Helpful Ways Christians Can Maintain Purity in a Sex-Obsessed World...

EXAMPLE OF QUEEN OF HEAVEN
"The world must follow the example of the Queen of Heaven. Modesty, purity of heart and purpose."
- St. Michael, December 7, 1973

SACRED TEMPLE OF GOD
"Impress, My child, upon your world the existence of hell that man seeks to deny. There are fires of hell. These fires will be felt on those who have lost their modesty to modernization, who expose the sacred temple of God, placed when their spirit entered their body—expose them to ridicule! The flames will burn every inch of that which is exposed."
- Our Lady, November 20, 1971

"A thorough cleansing must be made within the House of God--the Church. Women shall not receive My Son dressed as pagans, naked and without absolution! " - Our Lady of the Roses, December 31, 1974

The above Messages from Our Lady were given to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, New York. Read more

LifeSiteNews.com reported on September 24, 2019:

by Peter Kwasniewski

In an earlier post at LifeSite, I spoke about the crucial place a Catholic should give to frequent Holy Communion for the preservation and strengthening of chastity — on the assumption, of course, that whoever is approaching the communion rail is, to the best of his knowledge, in a state of grace, having brought any mortal sin to Confession beforehand.

The reason we benefit so much from Communion is that we come into contact with the holy, pure, immaculate, and life-giving Flesh of Christ, the virginal High Priest who placed His Father’s will above all earthly enticements and goods, however great they are (or seem to be). From His Sacred Heart, the burning furnace of charity, we receive the strength of will, the determination of purpose, the restraint of passion, the calm of mind, to seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, rather than deviating along the way.

If we fall into sin, moreover, we know that God has not abandoned us, but has permitted this stumbling for our humiliation and the stirring up of the spirit of repentance, without which no fallen human being will be saved. Even those who are far advanced along the way of perfection in charity must sorrow for their sins and the sins of the whole world. Indeed, as we see in the lives of the saints, it is the most perfect who feel most sharply the ingratitude of even the lightest of venial sins in comparison to the immensity of God’s goodness.

The spiritual masters teach that those who conquer sins of the flesh often fall into more subtle vices — above all, pride at being free from lesser sins! — and that the Lord, knowing their danger, will at times permit them to yield to a sin they thought they had conquered. In this way, He teaches them multiple lessons at once: (1) their virtue is not exclusively their own work, but comes first and foremost from God, whom they must humbly beseech for it; (2) pride goeth before a fall, as Scripture says, and those whom God favors with graces must ask even more insistently for humility; (3) the thorn of disordered concupiscence will stick in our flesh until the moment the soul is torn from the body, so we should not be naïve in our thoughts or actions.

As great as the power of the sacraments is — no power is greater in this world of ours! — they are not the only aids provided for us by the mercy of God. The Lord has empowered His Church to institute what we call “sacramentals,” which the Catechism of the Catholic Church defines as “sacred signs which bear a resemblance to the sacraments” that “signify effects, particularly of a spiritual nature, which are obtained through the intercession of the Church. By them men are disposed to receive the chief effect of the sacraments, and various occasions in life are rendered holy” (n. 1667).

Sacramentals are instituted for the sanctification of certain ministries of the Church, certain states of life, a great variety of circumstances in Christian life, and the use of many things helpful to man. In accordance with bishops’ pastoral decisions, they can also respond to the needs, culture, and special history of the Christian people of a particular region or time. … Sacramentals do not confer the grace of the Holy Spirit in the way that the sacraments do, but by the Church’s prayer, they prepare us to receive grace and dispose us to cooperate with it. (nn. 1668, 1670)

Thus, we should not be surprised to find that Holy Mother Church has instituted several sacramentals intended to help us in preserving chastity.

The one I have been using for many years is the Cord of Purity of the Angelic Warfare Confraternity. It consists of a blessed white knotted cord one wears about one’s waist as both a reminder that one’s body belongs to Christ and as a silent appeal for grace in the battle for purity. This practice is derived from the original cord that St. Thomas Aquinas was given by angels after he drove away a prostitute with a fiery brand (the approach of “dialogue” was, evidently, not popular back then). To this day, the Dominicans are in charge of the Confraternity and have set up a useful website about how to be enrolled in it. I really cannot recommend this too highly. Many saintly people — including St. Aloysius Gonzaga, Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, Blessed Columba Rieti, and Blessed Stephana Quinzan — have belonged to this Confraternity.

Other sacramentals with the same purpose exist in our Catholic tradition. One is the Cord of St. Philomena. (To read more about St. Philomena and devotion to her, read this excellent sermon from a priest of the Fraternity of St. Peter.) A brief summary of the cord may be found here, and the cord itself purchased here or here. Another is St. Joseph’s Cincture, about which Fisheaters provides ample information. I have seen mention of the White Cord of St. Francis as well, though it seems much less popular than the aforementioned cords.

The Catholic tradition is practically bursting at the seams with devotions, so we must not let ourselves get overwhelmed by the choices available to us. Because they all enjoy the blessing of the Church and have proved themselves effective over a long span of time, we may freely choose any of them, without the need to collect and combine as many sacramentals as possible. The most important thing is that we become aware of the helps placed at our disposal — this would include the crucifix, holy water, the rosary, the St. Benedict medal, the Brown Scapular, other scapulars, and the chastity cords — and make a point of using at least some of them consistently. It is very important, too, that whatever sacramentals you use be blessed by a priest using the Roman Ritual, which actually blesses the objects, instead of the Book of Blessings, which merely says nice things about them and us.

I would like to conclude with a note sent to me by a young man, writing to me about his experience of the Cord of St. Philomena.

I have found this very helpful against temptation. Sometimes we are not even aware of the difference it makes to carry or wear a blessed item on our person, but this one, I have to say, was really noticeable in its effects on my thoughts and feelings. Why is it not more talked about? Why don’t chaplains give them to students more frequently, given the plague of unchastity in schools? I sometimes feel there is a failure on the part of those who should be talking about the wonderful treasures of the Church — not you, but others — and a failure of young Catholics to have or even know about what could help to save their souls.

I couldn’t agree more.

Holy Mary, Virgin Most Pure, Virgin Most Chaste, pray for us!

St. Joseph, Chaste Spouse of the Mother of God, pray for us!

St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Philomena: pray for us!

Our Lady of the Roses awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.

A  WAY  OF  LIFE
"I ask that a task force be set upon the world to eliminate the products of the forces of evil that seek to debase, destroy the souls of your children. Remove from your homes the corrupters of souls: the pornography, the infernal box—your television—and the destructor of souls, modesty and purity—the nakedness of the body.
   "Parents, you shall be judged for the destruction by permissiveness, of your children's souls. Clothe them in goodness, holiness, and piety, and make modesty a way of life for the young." - Our Lady, August 21, 1975

EXAMPLE  OF  QUEEN  OF  HEAVEN
"The world must follow the example of the Queen of Heaven. Modesty, purity of heart and purpose." - St. Michael, December 7, 1973 

SACRED TEMPLE OF GOD
"Impress, My child, upon your world the existence of hell that man seeks to deny. There are fires of hell. These fires will be felt on those who have lost their modesty to modernization, who expose the sacred temple of God, placed when their spirit entered their body—expose them to ridicule! The flames will burn every inch of that which is exposed." - Our Lady, November 20, 1971 

AS BEFITS A WIFE AND MOTHER
"Women shall not approach the sacred Body dressed as pagans, exposing the temples of their spirit to shame! Cover yourselves, My children, or you will burn!
   "I repeat: women will dress as befits a wife and mother, clothing themselves with modesty and holiness. Children will follow the example of their parents. Therefore, if your example is poor, your children will be your thorns. The sins of the parents are surely visited upon the children." - Our Lady, March 18, 1975 

ARE YOU PAGANS?
"Parents, how dare you allow your daughters to be looked upon with lustful eyes! Have you no shame? What is your example? Are you pagans?" - Our Lady, May 30, 1972 

DO NOT LEAD YOUR CHILD INTO DANGER!
"Mothers, why are you permissive with your children? Do you not recognize the plan of satan? Do you wish lustful eyes cast upon the innocence of your young child? Do not lead your child into danger!" - Our Lady, June 8, 1972 

CHAIN  OF  EVIL
"Foolish virgins! Why do you choose to live in this world of earth? Have you become blind to modesty? Has vanity invaded your hearts? Woe to those who cause the downfall of Our dedicated by their examples. You are all following the evil circle, My dedicated; for it is like a chain of evil, link by link. By your example you build a solid chain to hell. For woe to those entrusted with the souls of the little ones, and who lead the little ones to hell!" - Our Lady, November 21, 1970 

SAFEGUARD  THEIR  PURITY
"As parents your duty is manifold. You must teach your children within your homes. You must safeguard their purity. Modesty! Mothers, your daughters—do you permit them to expose their flesh to lustful eyes? Are you stripping from their young souls modesty and purity of purpose and spirit? What kind of example are you giving as parents in your homes?" - Our Lady, October 2, 1975 

PERMISSIVE ATTITUDESakedness! Abomination! Aberrations have become the way of life in your country. Nakedness! Have you no shame to expose your body and cause another to fall? Mothers, you allow your daughters to sin and cause others to sin in your permissive attitudes. Have you no protective instincts for your children? Do you subject them willfully to the ravages of satanic agents?" - Our Lady, March 25, 1972

EYES:  MIRROR  OF  YOUR  SOUL
"Modesty must be retained. Modesty must be taught to the young. Keep pure and holy thoughts in your minds and the minds of your children, for your eyes are also the mirror of your soul." - Jesus, May 18, 1977 

"CHASTITY",  "MODESTY"
"You see, My child, you use the word 'Marylike,' but the word is truly 'chastity,' 'modesty.' It is a word, chastity, the word modesty, soon forgotten on your earth." - Our Lady, June 15, 1974

There are 4 Things You Must Have to Survive the End Times:

1.) The Douay-Rheims Holy Bible...

"I ask that all who hear My voice will take their Bibles, and if they do not have one, search, but find the right Bible, those printed not after 1965, My children." -  Jesus, October 5, 1985
     "You must all obtain a copy of the Book of life and love, the Bible. Do not accept the new mods. Try to find in your bookstores the old Bibles, My children, for many are being changed to suit the carnal nature of man.  I repeat, sin has become a way of life." - Our Lady, October 6, 1992  
    "I must ask you all to read but a few short chapters a day now, the Book of life and love, your Bible. Knowledge must be gained for all the disciples of My Son, for you will be attacked by scientific minds. But do not be concerned what you will say to them when accosted, for the words will be given to you by the Spirit." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976 
    The Douay-Rheims Bible was published in 1899.  It is the official Bible of the Roman Catholic Church.  Almost all other Bibles have been rewritten by Satan.   See: https://www.tldm.org/directives/d33.htmhttps://www.tldm.org/directives/d415.htm and https://www.tldm.org/directives/d182.htm   If you don't have a Douay-Rheims Bible order it now!  (Order Form)  Yours and your loved ones salvation could depend on it. 
    Read the Bible cover to cover.  If you read 4 chapters a day, you will complete the whole Bible in 334 days.  I have read the Bible 2 times and working on the third time.  A 75 year old Baptism gentleman told me that he and his wife have read the Bible nine times.  Wow!

Insist even with obstructions, insist that your children always wear a sacramental. One day they will understand that they will repel the demons."
    On February 1, 1974, Our Lady said, "My children, know the value of these sacramentals. Guard your children well. You must awaken to the knowledge that you will not be protected without the sacramentals. Guard your children's souls. They must be surrounded with an aura of purity. Remove them if necessary from the sources of contamination, be it your schools or even false pastors."
