Three different colors of the robes and what they mean ~ " I am no more of this world," he replied, "and I come here only in fulfilment of my promise." At these words Lutgarda fell on her knees and remained for some time quite confounded. Then, raising her eyes to her blessed friend, " Why," said she, " are you clothed in such splendour? What does this triple robe signify with which I see you adorned ? " " The white garment," he replied, " signifies virginal purity, which I have always preserved; the red tunic implies the labours and sufferings which have prematurely exhausted my strength ; and the blue mantle, which covers all, denotes the perfection of the spiritual life." Having said these words, he sud- denly left Lutgarda, who remained divided between regret for having lost so good a Father, and the joy she experienced on account of his happiness."
‘Pope Innocent III. …’ – ‘Purgatory’ by Rev. Shouppe; 1929; Chapter XXIII; p. 72-74, part II Chapter XXIII ~ Duration of Purgatory — The Cistercian Abbot and Pope Innocent III. — -John de Lierre. Aside from this, considering the event in itself, can we find any good reason for calling it into question ? Do we not know that God makes no exception of persons — that the Popes appear before His tribunal like the humblest of the faithful — that all the great and the lowly are equal before Him, and that each one receives according to his works? Do we not know that those who govern others have a great responsibility, and will have to render a severe account? Judicium durissimum his qui prcesunt fiet — "A most severe judgment shall be for them that bear rule."1 It is the Holy Ghost that declares it. Now, Innocent III. reigned for eighteen years, and during most turbulent times ; and, add the Bollandists, is it not written that the judgments of God are inscrutable, and often very different from …More
"In the Life of St. Lutgarda, written by her contemporary, Thomas de Cantempre mention is made of a Religious who was otherwise fervent, but who for an excess of zeal was condemned to forty years of Purgatory. This was an Abbot of the Cistercian Order, named Simon, who held St. Lutgarda in great veneration. The saint, on her part, willingly followed his advice, and in consequence a sort of spiritual friendship was formed between them. But the Abbot was not as mild towards his subordinates as he was towards the saint. Severe with himself, he was also severe in his administration,..."

In the Life of St. Lutgarda, written by her contemporary, Thomas de Cantempre mention is made of a Religious who was otherwise fervent, but who for an excess of zeal was condemned to forty years of Purgatory.

But the Abbot was not as mild towards his subordinates as he was towards the saint. Severe with himself, he was also severe in his administration, and carried his exactions in matters of discipline even to harshness, forgetting the lesson of the Divine Master, who teaches us to be meek and humble of heart.

"The Judge answered: ”You /the devil/ are not asking this out of love, since you have none, but my power compels you to ask it for the sake of this bride of mine who is listening. In the same way in which both the good and bad handled me in my human nature in order to prove the reality of my human nature as well as my patient humility, so too good and wicked alike eat me at the altar - the good unto their greater perfection, the bad in order that they may not believe themselves to be already damned and so that, having received my body, they might be converted, provided they decide to reform their intention. What greater love can I show them than that I, the most pure, will enter even the impurest of vessels (although like the material sun I cannot be defiled by anything)? You and your comrades despise this love, for you have hardened yourselves against love.”

Bebo’s FriendsSo Army Chief General Sir Roly says that the British Army is 'ready for war' and that the wider public must also be prepared to get involved and make sacrifices. Maybe he could start by teaching his soldiers how to march and wear their uniforms correctly? Embarrassing.

Tuesday, 26th August 1913: Franks Friends Hopeful Im Vindicated Lanford, The Atlanta Georgian The Atlanta Georgian, Tuesday, 26th August 1913, . Though he has been convicted or the most terrible crime in the history of the South, the friends who have stood steadfastly by Leo Frank during the four long months since Mary Phagan's body was found have not deserted him. They still persist that he is innocent and declare that time will uncover the guilty person and give the young factory superintendent his freedom. Rabbi David Marx, one of Frank's staunchest supporters, who has been with the convicted superintendent almost constantly since he was first arrested on suspicion of being connected with the crime, was one of the most surprised men in Atlanta when the verdict was returned. He had confidently expected an acquittal, but even with the sentence of death hanging over Frank's head, the devotion with which Rabbi Marx has stood by Frank-which has been the admiration even of those who believed …More
Bebo’s FriendsYou might have thought that Ukrainians took to the streets to protest for presidential elections and an end to the war... Nope. In fact, it seems they took to the streets (or were brought out by globalists—with a distinct whiff of Soros -#RESIST-style on them) because they were bothered by Klitschko a few days ago, when he raised some pertinent questions and made certain statements: Where is the air defense and the billions? At the same time, all you hear from these endless talk shows is that something is wrong in Kiev, or that something was done poorly. It's as if we're still living in 2019. You can say anything, blame Klitschko for anything, even WW3. But it's not just me who's asking: where is the air defense to protect the capital? Where is the protection for "Ukrenergo" facilities? Where are the billions allocated for this?
