Benedita Capli – Vatikan Seydad
The patient who heals Jesus in Jerusalem is the slogan of humanity today, inflammation and suffers with a “hard -to -wild heart” who can find a cure in Christ. This is the image that Cardinal Petro Parolin, the Vatican State Secretary, uses to describe the current state of the world as well as in Europe, in the Mass held this morning, Tuesday, April 1, on the altar of the Bazilica Chair in San Pedro, in this platform, this second synod in churches in Italy (NDR, a group of churches designated in Catholic in this field) With the message of Pope Francis.
“Today’s Gospel tells us about a sick man, and he is a slave of a chronic disease. This seems to be the image of the case in which humanity and even Europe today are affected. It is affected for a long time of the tyranny of created interests, and it is paralyzed by the dynamics of violence and war, which also caused its crossing at the political and economic level.”
“Do you want to heal?”
Cardinal stopped in humanity that assumes its failures, “prey to the madness of power, on the one hand, and has been strongly injured by violence, on the other hand.” Therefore, the way is to return to “strong words to Jesus”.
“Do you want to heal? Do you really want to free yourself from the imaginary logic that makes you? Because the first thing you have to do is start your inner resources. If so, you wake up, take a strain and walk. This is free from everything that prevents you from walking towards healing and peace.”

The door of salvation
The Cardinal Parolin, the “source of the water that justifies”, which is Jesus, is capable of Cardinal Parolin, to “everything that is bound again.”
“The holy door, open to the jubilo de la Espranza that he passed today, is an eloquent sign of the person, who opens access to the source of salvation.” I am the door that will be saved between me. “
Looking at the divine source
As for living water, the Foreign Minister looked at the shedding of the second Senewood Association of Churches in Italy, while the third stage of the synod, which is defined as “prophetic”, is in which everyone is called to embody some evangelical options in the lives of societies. He said, “A beautiful and fruitful time,” for pastoral options in the coming years. Time to treat wounds.
“A person is not treated with advice or treatments from abroad, but when, thanks to the word of Christ, he can resort to the internal divine source who stopped looking. Thus, Jesus restores energy to be independent again.”
Therapist’s word
Cardinal Parolin also referred to the challenges that the Church is called today to assume “to accompany the believers to awareness of what they are,” which re -discovering the blessing of baptism because, as Saint Augustine argued, the source of the water that eternal life is eternal. He said, “I know personally,” is particularly concerned about issues related to Christian start and the transfer of faith, especially small generations. But we should not be afraid. “
“We will take clarity and missionary batch of awareness that Christians are carrying an unreasonable gift. So, yes, we will be able to give the word therapist that our sick world needs a lot.”

“This inner source that lives in the heart of the church and in the heart of every believer is Christ, Christ is alive in us, and it is an inexhaustible source of water that stems from eternal life.”
