Excerpt from Spiritual Sacrifice MY aim in these lectures is not to display a scholarship which I do not possess, and for which I have had no opportunity, but to use the ordinary reading of an ordirfary priest for a practical and pastoral purpose. The need of the day is to summon men to the Cross and to the Altar of Christ, and to show them that worship means self-abandonment, and is not only for edification or for obtaining grace. I find them thinking of religion as the handmaid of righteousness. I find even those who profess devo tionto the Eucharistic Sacrifice thinking of it as the offering. Of Christ's sacramental presence with a view to their own perfection and salvation. Sel fishness in religion is the worst, as well as the most insidious, of all forms of selfishness.
