Catechesis: Ap XXIV THE MASS

By the blessing of God, the priests in our churches pay attention to the ministry of the Word, they teach the Gospel of the blessings of Christ, and they show that the forgiveness of sins comes freely for Christ’s sake. This teaching really consoles consciences. They add to it the teaching of the good works which God commands, and they talk about the value and use of the sacraments.—Ap XXIV:48

The real adornment of the churches is godly, practical, and clear teaching, the godly use of the sacraments, ardent prayer and the like. Candles, golden vessels, and ornaments like that are fitting, but they are not the peculiar adornment of the church.—Ap XXIV:51
