The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ According to the Four Evangelists

"O Jesus, my Saviour, how worthy of love is Thy death, since it is the sovereign effect of Thy love!"This small book contains the Passion narratives of the four Gospels, as they traditionally appear in the Roman liturgy (i.e. from the Last Supper), as well as an introduction taken from St Francis De Sales. The four gospel excerpts are taken from the Doauy Rheims translation. This small volume is perfect for meditation on the Passion and Lectio Divina.The saints have always encouraged the meditation on the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ in order to grow both in our love for Him as well as in sorrow for our sins. "All love that takes not its beginning from Our Saviour's Passion is frivolous and dangerous"-St Francis De Sales"No one at all can humbly read or think of the passion of our Lord, although he should do so without much sensible affection, without reaping from this exercise fruit most useful for salvation; just as no one could touch flour or balm, even with the tips of his fingers, without having his fingers whitened with flour and perfumed with the odour of balm. Even if the image of Jesus crucified be only piously glanced at, the look will not have been in vain."-Blosius
