In today's epistle (1 Cor 15), St. Paul teaches on the first foundation of our salvation (faith!) and on the scope and purpose of apostolic authority. Christ gives His Church authority for a purpose: to teach, transmit, guard and defend the truth which He taught (deposit of faith). Church leaders are to faithfully transmit what they have received from Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture - and thus save souls. The vast majority of Catholics do not believe in the pope in a truly Catholic way, for our love and loyalty to the pope must be rooted in our more fundamental love and loyalty to Jesus Christ and the Truth! One of the major causes for the crisis in the Church today is the misuse and abuse of authority. Yet this also applies to fathers and mothers in the home. Man must hold fast to the truth in order to be saved. Pray for a greater love for the truth. Familiarize yourself with the Church's creeds and pray them. Use your authority well: to advance the Truth and love of God.
