“The priest comes. . not as an obscurantist, but wearing the intelligible vestments of living faith, divine but positive, ministering in Word and Sacrament that which is humanity's hope and salvation, the divine energy in which he lives with Christ in the Father through the Holy Spirit, identified but not accommodated to the world Christ seeks to save.” WorldSpiritHumanityFatherEnergyChristDivineHolySalvationHoly SpiritPriestsSacraments Author:Arthur Middleton
“The evil of the Church is the doing of Church work in a spirit of business, something to be got through. The only way to avoid this is for the priest to be instant in prayer. If he is not, he will lose that touch of the supernatural, without which he has no right to be a priest at all.” IfsWaySpiritEvilLosesChurchPrayerInstantPriests Author:Arthur Middleton
“Times have changed since George Herbert... but the principle and spirit in which he ministered as a priest remains an inspiration and model for all priests.” InspirationSpiritPrinciplesChangedModelsRemainsPriestsTimes Have Changed Author:Arthur Middleton
