As for Abraham, your ancestor, he looked forward to the day when I would come; and he rejoiced when he saw it


Es mi Padre quien me glorifica

Gospel text (Jn 8,51-59): Jesus said to the Jews, «Truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never experience death». The Jews replied, «Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died and the prophets as well, but you say: ‘Whoever keeps my word will never experience death’. Who do you claim to be? Do you claim to be greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets also died». Then Jesus said, «If I were to praise myself, it would count for nothing. But he who gives glory to me is the Father, the very one you claim as your God, although you don't know him. I know him and if I were to say that I don't know him, I would be a liar like you. But I know him and I keep his word. As for Abraham, your ancestor, he looked forward to the day when I would come; and he rejoiced when he saw it». The Jews then said to him, «You are not yet fifty years old and you have seen Abraham?». And Jesus said «Truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.». They then picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and left the Temple.

  A note to Helena Jaczek, MP from Markham. There must be serious worries that an election will happen very soon rather than later. Thanks God for His infinite mercy. Our people is suffering long enough under the yoke of the Liberal/NDP coalition. Since all the destruction you fostered and promoted, yes, you included. Or you think for a moment we are going to see you somewhere outside the circle of death that suffocates Canada?  Oh! But you are focused on Ukraine, and the pandemic ad what else, of course, the climate change, all of which are secondary to the freedom the people needs to enjoy, because God created us all, each and everyone of us free, with free will and with the ability to think, grow and prosper on our own, all suppressed by your government. Have you ever for a moment stopped to think about the suffering of the people?  Now you want to display yourself as a hard working individual ready to work… Is not that a bit, no, a lot, hypocritical? Oops. Are you off...

Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife

Gospel text ( Mathew 1,16.18-21.24a): Jacob was the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and from her came Jesus who is called the Christ ­—the Messiah. This is how Jesus Christ was born. Mary his mother had been given to Joseph in marriage but before they lived together, she was found to be preg­nant through the Holy Spirit. Then Joseph, her husband, made plans to divorce her in all secrecy. He was an upright man, and in no way did he want to discredit her. While he was pondering over this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, «Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. She has conceived by the Holy Spirit, and now she will bear a son. You shall call him “Jesus” for he will save his people from their sins». When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had told him to do and he took his wife to his home.

Illegal Aliens, In-State Tuition and the Law

Immigration is a tool for political manipulation and obtaining cheap votes. Well, maybe not so cheap, given the amount of damage the 'ideal' foments and produces on many areas. The matter though is that too many byproducts of 'immigration' are constantly exploited for or against while all of them are not the point that should really be resolved.
