00:30At that time Jesus said to the chief priests
00:59and to the elders of the village
01:00What do you think about this?
01:04A man who had two children
01:05He went to see the first one and ordered him
01:07Son, go and work in the vineyard today.
01:10He answered her
01:12I'm coming, sir.
01:14But it wasn't
01:15The father turned to the second one and said the same thing.
01:19He replied
01:21I don't want to go
01:22But he regretted it and went
01:25Which of the two did the father's will?
01:29They answered him
01:31The second
01:32Then Jesus said to them
01:35I assure you
01:37that the tax collectors and the prostitutes
01:39They have been beaten to the path
01:41of the kingdom of God
01:42Why did you come, John?
01:44He preached the path of justice
01:46And they didn't believe him
01:47Instead
01:48Tax collectors and prostitutes
01:51Yes, they believed him
01:52You
01:54not even after having seen
01:56They have repented
01:57nor have they believed in him
01:59The topic he presents to us today
02:15in the texts
02:18both from the first reading
02:19like the second one
02:20Well, it's an invitation.
02:21to a deep conversion
02:23a conversion
02:26that it doesn't stay
02:27in some superficialities
02:29which can sometimes happen
02:31in our life
02:32and that I always identify it
02:34and I call it as
02:35the risk of normality
02:37that is to say
02:38the one who didn't come to mass
02:39And now he comes to mass
02:40Well, it says
02:41I already did it
02:41the problem solved
02:44The important thing is to come to mass
02:46well no
02:46remember
02:47that Christianity
02:49It has to do with life
02:50that each of us lives
02:52in their particular environments
02:55the house
02:56the work
02:58the office
02:59our neighborhood
03:01the school
03:02That's where we are.
03:04truly Christian
03:07And that's why today I want to guide
03:09a little bit of humility
03:11on the topic
03:12of congruence
03:13how consistent
03:15It is our life
03:17at the moment
03:18we have come to mass
03:20for a long time
03:22I think most
03:23because he has come to mass
03:25probably since he was young
03:27we could say
03:29that what we have heard
03:31we have taken it
03:33to our personal life
03:34that people can distinguish
03:37clearly
03:38that we are Christians
03:40That's the question
03:42that in the end
03:42from our reflection
03:44we would have to go back
03:45her
03:46truly
03:47It's noticeable
03:48because as I said
03:49on other occasions
03:50if it's not noticeable
03:52Well, we're not
03:53Okay?
03:55today the Gospel text
03:56presents us with
03:58this moment
04:00in which Jesus
04:00makes a comparison
04:02for
04:03well, make him see
04:04to the Pharisees
04:05that it is not about
04:07simply
04:07a half-hearted yes
04:09but this one did
04:11It has to be seen
04:12translated
04:13in a lifetime
04:14of congruence
04:15in a conversion
04:17in a change
04:18change that
04:20as far as it reaches
04:22Let's see, Jesus.
04:22because it hasn't happened
04:23in them
04:24But it has happened
04:26in prostitutes
04:28and among the tax collectors
04:29the people they
04:30consider
04:31as useless
04:33people
04:33that has no stake
04:35in the kingdom
04:36from the heavens
04:37well it turns out
04:38that they
04:38Yes, they have it.
04:39And who do they think they are?
04:40who are the best
04:41They don't have it.
04:43because?
04:44because it can be
04:45What will happen to them?
04:46as sometimes happens to them
04:47to many of our
04:48Catholics
04:49where perhaps
04:50we could be
04:52one of us
04:53the Pharisee
04:55He was a man
04:56legalist
04:57He never failed her
04:58as we have already seen
05:00on other occasions
05:01He never failed her
05:02to no precept
05:03that had to do
05:04with rules
05:06of the law
05:06such as
05:08attending
05:10to the synagogue
05:11or pay
05:12their tithes
05:13or do
05:15this type
05:15of situations
05:16so
05:18they do not represent
05:20a real change
05:21in life
05:22nobody's
05:22sometimes
05:25It happens to us
05:25us
05:26Catholics
05:27that we think
05:28that we are
05:28some good ones
05:29interns
05:30some good ones
05:31Catholics
05:32because we failed
05:33to mass
05:34even some
05:36because they even feel
05:37that have given
05:38one step
05:38further
05:39because they already confess
05:41and they take communion
05:41which probably
05:43They didn't do that before.
05:44And that's good.
05:45which we do now
05:46people who didn't come to mass
05:47And now he comes to mass
05:48man
05:48excellent
05:49excellent
05:50the people who came to mass
05:52but he did not confess
05:53and did not take communion
05:54because it has given
05:55a wonderful step
05:56excellent
05:57But that remains.
06:00here
06:01at your house
06:05at your house
06:06in your environments
06:07this that you do
06:10in the temple
06:12moves
06:13this that you hear
06:16every week
06:17it is being assimilated
06:19in your life
06:19in such a way
06:21leave
06:22converting
06:24this that we celebrate
06:26in a lifetime
06:27Christian
06:28It didn't happen to him
06:31at that time
06:32to the
06:33Pharisees
06:35And that's why
06:36He gives them this comparison
06:37There were two
06:39guys
06:40one
06:42he tells her
06:42to his dad
06:43Yeah
06:44I agree
06:45but finally
06:47He doesn't do what he's told.
06:48and the other
06:50what does he say
06:51well no
06:52I don't want to go
06:52but finally
06:54if he goes
06:54and compares them
06:56the Pharisees
06:58They would be those who say
06:59Oh yes
07:00how beautiful
07:01how we are right now
07:02here at mass
07:02TRUE
07:03how beautiful
07:04what the father said
07:05He's right.
07:07that would be good
07:08that we could
07:10live
07:10but finally
07:12We left mass
07:14we forget
07:15we don't remember anymore
07:16and then
07:18well finally
07:19Well, we didn't do it.
07:21what he asked of us
07:23refers to
07:25to this
07:26young guy
07:27who says yes
07:28but when it came
07:30of the hour
07:30No
07:31the other
07:33on the contrary
07:33which is the one that identifies
07:35with the prostitutes
07:37and the
07:37sinners
07:40well those
07:42Well, they didn't like it.
07:43the topic a lot
07:44that they were
07:45preaching
07:45but nevertheless
07:47They started to think
07:49and finally
07:50if they did
07:52There is a text
07:53with whom I would like
07:54today we start
07:55from the sacred scripture
07:56this moment
07:57for reflection
07:58that is
07:59in the gospel
08:00of Saint Luke
08:01from chapter 7
08:03on purpose
08:04of what it says
08:05Jesus
08:06Chapter 7
08:19verse 27
08:21Jesus says
08:25Juan is that one
08:27who says
08:28writing
08:29I send
08:30my messenger
08:31in front of you
08:32so that you
08:33prepare the way
08:34I tell them
08:35that together
08:36men
08:37if none
08:37has been bigger
08:38that Juan
08:39and yet
08:40the smallest
08:40in the kingdom of God
08:41It's the biggest
08:42Everyone heard it
08:44all who heard
08:45to Juan
08:46even those who were paid
08:47taxes for Rome
08:48they were baptized
08:50by him
08:50thus fulfilling
08:52the fair demands
08:53of God
08:53But the Pharisees
08:55and the teachers
08:56of the law
08:57They were not made
08:58baptize by John
08:59despising
09:01thus
09:01what god
09:02I had wanted to do
09:03in favor of it
09:05Juan came
09:08he preached to them
09:09he told them
09:09become
09:10repent
09:12and they didn't change
09:14They continued the same.
09:16while
09:22the prostitutes
09:23and the tax collectors
09:25This tells us here
09:26That did change.
09:28your brother
09:32sister
09:32you have changed
09:34in your life
09:36That's great that it's over.
09:38You've made a change
09:39if you didn't come before
09:40to mass
09:40And you come to mass?
09:41You already made a change
09:42if not before
09:44You confessed
09:45And now you confess
09:47Well, you already did it.
09:48also a change
09:49if not before
09:51you took communion
09:52And now you take communion
09:53You already did
09:53also a change
09:54But those who already know
09:58they confessed
09:58and they received communion
09:59We've made a change
10:01now
10:02in our own lives
10:04this participation
10:08what do you have
10:09It's noticeable
10:10it looks
10:12that you already are
10:13a true Christian
10:15or do you continue
10:18like the Pharisees
10:20listening to the message
10:22of Mr.
10:23but
10:25There is no change anymore
10:27our life
10:30It doesn't change anymore.
10:33the people in your company
10:37keep watching
10:38to the same person
10:39always
10:39well no
10:41now he goes to mass
10:43I have known
10:46that Juanito
10:47who didn't used to go to mass
10:48Now he goes to mass
10:50and so?
10:52in what
10:53it benefits us
10:54as a company
10:55my husband
10:57He didn't used to come to mass
10:58And now he comes to mass
11:01man
11:01excellent
11:02And something happened here
11:06at home
11:06changed the way
11:09managing the house
11:11the deal changed
11:13with me
11:14with my wife
11:15the deal changed
11:16with my children
11:16before my son
11:24I didn't go to mass
11:25And now it's coming
11:27to mass
11:27even forms part
11:28from a choir
11:30And it shows.
11:37at home, boys
11:38our parents
11:41notice
11:43that
11:43when forming
11:44part
11:44now from a choir
11:45of being part
11:46of the church
11:47more active
11:48there have been
11:49changes
11:49in us
11:51or we continue
11:53being the same
11:54disordered
11:55disobedient
11:56defaulters
11:57etc.
11:58etc.
11:59the topic
12:02It's serious.
12:04because it has to do with
12:07with congruence
12:08so
12:09On one hand I say yes
12:11I am a Christian
12:12I come to mass
12:14I participate in the worship
12:15I hear the word
12:17of God
12:17But on the other hand
12:19my life
12:19It's inconsistent.
12:21with which
12:22I'm listening
12:24I hear certain
12:26things
12:26but I don't experience them
12:29at home
12:29I like them
12:32things
12:33what they say
12:33in the church
12:34but I don't experience them
12:37and this
12:41my beloved
12:41siblings
12:42because I had
12:43lots to see
12:43with the
12:45moral part
12:46from that time
12:47There is a text
12:50that we have reviewed
12:51already
12:51you will remember
12:52of these two
12:53men who climbed
12:54to the temple
12:55are
12:55drawn
12:57in Luke
12:58in chapter 18
12:59a Pharisee
13:01again
13:02and a tax collector
13:04that is to say
13:04a tax collector
13:05a traitor
13:07to the homeland
13:08someone who doesn't go
13:09to the cult
13:10someone who therefore
13:11is excluded
13:12from Israel
13:13the Pharisee
13:16he boasts
13:17I do go to mass
13:19I confess
13:21and I receive communion
13:22I am registered
13:25in the Corbano
13:26and also
13:28when it comes
13:29the tithe
13:29godlike
13:30I throw them
13:31a good wool
13:31I'm not like
13:35that race
13:35that
13:35house
13:37comes to mass
13:38nor does he confess
13:40nor does he take communion
13:41I haven't seen it
13:43and when it happens
13:43the little tray
13:44throws
13:45three pesos
13:45Sir
13:46I am not
13:48like this dude
13:49very punctual
13:55here
13:55but at home
13:59different
14:00instead
14:02the other poor man
14:03says sir
14:03well yes
14:05well I
14:05come
14:06little by little at mass
14:07I haven't confessed
14:08I have not received communion
14:10but
14:10But help me
14:12because I want to
14:15change
14:16And that's the difference
14:20the difference
14:22in Christianity
14:23does not exist
14:24only
14:25in which comes
14:26to mass
14:26in which he confesses
14:28and receives communion
14:29excellent
14:30who do it
14:31but that
14:34It has to be seen
14:35projected
14:35It has to be seen
14:37translated
14:37in actions
14:38very specific
14:40in our house
14:41Are you coming to mass?
14:42excellent
14:43And it shows.
14:43with your husband
14:44with your wife
14:47or is it still
14:48the same woman
14:49screamer
14:50scold
14:50bad-tempered
14:52and bad temper
14:53It's noticeable
14:58because otherwise it's not noticeable
15:02so
15:03the situation
15:04it gets
15:04very serious
15:06if a person
15:09He is not a Catholic
15:11practicing
15:12he doesn't come to mass
15:13no, nothing
15:16He is a pagan
15:17and we see him leave
15:19from a strip club
15:22Well, one says
15:25well uh
15:25He is not a Christian
15:27that dude
15:28But they come out
15:32to one of the leaders
15:33of our community
15:35Oh Carlito
15:37They see them leave
15:40some of you
15:41from a bar
15:42so already half
15:43chule
15:43at a meeting
15:49with friends
15:49they begin
15:50to tell
15:50of those jokes
15:51that we already know
15:52double triple
15:53and quadruple sense
15:54and the good Christian
15:58choir member
15:59member of a group
16:00leader
16:01of the parish
16:02hahaha
16:03and also
16:04I know a better one.
16:05What's going on there, brothers?
16:16What's going on there?
16:20this
16:20damages
16:22to the church
16:23the lack
16:27of congruence
16:29in the Christian
16:30damages
16:31to the church
16:32and damages it
16:34more seriously
16:37the one who is
16:37higher
16:38but the one who is
16:40lower
16:40It also damages it
16:42if we see out
16:44to a Christian
16:45mediocre
16:45Catholic
16:47baptized
16:48that does not have
16:49no commitment
16:50with the church
16:51well the church
16:53says
16:53If that's how they all are...
16:54look
16:54They don't care
16:57that
16:57No?
16:59You see, that's why
17:00They are all brothers
17:01separated
17:02well we
17:02They criticize us
17:04So much, right?
17:04because they say that here
17:05in Catholicism
17:06we can get drunk
17:07to do and undo
17:08that finally
17:09However you want
17:10Enough, and confess
17:10And the matter was settled.
17:11so
17:14the other day
17:15I was talking with
17:16friends on this topic
17:17and I told them
17:18It's incredible.
17:19that sometimes
17:19confess a person
17:21I find her
17:22next Monday
17:24to confess her
17:25and he tells me
17:26that did not reach
17:27not even
17:28to receive communion on Sunday
17:29that is to say
17:31it could not be sustained
17:32in grace
17:33not even
17:34to receive communion
17:35Sunday
17:35and he's back
17:37to sin
17:37seriously
17:38we are used to it
17:41That's great!
17:42Well, I confess
17:43total
17:43and then total
17:44if I miss them
17:44three or four weeks
17:45no problem
17:46That's right, brothers.
17:50damages
17:52has damaged
17:53greatly
17:54to the church
17:54Now imagine
17:55what's happening
17:56if instead of being
17:57a little Christian
17:59there is nothing more
17:59of those baptized
18:00that do not have
18:01no commitment
18:02with the church
18:03what's happening
18:04if they must leave
18:05to a kid
18:06that is
18:06who know
18:08that is
18:08in one of the courses
18:09of the choirs
18:11or imagine
18:12to a leader
18:13to one of the leaders
18:15from one of our groups
18:17or that one of the leaders
18:20of our groups
18:21impregnates the bride
18:22There are Carlitos
18:24Now imagine
18:28who is not a leader
18:31of the group
18:31Imagine that it is
18:34the priest
18:36or the bishop
18:41or the pope
18:43I don't have to tell you much.
18:50of the damages
18:51so serious
18:52that have caused
18:55priestly scandals
18:56in the last 10 years
18:58a lot of people
19:01has retired
19:01of the church
19:02we have given them
19:04chance
19:05to the enemies
19:06arrest
19:07lots of tools
19:09lots of weapons
19:09to say
19:10This is useless
19:12Why do they listen to them?
19:13Just look at this
19:14what they do
19:15Maybe it's one
19:17As I tell you
19:19Well, they are
19:20many priests
19:21and well one
19:22He's the one who did this
19:23Well
19:23that's enough
19:24That's enough.
19:27because of the scandal
19:28in the church
19:29It harms the church
19:30pity
19:32to the wife
19:33of Christ
19:33That's why we can't
19:36come to mass
19:37and say
19:37Oh, how beautiful, Father
19:39that's awesome
19:39and then go home
19:41to throw away the butter
19:42That's why the husband
19:46many times
19:47He doesn't want to get involved.
19:48because?
19:49because he doesn't see his wife
19:50changes
19:51real
19:52Christians
19:53or the parents
19:55They don't want to come to mass
19:56although the children
19:58They're already in a choir
19:59in some group
19:59because then they arrive
20:01to his house
20:01and they do exactly
20:02the same
20:03what they used to do
20:04There is no change
20:05and so?
20:06It harms the church
20:07the vaccine
20:09against Christianity
20:11against grace
20:12the demon
20:14from there
20:14and take a cut
20:15tremendous
20:16we have seen
20:20during these weeks
20:21a chapter
20:23very important
20:24unfortunately
20:26the liturgy
20:27It does not contemplate it
20:29in the same cycle
20:30which is chapter 18
20:31I was telling you
20:32It's the chapter
20:33which is called
20:34the ecclesiastical chapter
20:35where he presents
20:37Saint Matthew
20:38the main ones
20:39the main elements
20:41that they must
20:41to live
20:42in a Christian community
20:43and those who must
20:44avoid
20:45and at the very beginning
20:48from chapter 18
20:49It has an instruction
20:52which is very important
20:54because it refers
20:55to the text
20:56that we are reading today
20:57in this chapter 21
20:59if you'd like to go
21:00to chapter 18
21:02at the beginning
21:03from chapter 18
21:05in verse 6
21:09and following
21:10says
21:10to anyone
21:12that causes to fall
21:13in sin
21:13to one of these
21:14small
21:15who believe in me
21:16He'd better
21:17that they would sink it
21:18deep down
21:19sea
21:20with a large stone
21:21mill
21:22tied around the neck
21:23how bad
21:25for the world
21:26that there is
21:26so many incitements
21:28to sin
21:28There have to be some
21:30but there are
21:31of that man
21:32that causes sin
21:33to the others
21:35careful
21:37with the scandal
21:38and look
21:41like the topic
21:43for Mr.
21:45It is not minor
21:45when I had
21:49the opportunity
21:50one of the occasions
21:51in which
21:52I visited Rome
21:55I had the opportunity
21:57to visit
21:57the city
21:58of Pompeii
21:59a city
22:01that was covered
22:02completely
22:02by Vesuvius
22:03and well, practically
22:05she was missing
22:07after
22:07the excavations
22:08they made that
22:09would go out
22:10the city
22:11just as it was
22:12at that time
22:13and well
22:14visiting
22:15the city
22:15of Pompeii
22:17Well, I never
22:17had seen
22:18a stone
22:19mill
22:19There are many things
22:20siblings
22:21that when we
22:22we read them
22:22in writing
22:23if we don't have
22:24knowledge
22:25a little more
22:26historical
22:27or theological
22:28sometimes
22:29We don't understand
22:30the dimension
22:31that Jesus
22:32He's giving it to her
22:33to things
22:33few of us
22:35we have seen
22:36to the sheep
22:38so
22:38we don't have
22:39that awareness
22:40pastoral
22:41from that time
22:42that when
22:42those people
22:43I was listening to Jesus
22:44because I understood
22:45very clearly
22:46the same
22:48when referring to
22:49to a stone
22:49mill
22:50Well, I, like
22:51millstone
22:52well no
22:52I don't know any.
22:53because our mills
22:54They have no stones
22:55well the most
22:56that he might have thought
22:57it would be on a stone
22:58of metate
22:59or in a
23:01what's it called
23:01molcajete
23:02and then he says
23:05Well, then, let them throw you out.
23:06to the sea
23:06thinking
23:07moving
23:08the situation
23:10Well, let them throw me in.
23:12to the sea
23:12with a molcajete
23:14well
23:14However you want
23:15Well, I'm going to fight.
23:16TRUE
23:16probably
23:17I put on my little jackets
23:18But whatever you want
23:20something
23:20the millstone
23:23It's a giant stone
23:26more or less
23:27about this size
23:28is wide
23:30I think that
23:31more than one meter
23:32I guess so
23:34that must weigh
23:35near
23:36or more
23:37half a ton
23:38It's a stone
23:39immense
23:40that was
23:41on top of a cone
23:43stone
23:45also very porous
23:46in such a way
23:47that the grain
23:48it was thrown upwards
23:49and then
23:49as I turned it over
23:51well, I was grinding
23:52and along the shores
23:53He was leaving.
23:55the flour
23:55the grain
23:57already crushed
23:58tie you up
24:02to one of these stones
24:04and they throw you into the sea
24:06brother
24:07is called
24:07death warrant
24:09what Jesus is saying
24:12a person
24:14that scandalizes
24:17a person
24:19coming
24:19to mass
24:20and leave here
24:21and the people
24:22she sees it
24:23a person
24:25that belongs
24:26to a group
24:27who is a leader
24:27of a group
24:28and then
24:30scandalizes
24:31a priest
24:32that scandalizes
24:35that he said
24:37Yes, sir.
24:38and he clothed himself
24:39for the celebration
24:40of the Eucharist
24:41and then
24:42in his private life
24:43gets drunk
24:44tells jokes
24:45does a terrible job and a half
24:47and worse things
24:49that we know
24:50that have happened
24:51is that serious
24:53is that serious
24:55the incongruity
24:56that they notice
24:59it would be better for him
25:01that they tied him up
25:03a millstone
25:05around the neck
25:05and they cast him into the sea
25:07that is to say
25:07it would be better for him
25:09to have died
25:10because?
25:13Which is worse?
25:14than physical death
25:15siblings?
25:20eternal death
25:21you'd be better off
25:26to have died
25:28that caused a scandal
25:29because
25:32if you cause a scandal
25:34are you going
25:36to condemnation
25:37eternal
25:38sometimes
25:41we don't measure
25:42These brothers
25:43and we continue
25:44coming to mass
25:45and we do
25:46some changes
25:48in our life
25:49pious
25:50but not
25:52in our life
25:52moral
25:53not in our
25:55relationship
25:55as employees
25:58and the employee
25:59It remains
26:00just as mouse
26:00that always
26:01It steals hours
26:02go on
26:03misuse
26:04the internet
26:05and that's where it does
26:06your payments
26:07and their things
26:07and steals from him
26:08hours and hours
26:08and hours
26:09to the people
26:10the pattern
26:16chest-beating
26:18here
26:18comes to mass
26:20accepted
26:22to be a minister
26:23extraordinary
26:24gives communion
26:25to his brothers
26:26But he pays them
26:28miserable wages
26:29to its employees
26:30that person
26:36is referred to
26:39in this text
26:39that person
26:41is the one that
26:42it looks
26:43to the Pharisee
26:44It never fails him
26:46here
26:46makes changes
26:49in his life
26:49because
26:50come to mass
26:52well, I'll get up
26:52a little earlier
26:54confess
26:55Well, yes
26:56Well, go tell him
26:57to the father
26:58there
26:58my things
26:59but when
27:02touch your bag
27:03when you have to
27:04pay more
27:05to your employees
27:06when you have to
27:08leave
27:08of being
27:09using
27:09the internet
27:10for your things
27:11personal
27:12in the company
27:13so as not to have
27:15that do it
27:15at your house
27:16then
27:18That changes things.
27:19That's where
27:22if it hurts us
27:23like the Pharisee
27:25Juan was coming
27:27and I told them
27:28siblings
27:29become
27:30change your life
27:32and the Pharisee
27:34no more
27:36it was still
27:39the same thing
27:40always
27:40while
27:43the prostitutes
27:44and the sinners
27:47they changed
27:49changed their lives
27:51they ceased to be
27:54that grumpy dad
27:55who always arrived
27:57and mistreated
27:57to the children
27:58who got drunk
28:00it stopped being that
28:01What happened to you?
28:03then he became a Christian
28:04Oh Carlitos
28:06he doesn't go to mass
28:08and he is a minister
28:09but it remains
28:10the same dad
28:12always
28:12the same mom
28:14always
28:14the same son
28:15always
28:16with consequences
28:19many times
28:19disastrous
28:22for the church
28:24because people
28:26He knows you
28:27I've already told you
28:30on other occasions
28:31one of the experiences
28:33sad things in my life
28:34treating
28:34to convince
28:36to a colleague
28:37work
28:37when
28:38before
28:38enter the seminar
28:39and I couldn't achieve it
28:42because
28:42he tells me
28:43look
28:44the difference
28:44between
28:45my person
28:47and this friend
28:48that we both knew
28:49and we knew him
28:50because this person
28:51was part
28:52of a
28:52was part
28:54of an organization
28:55in the church
28:55he told me
28:57the difference
28:57between the two of us
28:59It's just that
29:00that he goes to mass
29:01and I don't
29:02but our lives
29:04They are the same
29:05How do you beat him?
29:09is a person
29:11that he's not coming back
29:13to the church
29:13because of bad testimony
29:15from another Christian
29:17there at the company
29:17That's why
29:20the punishment
29:21It's terrible.
29:22the incongruity
29:24It's terrible.
29:24come to mass
29:28and then
29:30water it
29:32out there
29:33in front of people
29:35that damages
29:38seriously
29:38to our church
29:39and sometimes
29:41We are of these brothers
29:43sometimes we are
29:44of these
29:44And that's why
29:46There is a text
29:46I want to read them
29:48sorry
29:52in Romans 2:24
29:55where
30:04Saint Paul
30:05well it says
30:07exposed
30:08this topic
30:09in a way
30:10well
30:11very objective
30:14says
30:21justly
30:22the scripture says
30:23the pagans
30:25offend God
30:26because of
30:27of you
30:29the pagans
30:32offend God
30:34because
30:35of our
30:36bad testimony
30:37because we don't give
30:40a testimony
30:41consistent
30:42And this you see
30:45that has serious
30:47repercussions
30:48in our own
30:50life of brothers
30:51come to mass
30:55commune

31:04the same husband
31:05which was before

31:09to receive communion
31:10I can't be
31:11the same person
31:12and if I remain
31:13means
31:14that I am like
31:15a Pharisee
31:15nothing else
31:16I do it
31:17for appearances
31:18There goes the Pharisee
31:19TRUE
31:19with their phylacteries
31:20here
31:21pulling them
31:22so that everyone
31:22would consider them
31:23which was very good
31:24and very holy
31:25but his life
31:26it didn't change
31:27the prostitute woman
31:31he blushed
31:31his little shop

33:43that we
33:44we do
33:45and we say
33:46because there are things
33:47What can we do?
33:48And what can we say?
33:49and that nobody
33:50She's going to be shocked
33:51Saint Paul

34:09to idols
34:10He is writing to her
34:12to a community
34:13pagan
34:14the pagans
34:15who became
34:16well, for them
34:17once converted
34:19once they discovered
34:20that the idol
34:21because it was no more
34:22than a stone
34:22and that to whom there was
34:23that worship it
34:24It was the true God
34:25because the sacrifices
34:27that were offered
34:28to the sticks
34:29and the images
34:30because they were worthless
34:31and then
34:32They ate the meat
34:33who was immolated
34:35to idols
34:37however
34:38They were communities
34:39mixed
34:39They were communities
34:41in which there were
34:42converted pagans
34:43and where there was
34:44converted Jews
34:46the Jews
34:47which obviously
34:48because they have
34:48a whole story
34:50regarding this
34:53well they
34:54They were scandalized
34:56to see that
34:57Christians
34:58who were coming
34:58of paganism
34:59they ate
35:00the meat
35:01of the idols
35:02they said
35:02These are some
35:03pagans
35:04TRUE?
35:04How dare they
35:05to eat the meat
35:06of the idols?
35:09Saint Paul
35:10concludes
35:11this text
35:14saying
35:15not all
35:17they know
35:18the truth
35:19some who were
35:20accustomed
35:21to worship idols
35:22They still eat
35:23of those foods
35:23thinking that
35:24were offered
35:25to the gods
35:26and his conscience
35:27which is weak
35:28It makes them feel
35:30contaminated
35:31for the idol
35:31Of course, God
35:33They don't accept us
35:35It doesn't depend
35:35from what we eat
35:36Well, we're not going.
35:37to be better
35:38for eating
35:39nor worse
35:39for not eating
35:40but avoid
35:41that freedom
35:42that you have
35:43drop
35:45in sin
35:45to those who are
35:47weak
35:47in their faith
35:48Because if you
35:49that you know
35:50these things
35:51You sit down to eat
35:52In a place
35:53dedicated to idols
35:54and some weak brother
35:55He sees you
35:56can happen
35:57that he
35:58be encouraged to eat
35:59this offering
36:00made to an idol
36:01And so you
36:02for your knowledge
36:03You make it get lost
36:04your weak brother
36:05because in Christ
36:06He also died
36:07by offending
36:08consciousness
36:09of the weaker siblings
36:10in faith
36:10You offend
36:11to Christ himself
36:13that's why
36:14if due to
36:15of my food
36:16I cause to fall into sin
36:18to my brother
36:19I shouldn't eat meat
36:20so as not to put it
36:21endangered
36:22of sinning
36:23to murmur
36:24to scandalize
36:26And here's what I'll tell you.
36:28something that has to do
36:30with me
36:31in this
36:32on this topic
36:33Is dancing bad?
36:36No
36:37dancing is not bad
36:39It's kind of fun
36:41to me in my youth
36:42and so far
36:43I've always liked it
36:44the music
36:45and obviously
36:45with it also
36:46the dance
36:47I liked it
36:49lot
36:49dance
36:51however
36:52however
36:54well in the culture
36:55in which we live
36:56Well, it's not very well regarded.
36:59at least
37:00for a good amount
37:01of people
37:02the one the father
37:03at a party
37:04start dancing
37:05and much less
37:07if they get together
37:08TRUE?
37:08because it says
37:09No, this one seems...
37:10that's already here
37:10leaking oil
37:12on the other hand
37:12TRUE?
37:14and then
37:16although I like to dance
37:17although it is not a sin
37:20dance
37:20How can that do it?
37:22let it fall
37:23in sin
37:24my brother
37:25murmur
37:26judge me
37:28then say
37:29not the parents
37:30etc.
37:30etc.
37:31so
37:31I don't dance
37:33says Pablo
37:37Don't eat meat
37:39immolated
37:40to idols
37:41not because bad
37:42You can eat it
37:43the problem
37:45is if I were with you
37:46He's eating
37:47a person
37:48who is scandalized
37:49because you eat
37:50the flesh of idols
37:51Well, don't eat it.
37:52And that's why
37:56well, at the parties
37:57Well, now I'm going
37:59dinner
38:00nothing else
38:00if there is dinner
38:03because otherwise
38:03well, that's all
38:04like the little Chinese boy
38:05a thousand
38:06and well
38:10I like it a lot
38:11then with my nieces
38:13with my sisters
38:14Well, I dance.
38:15TRUE?
38:15and so in meetings
38:17very close
38:18with a friend
38:19where I know that
38:20Nobody is going to be scandalized
38:22if the father
38:22she starts to dance
38:23because?
38:27because I do
38:27terrible damage
38:29to my church
38:29imagine
38:30of being talked about
38:31in mouth
38:31The father was seen
38:32And now imagine
38:33with Facebook
38:34the father here
38:39There will be no shortage
38:46negative comments
38:48for the church
38:49if so
38:49That's how parents are.
38:51and blah blah blah
38:52blah blah blah blah
38:52I'd better
38:55look
38:56I'd better
38:58that they put me
38:59a millstone
39:00No
39:01if with the metate
39:02would struggle to get out
39:03with a mill
39:03Not even as a joke
39:04TRUE?
39:08congruence
39:09siblings

39:13that people
39:14that people
39:14sits down

39:15to participate
39:17the incongruity
39:18remove people
39:19of the church
39:20pity
39:22the stain
39:23it deteriorates
39:24That's why we have
39:26to be very careful
39:27above all
39:27the kids
39:28because you
39:31They are the invitation
39:32for the new generations
39:36his life
39:37its consistency
39:38with the gospel
39:39That's what it does
39:41that
39:41well others
39:43they should also be encouraged
39:44to participate
39:45if on the contrary
39:48to you
39:48They see them
39:49doing things
39:51disadvantages
39:52well, people
39:53He's going to say
39:54They are the same
39:55that everyone
39:56Well

39:57and they sing
39:58in the choir
39:59but
40:00his life

40:03so that
40:05Should I join?
40:06to the church
40:06so that
40:07Should I join the choir?
40:07so that
40:08Am I a good Christian?
40:09It's all just a story.
40:10all this
40:11We are all the same
40:12they say
40:13We are all equal
40:14Forgive me, brother
40:15not everyone
40:16I am not the same
40:18than the others
40:19and all of you
40:21who are here
40:22siblings

40:23the same
40:24I am not
40:26like the others
40:27I am a Christian
40:29And that's why
40:31my way

40:34to my children
40:34to my parents
40:35the way
40:36to relate

40:39because?
40:41because I am a Christian
40:42we have to be
40:44congruent
40:46And I would like to finish.
40:48right there
40:48with
40:49in the same letter
40:50of the apostle
40:51of the apostle
40:52Pablo
40:52to the Corinthians
40:54in this first letter
40:55in chapter 1
40:57in verse 8
40:58It says the following
41:00God will keep them
41:03firm
41:03until the end
41:04so that no one
41:05can reproach them
41:07nothing
41:07when our
41:08Lord Jesus Christ
41:09return
41:10that they be
41:12irreproachable
41:14that nobody
41:17siblings
41:17have nothing
41:18What can I say about you?
41:19that nobody
41:19have nothing
41:20What to say about the Father
41:21that nobody
41:23have nothing
41:24What can we say about us?
41:25and of course
41:26that all this
41:27it is therefore
41:28progress
41:29There are areas
41:31of our life
41:32in which we have
41:32that follow
41:33well, moving forward
41:34because still
41:35We are a bad example
41:36to the others
41:37topics such as character
41:40as you will understand
41:42TRUE?
41:42where then
41:44Yeah
41:45It's a bad example.
41:46TRUE?
41:47that I treat badly
41:48to a person
41:48It's part of my character
41:50And I'm going to say
41:50Well, that's just how I am.
41:51whoever wants
41:52it goes in
41:52and the one who doesn't
41:52You can see it there
41:53well no
41:54because that hurts him
41:55to my church
41:56That's a shame.
41:58to my community
41:59the same
42:02You have to say
42:03you as a father
42:04family
42:04as a husband
42:06as a wife
42:07This hurts
42:10to my community
42:12And I am a Christian.
42:15I have to work on it
42:16It's going to be hard for me
42:17Yeah
42:18I'm going to have to ask
42:19with more insistence
42:21in the areas
42:22where I have
42:23little control
42:23what is the topic
42:24of the character
42:25But God
42:27It gives you grace
42:28ask her for it
42:29so that you can move forward
