And we’re all praying that the RCs start rightly dividing the word of truth ASAP.

Amen! More of my Latin brethren need to be familiar with the written Word of God, so that they do not fall prey either to the sin of modernism or to the smooth lies of heresy.

As a side note, did you know that scripture reading is an indulgenced act?

Yup.

According to "The Enchiridion of Indulgences" it sure is (#50). (Of course, a person must be properly disposed to receive the indulgence...)

I'm happy you're reading Scripture, but that sentence does not compute as it has no foundation in Scripture.

In fact, it is expressly contraindicated in Scripture since all the sins of Christ's flock already have been forgiven by the one-time, perfect, accomplished sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.

"When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee." -- Mark 2:5

"And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses" -- Colossians 2:13

Read Hebrews, Mark, and learn of your redemption by Christ.

Why doesn't your church tell you this good news?
