The Monasticism



      I have known of a name Benedict since I was elementary. I heard about him from my classmates and my catholic teacher. I learned that he aided a lot to the development of papacy. I don’t have any idea about movement regarding Catholicism or the movement called Monasticism which he founded. I just know that they have also missionary in the form of monk. Also I learned that many churches have become money-centered even in the olden times. The pope demanded money from the people by his power and authority as pope. The corruption in the Church started even as a result of papal authority and development.
            Every time I remember about difference of the churches before and now I always think they were better than what we have today, but I was mistaken because they also have flaws. Just like we have today, they had same problem when a ministry is consumed by the greed for money, it is totally ruined. It’s been a concern in churches specially money factor. It’s just simple tool but when it overshadows the person he will be driven off from his beliefs.

            This truth is revealed in history. I fit will happen that someone will ask me about anything from the history of the church I can have answers to clarify factsrelated to this topic. Indeed God is an unchanging God.  Reforms and movements have been made to uphold the power of the papacy by the Catholics, but it is God’s plan that prevails.
