30th Sunday “over a year”-year C<\/span><\/u><\/center><\/td>\n

Jesus said this parable about those who think they are righteous and despise others: ‘Two people went to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee; the other was a toll collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed about himself: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people: like the tax collector, unrighteous, or an adulterer, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give away a tenth of all I possess.” The tax collector stood at the back, not daring to lift his eyes to the sky, but beating his breast and saying, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’ I tell you, it was the tax collector who went home justified, not the Pharisee. Everyone who is lifted will be humbled, and everyone who is humbled will be lifted. If we want to convey something important to someone, we use an example. An example speaks volumes. Teachers in schools also use examples. Pupils will remember their lectures first. Priests are often pleasantly surprised at meetings of believers when they remember the example of the homily, even though they had heard it many years ago.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Jesus also knew this principle very well, so it was often used as an example or in similar ways. <\/span>Otherwise, it is not even on today’s Sunday, and because it has sounded the parable, we know that Jesus wants something very important to say.<\/span><\/strong>
We first imagine performers in the parable. <\/span><\/strong>
Pharisee was convinced that he was not a sinner, as other people and to this integrity adds a number of good deeds. <\/span>Because the law of Moses was fulfilled and was also charitable, nothing would ask from God. <\/span>Before God was self-sufficient. <\/span>Maybe someone would have expected that Jesus praise this man. <\/span>For his actions he must enjoy God: it protects the sin, avoids evil, doing good deeds, and gives to church goals, he will. <\/span>The opposite is true. The Pharisee<\/span> broke it down by saying that for his “perfection” he acquired to God and to the neighbor’s evil relationship. <\/span>Before God felt to be self-sufficient, and therefore he did not need him and the neighbor felt to be superior, despised by him and was convinced that he was not equal. <\/span>That was a Pharisee’s big mistake! <\/span>Jesus, in <\/span><\/span><\/strong>his doctrine, places love for God and neighbor in first place. <\/span><\/span>But when he lacked this love, he could even be a hundred times “perfect” and left the temple without God’s favor.<\/span><\/span>
The toll was a sinner and not anything! <\/span>He co-labored with the Roman occupation power and made it even richer. <\/span>When removing the toll, he was well caught, so he had it for himself, so he all hated him and considered the thief. <\/span>When he then came to the temple, he felt like a thief. <\/span>Therefore, it remained at the back of the corner. <\/span>From there he had a good view of the idolizing Pharisees. <\/span>Surely he thought, “he is the highest degree of perfection before God. <\/span>He is godly, he’s regularly praying, does not steal, and still gives. <\/span>I am not even at the lowest degree of perfection because I am a sinner. <\/span>A good man avoids me, people are refusing to talk to me, condemns me. <\/span>I am the last person in this company and if they did not protect me with the Romans, surely someone would have taken away from this world. ” <\/span>He realized that he had fallen in his own fault, and therefore he did not dare to raise his head to heaven, and he could only be caught up: “God, either Gracious me sinners.” <\/span>However, when he exited and his sighting came from a heartfelt heart, Jesus says, “This left home apologized and not one over there. <\/span>For everyone who is uplift, will be humiliated, and who is humiliated will be promoted. ” <\/span>Let’s be careful! <\/span>Jesus does not let the colabor ship of the toll, nor its enrichment. <\/span>He praised his humiliated mind ping, praise that he needs God. <\/span>It is valuable before Jesus, so very valuable to the human soul that it outdoes all the sins. <\/span>God does not see the sins of a person who is guilty of humility.<\/span><\/strong>
We said that when Jesus wanted to draw attention to something important, he spoke of parables. <\/span>So what does he want to refer us to? <\/span>We realize our dependence on God, without which we would not come to this world, nor could we live here. <\/span>Who thus thinks is humble and humiliated before God. <\/span>But let’s be honest that it is not always the case. <\/span>We often resemble the Pharisees. <\/span>We go to church, we pray, we sacrifice the needs of the church, we are going, but in doing so often despise those who are not so religious, like us.<\/span><\/strong>
One missionary writes, as once to him to the church entered a man who long years was not in church. <\/span>After the Holy Mass he came after him with a big inflammatory that from now on it changes and will regularly attend Sunday worship. <\/span>But on the other Sunday no longer arrived. <\/span>The priest met him after a long time on the street and asked what was going on. <\/span>Then the man replied, “When I was last in the church, all the eyes of those godly people were relieved at me and I felt like the habit of watching me. <\/span>Surely they asked that what’s here this missed among us looking for? <\/span>Where was the date? <\/span><\/strong>Now, if he is old, is he even \u00a0Let’s face that this bad habit is also among us.<\/strong> We like to despise those less religious, or those who, at a time of freedom from fear or even from infidelity, have not walked among us. So this bad habit we have to change! We have to change it in our souls! It is not possible for us who go to the House of God to get out of those who are less religious because we will become a parish and do not reach God’s favor. In doing so, our change is that we will become a religious and humble we will pray, to be a man, to contribute to the needs of the church, but we will not therefore be proud and promoted over others and self-confidence in God. Conversely, we make it clear that God and people need it. With such a humiliation we will also join God’s altar and be pleased to give a hand to the man, which we may believe to be a “toll”. We sacrifice the Holy Mass for us to embrace Jesus ‘ lessons in our hearts and to understand his promise that those who are humiliating will be promoted. Let’s face that this bad habit is also among us. We like to despise those less religious, or those who, at a time of freedom from fear or even from infidelity, have not walked among us. So this bad habit we have to change! We have to change it in our souls! It is not possible for us who go to the House of God to get out of those who are less religious because we will become a parish and do not reach God’s favor. In doing so, our change is that we will become a religious and humble we will pray, to be a man, to contribute to the needs of the church, but we will not therefore be proud and promoted over others and self-confidence in God. Conversely, we make it clear that God and people need it. With such a humili<\/strong>ation we will also join God’s altar and be pleased to give a hand to the man, which we may believe to be a “toll”. We sacrifice the Holy Mass for us to embrace Jesus ‘ lessons in our hearts and to understand his promise that those who are humiliating will be promoted. Let’s face that this bad habit is also among us. We like to despise those less religious, or those who, at a time of freedom from fear or even from infidelity, have not walked among us.

We sacrifice the Holy Mass for us to embrace Jesus ‘ lessons in our hearts and to understand his promise that those who are humiliated will be promoted. God good? ” <\/strong><\/span>Finally, the interview with the priest said this sentence: “I know that God would certainly accept me, but people have not accepted me.”<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n
