Padre Pio- A Catholic Priest Who Worked Miracles & Bore the Stigmata. Wednesday 8 May, 2019. Solemnity of St. Joseph. Apparition of St. Michael the Archangel




Padre Pio - A Catholic Priest Who Worked Miracles and bore the wounds of Jesus Christ on His Body

Padre Pio was a Franciscan Capuchin priest who bore the five wounds of Jesus Christ on his body, and the first priest in the history of the Catholic Church to receive the visible stigmata.

Padre Pio was born on May 25, 1887, named Francesco Forgione and was baptized the following day. At the early age of five years, Francesco was extremely sensitive to matters concerning God.

On January 6, 1903, Padre Pio entered religious life as a Capuchin monk, but his health was so bad that his theology professor told him that he could not become a preacher, but the hope was that he would become a great and conscientious confessor. 

How prophetic was that statement for it would be fulfilled in an incredible way, when Padre Pio was ordained as a priest of the Catholic Church on August 10, 1910.

Confessions

The power to forgive sins, conferred by Jesus Christ upon the Apostles, and conferred upon priests validly ordained by a bishop would play a prominent role in the life and miracles of Padre Pio.  From 1918 to 1923, Padre Pio heard confessions fifteen to nineteen hours every day.  In the 1940's and 1950's, he generally hears confessions somewhat less than that, but still five to eight hours every day.

Padre Pio demanded that each confession be a true conversion. he didn't tolerate lack of honesty in the explanation of sins. 

Many of Padre Pio's penitents made the astounding statement that, when in his confessional, they would experience the awesome impression of being before the judgement seat of God.

Among those who came to see Padre Pio, there were professed unbelievers.  Some of them came to see him out of curiosity, others to mock Padre Pio and God.

Two Freemasons, who were bitterly opposed to God and the Catholic Church, decided to make mock confessions to Padre Pio of sins they simply made up.     Their goal was to desecrate the Sacrament of Penance, and these two men went to see him at separate times. 

As they began to confess their made up sins, Padre Pio stopped them, told them he knew what they were doing, and then began to tell each of them their real sins, as well as the time, the place and how they committed them.  The two men were so overwhelmed that a few days later they repented of their sinful lives and converted.

One person in confession questioned the very existence of Hell.   Padre Pio responded, "You will believe it when you get there."

 

Padre Pio seen in the Air during World War II

During World War II, some American and English pilots were ordered to bomb the area of San Giovanni Rotondo in Italy.

When they were getting ready to drop the bombs, the pilots reported seeing in the air a monk who, with outstretched hands, convinced them not to drop the bombs.   They later recognized Padre Pio as the one who appeared before them in the sky.



A Presbyterian, Colonel Loyal Bob Curry, reported this as well.  Colonel Curry served in the 464th Bomb Group of the Fifteenth Air Force, under General Nathan F. Twining, from December 1944 until his plane was shot down and he was imprisoned by the Germans a month later.  He heard about the apparitions of Padre Pio in the sky.   Curry said: "Everybody was talking about it, both the American servicemen as well as the Italians who took care of the quarters."

Regarding the Holy Rosary, Sister Lucia told Father Fuentes in a famous 1957 interview:

“Look, Father, the Most Holy Virgin in these last times in which we live has given a new efficacy to the recitation of the Holy Rosary. She has given this efficacy to such an extent that there is no problem, no matter how difficult it is, whether temporal or above all, spiritual, in the personal life of each one of us, of our families, of the families of the world, or of the religious communities, or even of the life of peoples and nations that cannot be solved by the Rosary. There is no problem I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot resolve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary. With the Holy Rosary, we will save ourselves. We will sanctify ourselves. We will console Our Lord and obtain the salvation of many souls.”

Some Protestant Objections: 

 

“New Zealand cardinal asks laity to stop calling priests ‘Father’ to fight ‘clericalism’”


lifesitenews.com

“Cardinal John Dew of New Zealand wrote a missive to Catholics of the Pacific archipelago urging them to not address priests as ‘Father.’

 

In providing a synopsis of an article by Fr. Jean-Pierre Roche that appeared in La Croix, Cardinal Dew said he joined the French priest in wondering why priests are called ‘Father.’

 

He continued, ‘In August last year Pope Francis wrote a Letter to the People of God, to all of us. The Holy Father appealed to all of God’s people to take action against ‘clericalism’ which he sees as the source of abuse perpetrated by priest and bishops.’…

 

Cardinal Dew has been criticized in the past for arguing that divorced and ‘remarried’ Catholics should be admitted to the Eucharist. He has also taken liberties in the liturgy of the Mass.

 

Catholic theologians and commentators have noted in the past the reasons why Catholics generally refer to priests personally as ‘Father.’ For example, as the apologists at Catholic Answers explain, to take the words of Jesus Christ literally would mean that no one would call his own paternal parent ‘Father.’ 

 

The use of the term in the Old Testament was not limited to one’s natural father. 

 

For example, in the book of Genesis, Joseph tells his brothers that God had given him a fatherly relationship with the Pharaoh of Egypt: ‘So it was not you who sent me here, but God; and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house and ruler over all the land of Egypt’ (Gen. 45:8). The Prophet Job says: ‘I was a father to the poor, and I searched out the cause of him whom I did not know’ (Job 29:16). And the Lord told King David’s steward, Eliakim: ‘In that day I will call my servant Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah … and I will clothe him with [a] robe, and will bind [a] girdle on him, and will commit … authority to his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah’ (Is. 22:20–21).

 

In the New Testament, protomartyr St. Stephen refers to ‘our father Abraham’ (Acts 7:2), while St. Paul speaks of ‘our father Isaac’ in Romans 9:10. Also, various early writers, such as St. Clement of Rome and St. John Chrysostom, are known as ‘Fathers of the Church.’

 

 

 

It has been suggested that Jesus was engaging in rhetoric in order to make a point. The entire passage of Matthew 23 reads: ‘But you are not to be called ‘rabbi,’ for you have one teacher, and you are all brethren. And call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven. Neither be called ‘masters,’ for you have one master, the Christ’ (Mt. 23:8–10).”

‘Father’


Hello Brothers,

 

Matthew 23:9 And call no man your father on the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.!

 

Why do then Catholics call the Pope and priest fathers... the bible clearly states not to call no one father..?... I have been watching your great videos and i want convert soon. i just need to have some questions answered..you answer a question regarding the rosary a while back.  I need the Facts regarding Catholic Doctrine.

 

Michael

 

MHFM: In saying “call no man Father,” Jesus is saying that we should regard no man in the same way that we regard God. There are numerous passages in the New Testament in which the term “father” is used to describe men.  St. Stephen, who was without question one of the greatest saints, used the term:


 


Acts 7:2- “[Stephen] said: Ye men, brethren, and fathers, hear.”


 

There are many other examples, including Stephen again in Acts 7:51. The term is applied to priests in the same way that St. Paul speaks of himself as a spiritual father to the Corinthians in 1 Corinthians 4:15:For if you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet not many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, by the gospel, I have begotten you.”


 

You really need to convert to Catholicism.  It’s the only true faith.  It’s necessary for salvation.  You should see our book, The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church.  These are the steps you should follow to convert:
