The Strength of the Catholic Church

"Herein is the strength of the Catholic Church... She professes to be built upon facts, not opinions; on objective truths, not on variable sentiments; on immemorial testimony, not on private judgement; on convictions or perceptions, not on conclusions. None else but she can make this profession."



Venerable John Henry Newman

The Medicine of Immortality

Saint Ignatius of Antioch says that in the Holy Eucharist, we: "break the one bread that provides the medicine of immortality, the antidote for death and the food that makes us live forever in Jesus Christ." (Taken from the Compendium Catechism, pg. 97)
