What is Truth?

Saint Augustine of Hippo: Defender of Truth

August 28, 2020 by Deacon Frederick Bartels Leave a Comment

St. Augustine

St. Augustine’s life provides us with an example of the sublime fruits of grace which Christ bestows upon those who fall in love with the Divine Teacher of Truth. In doing so, Augustine was drawn to the Catholic Church, the holy dwelling place in which the fullness of truth subsists through the ages.

Pope Benedict: Christ founded The Church In Order To Bring Answers To All Mankind

August 23, 2020 by Deacon Frederick Bartels Leave a Comment

chair of st. peter

From the Catechism: Christians of the first centuries said, “The world was created for the sake of the Church.” God created the world for the sake of communion with his divine life, a communion brought about by the “convocation” of men in Christ, and this “convocation” is the Church. The Church is the goal of all things.

Jesus Christ is the Truth Incarnate: A Sign of Contradiction In Present Times

May 16, 2019 by Virginia Fraguio Leave a Comment

Jesus Make Disciples of All Nations

Repeating the words of Pontius Pilate as he reacts to Jesus’ compelling witness, too many of our contemporaries ask: “What is truth?” As current events challenge our innermost beliefs, we feel compelled to search for answers about our human existence and the meaning of our lives.

Want To Find Peace and Happiness?

November 12, 2018 by Deacon Frederick Bartels Leave a Comment

The experience of the peace and happiness of “God that surpasses all understanding” (Phil 4:7), attained in freedom and loving obedience, is inseparable from love for the Truth, for Jesus Christ is the “way and the truth and the life” (Jn 14:6), whose gift of himself to humanity opens the way to the Father and the everlasting kingdom of God.

Pope St. John Paul II:

Jesus Christ meets the man of every age, including our own, with the same words: “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” These words contain both a fundamental requirement and a warning: the requirement of an honest relationship with regard to truth as a condition for authentic freedom, and the warning to avoid every kind of illusory freedom, every superficial unilateral freedom, every freedom that fails to enter into the whole truth about man and the world.  (Redemptor Hominis No. 12)
