By a beautiful paradox of Divine love, God makes His Cross the very means of our salvation and our life. We have slain Him; we have nailed Him there and crucified Him; but the Love in His eternal heart could not be extinguished. He willed to give us the very life we slew; to give us the very Food we destroyed; to nourish us with the very Bread we buried, and the very Blood we poured forth. He made our very crime into a happy fault; He turned a Crucifixion into a Redemption; a Consecration into a Communion; a death into Life Everlasting
Fulton J. SheenScepticism is never certain of itself, being less a firm intellectual position than a pose to justify bad behavior.
Fulton J. SheenMany souls fail to find God because they want a religion which will remake society without remaking themselves.
Fulton J. SheenEvery child should have an occasional pat on the back as long as it is applied low enough and hard enough.
Fulton J. SheenThe world is rapidly being divided into two camps, the comradeship of anti-Christ and the brotherhood of Christ. The lines between these two are being drawn. How long the battle will be we know not whether swords will have to be unsheathed we know not whether blood will have to be shed we know not whether it will be an armed conflict we know not. But in a conflict between truth and darkness, truth cannot lose.
