The Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ

Jesus Nativity

The Twenty-fifth Day of December,
when ages beyond number had run their course
from the creation of the world,
when God in the beginning created heaven and earth,
and formed man in his own likeness;
when century upon century had passed
since the Almighty set his bow in the clouds after the Great Flood,
as a sign of covenant and peace;
in the twenty-first century since Abraham, our father in faith,
came out of Ur of the Chaldees;
in the thirteenth century since the People of Israel were led by Moses
in the Exodus from Egypt;
around the thousandth year since David was anointed King;
in the sixty-fifth week of the prophecy of Daniel;
in the one hundred and ninety-fourth Olympiad;
in the year seven hundred and fifty-two
since the foundation of the City of Rome;
in the forty-second year of the reign of Caesar Octavian Augustus,
the whole world being at peace,

JESUS CHRIST, eternal God and Son of the eternal Father,
desiring to consecrate the world by his most loving presence,
was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
and when nine months had passed since his conception,
was born of the Virgin Mary in Bethlehem of Judah,
and was made man:
The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ according to the flesh.

 

Merry Christmas to all my readers!

    Merry Christmas, Brian.

    Not sure if you saw but a woman in the UK was arrested for silently praying outside an abortion clinic. With Merrick Garland as AG, Soros-back prosecutors, and turncoats in the GOP, it’s only a matter of time before these policies are enforced in the US. Considering that people praying the mass during COVID were arrested, it’s arguably already arrived.

    Veni, veni Emmanuel!
    Captivum solve Israel!
    Qui gemit in exilio,
    Privatus Dei Filio.

    Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel
    nascetur pro te, Israel

      I heard about that. Dreadful.

      Ireland’s occupation government has also passed laws forbidding praying the Rosary within a certain distance of an abortion clinic, though I am not aware of anyone who has yet been prosecuted under said laws.
