Barbara (Guest): While we’re waiting for others to join, may I share a couple of the summary quotes that struck me?
Jun 18, 7:25 PM
SrSusan (Guest): Usually I notice new documents but this has been a time of serious reflection for us so I am not following things too much
Jun 18, 7:25 PM
SrSusan (Guest): Yes please share
, 7:25 PM
Barbara (Guest): TY! From The Beacon article’s section “From being an ‘influencer’ to a witness:
“One question the text encourages Christians to reflect on is whether their social media posts are pursuing “followers” for themselves or for Christ.” 18, 7:26 PM
Barbara (Guest): “The text highlights how ‘every Christian should be aware of his or her potential influence, no matter how many followers he or she has.’” n 18, 7:26 PM
Barbara (Guest): “It urges people to remember that ‘there were no ‘likes’ at all and almost no ‘followers’ at the moment of the biggest manifestation of the glory of God! Every human measurement of ‘success’ is relativized by the logic of the Gospel.’” 18, 7:27 PM
Barbara (Guest): “It is in this sense that we better understand the words of the great John the Baptist, the first witness of Christ: ‘He must increase; I must decrease’ (Jn 3:30). Like the Forerunner, who urged his disciples to follow Christ, we too are not pursuing ‘followers’ for ourselves, but for Christ. We can spread the Gospel only by forging a communion that unites us in Christ. We do this by following Jesus’ example of interacting with others.” 8, 7:29 PM
SrSusan (Guest): How do you think we fit in as a chat? It seems to me that we are honestly and unknowingly attempting to match these statementsun 18, 7:30 PM
SrSusan (Guest): and we have a good goal laid out for us in the above quotes

Jun 18, 7:31 PM
SrSusan (Guest): hi Ruth
8, 7:33 PM
SrSusan (Guest): St John the Baptist received grace from the womb and the Holy Spirit was instrumental in his life
Jun 18, 7:33 PM
Simone (Guest): Hi everyone!
Jun 18, 7:33 PM
SrSusan (Guest): Hi Simone
un 18, 7:34 PM
SrSusan (Guest): His greatness lies in his humility Jun 18, 7:34 PM
Ruth (Guest): Thank you, Barbara Jun 18, 7:34 PM
Barbara (Guest): The closer we are to following the Lord’s Light, the more we see how much we owe Him for everything–except our sins
Jun 18, 7:34 PM
Simone (Guest): If we consider that humility is self knowledge most of all – then St. John the Baptist had a bit of a heads up- since his father announced so beautifully who he was.
8, 7:35 PM
Lisa C (Guest): I have heard that St. J had no original sin. I do not know whether it is true, because I also heard that only Jesus and Blessed Mother had no original sin. un 18, 7:35 PM
SrSusan (Guest): maybe it was wiped away in the womb
Jun 18, 7:35 PM
Simone (Guest): I have read recently that sin was taken away in the womb
8, 7:36 PM
Lisa C (Guest): How would it be wiped away
Jun 18, 7:36 PM
Simone (Guest): baptized in the womb – through the interaction with Mary at the Visitation
Jun 18, 7:36 PM
SrSusan (Guest): The Holy Spirit perhaps altho I never heard he had no original sin
un 18, 7:37 PM
Lisa C (Guest): If it is wiped away then he had it
Jun 18, 7:37 PM
SrSusan (Guest): true

n 18, 7:38 PM
SrSusan (Guest): Ruth about the Vatican document? un 18, 7:38 PM
SrSusan (Guest): q Can one truly be great without humility? Jun 18, 7:39 PM
Simone (Guest): so – there were basically three persons on earth .. who dealt with sin differently than any other human being. Jesus – of course – could not even have original sin – Mary – who was graced to be spared from it – and St. John who had it taken away in the womb n 18, 7:39 PM
Simone (Guest): I love that question Sr. Susan. Because it clearly shows – that the lower we bow the greater we can be 18, 7:40 PM
Steph (Guest): my dearest greetings all, apolgize for lateness, thank you to my guardian angel for reminding me about checking my email

Simone (Guest): thanks Lisa.. I just glanced it.
Jun 18, 7:42 PM
SrSusan (Guest): so it is a question re S John the Baptist that is being grappled with theologically
Jun 18, 7:42 PM
Barbara (Guest): One of the sad, but true costs of celebrity, right?
n 18, 7:42 PM
Simone (Guest): But the Pope is a celebrity and does it with full humility 18, 7:43 PM
Simone (Guest): it can be done
Jun 18, 7:43 PM
SrSusan (Guest): Mother Theresa of Calcutta was humble
Jun 18, 7:43 PM
Lisa C (Guest): OK Mother you are right, they think when the HS came into him it was wiped away…so he was born without it, but not conceived without it
Jun 18, 7:43 PM

45 PM
SrSusan (Guest): where
Jun 18, 7:45 PM
Simone (Guest): I bought a book on St. Joseph – there it was stated
Jun 18, 7:45 PM
Ruth (Guest): I’m curious what difference it makes for theology . . . Whether or not St. John was born without Original Sin. Is that why he could baptism even his cousin Jesus?
Jun 18, 7:45 PM
SrSusan (Guest): I am falling behind in alot of areas tonight!
Jun 18, 7:45 PM
Steph (Guest): exactly Barbara, some saints sought solitude such as St Mary of Egypt, and I cant remember the famous hermit in Canda
un 18, 7:46 PM
Steph (Guest): but their mission in life brought them out to public, but they were humble about their gifts n 18, 7:46 PM
Lisa C (Guest): For St. John the Bap and St. Joe it is not doctrine, but many saints have said so
8, 7:47 PM
Simone (Guest): being a public figure is maybe a challenge to humility – because voices constantly praise you for what you are not – but it does not erase humility

Simone (Guest): invitation to repentance
Jun 18, 7:51 PM
Ruth (Guest): I fall behind all the time, but this time I fell forward, right on my forehead and nose. I seem to be ok though. That was just before chat. I’d been about six months without any more falls, at least not all the way to the floor or the ground. Just carelessness, bending over to look more closely at the wild plants at the roadside.
Jun 18, 7:51 PM
Steph (Guest): Sister, I think and have wondered how he carried himself, full of the Holy Spirit as he prepared people for Jesus.
Jun 18, 7:51 PM
Barbara (Guest): Perhaps his “fiery prophet” authoritative call to repentance
SrSusan (Guest): it is a good meditation Steph!
Jun 18, 7:51 PM
Steph (Guest): Yes Barbara, as he called out the ruler and his mistress, he had no fear only fear of the Lord, he was strong!
Jun 18, 7:52 PM

8, 7:53 PM
Steph (Guest): Yes, Ruth, glad you are ok and just look at God’s beautiful creation from up high next time not eye level.

SrSusan (Guest): St John’s preaching must have made people wonder 8, 7:53 PM
Simone (Guest): Steph – your sentence has almost a prophetic voice for me. Reminding me that I have to be full of the Holy Spirit as I call other to a life with Jesus
Jun 18, 7:53 PM
Ruth (Guest): It is interesting how all three sinless were all humble but apparently so different in demeanor.
Jun 18, 7:53 PM
Barbara (Guest): Maybe seeing him baptize the Lord likley added to their conviction
Jun 18, 7:53 PM
SrSusan (Guest): and despite his fire iness humility must have come through
un 18, 7:54 PM
Steph (Guest): I have some priest during mass, during their homilies that are so filled with Holy Spirit, I get so facinated and just listen. I can only imagine about John and his speeches or the way he carried himself, with humility but strength, like St Joseph 18, 7:54 PM
Ruth (Guest): Ususally, anyhow. I imagine Jesus as being very gentle. But he wasn’t when he turned over the tables in the Temple.
Jun 18, 7:55 PM
Simone (Guest): As for St. Joseph – although I do not see a theological component fully – but can you imagine living with concupiscence and then you share the household with two people who have never experienced that?
18, 7:55 PM
Barbara (Guest): Maybe his visible humility came in his acquiesce of his disciples to the Lord
Jun 18, 7:55 PM
Lisa C (Guest): It seems many saints think St. Joseph was conceived without original sin
un 18, 7:55 PM
Simone (Guest): Ruth … even then Jesus was gentle in the temple – he took the time to make a whip – that was time of grace for others I think 8, 7:56 PM
Lisa C (Guest): The Immaculate Conception was not doctrine until it was. Maybe someday they will know for sure about St. J Bap and St. Joe
Jun 18, 7:56 PM

Barbara (Guest): Culture rewards popularity regardless of the nature of the “influencer’s” spiritual influence…In fact, the cancel culture makes it hard to be a good witness n 18, 8:03 PM
Lisa C (Guest): I read today that we do not know whether souls can see us or pray for us. They know Saints in Heaven can. That broke my heart today. n 18, 8:03 PM
Simone (Guest): Did it break your heart Lisa – because you are not sure if your Dad sees you now?
Jun 18, 8:03 PM

SrSusan (Guest): that’s another phrase that is more or less recent what does it exactly mean :17 PM
Simone (Guest): Ruth.. in regards to your comment.. when Moses – tried to answer the need of his people in HIS power .. he killed ONE person – with a lot of physical energy- and nothing really achieved. Other than the punishment got harder. When Moses worked in GOd’s timing with GOD’s strength — all he needed to do was to stretch out his Hand over the Red Sea – and everyone of the enemy was killed and they were free. 18, 8:17 PM
