If Christ does not reign over the mundane events in our lives, He does not reign at all.

The word “apostle” literally means “one who is sent”. But the reason for being sent can vary, and this reason therefore qualifies the type of apostolic ministry. For example, this Gospel passage comes from the ninth chapter of Luke (which is 24 chapters long). Here, the apostles are not being sent t... (www.catholic365.com)

Works of righteousness, what are they?

the Catholic Church teaches that we are not literally saved by our faith and works.

Clinging to the Soul?

The Book of Isaiah (55:2) says, "Why spend money on what is not bread and your labor on what does not satisfy?" It seems as Jesus wants us to be satisfied with the eternal life and allowing Him to part of our daily lives. By following the Cannon Law, we are not supposed to eat or drink one hour bef...
