Our Lady said to Saint Bernadette: “I do not promise you the happiness of this world, but of the other world.” The “other world”, the “lasting world”.

The Lord says: "If it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then the Kingdom of God has come upon you!"

We know how this divine power has been at work in the Church for centuries. We have known the Lord’s power in our own lives.

Living in the 4th century, he moved from Rome to the Holy Land and settled down for the mammoth task of translating the entire Bible from Hebrew and Greek into Latin.
