Demanding a choice
Remembering the Pope of the Media Age
Rom 6: 19-23 ; Lk 12: 49-53
The call to make a choice can sometimes place us in contrast with another person or group of persons. Mixing up persons and issues is a sign of lack of maturity. When we say God hates sin but not the sinners, we are referring to this capacity to love a person irrespective of the differences. That is a quality that leads to a healthy dialogue. Remembering today the great Pope Saint John Paul II, a man of dialogue and peace, we are called to be persons who are convinced about what we believe and what we live, but at the same time persons who never judge others or look to divide persons!
