The Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time

My dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in the diabolical, especially in the movies and on TV.  Most of these presentations are sensational and meant to freak out and frighten their viewers.  The presumption is that Satan is more powerful or at least equal in power to God, and that we can easily fall under his persuasion and control.  Since little is said among believers about the devil in the contemporary Church and little said in most religion classes about him, some, especially the young, are ready and willing to believe these lies about him.  The correct Catholic doctrine is that though the devil exists. in no way is he a power equal to God.  Sometimes it may seem that way, but the truth is Satan was defeated by Jesus Christ on the Cross once and for all.   He remains arrogant and will try to tempt us into sin, but his power and knowledge never was nor never can supersede that of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  (click here for Pastor's letter)
