Angels as slightly chubby little figures with wings
We will miss the majesty of this day
The Scripture tells us who this mighty archangels are
It was St. Michael who commanded God’s legions of angels
And cast Satan out from heaven
It was St. Gabriel who brought to Mother Mary the good news
The coming of our Savior
It was St. Raphael who healed Tobit
Delivered his daughter-in-law from a demon
These angels do great, holy works in God’s name
They also gladly watch over us
In the next life
We will mingle among them
As brothers and sisters
Praising God together with one voice
How blest we are to call them friends

Those books which were rejected by the Council of Hippo
Being non-biblical belong to what is called the Apocrypha
These books of the Bible
They are often well worth reading as they offer much historical information
Not otherwise available
However
Some of these stories
Slightly heretical tendencies
The Catholic use of the word “Apocrypha”
Defined aboveShould be distinguished from the incorrect Protestant use of the word
Protestants use this term to designate the seven books of the Bible included in the Catholic Bible canon
But not accepted or found in Protestant Bibles
These seven books are
Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach
1 and 2 Maccabees and parts of Esther and Daniel
Protestants call the books
Found in the Catholic
Apocrypha
The Pseudepigraphal books
