More wisdom from Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

 
 
 

You cannot argue or study or reason or hypnotize or whip yourself into faith. Faith is a gift of God. When anyone instructs you in Christian doctrine, he does not give you faith. He is only a spiritual agriculturist, tilling the soil of your soul, uprooting a few weeds and breaking up the clods of egotism. It is God Who drops the seed.

—Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

from his book, Go to Heaven

CHOOSE HEAVEN

Why is it, asks Bishop Fulton Sheen, that one hears so often the expression, “Go to hell!” and almost never the expression, “Go to heaven!” Here, at his most penetrating, challenging, and illuminating best is Bishop Sheen with his answer, in a book that breathes new meaning into the truths about heaven and hell, and new life into the concepts of faith, tolerance, love, prayer, suffering, and death.
