The Nobility of Jesus, Ideal of Christian Perfection

“Anyone who wishes to give love must also receive love as a gift,”1 says Benedict XVI. From a sacramental perspective, the priest fulfils this supreme precept of loving: every day, after pronouncing the words of the transubstantiation at Holy Mass, he holds in his hands the glorious Body of Jesus …

A Ship Without a Commander?

The Pharisees of the Past

Why was Our Lord not a Pharisee? Had He chosen to follow this path, He would have occupied a position of honour in society. His influence would have enjoyed greater scope, disputes would have been avoided and, who knows, He might even have been officially recognized as the Messiah and …

Conformism or Intransigence?

Conformism… A deplorable mentality at the root of so many disasters throughout history! It turned Lot’s wife into a statue of salt (cf. Gn 19:26), it led Aaron to make a golden calf at the foot of Horeb (cf. Ex 32:1-6), it brought divine reproof upon the piest Heli (cf. …
