Tradcatknight: Fr. Campbell, “Steadfast in the Faith” (1Pet.5:9)"
Be “steadfast in the Faith,” says St. Peter (1Pet.5:9). Our Catholic Faith is our anchor in these troubled times. Nothing else gives such meaning and stability to our lives. It tells us that Jesus Christ is our Way, and our Truth, and our Life (Jn.14:6). But there has been a great falling away from the Faith in these times. Our Lord Himself predicted it:
“When the Son of Man comes, will he find, do you think, faith on the earth?” (Lk.18:8).
St. Paul calls it the Apostasy:
“Let no one deceive you in any way, for the day of the Lord will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and is exalted above all that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he sits in the temple of God, and gives himself out as if he were God” (2Thess.2:3,4).
