St Joseph and the Mystery of Christmas

God gives special graces to those whom He elects for special missions. After the role of the Mother of God, the most important office in God’s Plan is the role of St. Joseph: father to the Christ Child and protector of His most chaste mother. St. Joseph was born free of original sin, never committed actual sin, and made a vow of celibacy. After a time in Limbo, his body was assumed into Heaven. The Incarnation (Christmas) was always in the Mind of the God. Thus, He eternally predestined that His Son have a true Mother and a holy guardian. It is fitting that we honor Mary with hyperdulia and St. Joseph with protodulia. For more please visit www.reginaprophetarum.org & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest

61 years as a Catholic and I never knew the Advent candles as Prophets of the Incarnation! Or the devotion to the Three Hearts! Thank you for your Holy teachings in this Holy Season.

[@AveCorMariam]

Devotion to St. Joseph surely brings great miracles !

[@SuperGreatSphinx]

"We should, indeed, honor Saint Joseph, since the Son of God Himself was graciously pleased to honor him by calling him father. The Holy Scriptures speak of him as the father of Jesus. 'His father and mother were marveling at the things spoken - concerning Him' (Luke 2:33). Mary also used this name: 'in sorrow thy father and I have been seeking thee' (Luke 2:48). If, then, the King of Kings was pleased to raise Joseph to so high a dignity, it is right and obligatory on our part to endeavor to honor him as much as we can." - Saint Alphonsus Liguori

[@peskyjesuit9021]

My priest is from Nigeria. I love the guy but he is very hard to understand and I have had to train myself to listen so carefully that I leave church tired. I could listen to this guy all day long.

[@pangelinguagloriosi1]

[@markhamer1628]

Thank you , so where I attend Latin mass has a statue of saint Joseph. He stands there with a wooden beam in front of him, he has an axe in his hand and the beams bark is half stripped down. What I got from that is , This is what God allows to happen to our hearts, pruning and taking away our useless and rough edges, we are the beams of the church He is building. Many times it seems God is hacking away our lichen and poisonous grooves, Good St Joseph I ask for you to intercede and ask God to hack away at the useless superficial junk I hold tightly onto in my life. Please help others who read this to do the same.

[@lindalanderos3952]

Beautiful and it all adds up to create a Holy Family for our Lord Jesus to grow up in and a very important place in heaven after Saint Joseph's passing on. Pope Francis has a figure of St. Joseph sleeping and dreaming and he writes little notes asking for advise while he too sleeps. We do it also and thank him for loving and obeying God in taking care of His Son Jesus and Holy Mother Mary and that we may be blessed like the Holy Family. 👐💖🕊💒⛪🙏🌹📿🌹🇲🇽

[@mistyviolet3825]

I don’t think I’ve heard from this priest in a while

[@mpm5035]

Oh, St. Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God. I place in you all my interests and desires. Oh, St. Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession, and obtain for me from your divine Son all spiritual blessings, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. So that, having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers.Oh, St. Joseph, I never weary of contemplating you, and Jesus asleep in your arms; I dare not approach while He reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine head for me and ask him to return the Kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, Patron of departing souls - Pray for me This prayer was found in the fiftienth year of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. In 1505 it was sent from the Pope to Emperor Charles when he was going into battle. Whoever shall read this prayer or hear it or keep it about themselves, shall never die a sudden death, or be drowned, not shall posion take effect of them; neither shall they fall into the hands of the enemy; or shall be burned in any fire, or shall be overpowered in battle. Say for nine mornings for anything you may desire. It has never been known to fail, so be sure you really want what you ask.

[@mottledbrain]

Thank you Maria for posting that. I gave my daughter a holy card a couple of decades or so ago with that prayer and history. I've always loved that prayer to my first patron saint. Dominus tecum, Reg +JMJ

[@larrywethington3175]

Most beautiful talk. However, in THE MYSTICAL CITY OF GOD it says the stick was placed in the hand of each one...St. Joseph's blossomed and the dove lighted on his head. And he was 33 years old. Mary was 14. Also, how would you prove by nature Mary outshone all others together? St. Alphonsus in THE GLORIES OF MARY said the sun represents the Son of God, and the moon represents Mary, who enightens those in the darkness of sin. And the moon outshines all the stars put together. Praise be Jesus and Mary. Now and forever.

[@blueskygal255]

Why do others teach Joseph was a widower/father? Not that that's bad, just wjere did they get that perspective? Where do Catholics get this one? I'm learning about the Saints and Nary of course. New to all this, currently in RCIA, and was LDS for 36 years, then born again to Jesus as a happily (protestant) non denominational christian for 15 years and now I'm here.

[@pedrogameiro742]

question, is this anywhere in the bible? can someone answer me? thank you.

Does anyone know the name of this priest?

Father Shannon . He has over 100 homilies on a site of his own enjoy Merry Christmas Viva christo Rey

[@zwijac]

This is a very nice story, but can we assume that it is indeed just a story? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but.... No time over the last two thousand years did the church ever teach that Joseph was born without original sin or that he was assumed into heaven. Right? In fact, the church has always taught that Mary is the only person to whom those attributes apply. So how is this priest preaching in direct opposition to what the church has always taught? So...... what are we to think of what this priest is saying? It is literally in no way compliant with any church teaching since the Inception of the church itself.

[@mottledbrain]

Merry Christmas! I was wondering the same thing so I did a "quick and dirty" search (that's a term an old boss once used) for info. I only started to read the following which deals with St. Joseph's assumption. It *may* help. www.remnantnewspaper.com/Archives/2011-0315-st-joseph.htm

[@jongricafort4]

I had a question...can you name a reference wherein you source & stated that St. Joseph was born without original sin...what does it mean?..thanks & God bless!

[@allenallen5774]

If he was born without original sin why did he spent time in limbo?

Allen Allen st Joseph? Bc heaven wasn’t opened yet. Nobody entered heaven till Our Lord ascended

[@nawalkishoryadav9639]

What was real language of Bible Book

[@USABeauboy]

:)

[@GiacomoLockhart]

You also fail to recount the very important fact that St Joseph was Crown Prince of Juda, in the direct line from King David and King Jesse, albeit dispossessed of that kingdom, and thus that our Lord was not only spiritually King of the Jews but physically, too, his father being Crown Prince of Juda. Our Lady, too, was a princess of Juda, being directly descended from David and Jesse - the Root of Jesse. Both St Joseph and our Lady lived in poverty but they were known to be of the line of David and, if the Kingdom of Juda were ever restored, they would be King and Queen thereof. They were the original dispossessed royal family but God had even greater plans for them, as they knew and as God had revealed to them, for they were to be the parents of the King of Heaven, the Messiah Himself. In missing these facts out, you do not accord the full honour due to St Joseph and our Lady.

[@GiacomoLockhart]

Wrong. Our Lord said: "Amen I say to you, there hath not risen among them that are born of women a greater than John the Baptist" [Matt 11.11]. Thus St John the Baptist is above St Joseph and St Joseph would be the first to tell you that, if you would but listen. That, too, is why the liturgy always places St John the Baptist before St Joseph. In addition, St Joseph WAS much older than the Blessed Virgin - all the visionaries confirm this. According to Blessed Anna Catherine Emmerich, he was about 45 when he married the Blessed Virgin and she was about 16. WILL YOU AMERICANS PLEASE STOP TRYING TO RE-WRITE THE GOSPEL STORY?

[@jefffinkbonner9551]

It sure was interesting when he said how the 4 advent candles stand for the 4 millennia between Adam and Eve and the birth of Jesus. This priest has repeatedly denounced evolution, and, I'd like to believe that, but what would he say to ALL of the evidence that the human species is a bit older than 6,000 years? Not to mention the rest of creation.

[@barrymcgrath4303]

Jeff Finkbonner There is no 24hr day in the Genesis account. Evolution implies that humans are nothing more than sophisticated apes if that's true why do stupid apes not cause world war? The science of the evolution is incomplete with missing links even those who advocate the concept say that.

[@jaspermay5813]

Hi Jeff Finkbonner. There is much evidence that the human species and all of creation is around 6000 years old, and no evidence that it is older. Please have a look at the articles by the Kolbe Center for the Study of Creation at www.kolbecenter.org .

[@tonibuckler8210]

Go to Kolbe Center for Creation online and even at this site. They debunk evolution and old earth "hypothesis" and false science.

[@rubengarcia4575]

where's Joseph when God got crucifixion

[@allanlindsay8369]

Hello Nope Nope, greetings. As far as anybody knows and what our Holy Church accepts is that St Joseph had passed on. The likelihood was he older than Our Blessed Lady and he had fulfilled perfectly what God had required of him.

[@ewankerr3011]

What a story! Yes, what a story, as that is what it is. We begin by reading the Word of the Lord. So why not actually read what it says. NOTHING about this story. Indeed ,what it does say is something very different : In St Mathew's gospel, chapter 13 :53-56, it tells us of Jesus returning to his home town and the people being astonished at his teaching. " Is not his mother the woman called Mary and his brothers ( Greek adelphoi) James and Joseph and Simon and Jude? His sisters (adelphai)too. are they not all here with us?"The New Catholic Encyclopedia (1967, Vol 1X, p337 admits that the Greek words used "have the meaning of full blood brother and sister in the Greek speaking world of the Evangelist's time and would naturally be taken by his Greek reader in this sense."Of course it is NOT his cousins, the text is obvious. When what is meant is not brothers but relatives, a different Greek word , syggenon, is used as at St Luke, 21 : 16.Consider also the account at St Mark, chapter 3, verses 31-35. Here, his mother and brothers turn up outside and this is told to Jesus. But, looking at his disciples, he says:"Here are my mother and my brothers. Anyone that does the will of God, that person is my brother and sister and mother."This passage only works if it really is his mother and brothers outside, otherwise it makes no sense. Don't be fooled by later Church traditions and teachings. But be careful, actually reading the New Testament can be harmful to your faith
