2Mc 12:42:46





In any culture, race, tongue, and dogmas we can not take it for granted that our Loved ones are truly with God the Father in Heaven or another place we think will be peaceful and caring. This is truly a fallacy. Therefore, we all must have the heart as the King in 2 Mc 12:42-46:
Turning to supplication, they prayed that the sinful deed might be fully blotted out. The noble Judas warned the soldiers to keep themselves free from sin, for they had seen with their own eyes what had happened because of the sin of those who had fallen. He then took up a collection among all his soldiers, amounting to two thousand silver drachmas, which he sent to Jerusalem to provide for an expiatory sacrifice. In doing this he acted in a very excellent and noble way, inasmuch as he had the resurrection of the dead in view; for if he were not expecting the fallen to rise again, it would have been useless and foolish to pray for them in death. But if he did this with a view to the splendid reward that awaits those who had gone to rest in godliness, it was a holy and pious thought. Thus he made atonement for the dead that they might be freed from this sin.
Experience teaches us that there are people who die so suddenly, they have not had the opportunity to confess their sins, but are not guilty of serious "death dealing" sin and separation from God.

Therefore, I continue to personalty pray for all Losito's, Lupo's, DeViccicho's, Della Mora's, Celletti's, and Mother Ponce.
