Christian is a source of Joy. Therefore, we can ask ourselves why many Christians are not happy about Christianity. The answer is that only uniformed Christianity\u00a0 brings joy. Many Christians live a life that has nothing to do with Christianity.<\/h2>\n<h2>Sermons<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How many times does it happen\u00a0 that\u00a0 we\u00a0 close the\u00a0 door return\u00a0 to see if we have\u00a0 locked it. Why do we do that? Because we want\u00a0 to be sure. John the Baptist also wanted to be sure, that Jesus indeed\u00a0 the one\u00a0 humanity had expected. Therefore, he sends his disciples\u00a0 to him\u00a0 with a question. You\u00a0 are\u00a0 the one\u00a0 \u00a0or have\u00a0 to wait\u00a0 another? John personally met Jesus at baptism. He saw a dove and heard a voice\u00a0 from heaven and confidently\u00a0 said\u00a0 that\u00a0 Jesus\u00a0 was\u00a0 the Lamb of God. But now John is sitting\u00a0 in prison, listening\u00a0 to what Jesus\u00a0 is\u00a0 saying\u00a0 and doing. But it has not yet\u00a0 said that he I\u00a0 Messiah. Therefore, he wants\u00a0 to be sure,so he sends\u00a0 his disciples\u00a0 to Jesus&#8217;s reaction\u00a0 was also interesting, He\u00a0 says\u00a0 neither\u00a0 yes nor no, but\u00a0 it points\u00a0 John&#8217;s disciples\u00a0 to signs\u00a0 and\u00a0 miracles that\u00a0 clearly\u00a0 state\u00a0 that\u00a0 only\u00a0 the\u00a0 Messiah can\u00a0 these\u00a0 deeds. John\u00a0 was glad to receive\u00a0 the\u00a0 message\u00a0 from\u00a0 his disciples. He became certain\u00a0 that\u00a0 Jesus\u00a0 was the Messiah though he\u00a0 did not declare\u00a0 it. We\u00a0 often stand\u00a0 unsolvable problems in our\u00a0 lives or\u00a0 false\u00a0 ideas. Sometimes we hesitate\u00a0 about\u00a0 the\u00a0 certainty\u00a0 with which\u00a0 we\u00a0 seem to\u00a0 grow. What do we do then? Honestly, seek the truth and go to the root of things. Man can be defined\u00a0 as a being\u00a0 \u00a0seeking\u00a0 the truth\u00a0 and if he finds it he wants\u00a0 to be sure, he must\u00a0 not\u00a0 be\u00a0 content\u00a0 with\u00a0 half-truths and no longer\u00a0 be\u00a0 in doubt. Note\u00a0 the\u00a0 Apostle\u00a0 Thomas. He\u00a0 wants\u00a0 to be sure that\u00a0 Jesus rose\u00a0 from\u00a0 the\u00a0 dead When he received\u00a0 tangible\u00a0 evidence that Jesus\u00a0 was\u00a0 alive, he confessed\u00a0 his faith. We also sometimes have\u00a0 doubts\u00a0 about faith. What\u00a0 to do\u00a0 then? Let us\u00a0 seek a priest\u00a0 who will explain\u00a0 our doubts with\u00a0 the help\u00a0 of the Holy\u00a0 Spirit. We will\u00a0 never\u00a0 fully\u00a0 understand\u00a0 God\u00a0 by\u00a0 our reason,so\u00a0 it is necessary to ask\u00a0 for\u00a0 the\u00a0 gift\u00a0 of\u00a0 faith. It\u00a0 is not\u00a0 \u00a0a shame, they\u00a0 asked for it the apostles\u00a0 why\u00a0 we could\u00a0 not ask for it. When our faith\u00a0 will be\u00a0 really\u00a0 strong\u00a0 we be happy people. We will fiel\u00a0 the Job by\u00a0 John\u00a0 the\u00a0 Baptist\u00a0 and the saints. And the world cannot\u00a0 give us.In Italy\u00a0 a book\u00a0 was published which soon became\u00a0 a bestseller\u00a0 entitled\u00a0 Hypotheses\u00a0 on\u00a0 Jesus. Its author Vettori Missouri explored Jesus\u00a0 in a way\u00a0 of\u00a0 exploring\u00a0 great\u00a0 personalities.After\u00a0 three years\u00a0 of study to a conclusion Jesus of Nazareth is really who he pretended to be. Who the first Christians considered. Victoria Missouri&#8217;s hypothesis stems\u00a0 from\u00a0 the\u00a0 New k Testament\u00a0 writings\u00a0 of\u00a0 witnessing\u00a0 the eyewitnesses\u00a0 of the\u00a0 apostolic faith. This written to find\u00a0 the truth and found it. We too, can\u00a0 find\u00a0 certainty\u00a0 with\u00a0 this\u00a0 book. Let none\u00a0 us stay\u00a0 with\u00a0 unsolved problems\u00a0 if there are. We will also use\u00a0 Advent time\u00a0 to remediate these problems\u00a0 if they exist. They &#8216;re meditated and sought the right\u00a0 answers to strengthen our\u00a0 confidence in the\u00a0 faith. Faith will multiply\u00a0 our joy\u00a0 from\u00a0 Christian life.<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction Today&#8217;s is also called the Sunday of Joy.
