The Precious Blood or the Price of Our Salvation

"It is out of the Precious Blood that men draw martyrdoms, vocations, celibacies, austerities, heroic charities and all the magnificent graces of high sanctity." The Sacraments are God's machinery for keeping His Precious Blood always flowing. In THE PRECIOUS BLOOD, Father Faber explores all the implications of the Precious Blood of Jesus in our lives and the devotion we should have for it. For "it is from the Precious Blood of Jesus alone that our salvation comes."
