Barron is primarily in show business and entrepreneurship, and these strongly influence how he approaches what he excels in, namely authoritarianism tarted up as magisterial credibility and catechetical indoctrination moonlighting as Catholicism. He’s a shallow ideolog.
What is his rationale? I mean like who sent the rain that ended the drought directly after elijah killed the sodomite priests? Seems Barron has God confused w/VC2 Queenie Jezebel.

1 After many days the word of the Lord came to Elias, in the third year, saying: Go and shew thyself to Achab, that I may give rain upon the face of the earth... Achab came to meet Elias. 17 And when he had seen him, he said: Art thou he that troublest Israel? 18 And he said: I have not troubled Israel, but thou and thy father's house, who have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and have followed Baalim... 40 And Elias said to them: Take the prophets of Baal, and let not one of them escape. And when they had taken them, Elias brought them down to the torrent Cison, and killed them there.
41 And Elias said to Achab: Go up, eat, and drink: for there is a sound of abundance of rain. 42 Achab went up to eat and drink: and Elias went up to the top of Carmel, and casting himself down upon the earth put his face between his knees, 43 And he said to his servant: Go up, and look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said: There is nothing. And again he said to him: Return seven times. 44 And at the seventh time, behold, a little cloud arose out of the sea like a man's foot. And he said: Go up and say to Achab: Prepare thy chariot and go down, lest the rain prevent thee. 45 And while he turned himself this way and that way, behold the heavens grew dark, with clouds, and wind, and there fell a great rain. And Achab getting up went away to Jezrahel: 46 And the hand of the Lord was upon Elias, and he girded up his loins and ran before Achab, till he came to Jezrahel. 1 And Achab told Jezabel all that Elias had done, and how he had slain all the prophets with the sword. 2 And Jezabel sent a messenger to Elias, saying: Such and such things may the gods do to me, and add still more, if by this hour tomorrow I make not thy life as the life of one of them. 3 Kings 18, 19:1-2 (Protestant 1 Kings) https://www.drbo.org/chapter/11018.htm
"When he resisted God’s will and sought to justify himself, Elijah was summarily fired; when Elijah put his mantle over the shoulders of Elisha, Elisha dropped everything and followed the will of God.

Seems fairy barry hasn't read the 4th book of Kings Chapter 1 where Elias calls down fire to incinerate 102 soldiers of another beelzebub consulting ruler:
9 And he sent to him a captain of fifty, and the fifty men that were under him. And he went up to him, and as he was sitting on the top of a hill, said to him: Man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down. 10 And Elias answering, said to the captain of fifty: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee, and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him, and the fifty that were with him. And again he sent to him another captain of fifty men, and his fifty with him. And he said to him: Man of God, thus saith the king: Make haste and come down. 12 Elias answering, said: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And fire came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty. 13 Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him. And when he was come, he fell upon his knees, before Elias, and besought him and said: Man of God, despise not my life, and the lives of thy servants that are with me. 14 Behold fire came down from heaven, and consumed the two first captains of fifty men, and the fifties that were with them: but now I beseech thee to spare my life. 15 And the angel of the Lord spoke to Elias, saying: Go down with him, fear not. He arose therefore, and went down with him to the king,
16 And said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast sent messengers to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron, as though there were not a God in Israel, of whom thou mightest inquire the word; therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die. 17 So he died according to the word of the Lord which Elias spoke, 4 Kings 1 https://www.drbo.org/chapter/12001.htm

Indeed Prolix 'Cut and Paste' Nemo 3:50/3:56 PM, why, why, why? Why does the sun still come up in the morning? Why does the Moon sometimes not shine? Why does Bonker claim that the election was stolen? Why do you not read the New Testament or are you one of those Jimmy Swaggart OT christians?
Dear Dick Vogel, I read the NT that's why I'm not understanding how Elijah was fired since it is Elijah not Elias who shows up in the NT--not as a fired prophet, but as a working prophet. So I repeat: If Elijah was fired, why was he taken up to heaven w/out dying like the rest of us (seems a further mission is in store for him which isn't 'fired')? Why did Jesus refer to St. John the Baptist as Elijah? Why was Elijah the prophet at the Transfiguration? He is said to be one of the two witnesses in Revelation 11.
The one who should be fired is Fairy Barry. Maybe all those gentlemen who spent so much time and effort taking down Rosica and Voris could turn some attention to blasting this pervert off the blogosphere.
" Dear Dick Vogel, I read the NT" So you say, Prolix Nemo 5:58 AM. While doing so, did you find any mention of Jesus? If you did, you might have thought about stressing the centrality of Jesus to the mission of the Church as opposed to Showboat Barron who thinks he and the Catechism of the Catholic Church are at the center of Divine Revelation.
He's not, of course, but he is big time into the entertainment, entrepreneurship and narcissism.
Barron isn’t full on board with team Francis, but he could be, probably because Barron’s audience can’t swallow Bergoglio’s cheap 1960’s anti-American, South American Marxism.

Family connections aside, how what qualifies Barron to be a priest, not even to ask about swishop?
ReplyDeleteHe sounds like FOG (Friend of Gaybriels). Not saying he is a Gaybriel, or even Gaybriel himself, oh, no.

ReplyDeleteBarron is an ideological mud wrestler.
