SUSTAINING   THE      FAITH

The church, founded by Christ and bestowed to the apostles continues to this day in their successors, for the purpose of protecting, preserving, and declaring the word of God throughout the world, and that message entrusted to it is infallible.  If we consider the world in its length and breadth, its various histories, the greatness and the littleness of man, his short duration ‘ - - - The dreary irreligion, the intensity of sin:  All this inflicts on the mind a profound mystery, which is absolutely beyond human solution.  However with clearer teaching from the church the laity can be encouraged to change their attitudes to God and start coming back to Him.
