Can Anyone Say “Forever”?

FR. PETER M.J. STRAVINSKAS

Once a man has been ordained a priest, he can never again really be a layman. He has been “ontologically” changed, that is, changed at the very core of his being, just as in Baptism and Confirmation. The priest, therefore, is not simply a “marked man” because he wears a Roman collar; he is “marked” in a profoundly spiritual way — touching his very soul.
