Transcript: 

Good morning. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. A word of exclamation that we could like to ask. If you celebrate a summer recollection, that's one such a day we take, we speak of three months, which we here reflect. And that is, in these calm days at the end of the summer, and where faith approaches. Our Holy Mother, the Church, works before us, in the missal especially of today, the mass that we celebrate on this 26th Sunday at the Pentecost, the idea of what we call the last thing. What is the last meaning of human life? Heavens, than placing the dust things, placing death and placing death.

[01:07]

And yesterday night, we have meditated a little on the world's infinity, that we should all want to meet the future, be confident when that wants to come. Then we come today to another stint, then we should feel that we could break the day of judgment. There is a lot of fear around, especially also in our day. There's also not a form of security. These two things seem to contradict one another in such a strange way. In one way, much of what the European can take away from it, because knowledge can't do it.

[02:13]

The medical knowledge of man is constantly evaluated, and it seems as if it would more or less succeed in order to eliminate fear. The fear of hunger, the fear of sin, the fear of poverty, so many other fears that we have to face. And therefore a certain sense of security is a yet another thing. On the other hand, there is a rising fear of the future. It is the fear of being a territory exposed to all the terrors of metal war, for example. But, I begin as it ought to say that in the mutual course of life, the majority of men, in these their attitudes, do not worry about what we may call animalistic, the kind of undefiled people

[03:34]

The fear that makes him get to lose one's life, or one's happiness, or one's him. However, when we look at all this picture, when we realize in this mass today, to fear when the day of judgment, that is a completely different picture. That is a fear in which nothing but the animal is involved, because at least I would be afraid. What is the fear in which the human person is afraid? He did not know. The center of our existence has been as reasonable men, as clean men, as men who are lawful for their actions, as men who are therefore responsible for their actions.

[04:52]

That is what is being put as a barrier to the ascetic faith at the day of judgment. According to our Christian faith, human history helped me in the era of universal culture, where mankind as a whole faces the full truth of God, the Lord, forever. That is my dear friends, that is a future way in the deepest sense of that word, really makes sense. There is no other future for us that really makes sense.

[05:58]

If our life were ended only in the dead, Out of our element, what do we exist? It would not make sense. Our life would not be this. It would not be a great deal to be a human being. The bottom end that they've set is judgment. And in that judgment, we meet the truth. And of course in God, that truth is not separate from holiness. In other words, we need the holiness of God. But we need this holiness of God as God's children and a responsible person. And therefore, we are standing

[07:02]

I would like to say, have a word to say in this church. Judgment, as you know, comes from the word you teach. And you teach, you have the means to say what? To say the statement which separates justice and wants, goodness and sin, truth and love. That is church. That is the word of the being created. The word of God's absolute truth. Before Christ we stand, but by God we are held. to say a word for our sin.

[08:08]

And that is the situation in which we enrich our transparent service body when we start the apothecary on this matter. The apothecary today hears everything by the singing of the school, the school church, All of us are involved and are in his world. We play. I wish that everybody in person would make these words his own. It is said, when you remember me, you will know who I am. And in the quiet world, into my love, Words that may be pleasing before the eyes of the priest, before the eyes of God.

[09:13]

That is the church today at the moment of the hour. And that is for us important because the altar door in the beginning is our life. Our life has opened to us. Our life opened to us. He projects the post and puts it on the captain. This is my life. Opened. Opened. And then we are lost children. And we leave them. And at this moment we say that put the right word into mind. Now what is the Christian's right word? and that all particular and all of his ties are unique when he meets the whole group of God. He may speak for himself, pronouncing as his own, but what does he say?

[10:24]

What is the required word? I will simply put it this way and answer with the words of a little joy. Well, Sam, these two, if you alone would pay attention to our sin, would not put you so down. But with you, there is rest. O Lord our King, then I will say this in weird order of speech before the face of God and the Lord of Jews. If you would pay attention, if you would focus your truth on our sins, O Lord,

[11:25]

No one would ever suffer. But with you there is mercy, O Lord of Israel, that leads out of this direction. That is the way of the Lord. There is no other way. And I would say that this is the meaning of Nearing or having dread on the day of judgment. That dread for a Christian is never and can never be the dread of his day. And this dread of a Christian also can never be in any way a smooth hope or consideration. all kind of taken into the forgiving mercy of God and therefore your affirmation of it.

[12:35]

The only way in which we really can meet God is in our own true truth. And this, our own true truth, Each expression in these words would lower and do what focused your attention on our sin. We could not survive. Words, and they are promised. And you are a fool of us. That is the state. And that is the bloodless of these powers. That is what our faith said. We in our faith have nothing to trust to God. But you are worse off because you are the hell of Israel. And that means the God of your children, of your people.

[13:40]

And that means you are infallible. And that means you sinned against yourself. And that means he died for our sins. And he rose again. And that is the word that speaks. Your son may well die in your sleep and rise again. There is a way stronger than our inner helplessness that we, as poor sinners, experience for you is for you as the absolute truth. To let us acknowledge we, in fact, are as Christian children of God and we of Christ, that God is our God, that he has given to us the good word of the day, his own son.

[14:50]

And this own son has become, through his incarnation, by the topic man. He has been good to our lives, this good word of God. in the hands of our Lord. And we, who obey in your fear and your hope, who will speak in the holy communion, we can say for the Father this word, that Christ our Lord has spoken forever in our favor by darkening the world of sin and life. That is our great joy, that is the joy that will also fill Indian history. Today we are simple and good, but at rest us keep this beloved community, this camp of the public.

[15:58]

And that is the joy that we feel and is reflected in that beautiful ration that we have just sung. How good it is when brethren live together in unity. We sing for us here on earth that no man surrounds us as members of God's church. The love that we give one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. That is our hope for future. That is the work on which we also at this moment stand. That is why for us as a community to look forward to the day of judgment. It certainly unrooms and exploits authority in Britain, security, and power.

[17:05]

But at the same time, also, the facts that we hear as members in the out-of-orderly community gives us hope because it shows us that the mercy of God lives within us. So, my dear friends, just as you refer to the Gospel of today's view in order to float, you see there another way of judgment. A sharp judgment. You see these scholars of the world. You see those who are professional in the ways of religion. I mean, the Pharisees coming together to catch the Lord Jesus in the snare of a leper he puts.

[18:12]

would you like to know the truth? Let's come to the Lord and then you can tell us what do we do and should we pay tribute to Caesar. And then post the word, that word to them and say, The people, they don't have to pay a job. And he says, now what do you see in there? You see there is the image of a Caesar. And then he says, and give to Caesar what he has seen. But give to God what is good. You see, that's a joke. That's a separation. What does it mean for us? It means for us not some complicated theory about the relation to the worldly power and the relation to God.

[19:25]

This is not true. The point with Caesar is not. There is man in this state of deficiency. There is man who tries to be the lord of his future. There is man who tries to eliminate from his life the drag of judgment. There is man who wants security through himself and through himself behind the walls of his personal body. That is made by the image of [...] When you meet two women at home, when you meet God, or when you think about Him, make it simple.

[20:34]

Throw away everything that in any way belongs to Satan. And that is of what you find and that is your standard response and your purpose. All who stand in love, whoever you are, get unhooked and then give to God what is God. And what is God's in us? His mercy is God's in us. Our faith in God's mercy and love, that is God's in us. Christ in us, that is God. So let us do it, and do it in this way that we say, each building will be the tip of our foot, all together again. Open the doors, and you would focus on our sin.

[21:38]

We could not do it. But with you, there is mercy. Oh, Lord of Israel, how can I not feel the light of your mercy?
