How is a road dedication by a priest different from a dedication by the average believing evangelical?

 

There is a lot of talk on the internet about the dedication of roads by gentlemen in cassocks with the color of death, buildings and even once I came across the dedication of a septic tank.

 

 

For people to get well...

🙂

 

And seriously, does it make any sense to ordain the way and how is that different from the actions of Christ-followers, evangelicals?

Catholics see it as some kind of incantation, a one-time miraculous act. The problem is that such sacrifice, despite the money spent, accomplishes nothing. Why? What is the difference between these religions?

Well, an evangelical, if he is a follower of Jesus will try to drive safely and culturally on the roads, out of love for others and fear of God. However, this Catholic love (There are 85% Catholics in Poland) can be seen especially during holidays, when statistics report:

 

 

2017

From Friday (22.12) to Tuesday (26.12) on Polish roads there were 373 accidents, in which as many as 42 people died. 447 people were injured.

From Friday to Tuesday, police officers stopped as many as 883 intoxicated drivers!

So many caught, yet the police are not able to put out patrols in every village.

So what is the point of ordaining roads or buildings if we do not use these goods with wisdom and love?

None.

I, along with the process of converting to God and leaving the church of Rome, to which I have no intention of returning as evangelicals do, began, I learned, firstly, not to honk at others who, for example, forced a priority. Secondly, at some point I realized that sometimes I drive too fast in some places. Bad habits behind the wheel also need to be turned around.

Oczywiście nie wszyscy kierowcy to rajdowcy czy siadający po alkoholu. Problem w tym, że katolicyzm jest religią animizmu. Uważa się, że poświęcenie takiej drogi ma szczególny charakter, że nadaje jej moc, ale tak nie jest. Kto wie, czy nie ma to skutku odwrotnego, czyli faktycznie nie dość, że nie pomaga, to może ze względu na osobę kapłana – a wiemy jacy oni są – droga staje się przeklęta.

Jest takie miejsce na autostradzie A1 ok 1km przed węzłem Tuszyn od strony Piotrkowa, gdzie przed górką po prawej stronie,  stale stoją na poboczu jakieś auta. Ciekaw jestem kto tę drogę święcił…

 

Blessings are given to all brides and grooms during their wedding from their parents, and yet these relationships often break down.

In light of statistics and realities, do such blessings have any power? Rather not at all. In any case, none positive.

 

Solomon did not pray for money or power, but for wisdom. Wisdom is when we respect the Law of God. Hence, many atheists live according to this Law without even knowing it. On the other hand, some evangelicals live in rebellion to God's Law to their own and others' detriment, knowing that the Law no longer applies to them. The result? A bad life, and not from fighting for the kingdom, but from entering the world.

 

The obedient evangelical can pray for such a path on his own, without priests, for he is the priest.

“Ale wy jesteście rodem wybranym, królewskim kapłaństwem, narodem świętym, ludem nabytym, abyście rozgłaszali cnoty tego, który was powołał z ciemności do cudownej swojej światłości;

^{Peter 1}

 

He can pray for the estate road, the highway and others. If he does, he will not do it religiously, but from the heart, and only such prayers are effective.

 

Blessings can only come from obedience to God's Law. You don't get them just because you believe in the historical fact of Jesus' life on earth. Demons also believe in Jesus, but they tremble.

 

“1 Jeśli więc pilnie będziesz słuchał głosu Pana, Boga swego, wiernie wypełniając wszystkie Jego polecenia, które ja ci dziś daję, wywyższy cię Pan, Bóg twój, ponad wszystkie narody ziemi. 2 Spłyną na ciebie i spoczną wszystkie te błogosławieństwa, jeśli będziesz słuchał głosu Pana, Boga swego. 3 Będziesz błogosławiony w mieście, błogosławiony na polu. 4 Błogosławiony będzie owoc twego łona, plon twej roli, przychówek twych zwierząt, przyrost twego większego bydła i pomiot bydła mniejszego. 5 Błogosławiony będzie twój kosz i dzieża. 6 Błogosławione będzie twoje wejście i wyjście. 7 Pan sprawi, że twoi wrogowie, którzy powstaną przeciw tobie, zostaną pobici przez ciebie. Jedną szli drogą przeciw tobie, a siedmioma drogami uciekać będą przed tobą.’

8 The LORD will command that there be a blessing with you in the granaries, in everything to which you stretch out your hand. He will bless you in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. 9 The Lord will make you his holy people, as he swore to you, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways. 10 Then all the nations of the earth will see that the name of the Lord has been called over you, and they will fear you. 11 The LORD shall fill thee in abundance with the fruit of thy womb, with the produce of thy cattle, with the harvest of the field, in the land which he swore to thy forefathers that he would give thee. 12 The LORD will open to you the rich treasures of heaven, giving in his time the rain that falls on your land, and blessing every work of your hands. You will lend to many nations, and you yourself will not borrow from anyone. 13 The LORD will put you always in the lead, and not at the end; you will always be top and never last, so long as you obey the commands of the LORD your God, which I command you today to obey diligently. 14 Do not depart from the words that I am commanding you today, either to the right or to the left, in order to follow and serve foreign gods.

To God are abominable deeds without obedience as spoken of by Isaiah inspired by the Holy Spirit:

 

'Why do I need the multitude of your sacrifices? - says the Lord. 'I have enough burnt offerings of rams; I do not want the fat of lambs or the blood of bulls and goats. When you come to show yourselves to me, who has demanded these things from your hands? You do not have to trample in my courtyard anymore. Though you bring me fine wheat flour, yet in vain. The incense offering is an abomination to them. I cannot endure these new moon days of yours, these Sabbaths, nor this great day. My soul despises your fasting, your holy rest, your new moon days, your feasts. I am nauseated because of you; I cannot bear your sins any longer.'" - Isaiah 1:11-14

 

One could paraphrase on both Catholics and Protestants.

Well, let's get started.

 

Catholics:

 

I'm sick of your rosaries and your Christmas trees and your baskets and your pumpkins and your Hail Marys. You make me sick.

 

Protestants.

 

I've had enough of your worship, expert theology and religious prayers. You make me nauseous...

 

God said: obedience He wants not sacrifice. Why? Because if there is no sin, then there need not be a sacrifice offered.

Praise God the Father in Jesus' name.
