It is true that there can be a zeal for the truth which is full of pride and which lacks charity but we must understand the relationship between truth and charity.
If we are to love our neighbor we must will the good to our neighbor. If we are to love God above all else, then we must will the highest good, the supreme good to God. But we cannot will the good if we do no know what the good is. We cannot love our neighbor if we have a wrong idea of what is best for him. We cannot love God if we do not know the truth about God.
To love the truth is a virtue that is getting more and more lost in our time.
LACK OF LOVE OF TRUTH IS A SIGN OF APOSTASY
Pope John Paul II said that there is a silent apostasy in our time. And that is because there is a lack of love of truth.Scripture tells us that the Great apostasy must come before the Antichrist comes; but before you have the Great apostasy, you must have the loss of the love for truth. Father Nicholas Gruner
In the little village of Fatima, Portugal, an apparitiion of the Blessed Virgin Mary occurred to three little shepherds. The story has been told throughout the earth. The story about the sun. How it spun on its axis twirling around casting rainbow lights upon the villagers below who could look at the sun without hurting their eyes.
This was an earth shattering event of biblical proportions. The sun danced. Then it stopped and appeared to leave its place in the heavens and spin down ... down on the frightened people, spinning all out of control, having left its place in the heavens.
Some could be heard reciting their Act of Contrition. Some couldn't even speak for the sheer terror of the thing. It was a miracle! It was proof of the truth of the message of Fatima.
How do we know it was true? The secular press was there in mockery and not only wrote it up, but took pictures. They were astonished. The editor of O Saecula, the newspaper of the day in Fatima Portugal on October 13, 1917, published by Masonic men, believed it.
But, those with faith did not need the press of the time. 7,000 of them came, trudging through the mud with rain soaked clothes, spending the night in prayer in a field. Their faith was rewarded and strengthened when their clothes were perfectly dry after the great miracle, and, there were those who threw their crutches down, while the colors of the rainbow were cast over them by heaven, changing the colors of their skin, dancing about on their woolen clothing. Oh! how they believed!
Now the events prophesied by Our Lady, the Queen of Prophets, have come to pass. All has come to pass as the Book of Revelation notes.
In that same time frame Lenin entered Russia and the revolution was on!
The war of ideas has threaded its path throughout all the countries causing wars and more wars.
Just like She said. Communism has spread its' red curtains down and across the earth. It is draped over the Popes and the Bishops. It is a poisonous idealogue which they are allowing themselves to be governed by ... the war of ideas is blazing and we the people can hear and smell the gunpowder!
There is no hope but to turn to the truth.
"What is truth" said Pontius Pilate.
He didn't realize that he was standing next to It.
Now 'Truth' wants the human race to turn to Mary for salvation through her to Him.
The Secret of Fatima told to the little shepherds is here and those who know it, and should care... have fallen silent.
We are the victims of their failure to love the truth. We pray for them.
