"Salvation is From Our God...."-The Church in Crisis

In light of the latest disturbing news about yet more enormous pay-outs, from the Church,  because of child sexual abuse and negligence and how it was hidden and covered-up and allowed to continue, one has to ask, "what were they thinking," "how could they have put children at such risk"....It's all too bizarre, unreal and horrific.
And so thinking about and reflecting upon this Scripture verse from the Book of Revelation, it is apparent that the only one who can help the Church, at this low point in its history is God. Reform and renewal is needed, greater holiness for the clergy, religious and laypeople and common sense and pragmatic strategies to move away from this ongoing crisis, must be a priority for all pastors, bishops, cardinals and for Pope Francis.
As I read this quote this morning, I thought, yes it's only God who can save a wounded Church.
"Salvation is from our God and from the Lamb" (Rev.7:10)

Our only hope is the love of God, forgiveness, retribution, reparation, greater holiness, deeper prayer lives, penance and Christian hope and charity. Lamb of God have mercy on us.
