  2 1  |               heaven, Jesus the Son of God2 quite clearly had one aim
  3 1  |                his Creator; the Son of God would restore it. The children
  4 1  |                long-awaited Kingdom of God, but gave Himself besides
  5 1  |                a Victim unspotted unto God, to purify our conscience
  6 1  |             works, to serve the living God.3 Thus happily were all
  7 1  |            upon the path that leads to God. Thanks to the shedding
  8 1  |        sanctification, so rendering to God the glory due to Him.~
  9 2  |              shackles of sin, to offer God that unconstrained and voluntary
 10 3  |                finally, by offering to God, all Good and Great, the
 11 12 |             they approach the altar of God, professing the same faith,
 12 12 |            course, by the honor due to God. But the needs of our day
 13 12 |            pastors, while rendering to God the worship due to Him,
 14 13 |            person and his life towards God. "For He it is to whom we
 15 13 |              But man turns properly to God when he acknowledges His
 16 13 |               divine law, centering in God his every act and aspiration;
 17 13 |                worship to the One True God by practicing the virtue
 18 14 |             the sovereign authority of God.~
 19 15 |                virtue of the fact that God has raised them to the supernatural
 20 16 |              Thus we observe that when God institutes the Old Law,
 21 17 |               acknowledge the immortal God, "not withdrawing unto perdition,
 22 19 |            them aright, of offering to God the pleasing and acceptable
 23 19 |                saints and domestics of God, built upon the foundation
 24 19 |            together in a habitation of God in the Spirit."21 Thus the
 25 20 |              and petition we direct to God, as it is written: "Where
 26 21 |               and for the honor due to God. Among these latter rites,
 27 21 |                grace in your hearts to God."24 Next comes the reading
 28 22 |              way to raise the heart to God. Thenceforth the priesthood
 29 22 |             she consecrates those whom God has called to the priestly
 30 22 |           themselves to the service of God in the life of religious
 31 23 |              rendered by the Church to God must be, in its entirety,
 32 23 |               that "while we recognize God visibly, we may be drawn
 33 23 |             senses; and the worship of God, being the concern not merely
 34 24 |            people who pretend to honor God with nothing but neat and
 35 24 |          mystic union with the eternal God in contemplation.~
 36 26 |               clear to all, then, that God cannot be honored worthily
 37 26 |                the worship rendered to God by the Church in union with
 38 28 |                grace, on the action of God in the sacraments and in
 39 29 |          constantly consecrating it to God. Sacraments and sacrifice
 40 29 |               own, but by the power of God, are they endowed with the
 41 32 |            repentance and holy fear of God, of weaning them from the
 42 32 |               and fitly directs men to God; and by which they freely
 43 32 |           themselves to the worship of God in its fullest sense33 -
 44 32 |           especially be consecrated to God and exert its influence
 45 32 |           treasures of love with which God yearns to enrich us, as
 46 32 |        contemplation of the justice of God provoke us on occasion to
 47 33 |                Christ's, and Christ is God's."34 Let everything, therefore,
 48 33 |             everything to the glory of God through the life and power
 49 33 |               priest over the house of God; let us draw near with a
 50 34 |                that all who are called God's children may reach more
 51 36 |       opposition between the action of God, who pours forth His grace
 52 36 |                render vain the gift of God.36 No more can the efficacy
 53 40 | representatives of their people before God. This priesthood is not
 54 40 |         community before the throne of God, the priest is the ambassador
 55 40 |             the divine Redeemer. He is God's vice-gerent in the midst
 56 40 |            supernatural. It comes from God. "As the Father hath sent
 57 42 |           which men are sanctified and God is duly glorified in keeping
 58 43 |               it were, the instruments God uses to communicate supernatural
 59 45 |               the religion revealed by God.~
 60 47 |              The worship she offers to God, all good and great, is
 61 47 |            Augustine puts it tersely. "God is to be worshipped," he
 62 48 |           defining a truth revealed by God, the Sovereign Pontiff and
 63 49 |                beauty, to the glory of God and the spiritual profit
 64 50 |        instituted as they have been by God, cannot be changed in any
