Video – Fr. Peter Fehlner: Tradition in Scotus’ Mariology

Tuesday, December 7th, 2010
Click to Play Video

Short Series #31 – Tradition in Scotus’ Mariology ( 40min) >>> Play

Ave Maria!

Since yesterday’s post for Scotus Month was on the radical Christology of Scotus, and is the firm basis for his Mariology, this is a natural post to follow up and lead us to tomorrow’s grand feast of the Immaculate Conception which Scotus was so famous for defending, and so central to the Franciscans of the Immaculate. The audio is a bit low at first but gets better.

In the seventh presentation at our International Centenary Symposium on the Mariology of Bl. John Duns Scotus held in Durham, England, Fr. Peter discusses the source of tradition present in the Mariology of Bl. John Duns Scotus.

Ave Maria!

Video – No Apologies #119: The Heresy of Sabellianism

No Apologies #119 – Type the Caption here ( 04min) >>> Play

Ave Maria!

Sabellianism taught that the 3 Persons in the Trinity were not distinct persons but rather 3 different modes or offices that the 1 God appeared in. Knowledge of their error is helpful in dealing with those who believe that the Bible is the sole transmitter of the Deposit of Faith. Sabellius broke from Sacred Tradition and it was this that orthodox opponents used to combat him.

Ave Maria!

Jan 14 – Homily – Fr Ignatius: St. Hilary vs Arianism

Thursday, January 14th, 2010
Click to Play

Homily #100114 ( 06min) Play – St. Hilary of Poitiers fought the heresy of Arianism in his time. He did this by being true to the Magisterium. As the Catechism says:

Par 85 “The task of giving an authentic interpretation of the Word of God, whether in its written form or in the form of Tradition, has been entrusted to the living teaching office of the Church alone. Its authority in this matter is exercised in the name of Jesus Christ.” This means that the task of interpretation has been entrusted to the bishops in communion with the successor of Peter, the Bishop of Rome.

This simple policy guarantees that we won’t fall into error of personal interpretation whether of scripture as the Protestants do or of Tradition as the ultra Traditionalists do.

Ave Maria! St. Hilary, Bishop and Doctor of the Church – Mass: EF, In Medio Ecclesiae Readings: 1st: 2ti 4:1-8 – Gsp: mat 5:13-19

Our Lady of Lourdes

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009
 
Ave Maria Mediations

A little history of the apparition of Our Lady at Lourdes

I cannot promise you happiness in this life; only in the next”, said Our Lady to the little girl named Bernadette. The young girl lives out her life quietly, going to a convent and never seeking attention for herself. She gave all of herself to God and became a great saint. Her body is incorrupt and it looks so beautiful as if she is only sleeping. It is a marvel!

History of Our Lady of Lourdes

The Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes in southern France is the most visited pilgrimage site in the world — principally because of the apparent healing properties of the waters of the spring that appeared during the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary to a poor, fourteen-year-old girl, Bernadette Soubirous.

The first apparition occurred February 11, 1858. (more…)

The Presentation of Mary – Ave Maria Meditations

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

Ven. Mary of Agreda “The Mystical City of God’ (abridged) on HER PRESENTATION IN THE TEMPLE

The three years’ time decreed by the Lord having been completed, Joachim and Anne set out from Nazareth, accompanied by a few of their kindred and bringing with them the true living Ark of the covenant, the most holy Mary, borne on the arms of her mother in order to be deposited in the holy temple of Jerusalem. The beautiful child, by her fervent and loving aspirations, hastened after the ointments of her Beloved, seeking in the temple Him, whom she bore in her heart.

Mar 29 – Homily – Fr Ignatius: Our Lord First Appeared to His Mother

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

Homily #080329 ( 07min) Play – Tradition holds, and the Church teaches, that Our Lord first appeared to His Mother after His Resurrection. So when the Gospel writers say that our Lord first appeared to Mary Magdalen, this does not exclude the possibility that he appeared to His Mother before this.

No Apologies #12 – Friar Joseph explaining that the Blessed Virgin Mary remained a virgin before, during, and after the Birth of Our Lord>>> Play

Ave Maria!

We apologize for the delay in getting this episode of “No Apologies” on the air. The Airmaria production team was on a field trip last week to Steubenville, Ohio, and Bloomington, Indiana, and with limited internet access during this time, we were unable to post this episode.

Fra Joseph is also recovering from a bout of Lyme’s disease and is in St Raphael’s Hospital in New Haven for the next week, so we will be unable to post the next episode of “No Apologies” for another two weeks – one thing for sure, these episodes are worth waiting for and in this episode Fra Joseph again skillfully explains the Perpetual Virginity of the Blessed Virgin Mary using Sacred Scripture, Church Tradition, and the writings of the Early Church Fathers.

Ave Maria!
