How to Examine Your Conscience (& Know Your Main Fault) | LITTLE BY LITTLE | Fr Columba Jordan CFR

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

It's particularly important to examine our conscience before Confession, but it's also something we can do every day. Fr Columba recommends three different ways we can do this: the classic way, the St Ignatius way, and by looking at our "predominant fault".

A very effective spiritual touchstone when contemplation of faith and the meaning of our beliefs is necessary. I find you provide a lot of good guidance at those times. 🌹🌹Have a blessed Easter.

    Your video just helped me so much, I was praying this morning for Our Mother to expose my biggest defect. I was thinking it was pride, but you just explained vanity and that really resonated with me. Why is it so easy to see other peoples issues and so hard to define our own? Fr. you were the answer to my prayer this very morning! Peace and Love!

    Thank you.. Again. The Decalogue '10 commandments' there are lots of relatable transcriptions which help to see our offence toward the loving God. For eg 8, lying. But what is that? Ask the question see where it leads. Always Good is love that's why it matters greatly. Heal and grow in his love.

    All respect, but I cannot help but think of the phrase "monkey motion" when I hear all the steps, procedures, and operations involved in the Catholic religion. As an engineer I was taught the KISS (keep it simple stupid) principle. "Monkey motion" is jumping up and down and spinning around without accomplishing anything. God nature is your nature, and it is not two, not even one. Close your eyes and see with your heart. Confession is the dead talking to the dead. Go back beyond your alleged birth, and see what you saw before you started talking with the dead. Reject the mind of Adam, take up the mind of Jesus. Take the direct path.

    The dead talking to the dead? You may be an engineer, but clearly not an expert at Catholicism. Which you don’t have to be…but t please don’t try to use your views on what you think confession is and present it as facts. Have a blessed day
