Be Urgent In & Out of “Season”
By: Eric Gajewski
2 Tim. 4:1-8
Beloved: I charge you, in the sight of God and Christ Jesus, Who will judge the living and the dead by His coming and by His kingdom, preach the word be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, entreat, rebuke with all patience and teaching. For there will come a time when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but having itching ears, will heap up to themselves teachers according to their lusts, and they will turn away their hearing from the truth and turn aside rather to fables. But be watchful in all things, bear with tribulation patiently, work as a preacher of the Gospel, fulfill your ministry. As for me, I am already being poured out in sacrifice, and the time of my deliverance is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith. For the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord, the just Judge, will give to me in that day; yet not to me only, but also to those who love His coming.

Urgent is defined as requiring
immediate action or attention. Can any
true traditionalist at this point say the majority are living as giving their
immediate attention to their salvation?
In addition to that thought can we say the majority are living with the
hope of His Coming? Yes, Christ is
literally coming again but what about today?
Are you ready to meet Him tonight if Death’s invitation happens to be
slid under your door this evening? We
you be caught off guard or do you guard your heart’s every movement? Urgency, is a topic not often talked about in
the Church and yet we are surrounded by a world moving fast. We have fast food to satisfy our stomachs
quickly. We have pornography to satisfy
our senses very quickly. We even have
those automated Lotto “scratch off” machines so we can potentially become “richer”
in one mere scratch of the ticket! We want
now and yet does this describe the everyday Catholic? Do you want Jesus now and every second or
only in that hour of need? Truly we find
ourselves in the trial because we first didn’t learn to give thanks and we
thought we were self-sufficient. Let us
break down further what it means to be urgent and apply it to the various
topics of our godless modern times.
Knowest not the hour. It is true that Our Lord said that we would
not know the hour but He did say that more generally we would know the
season. “And that knowing
the season; that it is now the hour for us to rise from sleep. For now
our salvation is nearer than when we believed.”
Romans 13:11 For those who
urgently wait upon the Lord the “signs” are all around us just as He indicated
in Matthew 24, Luke 21 and in the Apocalypse.
Yes but Eric even the early Church thought Christ was coming in their
times. Yes, this is true but how does
that specifically refute the argument of what we are seeing today? We have had Saints who wrongly times the
arrival of the Antichrist even yet this does not mean that they were false
prophets or not Saints at all. I think
most in their gut, in the very least, suspect, we are approaching the more near
end of the world however this should not be our focus. Our focus every day is the day itself. Take full advantage of the opportunities God
gives you in your life to become Saints today.
You need not be the latest “endtimes forecaster” all you need to do is
be faithful. Objectively speaking you
cannot be faithful if you are following the New Religion of Vatican II.
In this same lesson for today we are
forewarned of unsound doctrine. Over
time Catholicism has been diminishing all over the globe even before Vatican
II. Prideful men have turned away from
Catholic truth and caused division and then the more ignorant followed
them. Moving forward to our more modern
times we now have the enemy who chose to work from within brilliantly. Sadly, the majority follow along in false
obedience. Eagles are urgent and remain
in season even when they are labeled as “out of season” by those preaching
their new man centered false gospel.
Truth is not a democracy my friends and yet sadly we hear the cries “we
the people, we the people” and neglect their God. What about God? What about those doctrines
which He passed down through His Catholic Apostles? What about Tradition? Modern man has “itchy ears” because he is tired
of the “old”. “Therefore,
brethren, stand fast; and hold the traditions which you have learned,
whether by word, or by our epistle.” 2
Thess. 2:14 He does not want Truth as the Apostle
indicates. He desires and lusts after
novelty. Protestants have left the Body
because they do not hold to Tradition and so do the modernists of Vatican II
with their new baskins robbins flavor of “Catholicism”. We now have the new doctrines as John Paul II admitted mixed in with a swirl of even
newer environmentalism and “mercy” to go with it. All under the guise of “we need updating”. A Mother who sees their child running toward
the street where dangerously fast cars are moving is urgent and all we can
muster up is a couch and some Cheetos.
We complain before Mass because we got there “too early” and then we
complain after Mass because it was too long all in the Presence of God
Himself. Think about that and get a grip
on your complaining and mummering because God does strike dead (literally) those
who do.

Gospel of “nice” and mercy. This one ought be a “no brainer’ that if the
doctrines were indeed to change the modernists would to play nice and hide
behind their false understanding of mercy.
God is not so rigid, of course, because these subjectivists do not see
black and white in any situation. No we
have to feed every last person on the Planet so that they can get their
Socialist One World Republic solidified.
They are not playing nice and doing it with a smile because the endgame
as Pope St Pius X warned was exploitation of the people. The New World Order is not here to benefit
you my friends. No, they are playing
their game and manipulating world events so they can catch you in their
trap. This endgame is about control and
manipulation. Those following Vatican II
bow down to man and human respect. They
see Jesus as the nice guy always going around with a smile handing out his free
“miracle” coupons and NEVER do they see Him turning over tables and getting
loud and direct with His enemies! Love
does not always smile folks. No, we
cannot have that if all religions must come together and coexist under the soon
False Prophet and Antichrist. These new
world order agents are patiently calculating their manipulation yet Catholics
sit back and are not urgent in exposing them.
We are too afraid. My donations
will decrease or I will lose my job. Or
my website’s traffic will decrease. How
is that going to fly before our King who reads hearts and will put them on
display at your Judgement?
Watch & Pray. Sadly, a lot of Catholics do neither. Many do not believe we are in the endgame
because they are scared to be labeled that conspiratorial nut. That is why the false traditionalists have to
write a certain way in order to stay within their narrative. Still others, could care less as they are too
preoccupied by videos games, the latest smartphone or whatever gadget and
gadget catches their eye! Eyes focused
in on the world rather than watching for the “signs”. Secondarily, can we say we truly pray enough
during the day? Do we pray only at meals
or when we get that flat tire or rather is our whole day offered up as a
prayer? Pray? Why should I?
I have thousands in the bank a big home a “hot” wife and a maid who does
everything else for me. Self much… Mr.
Modern man. We have become our own world
instead of unifying our hearts with His.
What is God interested in? The
salvation of souls and yet you complain and cannot offer up that awful “hangnail”
God just graced you with. Watch &
pray not sleep all day. We are too
distracted and detached yet eagles are the antithesis of such.
I have been labeled “aggressive’. I recall certain false traditionalists some
time back implying that I was too aggressive and trying to make a connection
between false teachers and this aggression.
This is complete buffoonery. I
wonder if these same individuals would label the early apostles as such. They were “urgent” and sought out to preach
in and out of season but these pacifists of Vatican II still don’t quite
it. Their world is coexistence and
convergence without any conversion to the true Faith. Why do these individuals go out and try to
convert in the modernist new evangelization?
Do these same blind souls not realize that it is Vatican II new doctrine
not to convert? These modernists do not
need to be urgent. Everyone is all good
in Vatican II NewChurch as the search for truth continues onward for them (that’s
what they say not me). With Vatican II
has come a long famine. We are in the
midst of it. It has been a long hot
summer of enduring these heretics but we have the Faith and Hope of the spring
time season to come once again. Many of
you are finding that you are not welcomed in various social media circles or
maybe in your own family. Dust your
shoes off and you know what to do.
Perhaps just leave your shoes off altogether but nevertheless let us be
reminded that through the Rosary and the intercession of the Blessed Virgin
Mary we can help in winning souls over to Tradition. In the end, whether Planet X or the
Antichrist shows or not you ought be preparing daily for “His Coming”. Get off the couch and tuck your gut back
in. Shut the TV off and get in the fight
there is far too much work to do and so much at stake. Some of you are too busy seasoning your steak
amidst this spiritual famine. Some of
you are about as urgent in your prayer life as an obese child is that approaches
a table full of vegetables at dinner time.
Let us get at it and get to work.
Ave Maria!
