NEWMAN ON FAITH AND DOUBT

1T is true" says Newman, chat the
Church does not allow her children to
entertain any doubt of her teaching,
and for the reason that they are Cath

faith is incompatible with doubt.
Faith is the gift of God, and not a
mere act of our own which we are
free to exert when we will. 1t is
quite distinct from an exercise of rea-
son, though it follows upon it. may
feel the force of the argument for the
divine origin of the Church; may
see that ought to believe, and yet l
may be unable to believe and this is
no imaginary case; there is many a
man who has ground enough to be-
lieve, who wishes to believe, but who
cannot believe. 1t is always, indeed,
his own fault, for God gives grace to
all who ask for it, and use it, but still
such is the fact that conviction is not

1t is a frequent charge, the illustri-
Gus convert goes on to say in effect,
made by Protestants that converts to
1 Catholicity, once the first fervor is
over, feel nothing but disappointment,
WEAKNESS and offense in their new re
Iligion, and are secretly DESTROYS of re
tracing their steps. This arises out
of the irritation felt by the non-Cath-
olic opponent when he is told that the
good Catholic knows no doubt. Yet
it is true, says Newman, who had him
self gone through every stage of in
tellectual hesitancy, that it is not diff
ficult for a Catholic to believe, and the
real difficulty for him is-to doubt
He has received gift which makes
faith easy, and he really does violence

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. MICHAEL OF THE SAINTS.

Michael was a native of Spain.
While yet mere child he made a
vow of chastity, and when his father,
hearing of it, jestingly proposed mar
riage to him, he ran sobbing to our
Lady's altar, and there more fervently
reiterated his VOW At the age of six
he ran away from home to lead the
life of hermit His father brought
him back, and apprenticed him to a
merchant, whom Michael served faith.
fully, though he spent all his leisure
time in church, and was even then
found in ecstasy before the Blessed
Sacrament. When not yet twelve
years old he again stole away secretly
and this time entered the Trinitarium
Order at Barcelona, where in due
time he was solemnly protested. A
few months after his profession call
from God led him to exchange into
the stricter "discalced'' branch of the
same Order. The vow of virginity
which he had made in childhood, and
now renewed for life, was blessed by
God. He never had one temptation
of the flesh, or single impure
thought. Still he chastised his body
with constant austerities. For years
he deprived himself of bed or pillow
and literally had not where to lay
his head The Blessed Sacrament was
the aim of all his devotions. For il
he strove to be mortified, fervent
chaste; and his love at times forced
him to seek the open air for relief
He spent his life in laboring in the
hospitals and prisons, and died, aged
thirty-three, A. D. 1886.
Many persons condemned st
Michael's extraordinary devotion be
fore the Blessed Sacrament, calling
it exaggeration and hypocrisy
Among these was a careless prizes
named Fernandez. One day, whe1
st. Michael was preaching on prepare
ton for Holy Communion, Fernandez
sat by listening with inward derision
Suddenly he saw the Saint raiseC
above the pulpit, and heard him say il
a tone of great contrition, ''Woe, wot
is me-" These words, and the raptur,
that accompanied them, struck dec
into the heart of Fernandez, for h,
felt that they expressed his own state
He repented sincerely of all hi
irreverences towards our Lord, an,
for the rest of his life was fond O
repeating the words which had s.

SEVENTEENTH SUNDAY
AFTER PENTEcosT.

EPISTLE: Brethren, !, a
prisoner in the Lord, beseech
you that you walk worthy of
the vocation in which you are
called. With all humility, and
miIdness, with patience, sup
porting one another in charity
careful to keep the unity OF the
spirit in the bond of peace.
GOSPEL: Jesus said to him,
Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God with thy whole heart, and
with thy whole soul, and with
thy whole mind. This is the
greatest and the first command
ment. And the second is like
to this: Thou shalt love thy
heighbor as myself. On these
two commandments dependent
the whole law and the prophets.

from demanding the faith of those
who wish to adhere to them, they act
ually call upon them to enquire and
to doubt freely about their own mer-
it's. Faith under such circumstances,
says Newman, is not really faith, but
obstinacy, and so it is that when
pressed to explain themselves in re-
gard to their sectarian belief, they
ground their duty of continuance in
their communion, mot on faith in it, but
on attachment to it, which is very
different thing. Attachment is not
trust, nor is obedience the same thing
as looking up to the person obeyed
Nothing, says the great Cardinal, is
clearer than this, that if faith in Gods
word is required of us for salvation,
the Catholic Church is the only med
ium by which we can exercise it.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1913-09-06

that the Church does not come from
God, but because he is afraid that if
he listens to such objections without
reason, God will punish him by the
loss of his supernatural and invulner-
able faith. So it is that men who
have trif1ed with conviction and have
listened to arguments against the
known truth, become affected with a
deafness of mind, faith fails them,
and they become restless and unhap-
py and end by simply not believing,
it simply being matter of accident
what becomes of them spiritually.
Atheism is, as often as not, the fate
of those who will not appraise the
gift of faith at it's real value when
they possess it. "He that despiseth, y
says st. Paul, "despiseth not man,
but God who hath also given in us His
Holy Spirit"
Enquiry into the nature of the
truths of the Catholic Church must
precede faith and does not follow il
in the case of none Catholics, the re
ward being the grace of believing
given at last from on high. The
Church, however, forbids enquiry tt

Heart of my divine Redeemer,
Fondly beating 'gainst my own,
Make my heart Thy tabernacle,
Let it beat for Thee alone.
How can my poor heart dare venture
Thus to make so free with Thine,
For Thy Sacred Heart, sweet Jesus,
Does this moment rest in mine,
In it's blessedness and beauty,
In it's glory all divine?
If too bold l make, dear Jesus,
Thou has but Thyself to blame.
For Thy captivating sweetness
Draws me as a golden chain;
Draws me to Thy Sacred Banquet
With force I can't resist;
Then come in Thee confiding,
That my weakness Thou'lt assist.
Yes, 1 come, for Thou hast called me-
Trusting Thou wilt, too, prepare
This poor heart for thine own garden,
Make it beautiful and fair,
Plant therein the purest lilies
That shall yield perfume sweet,
Loves fair roses that shall ever
Heavenly fragrance to Thee
breathe;
Most delicious fruits of virtue
That shall give Thy Heart delight
Make these flowers and fruits grow
daily
Yet more precious in thy sight.
o, my Love! a thousand welcome;
To this poor weak heart of mine
Making it Thy tabernacle,
Making it Thy heavenly shrine!
For the angels, kneeling round me
In profoundest reverence bow
To adore the God of glory,
Resting in my glad heart now.
Would had their hearts and voices
With them hymns of praise to sing
Would I had the Heart of Mary
