The best
way to reach any goals is through Jesus-Christ. Jesus thought how to go through
life apart of the world, and by so to be free of most condemnation and bless by
believing in him. Never the less we are all sinners and myself I must carry my
part of the world’s burden; so I criticize and I search for different solutions
for our surrounding. It is so simple when we put our trust in God. Jesus said
do not judge and you will not be judge. I believe that all sins can be pardoned;
we must repent of our sins and pray the Holy Ghost to find our better way.
In Quebec
the people are becoming more like the gentiles of the bible. Still trying to
create a sociable relation with everyone where love and fraternity can
flourish, where families can live in peace. Looking at the empty churches it
feels like we are putting aside our belief in God as if we can really succeed
without him… Really if everyone on the planet would love one another practicing
true charity we could wonder what becomes of all that is invisible because we
could be in Eden, still something would be missing for all those hoping in an afterlife.
It is well
to create a society that is good to live in but there will always be some
mishaps, there are those people like you and me that succumb to temptation and
those that make a career out of it, they distort all good reasoning and abuse
as much as they can may it be for luxury, cupidity, power etc. So we create
laws that are of course transgressed. Man as changed very little for thousands of
years and probably since its present form.
Charity may
be thought but to me all resides in Jesus-Christ. With Christ we can lose our
way and find it again like did the prodigal son. The churches in Québec are
abandoned and I can only put the blame on our servants the preachers and the
hierarchy of the Catholic Church, of course it is hard to obtain recognizance
from obstinate people. Like Jesus said: The first will be last; like the Jews
that wouldn’t open their heart or the workers that wanted more pay than the
others.
If the
Pharisees in Mathew 23 where to sever with what tended to the law, our
preachers did not ask enough of our laicism. Of course to err is human and I
believe that in Quebec the error was to mix religion with politics. Many French
speaking people are still looking for better recognition and others are just
too overwhelmed with our modern situation to really care or realize the
distress of so many others. I am not judging but what once caught my attention
was when a well educated preacher had a brief television appearance. He had a
way easy to follow and I thought how come we don’t see him more often? And I
said to myself they must be studying more for themselves rather than preaching.
Of course I did not know all the work he might have been doing nor how it works
with television deals…
Mathew
23, 1-12 New International Version
1
Then
Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: 2 “The teachers of the law and the
Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. 3 So you must be careful to do everything they tell you.
But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. 4 They tie up heavy, cumbersome
loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not
willing to lift a finger to move them. 5 “Everything they do is done for
people to see: They make their phylacteriesa wide and the tassels on their
garments long; 6 they love the place
of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; 7 they love to be greeted with
respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others. 8 “But you are not to be called
‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9 And do not call anyone on earth
‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. 10 Nor are you to be
called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. 11 The greatest among you
will be your servant. 12 For
those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves
will be exalted.
If the
Pharisees tie up heavy loads on other people’s shoulders, Christ is charitable
with his grace. The best way is showed so we must follow it but a small well
intended imitation is all ready good. Facts are that we must remember what is
true.
May the
grace of Jesus Christ be with you.
