Fight The Snake To Stay In Faith

June 17, 2021

From today’s reading…

But I am afraid that, just as the snake with his cunning seduced Eve, your minds may be led astray from single-minded devotion to Christ. Because any chance comer has only to preach a Jesus other than the one we preached, or you have only to receive a spirit different from the one you received, or a gospel different from the one you accepted — and you put up with that only too willingly.” 2 Corinthians 11:3-4

Paul knows the allure and power—and harm—of the silver-tongued devils who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls, which is why he warns us to focus on Jesus.

Jesus—and the Magisterium—knows this as well, which is why Jesus teaches us how to pray today in Matthew 6.

When you follow the advice of Jesus, Paul, and the Church, you’ll always be able to…

Stay the course.Keep the faith.Endure.

Now go sell something.
