  • Twenty Fourth Week in Ordinary Time September 15, 2019
    Twenty Fourth Week In Ordinary Time September 15, 2019 Our Lady of Sorrows From the Gusset The Catholic Church looks at St. Thomas Aquinas as Her greatest Theologian. When you see greatness M if you look behind the great there often times is another, who hides in the shadow. In the case of St. Thomas M the other is: St. Albert the Great M his teacher. The martyred good King Wenceslaus (easily the greatest Bohemian Saint) had his grandmother, St. Ludmila, teach him, his Catholic Faith. Grandparents are often that person who lurks in the shadow of those who are great. And that is why we celebrate the Holy Mass in honor of our Grandparents on the Sunday closest to the Feast of St. Ludmila M patron Saint (along with Saints Joachim and Anne) of Grandparents. History will never give St. Albert the Great or St. Ludmila or Saints Joachim and Anne the credit they deserve for their influence on their protégées or grandchildren, but we can. St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Wenceslaus would be first in line to honor their mentor, their grandparents. Let’s you and I be right behind them in thanking God for the gift of our Grandparents. Let us offer the Thanksgiving of the Eucharist to those who help usNnot only to learn our Catholic Faith, but also to live our Catholic Faith! This is also Catechetical Sunday and the first day of our CCD classes. I would like to ask for your prayers for the following generous individuals, who have volunteered to teach our students.

  • St. Robert Bellarmine on the Indirect Power
    ST. ROBERT BELLARMINE ON THE INDIRECT POWER JOHN COURTNEY MURRAY, SJ. Woodstock College N AN age that is being torn apgxt by a profound spiritual crisis in the I temporal order, it is inevitable that the problem of the relations between the spiritual and temporal should assume ranking importance. No one stands aside from this problem; everyone must adopt some solu­ tion for it. Secular theorists of the "new man" are urging the neces­ sary exclusion of the spiritual, in the traditional sense, from any in­ fluence on temporal affairs, and are enforcing on man his destiny to be the unaided creator of the conditions of his own free life. Christian theorists solve the problem in terms of their own concept of Christianity and the degree and kind of engagement of religion and the church in the affairs of this world that it permits or prescribes; the orthodox Lutheran or Barthian will differ considerably from the contemporary Protestant liberal or freechurchman. In Catholic terms, of course, the cardinal question is that of the spiritual authority of the Church over the temporal—its bases, extension, fields and manner of exercise, techniques of effectiveness, etc. This is an ancient question, with a complicated history; in the details of its answer there has never been, nor is there yet, complete uniformity of view. Writing in the sixteenth century, St. Robert Bellarmine said: "The fact that there is in the Pope a power in regard of temporal affairs is not a matter of opinion but of certainty among Catholics; although there is no lack of disputes over what kind and manner of power it is ..

  • St. Robert Bellarmine
    The Art of Dying Well by St. Robert Bellarmine (Translated from the Latin) OF THE VENERABLE CARDINAL BELARMINE THE REV. JOHN DALTON. London: PRINTED BY RICHARDSON AND SON, 172, FLEET STREET; 9, CAPEL STREET, DUBLIN, AND DERBY CONTENTS TO THE READER. PREFACE OF BELLARMINE. CHAPTER I. HE WHO DESIRES TO DIE WELL, MUST LIVE WELL. CHAPTER II. THE SECOND PRECEPT, WHICH IS, TO DIE TO THE WORLD. CHAPTER III. THE THIRD PRECEPT, WHICH IS CONCERNING THE THREE THEOLOGICAL VIRTUES. CHAPTER IV. THE FOURTH PRECEPT, CONTAINING THREE EVANGELICAL COUNSELS. CHAPTER V. THE FIFTH PRECEPT, IN WHICH THE DECEITFUL ERROR OF THE RICH OF THIS WORLD IS EXPOSED. CHAPTER VI. THE SIXTH PRECEPT, IN WHICH THREE MORAL VIRTUES ARE EXPLAINED. CHAPTER VII THE SEVENTH PRECEPT, WHICH IS ON PRAYER. CHAPTER VIII. THE EIGHTH PRECEPT, ON FASTING. CHAPTER IX. THE NINTH PRECEPT, ON ALMSDEEDS. CHAPTER X. THE TENTH PRECEPT, WHICH IS ON THE SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM. CHAPTER XI. ON CONFIRMATION. CHAPTER XII. ON THE HOLY EUCHARIST. CHAPTER XIII. ON THE SACRAMENT OF PENANCE. CHAPTER XIV. THE FOURTEENTH PRECEPT, ON THE SACRAMENT OF HOLY ORDERS. CHAPTER XV. THE FIFTEENTH PRECEPT, ON MATRIMONY. CHAPTER XVI. THE SIXTEENTH PRECEPT, ON THE SACRAMENT OF EXTREME UNCTION. TO THE READER. IN presenting to the public another volume of Bellarmine’s spiritual works, I trust that, like the one already published, (A Gradual Whereby to Ascend unto God," &c Jones and Dolman London, 1844) it will be found not unworthy of the venerable author’s reputation. He is not indeed equal to many of the great spiritual writers that lived about the time of the 1 Reformation; "Controversy" was his chief delight, his characteristic.

  • Saint Thomas More
    THOMAS MORE 1475-1535 Thomas More is one of the most universally admired personages of the English Renaissance. He is probably best known as the author of Utopia (1516) a witty description of a land where contemporary material values are reversed. More was a legal scholar, diplomat, government official and humanist author. In the circle of saints depicted in the chapel, he is the rare image of the Christian parent. More's rise to fame and wealth was steady. His father was a member of the legal profession, and he arranged for Thomas to be appointed page in the household of Cardinal John Morton, Archbishop of Canterbury. Morton had been instrumental in the deposition of Richard III and the elevation of Henry VII, who subsequently rewarded him by appointing him Chancellor. Thus Thomas was early initiated into royal politics as well as exposed to some of the finest legal minds of his day. He began his formal education at Canterbury College, Oxford, but soon moved to legal studies in London. At this time he demonstrated what would be characteristic of his career and his life: a deep spirituality that led him to reside for four years with the Carthusian monks in London's Charterhouse. Monastic life would not be his life's role, however, and in 1504 he married Jane Colt, who bore him four children before her death seven years later. His marriage shortly afterward to the widow Alice Middleton provided his children with a much-needed step•mother. During these early years, More emerged as the leader of a group of humanists who would leave a profound mark on the world of letters and educational reform.

  • St. Robert Bellarmine's Spirituality
    Brother Brian Dybowski. FSC, PhD St Robert Bellarmine Page 1 Santa Fe Institute for Spirituality, Summer 2017 St. Robert Bellarmine’s Spirituality Introduction St. Robert’s sermons were so powerful that people thought he was a huge man. The spiritual force of his personality seemed very muscular, because his sanctity engulfed everyone. He was morally large, even vast. His intellectual ability stretched way beyond his slight height. His holy life radiated profound spiritual knowing and loving. He inspired people because his vibrant soul overcame both his short stature, and his crippling illness. He thrived, not in spite of hardship, but because of it. He grew through disasters that destroyed taller men. He ex- celled against challenges that crushed stronger men. How did he flourish through exceptionally hard times? Fr. James Broderick’s biography: Robert Bellarmine, Saint and Scholar, reveals his inner strength growing through trials. St. Robert’s book: The Mind’s Ascent to God by the Ladder of Created Things summarizes his superlative spirituality. We learn his keen spirituality by liberally quoting this book. Highlights of His Life: 1542-1621 St. Robert was born October 4, 1542 in the small hill town of Montepulciano in Tuscany, thirty miles south of Siena. His family was noble, but poor, because wars with Florence and Siena bled them dry. They strove for independence from several city-states whose armies stormed through Montepulciano, impoverishing everyone. In spite of material poverty, Robert’s parents were pious, and generous to people less fortunate. Vin- cenzo and Cynthia raised five boys and seven girls. Robert was the third son.

  • Thomas Stapleton's First Polemic
    Thomas Stapleton’s First Polemic: An Impact Case Study Peering down from above the Catholic theology section of Bishop Cosin’s library in Durham are three early modern theologians. The presence of two of the ‘papist’ figures, painted in 1668-69, is entirely conventional: the Jesuits Francesco Suárez (1548-1617) and Robert Bellarmine (1542-1621) played an important part in shaping the intellectual culture of the Counter-Reformation. The presence of the third, Thomas Stapleton (1535-1598), is more of a puzzle. Quite plausibly the inclusion of the English Catholic exile (and one-time fellow of New College) reflected patriotic sentiment – the belief that even one’s fiercest adversary was on some basic level part of (or at least, educated by) the home team must have had some sort of appeal. At least, Anthony Wood (1632-1695) in his history of famous Oxford men felt compelled to call Stapleton ‘the most learned R. Catholick of all his time.’ The English Catholic editors of Stapleton’s 1620 four-volume Opera omnia, while mindful of the proverb that ‘a popular wine needs no ivy’ [i.e., no advertisement], similarly pressed some words of praise for Stapleton out of the mouths of his Protestant Oxbridge opponents. William Whitaker’s Cambridge colleagues had indeed lamented his bad luck, having fallen upon ‘such an antagonist; ... so stern, so invincible, so superior, to whom I would be as ill-suited a match as Troilus was for Achilles.’ Stapleton’s editors cut off Whitaker’s words right before he could resolve ‘that it was altogether necessary, unless I wished to be a deserter to the most excellent cause, to leave nothing intact of this [Stapleton’s] book in which our enemies so greatly exult.’ The world of early modern religious polemic was not for the faint-hearted.
