RumoursOf"Downgrading"Saints

CHURCHAUTHORITIESinRomehave deniedreportsthatSt.Christophermightbe eliminatedfromthelistofsaints.

THEPENTECOSTALISTS

Q.:AsI'dliketobesureof myself,couldyoutellme somethingaboutthePentecostals?

R.:Pentecostalismisa generaltermcoveringan immensenumberofsmall religiousbodies,mainly Americaninorigin.They arethefruitofProtestant revivalistmovementsin America,datingfromabout the1850's.

Q.:Whatexactlydothey believe?

R.:Toanswerthat,one wouldhavetoknowwhat particularformofPentecostalismisinquestion.There aremanydifferent"PentecostalistChurches,"calling themselvesthe"Holiness Church,"orthe"Churchof God,"orthe"Four-Square Gospellers,"orthe"AssembliesofGod,"andmany others.The"Assembliesof God"constitutethelargest ofthem.

ThosewordsofPastor Thurianshouldbewell weighedbyyourLutheran friend.Butletusturnto hisunanswerableobjections.

GODALONE "OMNIPRESENT"

Q.:Hesaysthatpeoplein differentcountriesprayto Mary,thereforeMary mustbeomnipresent-an attributeofGodonly.

R.:Catholicsagreethat Godaloneisomnipresent,so thatcannotbeanunanswerableobjection,orCatholics wouldnotwastetheirtime prayingtoMaryandthe SaintsandtheirGuardian Angels.Thepointisthat these,althoughnotomnipresent,arepresenttoGod whoisomnipresent.This problemisnotanewone.

St.ThomasAquinasdealt withitover700yearsago inhis"SummaTheologies."

Heexplainedthatthose whoenjoythebeatificvision ofGodinheavenareconsciousinHisknowledgeof allthatconcernsthemselves andtheirrelationshipswith others.Theythusknowand areinterestedinthosestill strugglinginthisworld,and whoneedandasktheir prayers.Andtheyarecertainlynotwithout-the charitypromptingthemto heedthoseprayers.

Afterall,sinceGodalone isomnipresent,theangels arenotwithoutknowledge ofourcircumstancesinthis world.ChristHimselfspoke ofthejoyamongtheangels ofGodupononesinner'srepentance(Luke15;10);and whenwarningagainstcorruptinglittlechildrenbade usrememberthat"their angelsalwaysseetheface ofMyFatherwhoisin heaven"(Matt.18:10).What appliestotheangelsapplies toallwhoareinheaven; andthefactthatGodalone isomnipresentaffordsusno rationalargumentagainst

R.:ThatcreatesnoproblematalliftheChurchtells uswhatshedoestellus becauseitistrue.Togoon fromtherewouldleadto anotherquestionaltogether, namely,thatoftheteaching authorityoftheChurch.
