Infallibility of the Pope 「⋯⋯ 羅馬教宗⋯⋯享有⋯⋯ 不能錯誤的神恩」 (天主教教理 891)

“Simon, Simon, behold Satan has demanded to sift all of you like wheat, but I have prayed that your own faith may not fail; and once you have turned back, you must strengthen your brothers.” ( Lk. 22:31-32.)
Jesus said these words to Peter after the washing of the feet. It is with this backdrop that we should look at the topic of Papal Infallibility as service.

Last week we looked at Rom. 10:14-15 (“And how can people preach unless they are sent?”) and considered the role of the bishops and priests as teachers of the truth. This week we will look at the content of the truth being passed on.
Rom. 10:17, “faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the word of Christ.”

One of the most unique qualities of the Catholic Church, differing from other Christian denominations, is this “Authority of the Church” , to teach as Jesus taught. It comes primarily from Mt. 28: 28-20, Mt. 16:18-19 and Lk. 22:31-32.

“ Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. ” ( Jn. 6:54 )
The second central mystery of the Catholic Church is the doctrine of the Holy Eucharist; Jesus gave us His Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity as our spiritual food.
As Catholics we have the tremendous gift from Jesus to receive Him in the Holy Eucharist. This is no small matter. Yet, so many receive Him such recklessly,

The Father and I are one. (Jn. 10:30)
The Holy Spirit that the Father will send in my name… (Jn. 14:26)

7th Sunday of Easter or Ascension
刊登日期: 2013.05.12作者:
In many parts of the world, (including Hong Kong), Ascension Thursday is no longer celebrated as a holy day on the Thursday 40 days after Easter. Instead, it is moved to the following Sunday, thus replacing 7th Sunday of Easter and the reading of the Gospel for that Sunday. I would like to share with you my reflection on this beautiful text from Jn 17:20-26. This took place after the Last Supper. In Jn 17, Jesus prayed with them and in verse 20-26. He said,

“My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” ( Jn. 10:27 )
The bishop asks the one to be ordained, “Do you promise obedience to me and my successor ?”

With these words, Jesus gave Peter and the Church the responsibility to “feed” His lambs both in His Word and the Holy Eucharist. In Mt 28: 16-20, Jesus gave the mission of “teaching everything He had commanded” to the apostles.
