In the early Church There were those “rigorists”
who believed that if you committed a serious sin,
You could not be readmitted to Communion.
Forgiveness however is not for the holy,
But for sinners.
And Pope Callistus knew this,
Pope Callistus therefore decreed that if any sinner repented and did penance for their sins they could be readmitted to the Church and Communion.
The doors of the Church are always open to sinners,
Like the loving arms of a mother,
To her wayward children,
Who want to come home.
God Bless
