Saint Paulinus of Nola (353-431 A.D.) wrote: "It is a truly spiritual desire to see the places where Christ suffered, rose from and dead, and ascended into heaven....The manger of His birth, the river of His baptism, the garden of His betrayal, the palace of His condemnation, the column of His scourging, the thorns of His crowning, the wood of His crucifixion, the stone of His burial: all these things recall God's former presence on earth and demonstrate the ancient basis of our modern beliefs (in the Real Presence; Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in the Eucharist).
