PrivateRevelations

Somewillobjecttothe franknessofthedoctor's views,but,asfarasCatholicanddivinefaithisconcerned,heisonsafeground inmostofhisstatements aboutwhattheChurchdemands.Thefaiththatis requiredforsalvationisacceptanceofGod'spublicrevelation,notofprivaterevelationsreceivedevenby saints.Thefactisthatno privaterevelationeveradds tothedepositoffaithleft withtheApostles,butitis alsoafactthatGodwould *notmakeaprivaterevelationunlesstherewereexcellentreasonforit.Aprivaterevelationcanemphasizeaparticularfacetofdivinefaith,promoteavaluabledevotionsuchasthe ScapularortieRosary,or warnbothchurchmenand thepublicofimpendingdangersifsinnersdonotrepent. Thereisanumberofreasonsthatwouldmakeprivaterevelationsworth

while.Thetheologicalstand is,however,thatnobodyis boundtoacceptanyparticularprivaterevelation, evenonethatisaswidely publicizedasthevisionsto thethreechildrenofFatimain1917. PersonallyIbelievein Fatima,asdoestheCatholic publicingeneral.

VerySevereTests

Tooeasyacceptanceof visions,supposedlydivine locutions,etc.,isnotencouragedbytheChurch.Claims havebeenmadeinmany casestovisions,butonlyin themorepublicizedones doestheChurchmakeacanonicalexaminationof them.Hertestsareextremelysevere,andifshedecidesagainstthemherdecisionsoughttobeaccepted withoutquestion.Onecannotbeexcusedfromthe sinofsuperstition(worship ofGodinafalsemanner), andcertainlynotfromdisobedience,inrefusalto accept.adecisionagainsta petvisionary,andbycontinuanceintherejecteddevotion.

St.JohnoftheCross,the greatestauthorityonthis point,taughtthatvisions werenottobedesired,and infactwereifpossibletobe avoided.Thismightcomeas startlingnewstosome peoplebutalittlereasoning willprovethesaintright.Ourfightforsalvationis madechieflythroughthe theologicalvirtuesoffaith, hope,andcharity,andthe othervirtuesandgiftsinfusedintooursoulsatBaptism.Faithistheacceptance "ofthingsunseen;"itisthe beliefinGod'srevelationon theauthorityofGod,who canneitherdeceivenorbe deceived.IfIweretosee Christstandingbeforeme, itwouldbeawonderful thing,butitwouldnotbe sovaluableformeasif,receivingJesusChristinthe BlessedEucharist,Ipro- foundlybelievedintheReal Presence.Anyactofintense faithisworthmoretoan individualthanavision.

VisionsDangerous

WhentheChurchinvestigatesvisionaries,andthe probersareconvincedthat genuinevisionsorlocutions haveoccurred,noofficial stampisthusputonthe privaterevelationstoindicatethattherecanbeno flawinthem.Whathappens ismerelythattheChurch authoritiessaytheysee nothingagainstfaithor moralsintheincidentsreported,justastheChurch allowsherimprimaturto beplacedonabook,notto givebackingtoallthatis saidthere,butmerelytoindicatethatnothingadverse tofaithormoralsisfound.

Themysticallifedoesnot, initsrealessence,consist invisions,stigmata,charismatasuchasprophecy, healingthesick,etc.Such signsmightfollowit,but charismaticsignsarenot gracesthatofthemselves addtothesanctificationof thepossessor.Theyare meantforthebenefitof othersoulsandmoreorless indirectlyforthebenefitof theseer,whomayprofit fromthem,butwhomight profitjustasreadilyfrom hearinganexcellentsermon, seeinganextraordinarypicture,readingapiousbook, etc.Visionsdonoteffectan increaseofgraceofthemselves,butonlyindirectly. Godcan,however,giveextraordinarygracestovisionariesbymeansofmysticismorinotherways.

WorthyofCredence

IthinktheMiracleofthe Sunactuallyoccurredat Fatima,foroutstanding scholars,suchasthelate WilliamThomasWalsh,historicalexpertofAmerica (OurLadyofFatima,Macmillan,1948)andFatherC. C.Martindale,S.J.,England (TheMeaningofFatima,a criticalstudy,P.J.Kenedy &Sons,1950),madeamost searchinginvestigationof thequestionatthesiteand botharrivedatdeepbelief init.Onecannoteasilyescapethefactthat70,000 personssawtheMiracleof theSun,hadnoideawhat wastooccur,andthat evenscoffersadmittedin thecontemporaryanti-clericalpressthatsomethingex-traordinaryhappened.

NoCatholic,however, whorefusestoacceptthe storyofFatimaorofany otherprivaterevelationcan berightlyaccusedof lackingthefaithdemanded forsalvation.ACatholic Dictionary,editedbyDonald Attwaterandpublishedby Macmillan,aworkoffine scholarship,hasthistosay: "ChristpromisedthecontinuanceofmiraclesinHis ChurchandtheCatholic Churchhasalwaysanddoes nowdisplaythemandwill alwaysdoso.Thougha Catholicisboundtoaccept thisprincipleasamatterof faith, characterofeachindividualoccurrencemustbesettledby theevidence.Hencenoindividualmiracles,exceptthose mentionedinHolyScripture,areoffaith."

EvenIgnorantCatholics Don'tWorshipOurLady

BytheRt.Rev.Mgr.M.Smith.

Fourorfivetimesin recentweeks,Ihaveseen statementsmadebywellmeaningProtestantdivines thatmodernCatholicsare extravagantintheirpraise oftheBlessedVirgin.This isnottrue.

Everynowandthen,I receivealetterfromindignantProtestantswho wantmetogoonrecord rebukingCatholicsforadoringMary.Iassurethem thatCatholicswouldlaugh atmeifImadesucha charge.

MaryHadRedeemer

In38yearsofCatholic editorship,andinlengthy travelsintoothernationsas wellasthroughtheUnited States,Ihavenevercome acrossasingl,Catholicwho hadthewrongideaofthe Virgin.Welookuponher asacreature,whosesupernaturalgracewaswonfor her,asitwasforus,bythe deathofherSon,theManGod,onthecross.Inher case,itwc.rkedexclusively tokeepherfrombeingconceivedandborninsinor fromfallingintosin.Inour case,itliftsusfromsin, thoughoftentooitactsas apreventive.She,likeus, hadaRedeemer.

Whenwespeakofheras Co-Redeemer,wehaveno ideaofshovingasideChrist, forHealonewonthegrace forallofusastheRedeemerinjustice,whereas sheistheCo-Redeemerin mercy,asshepraysforthe applicationofHismerits tous.LikeChrist,shesufferedforus,butonlybecauseofHissufferingwas God'sjusticeappeased.HerroleliesingainingtheapplicationofChrist'smerits tousthroughmercy,for sheisouradvocate.Many timesweneedanadvocate tomeltthebarstograce erectedbyourownsinsor coldness.Thegrace,however,isalwaysthatwonby ChristinHisPassion.

Nomerecreature,under theeconomywilledbyGod, couldearnthatgrace.It tooktheSecondPersonof theBlessedTrinity,inHis assumedhumannature,to doit.OnlyGodcouldpay thepricethatGoddemand-

ed.Marycouldnotpayit. Sometimesoneseesin print,orhearsitsaid, thatMexicans,Italians,and others,particularlythepeasants,regardMaryasGod. 1,havebeenamongthese peopleandhaveneverseen theslightesttraceofdivine adorationdirectedtoward her.Thecultusgivenis simplythattoGod'sgreatest createdperson,anditisnot supremeworship,orthe !atriaweofferedtoGod, butasecondarycult,byperdulia,beyondthatgiven tothegreatestofother saintsortotheangels,but definitelynotdivineadoration.

HereticsGiveProof

Historygivesastriking proofthatCatholicsrefuse divinehonourtoanybody shortoftheInfiniteGod. TheAriansofthefourth century,inrefusingtoacceptJesusasequaltothe FatherinDivinity,still werewillingtogiveChrist asortofdivineworship. TheyregardedHimasa createdGod,asortofsubGod.TheCatholicChurch refusedtolistentosuch nonsense,andoneofthe greatestturmoilsinChristianhistorybegan.Catholics, afterrefusingtogivedivine worshiptoacreatedGodin theArianconceptofChrist, certainlywouldnottoday, orever,agreetogivedivine adorationtoMary.

MaryisnotaDivine Person,andhencecannotbe givendivineadoration.

Saint'sNotedReply

St.GregoryNazianzusin 382wrotearemarkable replytoApollinaris.He said:

"IfanyonedoesnotacceptholyMaryasMotherof God,heiscutofffromthe Deity.

"Ifanyoneshouldsay thatChristpassedthrough theVirginasthrougha channel,andwasnotfashionedinawaythatisdivine aswellashuman...heis equallygodless.

"Ifanyoneshouldsay thatthemanwasfashioned andonlyafterwardsdid Godstealin,heisalsotobe condemned...

"Ifanyoneintroduces twosons,oneofGodthe Father,theotherofthe Mother,andnotoneandthe sameSon,mayheforfeithis shareintheadoption."

Apollinaris,abitteropponentofArianism,wentto anoppositeextremein heresy.InordertoemphasizeChrist'sDivinity,he deniedHisfullmanhood, andheldthattheWord,the SecondPersonoftheTrinity,tooktheplaceofthe humansoulinChrist.The Catholicshadeverheldthat ChrististrueGodandtrue man.TobetrueGodHe

Butthisisthewoman whomorethan1,000times hassharedmysticallyinthe sufferingsanddeathofOur Lord.Thesilverjubilee ofherexperienceofthesufferingsofHolyWeekcame onGoodFridayof1951.On thatday,althoughshesaw andfeltthesufferingsof Christ,theusualbleeding didnottakeplace.This year(1952)thebleeding wasmorecopiousthanever before.

BytheRt.Rev.Mgr.M.Smith.

Fourorfivetimesin recentweeks,Ihaveseen statementsmadebywellmeaningProtestantdivines thatmodernCatholicsare extravagantintheirpraise oftheBlessedVirgin.This isnottrue.

Everynowandthen,I receivealetterfromindignantProtestantswho wantmetogoonrecord rebukingCatholicsforadoringMary.Iassurethem thatCatholicswouldlaugh atmeifImadesucha charge.

MaryHadRedeemer

In38yearsofCatholic editorship,andinlengthy travelsintoothernationsas wellasthroughtheUnited States,Ihavenevercome acrossasing',Catholicwho hadthewrongideaofthe Virgin.Welookuponher asacreature,whosesupernaturalgracewaswonfor her,asitwasforus,bythe deathofherSon,theManGod,onthecross.Inher case,itwerkc.dexclusively tokeepherfrombeingconceivedandborninsinor fromfallingintosin.Inour ease,itliftsusfromsin, thoughoftentooitactsas apreventive.She,likeus, hadaRedeemer.

Whenwespeakofheras Co-Redeemer,wehaveno ideaofshovingasideChrist, forHealonewonthegrace forallofusastheRedeemerinjustice,whereas sheistheCo-Redeemerin mercy,asshepraysforthe applicationofHismerits tous.LikeChrist,shesufferedforus,butonlybecauseofHissufferingwas God'sjusticeappeased.Her roleliesingainingtheapplicationofChrist'smerits tousthroughmercy,for sheisouradvocate.Many timesweneedanadvocate tomeltthebarstograce erectedbyourownsinsor coldness.Thegrace,however,isalwaysthatwonby ChristinHisPassion.

Nomerecreature,under theeconomywilledbyGod, couldearnthatgrace.It tooktheSecondPersonof theBlessedTrinity,inHis assumedhumannature,to doit.OnlyGodcouldpay thepricethatGoddemand-

ed.Marycouldnotpayit. Sometimesoneseesin print,orhearsitsaid, thatMexicans,Italians,and others,particularlythepeasants,regardMaryasGod. Ihavebeenamongthese peopleandhaveneverseen theslightesttraceofdivine adorationdirectedtoward her.Thecultusgivenis simplythattoGod'sgreatest createdperson,anditisnot supremeworship,orthe latriaweofferedtoGod, butasecondarycult,hyperdulia,beyondthatgiven tothegreatestofother saintsortotheangels,but definitelynotdivineadoration.

CatholicsandOrthodox alonecalltheBlessedVirgin theMotherofGod.Ifher SonisGod,whatelsecan wecallher?Todenyher thetitleistoprofessweak faithin,ortodeny,theIncarnation.Amotherbrings forthnotsimplyanature butaperson,andinthis casetheBabyborntoMary wasGod.

HereticsGiveProof

Historygivesastriking proofthatCatholicsrefuse divinehonourtoanybody shortoftheInfiniteGod. TheAriansofthefourth century,inrefusingtoacceptJesusasequaltothe FatherinDivinity,still werewillingtogiveChrist asortofdivineworship. TheyregardedHimasa createdGod,asortofsubGod.TheCatholicChurch refusedtolistentosuch nonsense,andoneofthe greatestturmoilsinChristianhistorybegan.Catholics, afterrefusingtogivedivine worshiptoacreatedGodin theArianconceptofChrist, certainlywouldnottoday, orever,agreetogivedivine adorationtoMary.

Apollinaris,abitteropponentofArianism,wentto anoppositeextremein heresy.InordertoemphasizeChrist'sDivinity,he deniedHisfullmanhood, andheldthattheWord,the SecondPersonoftheTrinity,tooktheplaceofthe humansoulinChrist.The Catholicshadeverheldthat ChrististrueGodandtrue man.TobetrueGodHe

mustbeinfiniteandequal' totheFather.Tobetrue manHemusthaveabody andahumansoul,likeours. ThehypostaticunionofGod andmaninChrististhe existenceofthetwocompletenatures,thedivineand thehuman,intheone Person.Hypostatichere meanspersonal;andhence webelieveintwonatures inonePerson,withoutmixtureofthesetwonatures, eachofwhichiscomplete. WeadoretheentireChrist, andhencebothHisdivine andHishumannature,but adorationalwaysgoesto thecompletePerson,and Hiscreatedhumannature couldnotbeadoredapart fromHisDivinePerson.

MaryisnotaDivine Person,andhencecannotbe givendivineadoration.

Saint'sNotedReply

St.GregoryNazianzusin 382wrotearemarkable replytoApollinaris.He said:

"IfanyonedoesnotacceptholyMaryasMotherof God,heiscutofffromthe Deity.

"Ifanyoneshouldsay thatChristpassedthrough theVirginasthrougha channel,andwasnotfashionedinawaythatisdivine aswellashuman...heis equallygodless.

"Ifanyoneshouldsay thatthemanwasfashioned andonlyafterwardsdid Godstealin,heisalsotobe condemned...

"Ifanyoneintroduces twosons,oneofGodthe Father,theotherofthe Mother,andnotoneandthe sameSon,mayheforfeithis shareintheadoption."

Strongerlanguagecould hardlybefound;itisthe typeoflanguagethatone maytracebackthroughthe centuries,however,about Mary,eventothedaywhen theangelGabrielmadeplain totheVirginherself"Hail, fullofgrace,theLordis withthee,blessedartthou amongwomen...thouhast foundgracewithGod."

Andthen,astheKnox translationputsit,theangel said:"Beholdthoushalt conceiveinthywomb,and shaltbearaSon,andshall callHimJesus.Heshallbe

great,andmenwillknow HimfortheSonoftheMost High;theLordGodwillgive HimthethroneofHis fatherDavid,andHeshall reignoverthehouseof Jacobeternally;Hiskinddomshallneverhavean end.ButMarysaidtothe angel,Howcanthatbe, sinceIhavenoknowledge ofman?Andtheangel answeredher.TheHoly Spiritwillcomeupon thee,andthepowerofthe MostHighwillovershadow thee.ThusthatHolyThing whichisbornoftheeshall beknownfortheSonof God.'' Protestantismislessthan Christianwhenitrefusesto sayoutright:"HolyMary, MotherofGod!"

IsStigmatistaFraud?
