Relics
      What is a relic? A relic is some object (usually a part of the body or clothes) remaining as a memory of a departed saint. Relics are to be honored by all the faithful. Even in the early Church relics were recognized. The wood of the cross was distributed to all parts of the world.
       Relics have been abused by people. Sin is the cause of this greed. People disguised as monks would sell materials claiming it to be relics. Relics are reminders of the capability of men to achieve holiness through Christ.
