The Sacred Heart of Jesus is the remedy against liberalism, pride and debauchery of sexuality

                                                   

The Heart of Jesus: Remedy for the Evils of our Times
The Sacred Heart of Jesus is the remedy against liberalism, rationalism, selfishness, pride and debauchery of sexuality.
“The Heart of Jesus is the providential reserve that is kept for our times by the goodness of God…No other devotion is more appropriate for the needs of modern times.  To the selfishness of our era, to its sensual tendencies, its religious indifference, the most delicate, pure, disinterested, tender and compassionate cult is offered as remedy” (Monsignor Baudry).
Pope Pius IX with devotion to the Sacred Heart fought rationalism and liberalism.


"Pope Pius IX saw a remedy in the Heart of Jesus against liberalism, and therefore approved, by a Solemn Consecration on June 16, 1875, a formula in which is found a prayer for the conversion of liberal Catholics.(The Sacred Heart of Jesus, author P. Julio Chevalier MSC: Remedy for the evil of society book III chap. 3)

Pius IX, in 1864 (Quanta Cura), described to us its characteristics:
 •Pride: You will know them because they manifest their disdain on all that signifies a prompt, complete and absolute obedience to the decrees and mandates of the Holy See. They will consider themselves as wiser than the Church (cf. no.5). 
•Servility towards the state: They worship civil power, without having the courage to expose that which is contrary to the truth, and they place themselves in the favor of a false liberty (cf. no.3).
 •A spirit of division: This is the most dangerous error because it is hidden behind a veil of charity and of mercy. They call the children of the Church, antiquated, slow and obstacles to progress (cf. no.4).

Liturgical Year – Dom Prospero Gueranger

SECULARISM. — The Church wants us to think today about the consequences of this universal call to faith in Christ. The nations, as a whole, have turned to the Lord, who brought them, with supernatural events, the benefits of a civilization completely unknown to the ancient world. But unfortunately, for two centuries now an extremely pernicious error has been destroying all nations, France in particular: secularism. This consists in the denial of the rights of God and of Our Lord Jesus Christ over all human society, both in private and family life, as well as in social and political life. The propagators of this heresy have repeated the cry of the deicidal Jews: We do not want him to rule over us. And with all the skill, tenacity, and boldness of the sons of darkness, they have endeavored to drive Christ out of every quarter. They have declared religious life immoral and expelled religious; they have tried to impose on the Church, albeit to no avail, a schismatic constitution; they have decreed the separation of Church and State and have denied civil society the obligation to help men to conquer eternal goods; they have introduced disorder into the family with the divorce law, they have abolished crucifixes in courts, hospitals and schools. And, finally, they have declared their laws intangible and have made the State a god.


Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, protect our families
