Treasures of the Catholic Church: 2000 years of Writings of the Saints and Martyrs in 5 minutes a day

THE WRITINGS OF SAINTS and MARTYRS. Compiled herein are short daily readings from 2,000 years of the writings of the greatest Saints and Martyrs of the Catholic Church. This new volume represents a portion of the sacred teaching of the Catholic Church found in the Liturgy of the Hours, also known as “The Office.” It highlights every Biblical quote and provides its Citation, making it easy to seek and find – as Jesus promised – the scriptural foundations for the teachings of these greatest icons in the Catholic Church. Over 200 authors, and over 40 martyrs, taught, and even died for, the Truth of the Faith, the unchanged and unchangeable Truth. Included are writings from St. Augustine, St. Ambrose and St. Athansius, St. Robert Bellarmine, St. Benedict and St. Bonaventure. Also included are Doctors of the Church such as St. Catherine of Siena, St. Teresa of Avila and St. Therese of Lisieux. Also included are martyrs such as St. Agatha and St. Agnes, St. Cecelia and St. Cyprian, and St. Stephen and St. Vincent. Also included are renowned Martyrs such as St. Thomas Becket and Bishop St. John Fisher. Among the writings is the diary of the North American missionary Priest/Martyr, St. John de Brebeuf, who wrote: “May I die only for you, Jesus, who willingly died for me.” Organized by Liturgical Season and Feast Days, this volume takes the reader from the first day of Advent to the last day of the liturgical year. Each day, each five minute writing, brings to life the One True Faith we once were taught. We were warned by Jesus: Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Mt 7:15 and “For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect.” Mt 24:24 We were warned by St. Peter: “But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.” 2 Pet 2:1 We were warned by St. Paul: “I know that, after my departure, ravening wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock. And of your own selves shall arise men speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.” Acts 20:29-30 We were warned by Leo XIII and his vision on October 13, 1884, and we were warned by Our Lady of Fatima, who prophesied and gave unto us the Miracle of the Sun exactly thirty three years later, on October 13, 2017. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. LET US RECLAIM OUR FAITH. After the last century of so many false vipers in the hierarchy, so many who not only have failed to teach Catholics the Truths of the Faith, but now openly and notoriously teach contrary to the Truths of the Faith, it is time to reclaim our Faith found in the writings of these Saints and Martyrs who knew: Truth does not change. Open this volume and begin. In short order you will find that the witness of Faith by these Saints and Martyrs will lift your soul to Heaven. You will read this and recognize the modernist heresies that have infiltrated the Catholic Church. You will be able to defend yourself against the ravening wolves who hound you from the parish to the papacy. God bless you and your journey deeper into the Faith upon which your eternal soul depends.
