LETTER FROM THE PASTOR
How often do you think of Jesus as a divider? Many times, we think of him as the Good Shephard laying down his life for his sheep and gathering his sheep together. It is exceedingly rare that we think of him as the great divider. However, listen to what he says in the gospel, “Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division.” What is this about?
The short answer is this if we truly follow Jesus there will be opposition. To follow Jesus is to live a life of holiness that is counter cultural. Look at the second reading from the letter to the Hebrews. It is the part of the letter that is encouraging us and the early Christians to persevere in the faith just as Christ persevered in his mission to save us from sin and death by dying on the cross. The letter is clear, “let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us...”
To live a sinless life is at the heart of what it is to be a Christian, and it is not easy, and it is the source of much division. This is where Christ bring both peace and division if you look at it carefully. For the believer there is peace in knowing and loving Jesus and following him in our daily life. But there are many who still do not know him, love him, or adore him. There are some who are plain out against Jesus.
This is the source of the division we have a choice to make, one that has eternal consequences. This choice is then further divided into more choices starting with are we going to choose to believe that Jesus Christ is the Eternal Son of God who became incarnate for us, and for our salvation? There are many in the world who do not believe this or will not even investigate it. If one believes this next there is the choice to be his follower, to submit your will to his will, he is God after all. This is hard because we want to do what we want and not what anyone else wants us to do, let alone God. Then do we choose to proclaim him to the world?
This is where it all comes together. Faith and belief remain just quaint ideas in the head unless acted upon. When we act on our faith and speak about Jesus, sure some people will support us. Others may think we are strange, and still others will intentionally seek to make our lives difficult. Quite frankly, who likes difficulty in life? However, this is where we must persevere in avoiding sin and proclaiming Christ by the way we live and speak.
The second reading concludes with these words encouraging in our fight against sin, “In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood.” Meaning you are still here and alive. Unfortu- nately, we probably worry more about what people think about us than dying a martyr for love of God. This is the encouragement we need. We need to be able to not worry about what others think of us, but to say what needs to be said and to do the right thing. Imagine being in a conversation where things turn to gossip, what would it look like if we said, let's talk about something else? How much better would the world be if we truly struggled to not commit any sins, and to love God and neighbor as we witness to the love of Christ?
God Bless, Fr. Chris Reising
CARTA DEL PÁRROCO
¿Con qué frecuencia piensas en Jesús como un divisor? Muchas veces pensamos en él como el Buen Pastor que da su vida por sus ovejas y reúne a sus ovejas. Es extremadamente raro que pensemos en él como el gran divisor. Sin embargo, escucha lo que dice en el evangelio: “¿Pensáis que he venido para establecer la paz en la tierra?
No, te digo, sino más bien traer división”. ¿De qué se trata esto?
La respuesta corta es esta, si realmente seguimos a Jesús, habrá oposición. Seguir a Jesús es vivir una vida de santidad que es contracultural. Mira la segunda lectura de la carta a los Hebreos. Es la parte de la carta que nos alienta a nosotros ya los primeros cristianos a perseverar en la fe así como Cristo perseveró en su misión de salvarnos del pecado y de la muerte muriendo en la cruz. La carta es clara, “deshagámonos de toda carga y pecado que se aferra a nosotros...”
Vivir una vida sin pecado está en el corazón de lo que es ser cristiano, y no es fácil, y es fuente de mucha división. Aquí es donde Cristo trae paz y división si lo miras con atención. Para el creyente hay paz en conocer y amar a Jesús y seguirlo en nuestra vida diaria. Pero hay muchos que todavía no lo conocen, lo aman o lo adoran. Hay algunos que están claramente contra Jesús.
Esta es la fuente de la división que tenemos que hacer, una que tiene consecuencias eternas. Esta elección se divide luego en más opciones, comenzando con ¿vamos a elegir creer que Jesucristo es el Hijo Eterno de Dios que se encarnó por nosotros y para nuestra salvación? Hay muchos en el mundo que no creen esto o ni siquiera lo investigarán. Si uno cree en esto, luego tiene la opción de ser su seguidor, de someter su voluntad a la de él, después de todo, él es Dios. Esto es difícil porque queremos hacer lo que queremos y no lo que nadie más quiere que hagamos, y mucho menos Dios. ¿Entonces elegimos proclamarlo al mundo?
Aquí es donde todo se une. La fe y la creencia siguen siendo solo ideas pintorescas en la cabeza a menos que se actúen en consecuencia. Cuando actuamos en nuestra fe y hablamos de Jesús, seguro que algunas personas nos apoyarán. Otros pueden pensar que somos extraños, y otros buscarán intencionalmente complicarnos la vida. Francamente, ¿a quién le gustan las dificultades en la vida? Sin embargo, aquí es donde debemos perseverar en evitar el pecado y anunciar a Cristo con nuestra forma de vivir y hablar.
La segunda lectura concluye con estas palabras alentadoras en nuestra lucha contra el pecado: “En vuestra lu- cha contra el pecado aún no habéis resistido hasta derramar sangre”. Lo que significa que todavía estás aquí y vivo. Desafortunadamente, probablemente nos preocupamos más por lo que la gente piensa de nosotros que por morir mártires por amor a Dios. Este es el estímulo que necesitamos. Necesitamos poder no preocuparnos por lo que los demás piensen de nosotros, sino decir lo que hay que decir y hacer lo correcto. Imagina estar en una conversación donde las cosas se convierten en chismes, ¿cómo sería si dijéramos, hablemos de otra cosa?
¿Cuánto mejor sería el mundo si verdaderamente lucháramos para no cometer ningún pecado y para amar a Dios y al prójimo mientras testificamos del amor de Cristo?
Dios los bendiga,
