Spiritual Battles
From start to finish, the life of Christ on earth reveals how the devil pursued Him — from Herod to Judas. The ancient serpent is unrelenting in his temptation of priests to mock Christ, to cease the perpetual sacrifice, and to render the Church impotent. Indeed the Church would be impotent without her ministers of the Sacraments: no priests, no Eucharist; no forgiveness of sins.
