Homily #100313ms ( 11min) Play -
In the story of Susanna and the Elders, and then again in the story of the woman caught in adultery, Our Lord shows how He came to bring about the triumph of His mercy.
By His justice He gives us what we deserve. By His mercy, He gives us far better than what we deserve, He gives us what we don’t deserve – He gives us life when we deserve death.

Ave Maria!

Sabellianism taught that the 3 Persons in the Trinity were not distinct persons but rather 3 different modes or offices that the 1 God appeared in. Knowledge of their error is helpful in dealing with those who believe that the Bible is the sole transmitter of the Deposit of Faith. Sabellius broke from Sacred Tradition and it was this that orthodox opponents used to combat him.
