Tim Staples, solid as usual.

I was not aware of the following verse as a proof text for Church Authority, but how profound.

-— that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places. -—

The Church teaches the angels. How can this be? What does this mean?

Thankfully Tim includes Aquinas’ explication of the passage, which demonstrates why Aquinas is known as the “Angelic Doctor.”

Fabulous. Thanks for posting.

For anyone that’s interested, you can stream audio of Tim’s radio shows at Catholic.com

Easy to remember.

I don't know. Maybe something like RCIA classes for angels?

How do they sign up? How does someone know if the class is full?

How does anyone know if they show up for the class? Is it held in an empty room guessing that they're there?

How many angels can fit on the seat of a chair?

Who teaches the classes?
