Good Governance and Church

Dear Family of God! how are you? How have you been the last weeks? May we remind you about our previous topic which was about Good Governance, its theme and the types of Management of Church. We have also seen the un-doubtful significance of good governance for Church. Unfortunate though that our Church is suffering due to lack of Good Governance.

The True Light

The world was in darkness for 5500 years, for defying God’s law and no human could ever see the light before the redeemer Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Apostle Saint John has witnessed about the true light.

Mariology

Mariology is the study about Holy Mother Saint Mary. In this first section, we will see her perpetual Virginity and honor. Our Holy Mother Saint Mary’s virginity is twofold. She is virgin spiritually (eternally) and corporeally. She conceived and gave birth to her beloved Son our Lord Jesus Christ whilst being virgin. Saint Mary is the purest amongst all women ever created and thus become abode for God.

Above all creatures, the heavenly and worldly ones, even exceeding the angels, Saint Mary stands at the right side of God. She is bestowed the power of intercession and mediation for those seeking mercy, salvation and blessings. Saint David said accord, “At your hand stands the queen in gold from Ophir.” (Psalm 45:9)
