00:00How are you, dear brothers and friends?
00:18Let us continue to move forward on this path of discipleship.
00:22Something I forgot in the last segment, but which is very important,
00:26And above all because it's an option for you and ultimately a good convenience
00:31because we are already in this world.
00:33It's the digital age.
00:35I also recommend, they can be very useful, Bible apps.
00:41There are many apps on our cell phones, on our devices, tablets, computers,
00:48The mobile phone, okay?
00:50I have my Bible app.
00:52Note that just as there are apps, there are also Bible apps.
00:56But some are not Catholic.
00:58I recommend that you persevere, do not download, do not install on your device
01:07the first Bible app that appears.
01:10Do a little research.
01:11Sometimes there are reviews, sometimes there are little notes there on the app download platforms
01:17They tell you, this Bible is Catholic.
01:22This Bible app is Catholic.
01:24The advantage of having a Bible app is that it's fast and always available.
01:30Sometimes I can even underline it, I can enlarge the font, I can focus on a verse.
01:41Sometimes it has a search engine and I can, for example, type the word love.
01:44I search and all the frequencies of this word used throughout the Bible appear.
01:53in the New Testament, in Saint Paul, in a single letter from Paul
01:58and it can be very useful for studying.
02:00The difference and the advantage or disadvantage between a Bible app and a physical Bible
02:10It is, well, the first of all, the satisfaction of turning the pages, really,
02:19But there is also the disadvantage that I might not be able to open my Bible on public transport,
02:25in an interval that you have between classes at the faculty.
02:31Bible apps are always at hand, they're on my phone.
02:36The disadvantage of an app is that I might receive a notification from another app.
02:43I'm distracted from some social network.
02:47But hey, everyone should discover the method they like best.
02:52and that he discovers that this connection with Scripture, this connection with the Word of God,
03:00It is not optional, but it is not obligatory either; it is love itself.
03:05It's like two lovers.
03:07A man in love, a boyfriend, is not obliged to go and visit his girlfriend.
03:14Even the bride is not obligated to receive him at home.
03:17Because love is not an obligation.
03:21Love is this relationship.
03:25And every relationship needs to be nurtured.
03:28And this is the point I wanted to address in this video.
03:32What is my relationship with Jesus?
03:34And how do I nurture, how do I feed this relationship with Jesus?
03:38For the bread of life.
03:41Yes, brothers, the next sacrament to study is the Eucharist, the bread of life.
03:48In every liturgical celebration called Mass, there are these two dimensions, these two elements,
03:59or these two tables, which is the table of the Word, which is usually a lectern that we liturgically call an ambo.
04:11The readings are proclaimed there.
04:15First reading, Psalm.
04:18Second reading, because it is Sunday.
04:20And then the corresponding Gospel.
04:24Then we move on to the Eucharistic table, or the altar, which is the center of every church, of every temple.
04:33There they will prepare the gifts, the bread, the wine, mixed with a little water.
04:39The Holy Spirit will be invoked and the priest will repeat the words of Jesus at the Last Supper.
04:50And the body and blood of the Lord will be present and will truly be there on the altar,
04:58under the species, under the appearance of bread and wine.
05:04But they are the body and blood of the Lord.
05:07And where did the church come up with that idea?
05:11Actually, the church didn't invent it.
05:13Jesus himself invented it.
05:15At the Last Supper, He does that with His disciples.
05:19He teaches them, instructs them, and then institutes the Eucharist.
05:25But it is seen more clearly in chapter 24 of the Gospel of Luke.
05:31The story of the disciples of Emmaus.
05:35What does Jesus do?
05:37The resurrected Jesus is walking along and meets, or rather arrives at the encounter,
05:43of two pilgrims, two disciples, desperate, sad, overwhelmed,
05:48even to the point of being plunged into depression.
05:52They are going towards a village, Emmaus, they are sad and a pilgrim, a stranger, approaches.
06:00They don't recognize him, so he asks them, "Why are you so sad?"
06:04And they're surprised, how can you not know what happened in Jerusalem these days?
06:09And what does Jesus do?
06:11Okay, tell me.
06:12And he listens to them.
06:13They begin to narrate things from their perspective, from their point of view.
06:20And Jesus says to them, "O foolish of heart,"
06:24It was not necessary for the Messiah to suffer this in order to enter into his glory.
06:28And Luke adds, and from the scriptures,
06:31He taught them everything concerning the Messiah, Christ, and Himself.
06:39Then they arrive at their destination,
06:43They invite Jesus to stay with Him and break bread.
06:47Celebrate the Eucharist for them.
06:50And at that moment they discover that it is the resurrected Jesus.
06:53And so, this passage of Scripture,
06:57with his teaching, with his explanation along the way,
07:01It leads to the Eucharist, to the celebration,
07:06by consuming, by eating this bread of life, which is Jesus himself.
07:10This is our life, this is the life of a disciple of Jesus.
07:15We see it clearly at Mass.
07:18We have the readings, we have the teaching,
07:20the explanation of the priest, the bishop, the deacon.
07:23And afterwards, the Eucharistic celebration.
07:25The main celebration for all Christians.
07:32The meaning of the Christian life.
07:36As the first disciples said,
07:39in the time of the Church Fathers,
07:43in the second and third centuries of Christianity,
07:46We cannot live without the Eucharist.
07:48What a great expression, what a great truth,
07:54Above all, what a great feeling that arises from his heart
07:57to talk about this relationship with the Eucharist,
08:02with the Lord present, with this communion,
08:05This is receiving the body of Christ in communion.
08:08And as I say,
08:10the lover is not obligated
08:12to go see his girlfriend.
08:15The bride is not obligated
08:18to receive the groom
08:21or to go for a walk with him
08:22or even marry him.
08:25No, they are not obligated.
08:27Because in love there is no obligation.
08:30Or if we're talking about obligation,
08:31It's because it comes from within.
08:34A mother has the obligation
08:36to take care of their children.
08:38But not an obligation as something
08:39that came to him from outside.
08:41It wasn't the church that told him.
08:43It's not the parents or the in-laws
08:46who told this young lady
08:48who is getting married
08:49and that she has her first child
08:51after several months.
08:53You have an obligation to take care of the baby.
08:55Your son.
08:57No.
08:58It's a feeling.
08:59It's an attitude
09:01that arises from within.
09:03This is our life as disciples.
09:05It's not that I have
09:06the obligation to go to mass.
09:09It's not that I have an obligation
09:11to go and consume the body of Christ.
09:14It's not that my son
09:15have the obligation
09:16to enter catechism.
09:18If we look at it in terms of obligation,
09:21We are not going to persevere.
09:22We will not truly be disciples of Jesus.
09:25We have love,
09:27the relationship
09:27and the duty
09:29for our own good
09:31to nurture this relationship with the Lord.
09:34Now, as I was saying
09:37a moment ago,
09:39we spent in the Eucharistic celebration,
09:41in the celebration of the mass
09:42from the ambo,
09:44from the table
09:45of the word
09:46to the altar table,
09:48to the Eucharistic table.
09:50Certainly at home
09:51I cannot carry the Eucharist.
09:53Certainly in my house
09:54I cannot have the Eucharistic reservation.
09:57Certainly in my house,
09:58in my apartment,
09:59in my fifth,
10:00in the place where I live,
10:01The Eucharistic presence of the Lord is not present.
10:05But I can have a Bible.
10:08And above all,
10:09that I
10:10am
10:11that Eucharist.
10:14That is to say,
10:14I consumed the body of the Lord
10:16and now
10:17that which
10:19I learned
10:20or that which I experienced
10:21at mass
10:22I'll take it
10:23to live
10:24in my family.
10:25That's the meaning
10:26of the word,
10:29of the final sentence
10:30of the mass.
10:32What is it,
10:33siblings,
10:34the most important
10:35in the Eucharistic celebration?
10:38A priest told us
10:39that the most important thing
10:40It is the final sentence.
10:43This is the shipment
10:44on a mission.
10:47Everything is important
10:48at the celebration
10:48of the Eucharist,
10:49of the mass.
10:50We can't add anything.
10:51nor take anything away from him.
10:54Most importantly,
10:56however,
10:56This is the shipment
10:58on a mission.
10:59That's when the priest
11:00or the deacon
11:01if he/she assists him,
11:02is
11:02go,
11:03They can go in peace,
11:05The mass has ended.
11:07It begins
11:09the mission.
11:10In fact,
11:10the word mass
11:11comes from mission,
11:13It comes from the shipment,
11:15because what here
11:16we have celebrated
11:17We have to live through it,
11:19It's our turn
11:19continue it,
11:20perpetuate it.
11:21It ends
11:23the Eucharist
11:24as a celebration,
11:26but the experience
11:26Eucharistic,
11:27so to speak,
11:28I'm going to continue it
11:29all week.
11:32At work,
11:33at school,
11:35in my hobbies,
11:36at the gym,
11:38when I go
11:38on public transport,
11:40and above all,
11:41with
11:42and my family.
11:43And that's why
11:44I was telling them,
11:44siblings,
11:45you have to feel
11:45this cycle
11:46of love,
11:47this cycle
11:48growth
11:49with the Lord
11:50on a Sunday
11:52who calls,
11:54questions
11:55the following Sunday.
11:56It barely ends
11:57the celebration
11:58Eucharistic
11:59and I'm already feeling it
12:01in my heart
12:02the desire
12:03that next Sunday
12:05I want to return
12:06to find
12:07with the Lord.
12:08And why was I talking to them?
12:09having a Bible at home,
12:12to have the little missal
12:13at home,
12:15to have apps
12:15from the Bible?
12:16So that I
12:17continue
12:18as maintaining
12:20the flame
12:20of what I experienced
12:22last Sunday,
12:23prepare
12:24what I'm going to live for
12:25next Sunday
12:26reading the Scriptures.
12:29Do the texts match?
12:30yes or no,
12:31with what I'm going to read
12:33or will he be proclaimed
12:34at mass
12:35next Sunday?
12:37If I can do it,
12:38excellent.
12:39But,
12:39any other text
12:40Can you connect me?
12:42with this
12:43Eucharistic celebration.
12:45And it's not about
12:46from a connection,
12:47It is about
12:48of the other name
12:50of the word
12:51Eucharist,
12:53of this sacrament,
12:54communion.
12:56I take communion,
12:57I'm in,
12:58I make it common,
12:59union
13:00with the Lord
13:01in the bread of life,
13:03in the Eucharist,
13:04but also
13:05in his word.
13:07And in his word
13:08I can find myself
13:09and to make live,
13:11experiment
13:11a communion,
13:12a true
13:13common,
13:14union
13:14spiritual
13:15with the Lord.
13:17And finally,
13:18siblings,
13:18to close
13:20with a flourish,
13:21I'm going to read
13:22the passage
13:23from Mark 14
13:25from
13:25from verse 22.
13:29It is the institution
13:30of the Eucharist.
13:31During dinner
13:33Jesus took bread,
13:34He pronounced the blessing,
13:36He broke it,
13:37He gave it to his disciples
13:38And he said,
13:39take,
13:40This is my body.
13:41Then he took
13:42a chalice,
13:43pronounced
13:44the action
13:44Thank you,
13:45He gave it to his disciples
13:46and they drank
13:47all of him
13:48And he said to them,
13:49This is my blood,
13:50the blood
13:51of the alliance
13:51spilled
13:52by everyone.
13:53I assure you
13:54that I will no longer drink
13:55more of the fruit
13:56of the vine
13:56until the day
13:57that
13:58in which to drink
13:59a new wine
14:00in the kingdom of God.
14:03Siblings,
14:03Why did I read
14:04This narrative?
14:05This institution
14:06of the Eucharist
14:07at the last supper
14:09of Jesus.
14:10In fact,
14:10we found it
14:11equal
14:12or very similar
14:12in Matthew
14:14and in Luke.
14:16And most importantly
14:17is the word
14:18of Jesus
14:19No way.
14:20to be repeated,
14:22in quotation marks,
14:23that word
14:24repeat,
14:25because it's going to be
14:25revived
14:26to make a life
14:28through the words,
14:29through the voice
14:30of the priest
14:31repeating
14:32the words
14:33of Jesus,
14:34This is my body
14:35and it is,
14:36this is.
14:39Eye,
14:39siblings,
14:40because sometimes
14:41we believe that
14:42the bread of life,
14:43Holy shit,
14:44communion
14:45represents
14:46the body
14:46of Christ.
14:47It makes me think
14:48in the body
14:49of Christ.
14:51It evokes
14:51the body
14:52of Christ.
14:54It represents
14:54figure,
14:55imagine,
14:58imagine.
14:58No.
15:00Us,
15:01the disciples
15:02of Jesus,
15:03Christians,
15:04the believers,
15:05Catholics,
15:06we believe
15:07that the bread
15:09life,
15:10communion,
15:11It is the body
15:12of Jesus.
15:13The chalice
15:13that we drink
15:14It is the blood
15:16of Jesus.
15:17Jesus did not say,
15:18this is
15:19what it represents
15:20my body.
15:21This chalice
15:22That's what it represents
15:24my blood.
15:24No.
15:25It is the body
15:27of the Lord.
15:28It's the blood
15:29of the Lord.
15:30How did we discover it?
15:32How are we?
15:33Are you sure?
15:35How can we
15:35to achieve security
15:37total of
15:38this is
15:39the body
15:39of Jesus,
15:40This is
15:41the blood
15:42of Jesus,
15:43the one we take communion with
15:44every Sunday
15:44or each celebration
15:46Eucharistic?
15:46through faith.
15:50If you don't believe
15:51that this
15:53It is the body
15:54of Christ
15:54And you say,
15:55you repeat
15:56that this
15:57represents
15:58the body
15:58of Christ
15:59how do they do it
15:59some brothers
16:00Evangelicals
16:02non-Catholics
16:03with juice
16:05of grapes,
16:05with cookies,
16:07they stay
16:09shorts.
16:10They don't have
16:11faith.
16:12They have no faith
16:13in the mystery
16:13Eucharistic.
16:14We Catholics
16:15we listen
16:16the voice of Jesus
16:17saying
16:18this is
16:19my body
16:20and if he says
16:21is,
16:22It's because it is
16:23to be redundant
16:25the presence
16:26Viva.
16:27the Lord
16:28is present
16:29in the bread of life
16:30in the host
16:31like his body
16:32and in the chalice
16:34like his blood.
16:36It could happen
16:37many minutes
16:39from this video
16:39to explain to them
16:41and repeat to them
16:41This is
16:43which is not
16:46representation
16:47it's not
16:47evoke
16:48it's not
16:49figure
16:49it's not
16:51single memory
16:52this is
16:53the body
16:54of the Lord
16:54This is
16:55the blood
16:56of the Lord
16:56only
16:58We understand
16:59through faith.
16:59I tell you
17:00I can do
17:00a video
17:01lengthy
17:01to talk
17:02about that
17:03only
