Facts About ttie Catholic
sSk st m ..
WIIMI MMaBSUSBBSSBBSSSBSSlUSU
What do Catholics believe in re
tard to tb Bible? They believe that
It la the Word of Cod. divinely la
spired, but that the Catholic Church
alone has the power to Interpret It.
because God gave her that power.
That It was throusjh the Catholic
Church that the world obtained the
Bible has been proved, and tt wis
Christ Himself who said. (Matt. 21.
xiv. xx). "Go y therefore and teach
all nations. bnpUiinc them ta the
naine of the Father and of the Son
and ot the Holy Ghost:' tesehlntf
thio.U observer all. taiat-s whatso
ever f have conrtfianded you And 10.
I am with you all days, evea to the
end of tba world." The Catholic
Church therefore, contends thst the
Apostles and . their successors to
whom the command waa riven, can
rightly Interpret ' the Scriptures.
When Georce Washington ana nis
associates wrote the constitution of I
the United States, they did not say
to the people of the 'United States.
"Let everyoaexead the constitution.
Interpret tt to suit himself ana mass I
a government to himself," but a su
preme court was constituted to Inter-1
pret those laws with a supreme judge
to decide In matters of contention.
Otherwise- we should have had aa
much I confusion In the United States
as exists In retard to religion. It
would have been confusion worse
confounded. because there wojild
have been absolutely no norm ex
tant for guidance. In Christianity we
have that norm la the cat none
Church which - Christ establish as
the supreme court with a supreme
Judge both ot which la lafallhle
since Christ Himself culdes them as
He nromised to do. The Catholic
faith la a divine-faith while all other
Christian rellxlon rounded epw
man's opinion Is human faltn. xne
Catholic is not satisfied to have the
Bible read and-explained by anyone
and everyone, end la therefore con
sistent vbM be objects to the prac
tire of this In the nubile schools. It
is not that tfi objects to the publld
schools for Secular education as
many would have us think, out oe
cause he wishes to hsve only exact
ness and certainty In religion tan gut
his children not mere theory or
false principles. And tt Is because 01
this that the Catholic objects to at
tendance at other relljcious services
The anedueated la religion arenas
fallible In their beliefs as a little
child attending the prims ry schools.
Would you consent to hsve your
child attend various schools where
two plus two might equal five or ten
or anrthlnr else, or where It was
taught that It waa ol lltue impor
tance after all to know now mucn
two plus two equalled? The Catholic
knows he has the trutn. is ae a nisei
because he exscta obedience on the
art of his child la learning the truth
also? We know lull well tnat tne
average man thlaks he Is "broad
when it cornea to religious views. Pat
It ts a tact that la nlnety-alae per
cent of these cases he ts also extreme
ly shallow. He sets himself ap as a
Judge, where he has little knowledge
of any religion. The Catholic Churth
knowing herself to be the tearher ap
pointed by Christ Himself.' Is using
every means to brine all to the cor
rect knowledge or tne christian re
lic Ion. Therefore, "in season and oul
ot season." ahe is ever busy doing
the work her Master gave her to do;
she Is striving to Impart her doc
trines, admonishing her children to
lead truly Christiaa lives, and her
prayer are ever ascending for those
without the fold. She has exuted tor
nearly 200 years In spite of all her
enemies and like her Master she Is
always proclaiming that she Is nM
anxious for wordly honors, place Or
power, but her only desire Is to carry
on the work given her to do.
