Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Moral Series, Vol. 5
He said to the Apostles: "All power is given to me in heaven and in earth." And again: "As the Father hath sent me, I also send you."
The power of the Church emanates directly from Christ. The Church possesses a threefold power. She possesses teaching power. She possesses the power of ministry. Then she possesses the power of rule and discipline.
By her teaching power the Church infallibly delivers to all men the doc trines of Christ. By her ministerial power she transmits to all men the grace of Redemption gained for man kind by Christ.
By her ruling power the Church directs and governs the faithful in all that pertains to religion.
