St. Teresa of Avila and G K Chesterton show us what the goal of all writers should be.
St. Teresa of Avila:
-"And
as I think that Your Reverence, and others who are to see this, will do
what, for love of the Lord, I am asking you, I am writing quite freely.
In any other case, I should have great scruples about writing at all,
except to confess my sins."
-"So Your Reverence must take the
responsibility for everything beyond the simple story of my life (since
you have importuned me so earnestly to write some account of the favors
which God grants me in prayer), if it be in accordance with the truths
of our holy Catholic Faith; and if it be not, Your Reverence must burn
it at once -- I am quite willing for you to do that."
-"I will
describe my experiences, so that, if what I write is in accordance with
these truths, it may be of some use to Your Reverence; if it be not, my
soul will be disillusioned, and, if I am not gaining anything myself, as
I trust I am, there will at least be no gain for the devil. The Lord
well knows that, as I shall say later, I have always tried to seek out
those who will enlighten me."
G K Chesterton:
-"The greatest friend of Truth is time, her greatest enemy is Prejudice, and her constant companion Humility."
-"Sin has many tools, but a lie is the handle which fits them all."
-"Don't be "consistent" but be simply true."
-"The
only right way of telling a story is to begin at the beginning--at the
beginning of the world. Therefore all books have to be begun in the
wrong way for the sake of brevity."
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Mass and the Church as
well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and
the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
My good friend ( now deceased ), Mother Teresa of the Still River Mass convent , called me years before the McLucas story broke.

Tom A JULY 30, 2019 He, like many, defend the institution with the zeal that should be used to defend the Faith. Sad. What Mr. Voris fails to admit is that it is the institution of the conciliar fake church that is the biggest enemy of the Faith. Lynda JULY 30, 2019 Blinded by secular values and prestige of man. coastalfarm JULY 30, 2019 Please see the article “Unmarked building, quiet legal help for accused priests” Dryden, Mich. (AP) for the priest Mr. Voris defends, Rev.Eduard Perrone of Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church also known as Assumption Grotto, is co-founder of Opus Bono Sacerdotii.
