Proconsul (firmly): Estisne omnés Chrístiání? ________________________________________________________________

Virtus Rómána et Virtus Chrístiána ______________________________________________

The Romans had many virtues and the best of the Romans were upright and idealistic men. Among these

was the famous Roman orator and politician, Marcus Tullius Cicero. But they were not Christians and therefore

the great Christian virtue of humility was unknown to them. They did not, of course, have our personal

devotion to Christ nor our loving submission to God. Their ideal was a natural one, good in many ways, but far

inferior to the supernatural ideal which shines forth in our Master and our Model, Jésús Christ.
