Festivity of All Saints:
vision of Paradise


Our calendar reminds us every single day the name of one saint, which is equivalent to our name, "Feast Day". The Church gives very much importance to the feast of  All Saints that celebrates every year on the first day of November. This festivity reminds us the stupendous reality of the vision of paradise when the crowds of saints together with myriads of Angels live in the eternal vision the beatitude of God.

We catholics have a certain familiarity of the early earthly church accomplished in our daily life with the parish - the minister of God- the good and the charitable deeds.

When we hear to speck about the heavenly church we are perplexed because we do not have referable points to find with our understanding.

St. Augustin said "We can not separate the earthly church from the heavenly church".

Infact the liturgy calls the day of death "Dies Natalis" which is the moment we wíl) be borne to the eternal beatidude,because as St. Gregory the Great says "The Holy church has two lives : one earthly life and another eternal life."

The pagans that dici not have the concept of eternal life they had as a base of their existence the "Carpe Diem" that is "try to enjoy in every way this earthely life because after death everything will be over".

How sublime is our faith that reminds us the words of Jesus Christ who before returning definitively to God our Father said "I will prepare a piace for each one of you".



Let us conquere it with a honest and correct life with acceptance of daily problems; only in this way we wili be one day together with the saints in the eternal beatitude.



Lord help us to understand that the true realization is the one we become Saints; that we may be sustained on our way towards the heavenly City and help me to overcome the difficultys of daily life.

DETALHES SOBRE A
BIBLIOGRAFIA DE MATEUS
 

Para se entender bem um texto bíblico é necessário partir da personalidade descrita nas escrituras, do ambiênte da época, da sua familia e da sua posição social e cultural.
Quando se trata de uma personagem que viveu uns dois mil anos atrás seria uma ingenuidade confiar somente em documentos referenciais, como aqueles do nosso tempo.

LOS CAMINOS DEL ESPIRITU

Domingo 6º de Pascua.

Domingo 6º de Pascua.
 Evangelio: Juan 14,15-21

“Yo le pediré al Padre que os dé otro Defensor que esté siempre con vosotros, el Espíritu de la verdad”. Jesús conoce nuestra debilidad, pero no nos abandona. ¡Cómo nos consuelan estas palabras suyas! Ora al Padre por nosotros, para que nos dé el Espíritu. Ya no tendremos que preparar nuestra defensa, Él será nuestro defensor. “Vosotros le conocéis porque vive con vosotros y está con vosotros”. No estamos solos. Nunca estamos solos. El Espíritu Santo vive con nosotros, su presencia amorosa en nuestro interior le da a nuestra vida una dignidad y belleza incomparables. El Espíritu toca nuestras pobrezas con su aliento creador; su vigor, fecundidad, alegría conviven con nosotros.



WEGE DES GEISTES

Dinanzi alle croci

Image

Dinanzi alle croci
Lassù, su quel colle - il Calvario -
tre uomini, sopraffatti dal dolore,
 soccombono alla atrocità della morte.
 Uguale il supplizio, i tormenti, il terrore.
 Uguali le esecrazioni,gli insulti, le sfide.
 Molta gente li vide e li giudicò
come tre malfattori, tre delinquenti, tre ladri.
