Bishop Finn calls our attention to the war we are waging -- a constant struggle against Satan, the glamour of evil, and the lure of his false truths.
Bishop Finn is fully aware of what we are up against. "When you stand up for what is right -- you will be opposed." We will be hated by "powerful people"; rejected by those whose approval we most want; and misunderstood by many, even by those in our Church who purport to share our beliefs. The temptation, he says, will be to "avoid these attacks." Our response, Bishop Finn says, will tell us what kind of soldiers we are. Are we soldiers for life, or soldiers for death? There is no third way.
