Some Thoughts About The End Times
I just ran across my photocopy of a most remarkable passage which I discovered years ago in a book in the Montana State University Library. This book the name of which I failed to record - contained sermons of John Henry Newman and was published in the 1800s. The quote is taken from pp. 107 & 108; the bracketed, italicized insertions are mine (Fr Wolfe):
POSTSCRIPT
THE above expositions of the teaching of the Fathers on the subject treated, were preached by the Author (John Henry Newman) in the form of Sermons in Advent, 1835, and are illustrated by the following remarkable passage in a letter of Bishop Horsley s, written before the beginning of this century (i.e. in the 1700’s) ; vide British Magazine, May, 1834.
B. M., vol. v., p.520
June, 1838
Blessed Dom Marmion On Faith
Speaking in a general way, faith is the adhesion of our intelligence to the word of another. When an upright, loyal man tells us something, we admit it, we have faith in his word; to give one's word is to give one's self.
Supernatural faith is the adhesion of our intelligence, not to the word of a man, but to the word of God. God can neither deceive nor be deceived. Faith is the homage rendered to God as the supreme truth and authority. In order that this homage may be worthy of God, we must submit ourselves to the authority of His word, whatever be the difficulties our mind encounters. This Divine word affirms the existence of mysteries beyond our reason; faith can be required from us in things where our senses, our experience seem to tell us the very contrary of what God tells us; but God requires our conviction in the authority of His revelation to be so absolute that if all creation affirmed the contrary we should say to God in spite of everything: "My God, I believe because Thou sayest it."

THE VOICE OF CHRIST
MY CHILD, in this life you are never safe, and as long as you live the weapons of the spirit will ever be necessary to you. You dwell among enemies. You are subject to attack from the right and the left. If, therefore, you do not guard yourself from every quarter with the shield of patience, you will not remain long unscathed.

THE VOICE OF CHRIST
MY CHILD, do not trust in your present feeling, for it will soon give way to another. As long as you live you will be subject to changeableness in spite of yourself. You will become merry at one time and sad at another, now peaceful but again disturbed, at one moment devout and the next indevout, sometimes diligent while at other times lazy, now grave and again flippant.
