individuals, adapted to their ability, sex and national cultural
traditions, and should be conducive to amicable relations with other
nations in order to promote true unity and peace in the world. True
education aims to give people a formation which is directed towards
their final end and the good of that society to which they belong and
in which, as adults, they will have their share of duties to perform.”

....
.Christ the Lord, in whom the entire revelation of the most high
God is summed up (see 2 Corinthians 1:20; 3:16–4:6), having
fulfilled in his own person and promulgated with his own lips
the Gospel promised by the prophets, commanded the
apostles to preach it to everyone as the source of all saving
truth and moral law, communicating God’s gifts to them. This
was faithfully done: it was done by the apostles who handed
on, by oral preaching, by their example, by their dispositions,
what they themselves had received from the lips of Christ,
from his way of life and his works, or by coming to know it
through the prompting of the Holy Spirit” (Constitution on
Divine Revelation, 7).

fortify my hope, and purify my love. Grant me
the grace to see Your Hand in my affliction,
and to desire no other comforter but You.

punishments on account of his own sins. He tried with all his
might to redeem the guilty; lovingly he comforted the sick; he
provided food, clothing and medicine for the poor; he helped,
as best he could, farm laborers and Negroes, as well as
mulattoes, who were looked upon at that time as akin to slaves:
thus he deserved to be called by the name the people gave
him: 'Martin of Charity.'"

that.”
