Seeking Truth Bible Study: Gospel of John (Chapter 13 Part 2)
Over the years, a number of saints have experienced a spiritual marriage with Jesus,
and Sharon tells us the story of Catherine of Sienna who suffered from the invisible stigmata in her union
with Christ. Turning back to the foot-washing, Sharon shows us the spiritual meaning of this story.
Before a wedding, the bride must be blemish-free, washed free of the stain of sin. Baptism cleanses us
from original sin, while reconciliation removes the filth of all other sin in our lives.
