Holy Quotes

C
hristians are forbidden to correct the stumblings of sinners by force. …. It is necessary to make a man better not by force but by persuasion. We neither have authority granted us by law to restrain sinners, nor if it were, should we know how to use it, since God gives the crown to those who are kept from evil not by force, but by choice.

We can't have full knowledge all at once. We must start by believing; then afterwards we may be led on to master the evidence for ourselves.

From Jesus' behavior we learn a double lesson: that human suffering has a precise role to play in God's plan, and that it moves to compassion the Heart of Jesus. For He knows how much suffering can affect human weakness and put it to the test.
