The Foundation
A foundation plays a major role in the construction of a building.
A good and strong foundation keeps the building standing
Even when the forces of nature wreak havoc.
The Catholic Church is built and founded on the Apostles.
The men who lived with Jesus for three years.
Who heard His teaching and who saw His miracles.
And most of all who saw Him risen from the dead.
Any other church is built on sand and hearsay
And will not stand.
The Catholic Church goes back to the Apostles and we know this because the remains of the Apostles are all found in Catholic Churches.
But the Church is not built on their remains,
But on their living Spirit handed down to every bishop
Who is their successor.
This is what makes the Church Catholic and Apostolic Church.
