A former Rev Sister recently claimed that the work of Rev Sisters is to work as temple prostitutes and have sex with Rev Fathers.
Jesus Christ and St Paul in the Bible stated the role of Rev Sisters in the Church.
According to Gemini AI. ”Jesus spoke of eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven in Matthew 19:12. The verse states that some are ‘eunuchs who have made themselves so for the sake of the kingdom of heaven,’ which refers to a voluntary celibacy or abstinence from marriage for spiritual purposes.”
St Paul on Rev Sisters Not Marrying or Having Sex
According to Gemini AI, ”Paul doesn’t pull any punches in this regard: ‘To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single, as I am. But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion’ (1 Corinthians 7:8-9).”
Rev Sisters as Temple Prostitutes
Rev Sisters are not temple prostitutes.
Temple prostitutes according to the Bible stay beside pagan temples and sleep with anyone who pays them.
In fact, 99% of Rev Sisters keep their vows not to marry or have sex with anyone, including priests or bishops.
About 96% of Rev Sisters are virgins and they remain virgins for life.
There may be some Judas among them but they are just a small number.
Rev Sisters are only following the call of Jesus Christ and St Paul to live the way they do for the sake of the kingdom of God.
The Work of Rev Sisters
Their work in the Catholic Church is basically to pray for the Church and serve God in the highest way possible.
Without the prayers of the Rev Sisters, the Catholic Church would have been in greater problems.
Rev Sisters also work and own schools, hospitals, farms, bakeries where they make hosts used for Holy Communion, fashion houses where they sew clothes used by priests, bishops and other religious.
They also run and own Catholic bookshops, publishing houses and retreat centres. They also have leaders from among themselves.
So when someone tells you that the work of Rev Sisters is to be temple prostitutes and to have sex with priests or bishops or others, you know what to answer. Even if the person telling you that is a Rev Sister or former Rev Sister.
This teaching that Rev Sisters are temple prostitutes is not new. It was started by American Pentecostal pastors who intended to discredit the good work Reverend Sisters are doing and so drag Catholics to join their churches or ministries.
Don’t give a dog a bad name and hang it.
