Harpa Dei

Lk 7, 36-50 One of the Pharisees invited him to a meal. When he arrived at the Pharisee’s house and took his place at table, suddenly a woman came in, who had a bad name in the town. She had heard he was dining with the Pharisee and had brought with her an alabaster jar […]

1 Cor 12,31-13,13 Though I command languages both human and angelic – if I speak without love, I am no more than a gong booming or a cymbal clashing. And though I have the power of prophecy, to penetrate all mysteries and knowledge, and though I have all the faith necessary to move mountains –

“Concluding remarks” If we consider the four basic frameworks that we listed in yesterday’s reflection, we have a good starting point to resist the threat of the Antichrist. Once again, let us remember: Unequivocal church doctrine, unambiguous morality, true mission and ardent pursuit of holiness. In addition, there are certain prayers that should not be

“Basic armor for resistance against anti-Christian powers” This is the penultimate reflection on the Antichrist in the context of daily meditations. I know very well that many questions are still open and need further study. That is why I will point out again tomorrow in the last meditation that the continuation of this theme will

“The Antichrist according to Robert Benson and Michael D. O Brian” We continued the topic with two other authors. The contribution of Robert Benson, an English priest, who wrote the book: “The Lord of the World”, I will only briefly summarize, because I already reported in more detail in the daily meditations on May 20th,

“Short Story of the Antichrist of Soloviev” Today we take a look at how the Antichrist is portrayed in the literature I know. He is described primarily as a political figure gifted with an extraordinary charisma, offering solutions to the pressing political and social problems! From the Antichrist as I have found him in literature

“The Antichrist and many Antichrists, testimony of the Holy Scriptures” The coming of an Antichrist at the end of the times before the return of Christ is expected by watchful Christians who know the Holy Scriptures and the relevant passages. In the literature we also know references to the adversary of Christ. Sacred Scripture speaks
