If someone wants to understand how the earliest Christians practiced their faith, one of the best places to look is the ancient Christian burial sites known as the Catacombs of Rome. These underground tombs, used by Christians in the first few centuries, contain numerous paintings and symbols of the faith.

Archaeologists have found images of Jesus Christ depicted as the Good Shepherd, scenes from biblical stories ๐Ÿ“–, and even early images associated with Virgin Mary. These artworks date back to the 2nd and 3rd centuries long before many modern Christian groups existed. Their presence shows that sacred images were already part of Christian life and devotion very early in the Churchโ€™s history โ›ช.

For the early Christians, these images were not idolsโŒ. They were visual reminders of the truths of the faith. At a time when many believers could not read, images helped teach the Gospel and recall the saving work of Christ โœ๏ธ. A painting of the Good Shepherd reminded believers that Christ lovingly cares for His flock ๐Ÿ‘. Scenes from Scripture visually proclaimed the message of hope, resurrection, and salvation ๐ŸŒ…. In this sense, sacred images functioned much like illustrations in a book they pointed the mind and heart toward God and the realities of the faith โค๏ธ.

Much of the misunderstanding today comes from how some non-Catholic groups interpret the Bibleโ€™s teaching about images, especially passages like Book of Exodus 20:4. That commandment forbids making images for the purpose of worshiping them as gods โš ๏ธ. However, the Bible itself shows that not every religious image is forbidden. In Book of Exodus 25:18โ€“20, God commands the making of carved cherubim for the Ark of the Covenant. Later, sacred imagery also appeared in the Temple. This shows that the prohibition was against idolatry, not against the use of symbolic or instructional images ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ.

Because of this, the early Christians never saw a contradiction between their faith in the one true God and the use of sacred art. The images found in the Catacombs of Rome stand as historical evidence that visual expressions of the faith were present from the beginning. Rather than replacing God, these images helped believers remember Him, reflect on His saving work, and keep the story of Christ alive in a world where the Gospel was still spreading ๐ŸŒโœ๏ธ.

PARATANG NA TUMANGGAP NG MALETA SI FR. FLAVIE, PINASINUNGALINGAN NG OBISPO NG CUBAO

Nilinaw ni Bishop Elias Ayuban Jr. ng Diocese of Cubao ang isyung iniuugnay kay Fr. Flavie Villanueva, SVD, founder ng Arnold Janssen Kalinga Foundation, kaugnay ng alegasyong tumanggap umano ito ng maleta na may lamang pera.

Ang paglilinaw ay ginawa matapos ang pagdinig ng Senate Blue Ribbon Committee noong Hunyo 4, kung saan inakusahan ni Joely Cadiao, na ipinakilalang dating Marine, si Fr. Villanueva na umanoโ€™y nakatanggap ng pera. Ayon kay Bishop Ayuban, mali ang pahayag ni Cadiao dahil wala umanong parokya o simbahang pinangangasiwaan ng Society of the Divine Word (SVD) sa Mindanao Avenue at mga kalapit na lugar na kanyang binanggit.

Ipinaliwanag ng obispo na ang mga presensya lamang ng SVD sa nasasakupan ng Diocese of Cubao ay ang Sacred Heart Parish-Shrine sa Kamuning, Sto. Niรฑo de Violago Quasi-Parish, at ang Divine Word Shrine sa E. Rodriguez Avenue. Dahil dito, iginiit niya na walang sapat na batayan ang mga alegasyong ibinabato laban kay Fr. Villanueva.

Mariin ding kinondena ni Bishop Ayuban ang pagkalat ng maling impormasyon at ang pagpapalaganap ng mga hindi pa napatutunayang testimonya sa publiko. Aniya, ang ganitong mga pahayag ay nagdudulot lamang ng kalituhan at pagkakawatak-watak sa lipunan. Samantala, nanawagan siya sa publiko na maging mapanuri sa katotohanan at maging responsable sa pagbabahagi ng impormasyon. Nauna nang itinanggi ng Arnold Janssen Kalinga Foundation ang mga paratang laban kay Fr. Villanueva at nagpahayag na magsasagawa ito ng kaukulang legal na hakbang laban sa mga nagpapakalat ng umanoโ€™y maling akusasyon.

Pray for Fr. Rossetti.

The Archdiocese of Washington has removed Monsignor Stephen Rossetti from his role as an archdiocesan exorcist following controversial remarks he made linking UFO sightings to demonic activity.

On June 3, Cardinal Robert McElroy announced the decision, stating that Rossettiโ€™s comments โ€œgravely undermine the Churchโ€™s very precise teaching on the devil, demons, and exorcism.โ€ The Archdiocese has also ended its affiliation with the St. Michael Center for Spiritual Renewal, which Rossetti leads.

In a May 29 YouTube video, Monsignor Rossetti expressed his personal belief that โ€œmany, if not mostโ€ UFO sightings are demonic in nature. He has since made the video private and issued a statement expressing sadness over the decision, asking forgiveness if his remarks were not faithful to Church teaching, and reaffirming his commitment to obedience to the Magisterium.

Rossetti, a priest of the Diocese of Syracuse, New York, had served as the Archdiocese of Washingtonโ€™s exorcist for 19 years. In his response, he thanked the Archdiocese for its past support and said the St. Michael Center plans to continue its ministry elsewhere.

This situation has sparked discussion about the boundaries between personal opinion, spiritual warfare, and official Church teaching on demonic activity.

๐Ÿ™ The full statements from both the Archdiocese and Monsignor Rossetti are available on their respective websites.
