Catholic Homilies By Fr Linus Clovis

We are obliged to believe that the Holy Scriptures written by the Holy Spirit are true. And even though they have been written by the Holy Spirit or perhaps especially because they have been written by the Holy Spirit they need someone to interpret them. Just as with great literature Shakespeare, Dante or even Caesar, they have written works but they need to be interpreted, they need to be explained. We can easily pick up Shakespeare read it and get nothing from it, because we have not been trained either to interpret or because the difficulty of the language or because we just don’t have that ability or gift. So we have scholars who spend years just examining human works, how much more so must it be for the Scriptures. But the Lord has made things very easy for us in as much as he has given us the interpreter of the Scriptures namely the Church which speaks with the Holy Spirit… For more homilies from Fr.
