I do not doubt that all those who have received Baptism anywhere and from whomever do have Baptism, as long as it was consecrated with the words of the Gospel and they received it without pretence on their part and with some degree of faith. However, it would not avail them for their spiritual salvation if they were lacking in that charity by which they might be implanted in the Catholic Church.

Love is ever new because it never groweth old.

Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.

Now the Apostle, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, says, "Knowledge inflates: but love edifies." The only correct inerpretation of this saying is that knowledge is valuable when charity informs it. Without charity, knowledge inflates; that is, it exalts man to an arrogance which is nothing but a kind of windy emptiness.

Believe in order to Understand and Understand in order to Believe

The people who remained victorious were less like conquerors than conquered.

Lord Jesus, don't let me lie when I say that I love you.....and protect me, for today I could betray you.
