Thought For the Day

"There remains only one question to ask - why is this persecution so inevitable? It is inevitable because the Church, when it really is the Church, is bound to be the conscience of the nation and the conscience of society.  Where there is good the Church must praise; where there is evil the Church must condemn - and inevitably men will try to silence the troublesome voice of conscience.  It is not the duty of the individual Christian to find fault, to criticise, to condemn, but it may well be that his every action is a silent condemnation of the unchristian lives of others, and he will not escape their hatred."
