahn, may God bless you ever more.

[@keithgudenkauf3005]

Great message! As a recent revert back to the faith I’ve been on fire with an extreme desire for the truth and knowledge of God. As I read the New Testament I felt the basic message could be boiled down to Love, Mercy and Justice. I’ve seen the reflection in the sacrament of the Eucharist as Love and Mercy in reconciliation but was searching where justice comes in. Thank you for your insight Dr. Hahn

[@joolz5747]

These personal short talks are wonderful. You have always opened my eyes to so much. You are an example for all. You are loved by God and us so much!

[@CarlosRodriguez-er4hh]

[@florecitaperdon5054]

Dr. Hahn, such a beautiful, profound understanding and evaluation of suffering from the Christian/Catholic view, I am sharing it on Meta to all my friends, Catholic or otherwise. Thank you.

[@kevin-gf5uz]

We were given this prayer at Fatima, Portugal in 1917 by our Blessed Mother for those times when we suffer or make sacrifices: “Sacrifice yourselves for sinners and say many times, especially when you make a sacrifice, ‘O Jesus, this is for love of Thee, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.’” This has also been referred to by Catholics as redemptive suffering. It is a way to make use of our suffering and help us understand the purpose of suffering.

It’s all about Mary it never was about us that’s why I must have been raped that’s why I went through abuse that’s why people are hurt and raped and killed because it’s only about Gods singular love for Mary. I had promises but I don’t know where they are at

[@SueDamron]

Thank you, Dr Hahn!! This means so much! I can’t thank you enough!

[@IHS333]

Wow God really poured his grace on Scott Hahn

[@juliesherwood8535]

I’ve agonized over this teaching for many years; the proposed reality any human must be massacred to save another doesn’t pass the test of critical examination. The victory over our “fallen” natures is the sacrifice, (dark night of the soul) and resurrection, (self mastery) I am happy believing Christ is within. A deep desire to live in THAT paradigm, that LOVE, sustains me.

[@philalcoceli6328]

For the sufferings, confusion and corruption within the Church, please ask the intercession of Pope Saint Pius V, who was a most exemplary Pope during the revolution of Luther and many other crises. His holy attitude is something to praise God very highly for and to imitate. I very highly recommend the book "Saint Pius V" by Roberto de Mattei from Sophia Institute Press. Every time a Catholic suffers, the whole Mystical Body suffers and vice versa. That book is invaluable to help deal with and sanctify all kinds of suffering and all trials! Enjoy!!

[@JayRedding12_12]

I love they way this man speaks. He doesn't just explain facts in a clear way, but he's always well worded. Almost poetic.

[@user-qf7lp1yb4l]

Dear Dr Hahn, thanks for this beautiful explanation. In my opinion, two things can be said to summarise. The Father, more than seeing humanity through the Son, sees humanity with the Son and the Holy Spirit because humanity was already in his heart before the beginning of time. In the end, the Holy Trinity is perfect sharing. He loved us before we were created. This should give us the joy to carry on our cross. If this is true, then the Lord's perspective is cyclical. We imitate Jesus' sacrifice, and our suffering is a reminder that we are trodding His path (the Via Crucis). In the end, we all know that love is a sacrifice. Looking at Him as we make our own sacrifice is the most precious thing to Him, since our sacrifice becomes redemptive.

[@fr.mhaseikholiemartin1205]

[@eduardohoover2127]

I did not know the intertwining of love and suffering; suffering and love but it's so true. The love of the Father through Jesus His Son and through Mary His Mother. Such love so profound and sweetly overwhelming; just when I think I have it all figured out, my faith surendipously deepens: thank you Lord Jesus that I heard this message. I disagree that Christ suffered only a couple of days, for through the Church's Sacrament of the Eucharist instituted by Jesus Himself, sustained by His Church, Jesus' suffering is perpetualized, may I say even sempiternal from ages ago before time, not for some sadistic means but because of the sempiternal Love of God now manifest by Jesus suffering and the Eucharist. We see the Father in the Eucharist as the Father sees us through His Son. Thank you Father. Thank you Lord, Spirit of God, for this message. It's like a powerful energy drink for my soul better than the milk this babe has suckled upon for so long; too long. Let me ever be close to Thee that my suffering and love may intertwine with Yours. The glass has been made more translucent for my gaze into the Face of God and His shekinah glory. Praise Him Church Militant, Praise Him Church Suffering so in love, Praise Him Church Glorified; forever praise the Lord with instruments of peace. Don't forget your servant Job's love for you in his suffering. Let me be as him but spare me the test, though I have been greatly tested; their cursing has been my blessing. Let me not know my portion doubling, for I am content will all your provision, for my treasure is stored in the heavens, sealed through Your Church here on earth. + Amen

Prayer for Endurance through the Coming Chastisement (13 July 1998) “My children, pray that this period you are living in now will be shortened. Pray also that your faith will not fail. Be on your guard. Be alert and watch always...Many will give up their faith at the last minute when everything is about to pass . . . This period will suddenly catch up with many people because they are not prepared . . . How many of you will fight and drive back My adversary, conquer, and bring the captives home?...My children, learn this prayer and pray it always especially during the hour of trials... When My people rejected Me and condemned Me and said, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” I looked up to heaven and prayed to My Father and said...” Merciful and loving Father, Your wish is that all men shall be saved. Kindly look on Your rejected and condemned Son Who suffered many tortures and will suffer many through the sins of Your people. Look and see what sin has done to your only-begotten Son. I offer for all Your people who are living in these ungodly and wicked days, all the tortures, pains, rejection and 104 shame of your Son, Jesus Christ, to You, for the faith to withstand trials and patience to withstand long torture. May they through the suffering of Your only Son, fight to the end. Amen. Our Lord’s torture - increase our faith. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ - save us. Amen. Prayer for Fallen Sheep and Against a Fall in Faith (22 July 1998) “I envisaged constant abandonment of faith in my people and how they will constantly reject their God and crucify Me daily. The pains grew in intensity when I saw how hard it will be for them to return...Many there were who would stop on the way because they thought the way was too hard and long ...How large the number of My people who will lose hope and fall... I say to you, My children, wake up and stand firm! During My fall, I remembered all these things and offered them to My Father through this prayer... Through it, My Father will pour on you all the needed graces to endure until the end. All who pray it devotedly will possess the fullness of the Holy Spirit and learn to be obedient and humble.” 105 Eternal and loving Father, look kindly on Your only-begotten Son. See the heavy Cross prepared for Your only Son and have mercy on Your people. I offer to You all the pains, suffering, and Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ, Emmanuel, for all Your people who have abandoned their faith and will abandon their faith in the mountainous hills and deep valleys of this world. May they, through the falling of Your Son under the Cross, have strength to rise again and stand firm in the true faith. Through the ocean of His Precious Blood dumped under the Cross on the streets of Jerusalem strengthen all who are eager to do Your Will. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ - strengthen our weakened souls. Amen. Prayer for the Reign of Glory on Earth (27 July 1998) “Children, live the life of your consecration now. You will learn much from Me . . . you will go safely in the hour that is coming . . . you will know when, who, and what to do . . . The manifestation of the Red Dragon and the antichrist in this last hour of this age pierced My Heart greatly during My ministry on earth and even more when I was about to breathe My last on the Cross. 106 As I hung on the Cross, I envisaged the proud Dragon. It boasted to reign on earth forever . . . I silently offered My Father this prayer for the downfall of the enemy of the Cross...My children, through this prayer the antichrist and the Red Dragon and his agents will have a short hour of reign on earth. The more you pray, the shorter the hour of their reign on earth.” O loving and merciful Father. You are all knowledgeable and all-powerful. Oh Alpha! Oh Omega! Creator of all things. You are eternal, Father. Father, why are you forsaking me? Look kindly on Your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ, Who came to save your people and bring Your Kingdom down on earth. I offer You all the agonies, tortures, pains, and Precious Blood of Your only Son, Jesus Christ, for the defeat of all the enemies of the Holy Cross of salvation; the antichrist and the Red Dragon who are fighting or will fight against the truth now and in the end of the age. May they, through the Precious Blood of Our Redeemer and His last breath on earth, disappear like foam exposed under the sun, so that Your Kingdom will quickly come on earth. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ - Thy Kingdom come. Amen. 107 Prayer Against the Sins of the Flesh (28 July 1998) “Pray much for My youth . . . many will be lost due to (this) sin . . . I was naked in the sight of all men so that you shall defeat and kill the desires of the flesh which lead to this sin of fornication and adultery. Children, My adversary used this sin to claim all men to himself...Any sinner who constantly prays this prayer will gain true repentance...The more you pray it, the more (souls) will return to me and leave fornication and adultery. Many people will be lost due to the sins of the flesh. Work hard to save souls...” Holy and merciful Father, Your only- begotten Son is standing naked in the sight of all men, so that Your people will know and fear Your holy law. Accept my humble prayer for all Your people who are living under iniquity, fornication and adultery, that through all the shame and disgrace of Your only-begotten Son, You will touch their lives for repentance and save them. May they, through the Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ, which I plead to fall on their hearts, gain repentance and be saved. Through His shame make them bold for repentance. Amen. 108 Prayer for the Baptism of Aborted Babies (29 July 1998) “Today the blood of innocent children has filled heaven. Their number is too great, too great . . . the wrath of the Eternal Father is about to fall on mankind...Their blood disturbs My Agonizing Heart and increases My agony...Through this prayer, large numbers of innocent unborn babies will be saved. Pray it daily and make it known to the world. Anyone who teaches it will not be lost. Innocent souls in heaven will not let them become lost. I, with My Love and Mercy, will protect them from falling into mortal sin.” Heavenly Father, Your love is eternal. In Your ocean of love, You saved the world through Your only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ. Now look at Your only Son on the Cross Who is constantly bleeding for love of His people, and forgive Your world. Purify and baptize aborted children with the Precious Blood and water from the Sacred Side of Your Son, Jesus Christ, Who hung dead on the Cross for their salvation; in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. May they, through the holy death of Jesus Christ, gain everlasting life, through His wounds be healed and through His Precious Blood be freed. There to rejoice with the saints in heaven. Amen. 109 SHORT & EFFICACIOUS REPARATION PRAYER TO THE ETERNAL FATHER (22 July 1999) “All who adore My Precious Blood console My Father Who loves His Son the most. As you adore My Blood, the pains of My Sacred Heart lessen. The Sorrowful Heart of My Mother will also be consoled. Children, adore My Precious Blood always and offer it to My Father for mercy. Hear this prayer. Pray it always in reparation for the sins of the whole world. Pray it three times each time you pray it. I assure you that the Divine Mercy will multiply. Pray it always and many times a day, since you are living in these ungodly days. Pray it so that you shall be safe from the purification fire. Children, make it known to the whole world.” Eternal Father, I offer to You all the wounds of Your dearly beloved Son, Jesus Christ; the pains and agony of His Sacred Heart and His Most Precious Blood, which gushed out from all his wounds, for the reparation of my sins and those of the whole world. Amen. (repeat 3 times) 110

We Catholics need to clean our own Church first..and then we need to reach out to our brothers and sisters in the faith to bring a better understanding between one another.. exercise forgiveness as Jesus ask of us..and to do it with love for one another..but mostly because we all love our God! 💠

Question: If the heart is what unites the human body and soul what happens at the time of death when body and soul are separated. What of the existence of the heart then - does it remain with the soul alone when the body becomes inanimate.

[@Alma-tz8km]

It seems to me he is talking about feelings:love. Not of the organ itself. Love unites soul and body

[@Tsumebleraar]

To understand the death of Jesus read the incomparable commentary of Martin Luther on the letter of St.Paul to the Galatians.

[@Joh-jf5kc]

"God is love." 1. John 4:16 If I love how someone makes me feel, that is love. But all love derives from God's perfect love. Divine love (Agape) is about unconditional acceptance, about giving uncondtionally. What more could one possibly give than Jesus on the cross? God becoming man, living a sinless life - receiving the worst punishment for it. Therefore all he wants us to do is to surrender uncondtionally, to accept his unconditional love in us. By accepting his gift we can finally love God with all our hearts. So that we might identify ourselves with our belovedness, not with our own pride. Which leads to real self-love so that we can love ourselves and therefore our neighbours as ourselves. Only if we become an overflowing bowl filled with him, that is to say love itself, we can truly love others. This love is the holy spirit, in which God himself became man so that he might gather us back in his love through the most perfect manifestation of love in Christ's life, death and resurrection. Again, what more could one give, how shall one give more uncondtionally? That is perfect love, that is him.

My mom was protestant but had a Catholic therapist who repeatedly told her, "Love is sacrifice." She lived that way sacrificing herself, taught me that "love is sacrifice" instead of teaching me to take care of myself, then she got a stress related illness and died, and I now struggle with valuing myself. It's a habit where I always put others' needs before my own. Similar to codependency. I'm just not so sure about this theology. Jesus paid it all. I'm pretty anti-Catholic now.

Precious Blood of Jesus Daily Devotional A Prayer Book Written, edited and compiled by The Adorers of the Precious Blood NIHIL OBSTAT: Rev. Fr. Stephen Obiukwu Censor Deputatus Chairman, Doctrine and Faith Committee Archdiocese of Onitsha, Anambra State, Nigeria 1 July 1999 Compiled entirely from Church-approved sources Dedication To Our Lady of Guadalupe whose virginal blood mingled with the most Precious Blood of her Holy Son during her divine gestation. May her powerful prayers save all the unborn from the holocaust of abortion and assist us in the rapid spread of this devotion to all her children in the world in order to save as many souls as possible from the destructive power of the evil one. And to our beloved Pope John Paul II, of blessed memory, who warned us of the coming trials during his pontificate. Help us with your prayers to teach this devotion to the whole world before the fearful hour comes. Please intercede for us, for the safety of the Church and her people.

ous Blood Devotion Since the late 1990s a new devotion to the Precious Blood has been attracting devout Catholics all over the world: England, Scotland, Ireland, Singapore, Australia, Canada, France, Mexico, Panama, Philippines, Vietnam, South Korea, Venezuela, Colombia, Spain, Hungary, Puerto Rico, Haiti, Germany. Argentina, India, Brazil, Peru, Hong Kong, the USA and various countries of Africa. Prayerbooks are going out in a variety of languages. The prayers are directed toward repara- tion for the sins of our times, and for protection from the evils of our sinful world. Like myself, my immediate family, and thousands of others are drawn to the devotion through the prayers, not the messages. The prayerbooks cite only brief extracts from the “heavenly messages” which explain that the prayers came from heaven to a young Catholic man in Nigeria. The source of the devotion appears legitimate because both the Queenship © 2005 edition sold in Catholic bookstores, and the Tallahassee edition sold on the internet, bear a 1999 nihil obstat from the Archdiocese of Onistsha, Anambra State, Nigeria. The Queenship edition also features an imprimatur with full addresses of priests and prelates in Nigeria; a picture of Barnabas Nwoye with his bishop, his spiritual director, other priests and nuns, and some family members. This Barnabas is obviously seeking the Church’s guidance. The Church is obviously evaluating the messages and is already approving the prayers. Beautiful! Right? The Messages Overview of the Devotional Prayer Those familiar with the prayerbook may skip this section. This synopsis is taken from a blogger at www.pdtsigns.com The bulk of these messages have been received during exposition of the Blessed Sacrament in the visionary parish church of St. Joseph in Enugu State, Nigeria. The messages received are always vetted by Barnabas’ spiritual director (Rev. Boniface Onah) before being read out to those present during the apparitions. The messages of 1997-2000 were reviewed by a Theological Commission set up by Bishop Anthony Gbuji of Enugu State. They have received the nihil obstat of Rev. Fr. Stephen Obiukwu, Chairman of the Propagation of the Faith. The Devotion of All Devotions “My children, this Chaplet of the Precious Blood of My Son combines all the devotions of My Son’s Passion. In Heaven, this prayer is one of the greatest prayers that ceases the anger of the Eternal Father and bring mercy to the world.” [Our Blessed Mother, 29th January 1997] 1. The Chaplet This first component was given to Barnabas on the 5th July 1996. After witnessing the whole Passion of Our Lord from Gethsemane to the Resurrection, Jesus appeared to him and handed over a Chaplet honoring the Precious Blood. The Chaplet was strung like a Rosary except the decade was 12 beads long and red in color, while the beads separating the decades was white. The Chaplet, to be recited immediately after the Holy Rosary, consists of five mysteries relating to the five wounds of Christ. 2. Consolation The second component of the devotion was given on the 23rd June 1997; these prayers are specifically directed to the Eternal Father and His only begotten Son. This second part of the devotion seeks to appease the Father and Son, for the world’s ingrati- tude, blasphemies and neglects of the Precious Blood that take place in the church, in our lives or in society at large. 3. Adoration In the third part of this devotion, the Adoration prayers compromise of the seven prayers that adore, glorify and make petitions to the Precious Blood. Our Lord gave these prayers on the 23rd June 1997 along with the Consolation Prayers. The petitions are for the Catholic Church, its hierarchy, the clergy and the entire faithful. Appeals are also made on behalf unrepentant sinners, Holy Souls in Purgatory and aborted babies that they may be accorded to the benefits of the Precious Blood. 4. Reparation The fourth part of this devotion was dictated in a vision of the crucified Jesus, on 10th December 1998. In seven anguished appeals Jesus describes the sins, which have kept Him crucified mystically for the last 2000 years. This sins include grievances at Holy Mass, neglect of the Sacraments, immodesty in fashion, greed, avarice, lust, etc all causing millions to troop into Hell. This component consoles Blessed Trinity for the offences they are subjected to in this world.

Intercession The fifth part of the devotion is where special intercessory prayers called the ‘Mystical Prayers’ are recited. These are very effica- cious prayers taught by Our Lord during the month of July 1998. Our Lord revealed to Barnabas these prayers as being the very same prayers uttered by Him during His passion and final breath for humanity. There key intercessory prayers for the defect of the Antichrist, endurance during the chastisement, protection from the sin of the flesh and sustenance of faith. 6. The Seal From this devotion, Heaven has attached a precious and powerful gift for devotees of the Precious Blood. The seal is a spiritual mark, which Precious Blood devotees carry against the seal of 666. This seal gives the devotee a spiritual strength to resist all temp- tations of Satan and withstand the sufferings brought about by the Antichrist. The seal is achieved by the devotee remaining a state of sanctifying grace, especially in the periods specified by Our Lord when the Angels tour the earth to place it. 7. Gethsemane Hour Finally, Our Lord is calling on all his chosen to be with him every Thursday 11pm to Friday 3am (or at least one hour between this period). This is where all five components of the devotion are observed along with Holy Mass and Benediction (if possible). It is here that all devotees share in the agony felt by Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane. The intention is to obtain grace to endure the Great Chastisement and steadfastness in faith. The prayers, invocations, hymns and choruses that were dictated by Heaven to Barnabas Nwoye from 1997 to 2001 constitute the Precious Blood devotion. Each component was blessed by Jesus with graces that can be found in the official prayer manual. The prayers and promises have imprimatur of Rev. Dr. Ayo Maria, Bishop of Illorin Diocese, Kwara State, Nigeria ( June 17th 2000).

... Dr. Hahn, Dr. Hahn, was Jesus' sacrifice perfect, once-for-all, the righteous for the unrighteous? Or was it not?

[@shyakaxdeus2440]

what pained christ was wasted love by some souls(my thought).

[@simonslater9024]

I suppose Dr Hahn,you had bleep verses when you were protestant. I came to realise that when protestants have bleep verses that’s actually blasphemy! Also I realised that protestant denominations aren’t churches,because there’s only one-the holy Catholic Church,they are in fact cults! Praise Jesus and Mary always!!!

god allows suffering cos it leads to a greater good, so i cause as much suffering as possible cos it's so good. religion is silly, to say the least.
