The second commandment says Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless, that taketh his name in vain.
The videos posted on youtube do not show any conversation with a lawyer. I suspect that is "after the fact revisionism" which means it is probably a lie.
It’s interesting that they had the baptismal font available for making the sign of the cross. In my parish church the font is immovable so it would be rather inconvenient to go to it and then return to receive communion. But we have a rite at the beginning of holy week in which the faithful are...
Good Friday is a commemoration of the day on which the Lord was tried before Pilate, sentenced to death, crucified, and died. He was also entombed on this day. The meaning of these events is at the heart of Christian faith. By his suffering and death the Lord ransomed his people and by the...

That is true yet Jesus told the parable saying that the workers in the fields were instructed to leave the tares undisturbed until the harvest was gathered. The time of gathering the harvest is not yet here. The last judgement is still future for us so we cannot be obedient and at the same time...
It means what it says. The Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father through the Son. Procession is thus a joint "activity" of Father and Son and an "attribute" of the Holy Spirit just as being "begotten of the Father before all worlds" is an "activity" of the Father and an "attribute" of the Son. As...
