The Blessed Sacrament: the Centre of Immutable Truth Henry Cardinal Manning

Publisher Marketing: This sermon was given in 1864 at the consecration of the pro-Cathedral in York. This was recorded and is an excellent exposition of the doctrine of the Blessed Sacrament. Of the Protestants Manning says: "Having denied the substantial presence of Jesus, it was but consequent that they should deny also His Mystical Body, ... His Church." We have added a biography of Cardinal Manning as well, which is quite fascinating, discussing his conversion from Anglicanism to Catholicism. St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: "There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals!' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty!" We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers.
