Truth deceives no man

 I resolved to know nothing while I was with you

except for Jesus Christ, and him crucified. - I Cor 2:2

"Let weak and frail man come here

in humble entreaty

to adore the Sacrament of Christ,

not to discuss high things,

or to wish to penetrate difficulties,

but to bow down

to secret things in humble veneration,

and to abandon God's mysteries to God,

for Truth deceives no man -

Almighty God can do all things."

St Paul of the Cross

Priest, Mystic, powerful teacher/preacher

Founder - Passionist Order
To the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience they added a fourth: 
to spread devotion to Christ’s passion among the faithful.

"It is an excellent and holy practice to call to mind and meditate on our

Lord's Passion, since it is by this path that we shall arrive at union with God. 

In this, the holiest of all schools, true wisdom is learned, for it was there

that all the saints became wise." From a letter written by St. Paul of the Cross
