Pope Callistus
Pope Callistus went from embezzling
to being a slave
to being imprisoned to the mines in Sardina
to Pope.
Quite a journey.
At the time,
There were those who taught that after Baptism,
If a person sinned, they could not be readmitted to Communion.
Callistus however taught that sinners could be readmitted to Communion if they repented.
Callistus had tasted the Mercy of God in Communion
And wanted to make sure that everyone else did too!
And so we should offer that Mercy to all we meet,
For who knows what they will become if we do!
