Fr. Mike Schmitz: The Devil’s Fall and Mary’s Rise
(View segment from :07 to 2:48)
What 2 things were the cause of Satan's fall?
- His pride and disobedience.
If you want to be raised up like Mary, what 2 things do you need to do?
- Be humble by having a modest estimate of your own worth (as a loved child of God), and by submitting yourself to God and your superiors. (cf. Catholic Encyclopedia)
- Be obedient to God by seeking to do His Will in all things.
