WHAT is SACRIFICE?

Sacrifice is the offering of an object
to God and the destruction OF the
same, to acknowledge His supreme do
minion and mans subsection to Him.
Sacrifice has universally been re-
garded as the very essence or divine
alteration and worship. 1t is, there
fore, of private as we'll as OF public
obligation. The individual must Of
fer his inordinate inclinatlons ON the
altar of his heart and destroy the
same by the fire of divine charity, as
a sacrifice acceptable to God He is
also bound to offer some external
sacrifice to acknowledge his depend
ence on God as an individual and as
a member of the community History
testifies that eternal sacrifice to COO
is as natural for man as homage to
temporal ruler. Even before the time
of Moses, while the family Religion
was still the true form of Religion,
man offered sacrifice to God. The
choice of the object sacrificed before
the time of Moses in all probability
rested with man. Thus we read that
Cain offered a sacrifice of the fruits
of the earth, and Abel of the firstlings
of his flock. Again we read that, a1ter
the Deluge, Noah sacrificed "all OF the
animals and fowls that were clean
to the Lord. Of Melchisedech 1t IS
recorded that he was a priest OF the
Most High and offered "a sacrifice OF
bread and wine" And of holy Job 1t
is said that, rising up early, he OF
fered holocausts for every one OF MS
children" When Moses promulgated
the law which now bears his name, he
at the same time prescribed solemn
liturgy, which has won the admlra-
ton of succeeding ages. Though this
divinely composed liturgy curta1led
many individual privileges, it typified
in many ways and foreshadowed the
great sacrifice of the Son of God on
Calvary.
As has been foretold by Daniel the
Prophet (ix. 27), the sacrifices of the
Mosaic dispensation ceased to be &C.
ceptable when that one true sacrifice
of the New Law was offered by Jesus
Christ. From that time unto the
present day only this "clean oblation,"
or sacrifice of the New Law, foretold
by Malachias, is acceptable to the
Most High. By this sacrifice, as st.
Peter teaches, Christ, 'the Priest for
ever according to the order of Mel
chisedech," through the instrumental
ity of His chosen priest, is offering
Himself to His heavenly Father from
the rising of the sun to the going
down thereof" (Mal. i:1D. Thus he
sis ever making intercession for u.s.
(Hebr vii:25).

WHAT THE TERM POPE MEANS

The word Pope, taken from the
Greek, originally was childish word
for father, and was first given as a
title of respect to ecclesiastics gener-
ally, says the Christian Family.
Among the Greeks at this day it is
used by all priests and was used, as
late at least as the Middle Ages, of
inferior clerics. In the West is seems
to have become very early special
title of Bishops. Gradually, however,
the title was limited to the Bishops
of Rome, and there is mention in the
Synod of Pavia, held in 99S, of re-
buke directed by those constituting it
against the Archbishop of Milan for
calling himself Pope. Gregory VII, in
a Roman council of the year 1913
formally prohibited the assumption OF
the title by any other than the Roman
Bishop. 1t is, of course, in the last
and most restricted sense that this
word is used here. BY the Pope we
mean the Bishop of Rome, who is, &C
cording to our Catholic doctrine, the
successor of st. Peter, and as such
the Vicar of Christ, the Visible Head
of the Church, the Doctor and Teacher
of the Faithful.
