Fr. Frank Pavone: The Culture of Death Will Not Prevail Against the Church!

The Gates Of Hell Shall Not Prevail Against It!

"The need to end abortion is our world’s first obligation at the moment, because nothing takes more lives, and no right other than life itself is more necessary to secure if all our other rights are to be preserved.

"The war against the unborn can only ultimately be stopped by and through the Church. When we mobilize the Church, when we fully activate and encourage the Body of Christ to use the natural and supernatural gifts given to us to overcome the Culture of Death, then victory will be achieved.

"Imagine the vast structure of the Catholic Church. In the United States alone, we have nearly 19,000 parishes, 8,000 schools, and over 41,000 priests. Each diocese and parish has means of communication with the people they serve on a daily basis. Just from a natural, sociological point of view, this is a vast network of interaction and communication, geared precisely to helping people love God and neighbor. Imagine what can happen if our priests infuse that vast structure with clear, vigorous, and compassionate pro-life teaching and action.

"The Church is the only institution that has a Divine guarantee that it will prevail over the culture of death. “The gates of hell will not prevail against it,” the Lord said (Mt.16:18). In a battle, a gate does not go into the battlefield to attack the enemy; rather, it stands still to defend the city against the attack of the enemy. It is the Church that is on the offensive against the gates of hell. Those gates cannot withstand the power of heaven. The gates of death fall in the presence of eternal life. Sin melts in the presence of saving grace. Falsehood collapses in the presence of living truth.

"To fully exercise those gifts and apply those tools to the specific problem of abortion, therefore, does not so much require more structure as it does more spirit, more awareness, more courage, and more determination to use both the means and the opportunities we already have.

We will win; after all, it’s an unequal praying field."

In GOD We Still Trust: One Nation Under GOD!!!

"In God, we still trust here in America,
He's the one we turn to every time the goin' gets rough.
He is the source of all our strength, the One who watches over us.
Here in America, in God, we still trust.
Now there are those among us, Who wanna push Him out.
And erase His name from everything,
This country's all about.
From the schoolhouse to the courthouse,
They're silencing His Word,
An' now it's time for all believers,
To make our voices heard."


"You place your hand on His Bible, when you swear to tell the truth. His name is on our greatest monuments an' all our money too. An' when we pledge allegiance, there's no doubt where we stand: There's no separation, we're one nation under Him. In God, we still trust here in America, He's the One we turn to every time the going gets rough. He is the source of all our strength, the One who watches over us.
