“The Truth of Papal Claims, by Raphael Cardinal Merry del Val, which Preserving Christian Publications has recently reprinted . . . . is a worthy edition of an important Catholic work. I am most grateful to have a copy of the book.” His Eminence Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke
There are times when it is our duty to correct our brothers in all charity. In The Truth of Papal Claims you will observe the skill and wit of turn-of-the-century Cardinal Merry Del Val in fine apologetics. It is a small book that is a quick and enjoyable read and will remind all of us of the firm foundation of the Church. Replying to an Anglican theologian living in Rome in 1902, who had challenged this future Cardinal, then Archbishop Rafael Merry del Val responded with this book, providing a profound explanation of the true nature of the Church – founded by Our Lord on the Rock of Peter and his successors, and including all the Apostles with their successors in union with the Pope. These govern the Church, which is spread throughout the nations of the world, as living branches on that Vine that is the one Mystical Body of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Catholic and therefore universal.
