I'm Catholic and doing a report on three different saints for religion class. One of the questions is:

What are the symbols of this saint?

I found the answer, but I don't know what the words mean:

Treatise on Spiritual Weapons

and

Revelations

<>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <><

Treatise on Spiritual Weapons and Revelations were both works (writings) by Catherine of Bologna. Treatise means a covering of a subject, discourse on it...basically someones thoughts on a subject that intend to look at all aspects. Catherine said, on the subject of spiritual weapons:

"Whoever wishes to carry the cross for his sake must take up the proper weapons for the contest, especially those mentioned here. First, diligence; second, distrust of self; third, confidence in God; fourth, remembrance of Passion; fifth, mindfulness of one's own death; sixth, remembrance of God's glory; seventh, the injunctions of Sacred Scripture following the example of Jesus Christ in the desert"

I don't know much about Catholic saints. I know they are supposed to be Holy people but without seeing the symbol am not sure what your looking for...

As for Spiritual weapons Ephesians 6:10

Helmet of salvation
sword of the spirit (Holy Bible)
Belt of truth
feet shod with the gospel of peace
Shield of faith
breast plate of righteousness

Check the internet for Armor of God or Ephesians 6:10

Well I cannot help you with the Catholic part But I suspect Treatise on spiritual Weapons is talking about the priesthood of God and Revelations is talking about the Holy Ghost. We the LDS church believe that God has ordained men to hold the priesthood of God and many different spiritual weapons are in the priesthood. Likewise we feel that the Holy Ghost is the responsible for giving Revelations.
