Message of the Week

Nothing that Enters One From the Outside Can Defile That Person; the Things That Come From Within Are What Defile

The Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time

Jesus tells us that insidious evil can come from within.

The heart is considered the source of human thought and emotion.   The heart is the center of our being.

The basic message is intention.  One can say “I didn’t do it”, but did you think it?

External religious practices and social niceties are not substitutes for a clean heart.

What steps should we take to purify our hearts?

 

For Where Two or Three are Gathered Together in My Name, There Am I in the Midst of Them.
