Penance and the Teacher
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 August 2024
Extract
The liturgy, or work, of the Church has two aspects under which, in the proper sense, we may regard it, and this because whilst Christ in physical body was incarnate as a single man, in his ecclesial body he some indwelling sense incarnate in many men, and these men, ‘the community of Christ's faithful’, perforce act sometimes individually and sometimes corporately. But whether acting corporately or individually, they must, as members of the Church, manifest the work of the Church. The solemnization of the liturgy, enacted corporately through the hallowed traditions and forms of public worship, is obverse of what is commonly called the private life of the individual Catholic.
