Divine Grace – The Supernatural Organism – New Life, New Level of Action
Sanctifying grace develops in our souls through the virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit, which, together with it, constitute the foundation of our supernatural organism.
Actual Grace – Everything is Grace!
If we learn to listen to God’s voice in the silence of our interior, we will see how, at every moment, we are being inspired by grace to a greater union with Him.
The Axis of History
For Dr. Plinio, papal infallibility became the reason for his joy and delight. It was the gladness of the faithful person who found the one in whom to place their loyalty, and without whom they would be irremediably sad, for they would have no one to guide their steps.
The Antipopes – Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing
Over the course of two thousand years, more than forty men have attempted to usurp the Papacy for personal gain or in favour of impiety. Their story is one of the most beautiful proofs of the invincibility of the Church.
The Papacy – Guide, Model, and Hope
Over the centuries, the role of the Roman Pontiff has become increasingly clear and important. Infallible and supreme, does the Pope represent even more to the faithful?
Reasoning Based on the Principles of the Faith
Combining faith with common sense and a fondness for reasoning, Dr. Plinio became accustomed, from boyhood, to considering questions relating to the Church or Catholic doctrine in such a way as to intuit the solution even before it became explicit.
Faith and Reason – Multiplicity, Hierarchy and Harmony in the Universe
The constant battle between good and evil is reflected in history through the most diverse clashes. The victory of one over the other, however, is decided on the basis of a single principle, often overlooked by the good.
Reason in the Cloister
From the chaste union between faith and reason comes wisdom, which is nothing other than a participation in the very knowledge of God.
Looking to the Heavens, in Search of God
The more we explore the universe, the more evident man’s littleness and ignorance becomes. Even after so many centuries of research, many phenomena remain that science cannot explain.
Love for the “Unum” of the Holy Church
Even in his childhood, Dr. Plinio was able to discern, in the many aspects of the life of the Church that he was coming to know, the spirit that unified and gave life to the Mystical Bride of Christ.
