The Problem With Trusting Broken Cisterns
A broken cistern has sprung a leak and can't hold water. God is our Living Water.
Jeremiah 2:13
“My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.”
St. John of the Cross and Broken Cisterns of the soul, we leak out God, we fill up with the Holy Spirit then leak out again and the level of Possession of God by our soul decreases. Our inordinate passions cause this. Our desires for things other than God cause the leak. The desire for the red corvette, the food delicacies, pleasures that are forbidden by the will of God.
Result is we lose God literally see, Eli, Phineas and Hophni and the Arc of the Covenant sought by Indiana Jones.
See “Lord of the Rings”, the desire for the ring turns the becoming young man into an ugly creature mad with desire.
Avoid the logic of a popular Bishop Barron who tells us that the “Polls” show these scandals do not affect the reason the young are leaving the Church, why the Church is bleeding youth, is some other reason than these scandals. These scandals are our history worth remembering. That is why the Holy Spirit gave us the history of Eli, think (ArchBishop) and his sons Phineas, and Hophni ( priests) they are history worth remembering.
In the biblical narrative, priests Hophni and Phinehas are criticized for engaging in illicit behavior, such as appropriating the best portion of sacrifices for themselves, and having sinful sexual relations. Eli, the chief priest, was their Father and was indifferent to the sins of his sons.
Two responses to Bishop Barron: First, the “POLLS” are not our Teacher, we do not marry secular culture. Jesus Christ is our teacher, and we were made to Unite with God, marry our creator; And permit me a guess, the only reason our leaders do not tell the “POLLS” they are errant if they profess to be our teacher, and instead that we are to be taught by God and marry God is perhaps, due to cowardice?
In the time of St John of the Cross, there was a man as popular as Bishop Barron, he was a stigmatist and St John of the Cross, took his young brothers who were in training to become priests to see the stigmatist, because they needed to support to their faith, with this extraordinary phenomena, although Friar John never entered the hut of the stigmatist wanting instead his Faith to be pure and unsupported by these extraordinary phenomena. We know today about this Friar John we know him as St John of the Cross, we know nothing of the stigmatist, he is lost to history and not a canonized saint. Be careful about following influential forces and people of the day, they disappear in the sands of time. Transform yourself as your God wills it not as others see you, and wish for you.
Some will say, Today, we are again, fighting over the body of Moses, and we know there were only two combatants in that struggle, the Arc Angel Michael and Lucifer, prince of the underworld, known today as satan. There is enmity today between the offspring of the woman and the offspring of the snake. Which side are you going to be on?
