As Cardinal Mercier said : "When prudence is everywhere, courage is nowhere."                                                                                  From Cardinal Sarah : "In order to avoid hearing God's music, we have chosen to use all the devices of this world. But heaven's instruments will not stop playing just because some people are deaf."                                                                                              Saint John-Paul II wrote: "The fact that one can die for the faith shows that other demands of the faith can also be met."                                                 Cardinal Müller says, “For the real danger to today’s humanity is the greenhouse gases of sin and the global warming of unbelief and the decay of morality when no one knows and teaches the difference between good and evil.”                                                  St Catherine of Siena said, “We've had enough exhortations to be silent. Cry out with a thousand tongues - I see the world is rotten because of silence.”                                                  Chesterton said, “The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.”                                                Brethren, Wake up!

SAINT JOHN THE BAPTIST 10 - POWER AND JUDGEMENT

The final episode in this wonderful series, which fittingly brings our Patron into the context of Catholic England. Our gratitude to the Trustees and academic staff of the National Gallery, London. Let us remember to offer the intentions of our beloved country in our devotions in the coming Easter Triduum. A very blessed and holy Easter to you all!

 

Sancte Joanne Baptistæ, ora pro nobis et pro fratribus nostris.
