When people say, “I am spiritual but not religious,” are they serious? Separation of the two is not even fiction, which must contain some truth therein. So, spiritual but not religious? Gazing at mother earth is a spiritual experience, and church is not necessary. No, mother earth is not God. Still spiritual but not religious? At their particular judgments, dissenters will hear these words, “I am the bridegroom, and the Church is My bride.” This is frighteningly unavoidable. God’s mercy and justice are His, not mine, to give. His words are His, not mine, to speak. Christ and the Catechism are indivisible, and the Church, not mother earth, is His living body. When I step inside, I see all the statues - the more, the better - my living family, and on the crucifix is the Man I love, making me beholden to His Body and Blood. The translation of the praises in Latin, the language of unshakeable clarity, is very good. Sabaoth means the hosts of heaven.
Ad Magnam Dei Gloriam means To the Great Glory of God.
