00:00As a culmination of the theme,
00:29on the use of money, poverty and wealth,
00:34Luke presents us with one of his own parables,
00:37the story of the wicked rich man and the story of Lazarus,
00:40the poor man who has already thrown himself at the doors of that man's home.
00:45Lucas delights in a number of very rich elements
00:49that make the parable resonate within us.
00:54It is true that he will have to decide if in the end
00:57both the rich man's brothers who survived
01:01And we, the readers of the work,
01:04We learn from the fate of the rich,
01:07Or if, on the contrary, we ignore his teachings
01:11and his invitation to change attitude
01:14in the face of the needs of the poor.
01:16Lucas may view it with some suspicion.
01:20wealth or the rich themselves
01:23as men who do not hesitate to act with compassion
01:27given the needs,
01:29the pain and misery of those who suffer.
01:33The narrative has been structured into two parables,
01:37the life of the rich,
01:39the life of the poor,
01:40their lifestyles,
01:41the same destination,
01:44death
01:44and the radical change
01:46of the situation of both
01:48after death.
01:51Luke introduces the rich man
01:52like a man who dressed lavishly,
01:56as if he were a prince,
01:58who ate splendidly
02:00and he threw parties every day.
02:03With that, he declares
02:04that the man lived surrounded by money and possessions,
02:08which come to light
02:11because of this way of spending them
02:12or in Luke's vision,
02:15waste them.
02:17For their part,
02:18The poor man lay at the rich man's door,
02:22He was covered not in purple and linen,
02:25but of sores,
02:27He did not feast lavishly,
02:30but wished
02:31at least eat the crumbs
02:34that fell from the rich man's table
02:35and instead of parties,
02:38The dogs were approaching
02:39luckier than the poor man
02:41and they gave themselves the time and the opportunity
02:44to lick the sores of the poor.
02:47But brothers,
02:48at the time of his death,
02:50Destinations change radically.
02:53The rich man was only buried,
02:56That's all.
02:57The poor thing,
02:58The angels carried him to Abraham's bosom.
03:01Of the rich it is said
03:03who is in Hades,
03:05suffering torments,
03:08and from this moment on,
03:09He does what he never did on Earth.
03:13He had time to look at Lazarus,
03:15in the distance,
03:16in Abraham's bosom.
03:18The rich man knew the poor man's name.
03:20that lay at the entrance of his house,
03:23and expects from him
03:24moisten your finger
03:26and refresh his tongue.
03:27Abraham reminds the rich man
03:30that the time to do good
03:32lost
03:33when death occurred.
03:36At the present moment,
03:38nothing can be done
03:39to change that situation.
03:42The evil that the rich suffer
03:44It has nothing to do with it
03:45with the possession of riches
03:47or goods,
03:49but because of their inability
03:50to look at the poor
03:53and share with him
03:55some of his assets.
03:56Their lifestyle
03:58It was an insult.
03:59to the miserable life of Lazarus.
04:01That's why
04:02that Lazarus is comforted
04:04and he was tormented.
04:07God is not incompatible
04:08with the riches,
04:09but the man
04:10You must learn how to use them
04:12for their own good.
04:15But not in this world,
04:16but in the one to come,
04:18where there will be no more opportunities,
04:21no rest,
04:22nor consolation,
04:22for those who were not able
04:25to console
04:25to the homeless
04:27of this world.
04:28Jesus knows
04:29that men
04:30we can sin
04:31because of our nature
04:33may tend
04:34to evil
04:35and to rebellion.
04:36However,
04:38we must avoid
04:38at any cost
04:39that our lifestyle
04:41cause a scandal
04:43in little people,
04:44simple and humble.
04:47That's why,
04:47When a brother sins,
04:49He turns away from God.
04:50The Christian
04:52has the responsibility
04:54to correct
04:55to the brother who sins,
04:57because in this life
04:58We are jointly responsible
05:00of eschatological destiny
05:02of our brothers.
05:04We cannot be indifferent
05:06in the face of the possible
05:07permanent loss
05:08from someone
05:09who is very beloved
05:11for us,
05:12people that God
05:13entrusts us
05:14so that we may love her.
05:17However,
05:17to take that step
05:19it is necessary
05:20mature
05:21in trust
05:22in God.
05:23That's why,
05:24the apostles
05:25They ask Jesus
05:26that increases
05:27their faith.
05:28Faith
05:28It's about trust.
05:30total
05:30in fidelity
05:32and divine loyalty.
05:34We don't expect miracles
05:36nor wondrous things.
05:38Only those who have faith,
05:40He who trusts in God,
05:42because he knows
05:43who does not lie,
05:44It doesn't fail,
05:45nor does it deceive,
05:45is capable
05:47of shares
05:48magnificent
05:49that speak
05:50of their friendship
05:51and intimacy
05:52with God.
05:53Christians
05:55They are called
05:56For God's sake
05:56as servers
05:57in such a way
05:59that they should always
06:00bear fruit,
06:02obey,
06:03be faithful
06:04and comply
06:05with which
06:06They are sent.
06:08Jesus invites us
06:09to overcome
06:10the incomplete vision
06:11of those who thought
06:12that every divine gift
06:14is fruit
06:15from one's own work.
06:17Men
06:17we believe
06:18that God
06:19incurs debts
06:20with us
06:20when we fulfill
06:22his will,
06:23when we do
06:24what he asks of us,
06:26when we perform
06:27what he entrusts to us.
06:29However,
06:30We are not day laborers
06:31to whom
06:32they have
06:32to pay
06:33for their work.
06:35We are servants
06:36or slaves
06:37for those who
06:38the reward
06:39is to fulfill
06:40the will
06:41of our Lord.
06:41For the slave
06:43or the servant,
06:44do what
06:45they ask him
06:46It must be
06:47your true reward.
06:50Views like this
06:50things,
06:51when the Christian
06:52does what
06:53Jesus asks him,
06:54cannot wait
06:55give him a salary
06:57or be rewarded.
06:59On the contrary,
07:00if it complies
07:01what they ask of him,
07:02He'll have time
07:03to do
07:04new tasks
07:05and comply
07:05with new
07:06encomiendas,
07:07because ahead
07:08of God
07:09nobody
07:10has rights,
07:11only obligations,
07:13but despite
07:14of everything,
07:16God has willed
07:16to have an obligation
07:18towards us,
07:19to give us salvation
07:21through
07:22of his Son
07:22Christ.
07:24When the Christian
07:26realizes
07:27that God
07:28He is generous,
07:29the only attitude
07:30valid
07:31that remains
07:32for assuming
07:33It is gratitude,
07:35just as it does
07:36the leper
07:37Samaritan
07:37that asks
07:38to Jesus
07:39along with others
07:40nine lepers
07:41that had
07:42compassion
07:43of them.
07:44Along the way,
07:46the ten men
07:47regain their health
07:48or they remain pure
07:49from his leprosy,
07:51but only one
07:51of them
07:52understands
07:53benevolence
07:54of the gift
07:55and returns
07:56praising God
07:57and prostrates himself
07:58in front of Jesus.
08:00The other nine
08:02they only manage
08:03physical health
08:04or bodily,
08:06something that they
08:06could give
08:07a certain satisfaction
08:09as soon as
08:10that they could
08:11reintegrate
08:12to the community
08:12to celebrate
08:14the cult
08:15of the Lord.
08:16But the man
08:17who returned
08:17grateful
08:18he went away
08:19not only
08:20with health,
08:21but with
08:22salvation,
08:23which is the maximum
08:24gift that Jesus
08:25can give us
08:27when we
08:28We draw near to Him.
08:29The cures
08:30that performs
08:31Jesus
08:32causes
08:33that some
08:33Christians
08:34that they don't understand
08:35altogether
08:36the ministry
08:37of Jesus
08:37and to whom
08:38Lucas calls
08:39Pharisees
08:40ask him
08:41about the arrival
08:43of the kingdom
08:43of God.
08:44They want
08:45know
08:45when will it arrive
08:46said reign
08:48divine.
08:49But Jesus
08:50he explains to them
08:51that the kingdom
08:52of God
08:52It is being carried out
08:53in a way
08:54serene and humble
08:55in the ministry
08:57of Jesus
08:57among the poor,
08:59sick,
09:00needy,
09:01marginalized
09:02and small.
09:04It's not that
09:05said kingdom
09:05is yet to come,
09:07It has already begun
09:08to come
09:08in the person
09:10and actions
09:10of Jesus.
09:12The joy
09:13to keep in mind
09:14to Jesus
09:15that with their
09:16words
09:16and actions
09:17is being carried out
09:18the presence
09:19of the kingdom
09:20of God
09:20among his followers
09:22can cause
09:23that people
09:24wish
09:25both his return
09:26that they get excited
09:28with any
09:29fake ad.
09:30making it
09:31fall
09:32in error.
09:33The return
09:34of the Son
09:35of Man
09:35will be done
09:37in sight
09:37of all
09:38and not in a way
09:39hidden
09:40as if it happened
09:42with her first
09:43and humble
09:43appearance.
09:45However,
09:46before the glory
09:47The cross is coming.
09:50For their part,
09:51the Christian,
09:52despite complying
09:53with their responsibilities
09:55daily
09:56and perform
09:57your obligations
09:58and even
09:59when it happens
10:00time
10:00to enjoy
10:01or enjoy,
10:03should not
10:03lose sight of
10:04which follows
10:05waiting
10:06the return
10:06of his Lord.
10:08Don't be
10:08that by dedicating
10:10fully
10:10to daily life
10:11forget about the return
10:13from your Savior,
10:15be taken
10:15by surprise
10:16and perish
10:18like everyone else.
10:20This provision
10:22and wait
10:22it shows
10:24in the resignation
10:25to the very
10:26estate,
10:27even
10:27to the greater good
10:28par excellence,
10:30life itself.
10:32And in the end,
10:33those who have been
10:34faithful
10:34and obedient
10:35will be taken
10:37with his Lord
10:38and those who
10:39have disobeyed
10:40or have been unfaithful
10:42will be abandoned.
10:45A new topic
10:46is treated
10:47through Jesus,
10:48the topic
10:48of the prayer.
10:50Lucas says
10:50to invite
10:52to remain
10:52always
10:53in attitude
10:54of prayer,
10:55Jesus taught
10:56a parable
10:57about a judge
10:58who acted
10:59according to their own
11:00convictions
11:01ignoring
11:02the law
11:03of Moses
11:03and day after day
11:05I went to him
11:06a widow
11:07that he demanded
11:08would do him justice.
11:10The insistence
11:11of the woman
11:12is the trigger
11:14which leads him
11:15to be carried out
11:15what they ask of him.
11:17It is not his aim
11:18of justice,
11:20It is not in their interest
11:21for the good
11:22from your client,
11:24it's more like
11:25the need
11:26to remove
11:27above
11:27to a person
11:28bothers
11:29and insistent.
11:31Well then,
11:32Jesus says,
11:33if the judge
11:34attended
11:34the order
11:35of the widow
11:36because of their insistence,
11:38then the disciples
11:39We must insist
11:41in our prayer
11:42bye bye,
11:43because he
11:44Yes, he is a judge.
11:45who judges
11:46justly
11:47and it won't take long
11:49his benevolence
11:50about their children.
11:53However,
11:53siblings,
11:54to remain
11:55in the prayer
11:56entrusted to the Father
11:58it is necessary
11:59stay
12:00in faith,
12:01in that attitude
12:02fully trustworthy
12:04and delivery
12:05to divine faithfulness,
12:07because God
12:08always watch
12:09for his own
12:10and performs
12:11his promises.
12:13This faith
12:14What is trust?
12:15in God
12:16must be shown
12:17abandoned
12:19to His mercy,
12:20because the goods
12:22that God gives us
12:23offers them
12:24because he is compassionate
12:26and merciful,
12:28and not because we
12:29Let's be fair
12:30or good.
12:31That's why Jesus
12:32wants to illuminate
12:33trust
12:34in divine mercy
12:36more than in the own
12:38capabilities
12:39when it offers us
12:40the parable
12:41of the Pharisee
12:42and the tax collector
12:43who went to the temple
12:45to exalt God
12:46their prayers.
12:48The Pharisee
12:49He is a man
12:50which does more
12:51of what they ask of him.
12:53In that sense
12:54He is a generous man
12:55which gives more
12:56of what is expected
12:57his.
12:58But brothers,
13:00because of that generosity
13:01think that God
13:02has certain obligations
13:04bilateral
13:06towards him.
13:07The Pharisee
13:08think
13:08that God
13:09has contracted
13:10with the
13:10a debt
13:11due
13:12to the strict
13:13observance
13:14that the Pharisee
13:15makes of Jewish law.
13:18This is not appropriate
13:19of the Christian.
13:20This must assume
13:22an attitude
13:23dependency
13:24God's totality.
13:25They are not their own
13:27works
13:27the ones that suit her
13:29to achieve
13:29of God
13:30forgiveness,
13:31the justification
13:32or the sky.
13:34It is God
13:35who through his benevolence
13:37and compassion,
13:38through his mercy,
13:39Saint Luke will say
13:41that he
13:42it gives us
13:42grace
13:43of his forgiveness,
13:45of his justice
13:46and of eternal life.
13:48And to emphasize
13:49his teaching
13:50about this attitude
13:51humble reception
13:53and dependence
13:54Total to God
13:55as a father,
13:56Jesus tells them
13:57to his disciples
13:58that they must welcome
14:00the kingdom of God
14:01with the same attitude
14:02with which a child
14:04live your life,
14:06spontaneously,
14:07knowing himself to be in need
14:09from their parents
14:10because it depends
14:11of them,
14:12filled with amazement
14:13for all that
14:15that surrounds them
14:16and finally,
14:18knowing that nothing
14:19they have to be able to
14:20to be recognized
14:21as your credential
14:23access
14:23to divine goods.
14:25Thank you!
14:27Thank you!
