At a stadium celebration of the Feast of Divine Mercy in the Philippines (Sunday, Apr 7), many witnessed a very special grace, confirming the message of St Faustina: "Jesus, I trust in You"
I Googled the caption and came up with a number of hits. I've also found a few other self-proclaimed defenders of Rome posting this picture and text. Now, to Dr. Hahn and any other of Rome's defenders helping this go viral, why are you posting this picture without any relevant documentation? Why are you sure this is a God ordained miracle? Aren't such purported miracles supposed to be given a divine pedigree by your infallible magisterium first?
What I find interesting, is that the text posted by Dr. Hahn suggests this just happened a few days ago (April 7), however, this video clip certainly was posted a few months earlier:
So, is this the same event as that posted by Scott Hahn? Anyone um, check to see what the weather was like the day this video was posted?
Nah, probably not.

Never understood why anybody ever paid much attention to Scott Hahn.
From what I can tell from reading Protestant Pastors on the Way to Rome at the Trinity Foundation, he never really had a good grasp of the doctrine of Scripture in the first place. Which might kind of shoot one's ex-prot expert credentials in the foot.
But then again miracle, mystery and authority are always popular is some circles.

Thanks James,
Looking at this sort of crazy stuff, one can only cry out:
Reformasi! - Malay language for reformation :)

Yes, but sola scriptura is just ridiculous.
So now you're protesting a picture, there is no end to the nonsense.

"David"... thanks so much for sharing your feelings with your anonymous blog comment.
David,
The problem is not with the picture. That is obviously not what Mr. Swan is saying. The problem is with a mindset that finds confirmation for it's theology based on the interpretation of a rainbow behind a statue while rejecting the idea that what God has actually said is clear enough to be understood by the Christian. So Scott Hahn can interpret a rainbow, and know for sure that it is a "grace" from God, but folks like Mr. Swan, others here, and myself are castigated for thinking that God has spoken clearly enough in his word. The charge of nonsense in this case is clearly only rightly leveled at the Romanist.

My name is clearly there, how is that anonymous.
Andrew, What's wrong with folks expressing joy and wonder with experiencing Gods creation?
Yes, technically a first name is not "anonymous," but practically speaking it is.
Yeah, David, Hahn was simply admiring God's creation. Okay.
