Kudos to the RCC for passing on the saving knowledge

In his most recent book, Knowing Christ Today, Christian Philosopher Dallas Willard calls on the church to be communicators of the knowledge of Christ and of His way of life and His True answers to the deep questions of life. He says, "The task of followers of Christ is to know Christ and in knowing him, to make knowledge of God and of life in God available to those around them. That is what responsible people do with knowledge of any important subject. If you have knowledge on any matter of great importance to human beings, it is your duty to make that knowledge available to others." (Willard 195).


We protestants need to take some notes on the way our Roman Catholic brothers and sisters consistently make their knowledge of Christ, His Truth and His prescribed pattern of life known and available to the world. I commend this statement from the RC bishop of NJ. Once again making knowledge of what is true and right and good available in the face of a culture which will undoubtedly malign them for it.
