I read Fr. Cusick’s A Priest Life blog every day. I find his brief commentary encouraging and enlightening. Today, for instance, he simply printed the first 13 verses of the Epistle of Jude – a si gel chapter Book containing a mere 25 verses n total. Why was such a short Epistle included in the Canon of Scripture? Because it contains wisdom essential to sustaining the Faith in the various days of darkness to come: warning and encouragement, the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a concise, single chapter book.

I am a convert to the Catholic Faith. As a Protestant, like most good Protestants, I was a voracious reader of Scripture and memorizer of important verses of the Bible (many of us memorized entire chapters, some even Books). The Apostle Jude wrote one of my essential favorite books of the Bible, along with his brother James who wrote my other favorite Epistle.
This book, the logic of this book, in hindsight, was likely a portion of what led me to conversion to the One, True Roman Catholic Faith. I saw riotous anarchy developing in the Protestant religion and no mechanism intrinsic to the religion able to sustain it from spiritual deformations and revolutions.
But Jude assured the Faithful that there was something above the impulses of Man that would collectively protect us from riotous spiritual impulses.
And there was the Roman Catholic Church, the same from age to age – Sacred Tradition guarded like a priceless jewel from theft and debauchery; the Pope and Aposstles all oriented toward the singular task of passing it on from generation to generation *intact and whole*.
*THIS IS WHY I CONVERTED*! And now, the Vatican II NuChurch appears in every way that matters *LIKE THE PROTESTANT CHURCH I JUST LEFT*. I recognize it for what it is, for sure. Which is why I am so sensitive to any deviations from Sacred Tradition, such as the destruction of the ancient and core beating heart of our Faith – The Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass at Calvary.
NuChurch exists almost exclusively for the purpose of *disconnecting* the RCC from all Her ancient Traditions and Dogmas – overturning the old and replacing them with the new. I did not convert to that. Protestant Churches do what the NuChurch is attempting sooo much better. I’d rather go back to that, than participate in NuChurch pale imitations and aping of Protestantism.
Everything that is true within Holy Mother Church must interconnect *perfectly* with everything that came before, ultimately leading directly to the words and will of Jesus Christ our Lord as explained in Holy Scripture and Sacred Tradition, codified in Her Dogmas, Canon Laws and multitudinous writings.
Thank you, Fr. Cusick and all Priests like you, who keep the flame of the Catholic Faith alive, according to the Epistle of St. Jude the Apostle.
