In Tours, France, during the 1840's a young Carmelite nun received a series of revelations from Our Lord about a powerful devotion. He wished to be established worldwide--the devotion to His Holy Face. the express purpose of this devotion was to make reparation for the blasphemies and outrages of "Revolutionary men" (the Communists)--through whom God is allowing the world to be chastised for its unbelief--as well as for the blasphemies of the atheists and freethinkers and others, plus, for blasphemy and the profanation of Sundays by Christians. Specifically, this devotion is the divine tool given by God to defeat Communism, but it is also an instrument given to the individual devotee as a seemingly unfailing method of appealing to God in prayer--through adoration of His Holy Face and Name. Our Lord gave Sister Mary a short but powerful prayer called "The Golden Arrow," by which a person can "shoot directly into the Heart of God" to heal the wounds inflicted on It by the malice of sinners. The editor says this devotion brought St. Therese to her great sanctity. Anyone who is searching for a spiritual method for fighting Communism and its programs and/or who is searching for a virtually infallible method of prayer will be delighted with The Golden Arrow.

Before the Renaissance and Reformation, holy images were treated not as "art" but as objects of veneration which possessed the tangible presence of the Holy. the faithful believed that these images served as relics and were able to work miracles, deliver oracles, and bring victory to the battlefield. In this magisterial book, Hans Belting traces the long history of the sacral image and its changing role--from surrogate for the represented image to an original work of art--in European culture. Likeness and Presence looks at the beliefs, superstitions, hopes, and fears that come into play as people handle and respond to sacred images, and presents a compelling interpretation of the place of the image in Western history. -- Back cover
