NINE DAY PREPARATION
FOR UNLIMITED CONSECRATION
St. Maximilian teaches rightly that the words, or the formula of consecration, are of small significance What is important is the desire to offer oneself as a limitless oblation to the Immaculate as Her “property and possession.” The words and formula are meant to assist us in this.
The Marian Consecration of St. Maximilian Kolbe is distinguished from the teaching of Saint Louis Grignion [de Montfort] especially on account of what lies behind it:
-
Not just the “Franciscan thesis,” but also the dogma of the Immaculate, with all its practical and theoretical consequences.
-
The universal end of “sanctificationem omnium” [sanctification of all],
-
The universal Mediation of the Immaculate,
-
The need to win the whole world over to the Immaculate.” (n. 796)
Thank you!! I appreciate everything that you do!! I’m very blessed to have found your site! You have no idea how much you have helped me out!
I came to appreciate all that Catholicism has preserved late in life, but the videos SF post online have been the best worldly companions over the past few years.
What great theological insights in these talks! So profound! Thank you SF for helping us grow in our consecration to our Immaculata. God bless you
