The Sacraments Applied
"Is it necessary for a person to experience a number of these sacraments in order to have union with God?" "Within the Catholic faith," Bishop Steinbock explained, "one is naturally going to be receiving some of these particular sacraments. It’s part of being a Catholic. But if we are talking about other people who are not Catholics, I think God reveals himself to everybody in this world. Everybody is able to realize the existence and the love of God through the created things around them. So people who are not Christians certainly are able to experience the presence of God in their lives in many other ways. The Holy Spirit works in this world not simply alone through the sacraments, but he reveals himself through everything created. He reveals himself to us through other people around us, in many different ways. |
