Sacrifice
of the Mass |
"The
Holy Mass is the Sacrifice of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ
offered on our altars under the appearances of bread and wine, in
commemoration of the Sacrifice of the Cross." (Catechism of
Pope St. Pius X)
The
Mass is truly a propitary sacrifice, as promised in the old Testament. As the Catechism
of the Council of Trent states,
"Should we look for figures and prophecies of this Sacrifice
in the Old Testament, in the first place Malachy most clearly
prophesied thereof in these words: From the rising of the sun even
to the going down, my name is great among the Gentiles, and in
every place there is sacrifice, and there is offered to my name a
clean oblation: for my name is great among the Gentiles, saith the
Lord of hosts. (Mal. 1:11)"
Those
who deny that the Mass is a true and propitary sacrifice fall
under various anathemas. As stated by the Council of Trent:
"If
any one saith that in the mass a true and proper sacrifice is not
offered to God; or that to be offered is nothing else but that
Christ is given us to eat; let him be anathema." (Council of
Trent)
"If
any one saith that the sacrifice of the mass is only a sacrifice
of praise and of thanksgiving; or that it is a bare commemoration
of the sacrifice consummated on the Cross, but not a propitiatory
sacrifice; or that it profits him only who receives; and that it
ought not to be offered for the living and for the dead for sins,
pains, satisfactions, and other necessities; let him be
anathema." (Council of Trent)
"The
holy council teaches that this Sacrifice [of the Mass] is truly
propitiatory, so that if we draw near to God with an upright heart
and true faith, with fear and reverence, with sorrow and
repentance, through the Mass we may obtain mercy and find grace to
help in time of need (see Heb. 4:16). For by this oblation the
Lord is appeased" (Council of Trent).
Note
that in Mass, Christ is not re-sacrificed, but rather the
Sacrifice of the Mass is the same as the Sacrifice on the Cross -
that is, the same sacrifice is made present on the Altar in an
unbloody manner. There are not many sacrifices, but one Sacrifice.
"The Mass is the same sacrifice as that of the Cross."
(Baltimore Catechism)

Sacrilege |
"A
person sins by sacrilege when he mistreats sacred persons, places,
or things." (Baltimore Catechism)
"A
sacrilege is the profanation of a place, of a person, or of a
thing consecrated to God and set apart for his worship."
(Catechism of Pope St. Pius X)
"[T]he
sin of sacrilege consists in the irreverent treatment of a sacred
thing." (St. Thomas Aquinas, Doctor of the Church and
"greatest theologian in the history of the Church")

Scandal |
"Scandal
is any sinful word, deed, or omission that disposes others to sin,
or lessens their respect for God and holy religion."
(Baltimore Catechism)
"Scandal
is any word, act, or omission which is the occasion of another's
committing sin." (Catechism of St. Pius X)
"Scandal
is a grave sin because, by causing the loss of souls, it tends to
destroy the greatest work of God, namely, the redemption; it
effects the death of another's soul by depriving it of the life of
grace, which is more precious than the life of the body; and is
the source of a multitude of sins." (Catechism of St. Pius X)

(Baltimore Catechism) Note: Click

|
Scholasticism |
"The
philosophy that flourished during the middle ages and which is
personified in the Dominican St. Thomas Aquinas. It is the
philosophy of the Fathers reduced to a grand synthesis and
presented in a [morally instructive] form." (Catholic
Dictionary)
Scholasticism
has earned the Church's highest praise. For example consider that Pope
Leo XIII has said, "For it has come to light that there
were not lacking among the leaders of heretical sects some who
openly declared that, if the teaching of Thomas Aquinas were only
taken away, they could easily battle with all Catholic teachers,
gain the victory, and abolish the Church. A vain hope, indeed, but
no vain testimony." (Pope Leo XIII, "Aeterni Patris",
1879 A.D.)
The
system has been under relentless attack in recent years by
Modernists [Note that Pope St. Pius X called modernism "the
synthesis of all heresies" and called modernists "the
most pernicious of all the adversaries of the Church". Bl.
Pope Pius IX called liberals (modernists) "the worst enemies of the
Church"]. As indicated in Pascendi: "Whether it is
ignorance or fear, or both, that inspires this conduct in them,
certain it is that the passion for novelty is always united in
them with hatred of scholasticism, and there is no surer sign that
a man is on the way to Modernism than when he begins to show his
dislike for this system." (Pope St. Pius X, "Pascendi
Dominici Gregis", 1907 A.D.)

Scripture |
See

Scrupulous |
May
refer to those who "imagine sin where none exists or to
regard as mortal sin what is only venial." (Catholic Dictionary)
"The
signs of scruples are chiefly: (1) To be always dissatisfied with
our confessions; (2) To be self-willed in deciding what is sinful
and what is not. The chief remedy against them is to follow
exactly the advice of [a good] confessor without questioning the
reason or utility of his advice." (Baltimore Catechism)
Note:

|
Seal
of Confession |
Refers
to the confessors' grave duty of confidentiality regarding the
secrecy of information learned in confession.
"[T]he
confessor is bound by the seal of confession under the gravest sin
and under threat of the severest punishments both temporal and
eternal." (Catechism of St. Pius X)
Note:

Senses
of Scripture |
"In
the interpretation of the Bible the Church recognizes two senses:
(a) the literal sense, which is the objective, actual and
immediate truth which God prompted the writer to convey; (b) the
typical sense (also called mystical or spiritual), which is the
truth intended by God to be expressed by means of a figure or type
which itself must be a matter of historical fact; this must be distinguished
from any subjective sense. It is the office of the
Church to declare the sense of any given scriptural passage;
according to St. Thomas, the literal sense alone can be used for purpose
of argument from the Scriptures." (Catholic Dictionary) Note:

Sign
of the Cross
|
"A
confession of faith in Christ crucified and an invocation of his
blessing made by a cruciform gesture on one's body. By all Catholics,
except those of the Byzantine rite it is made by
touching the forehead, breast, left and right shoulders, with the tips
of the fingers and thumb of the right hand held together, and is usually accompanied
by the words 'In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost
[Spirit].'" (Catholic Dictionary) The Sign
of the Cross traces back to the earliest days of the Church, and
it is customarily done before and after various works (praying,
eating, sleeping, etc.) and at certain times (occasions of danger,
temptation, etc.) Note: Click

spiritual things that without the spiritual they cannot exist, for
example, ecclesiastical benefices, and so on, or a spiritual thing
that is, even in part, the object of a contract, for example, the
consecration of a chalice consecrated in sale. § 2 By
ecclesiastical law, simony is to give temporal things that are
attached to spiritual ones for other temporal things that are
attached to spiritual, or spiritual things for spiritual things,
or even temporal for temporal if, in so doing, there is a danger
of that irreverence toward spiritual things that is prohibited by
the Church." (1917 Code of Canon Law) Note: Click

State
of Grace |

state of the soul which is free of original sin and actual mortal sin. Its negative aspect is this absence of sin; its positive
aspect, the presence of sanctifying grace, with the virtues and
gifts of the Holy Ghost, implying the friendship of God and the
personal indwelling of the Holy Ghost." (Catholic Dictionary).
The state of grace is lost upon committing a single mortal sin and
recovered, sacramentally, by a good Confession (or, non-sacramentally, by perfect contrition). Note: For 'Mortal Sin' Reflections,

Tradition |
"The
sum of revealed doctrine which has not been committed to sacred
Scripture (though it may have appeared in uninspired writing) but
which has been handed down by a series of legitimate shepherds of
the Church from age to age. As revelation it must have come to the
Apostles directly from the lips of Christ or been handed down by
the Apostles at the dictation of the Holy Ghost. More broadly the
term is used for the sum of doctrine revealed either in Scripture
or by word of mouth; so in 2 Thes. ii, 14: 'Hold by the traditions
you have learned, in word or in writing, from us.'" (Catholic
Dictionary)
"We
must attach to Tradition the same importance as the revealed word
of God which Holy Scripture contains." (Catechism of Pope St.
Pius X)
Note:

The
Transfiguration |
"By
the transfiguration of Our Lord we mean the supernatural change in
His appearance when He showed Himself to His Apostles in great
glory and brilliancy in which 'His face did shine as the sun and
His garments became white as snow.' (Mk. 9:2-9)" (Baltimore Catechism)
|
Transubstan-
tiation
|
During
Mass, at the consecration, the bread and wine are entirely changed
into the Body and Blood of Christ. The change is so complete that
none of the substance of bread and wine remains, leaving only the
appearance of bread and wine [that is, the 'accidents' - e.g. the
appearance, smell, "the figure, the color, the taste, and
whatever appears to the senses" (Baltimore Catechism)]. This
miraculous change is called 'transubstantiation'. Although the
transubstantiation is not perceptible to the eyes, it can be - and
must be - perceptible "with the eyes of faith". Note: For
more information, click
here (Sacraments - Holy Eucharist / Mass) |
Treasury
of the Church |
Also
called "Treasury of Merits". Refers to the
"superabundant store of the merits and satisfactions of
Christ, which were beyond the needs of our salvation, to which are
added the excess of merits and satisfactions of our Lady and the
saints. It is from this treasury that the Church grants
indulgences." (Catholic Dictionary) Note: For

Trental |
Click
here for 'Gregorian Masses / Trental'
|
Tridentine
Mass |
A
'shorthand' term generally used to refer to the Traditional Latin
Mass. Note that the Traditional Latin Mass is often called the
'Tridentine' Mass, since its codification is tied to the Council
of Trent. In contrast to the Novus Ordo (New Order) Mass of the
1960's however, the 'Tridentine' Mass was not fabricated by
men. Rather, most of its central elements are said to trace back -
nearly without change - to apostolic times. Therefore, although it
is convenient to refer to the Traditional Latin Mass as the
"Tridentine" Mass, it is somewhat misleading. Note: For more information on the Traditional
Latin Mass, click

Triduum |
"Three
days" - "A time frequently chosen for prayer or for
other devout practices, whether by individuals in private, or in
public by congregations or special organizations in parishes, in religious
communities, seminaries, or schools. The form of prayer or
devotion depends upon the occasion or purpose of the triduum. The
three days usually proceed some feast, and the feast then determines
the choice of the pious exercises." (Catholic Encyclopedia)

BIG Book of Latin Activities For Catholics
Beginning - Intermediate (Vol. 1)

"Suitable For Children Or
Adults!" ~ "Perfect For Home Schoolers!"
+ + +
As many faithful Catholics already know,
the majestic
Latin language – the 'official language' of the Catholic Church –
promotes unity, helps safeguard the purity of doctrine, connects us with
our Catholic ancestors, allows us to pray in "one voice", and even ties
back to the inscription on the Cross which was written in Hebrew, Latin,
and Greek. The Latin language is still used today in the precious
treasure that is the
Traditional Latin ('Tridentine') Mass, in 'everyday speech' (much of
English is derived from Latin), in mottos, in specialized fields, and in
educational endeavors. It has been shown that the study of Latin brings
many benefits. "And, Latin is truly the language of heaven!"
If you enjoy Latin, you may be glad to know that
this full-sized (8.5" x 11"), tradition-minded publication features an
assortment of activity types related to Latin (including: word searches,
crosswords, coloring activities, challenges, fill-ins, spelling bee,
quizzes, unscrambles, true/false, multiple choice, matching, cross-offs,
circling, word associations, translation exercises, and more...), and
treats of various topics (including: common Latin words, Latin language
facts, Latin grammar, nouns & verbs, abbreviations,
phrases / sayings / mottos, prefixes, cardinal numbers, grammatical gender,
inflection, word roots, diacritics / accenting, pronunciation, Latin
prayers / hymns, Scripture verses, Catholic phrases, and more...).
