00:00At that time John the Baptist was standing with two of his disciples, and they were looking intently at Jesus, who
00:14He said as he walked by, “This is the Lamb of God.” The two disciples, hearing these words, followed him.
00:22Jesus. He turned to them and, seeing that they were following him, asked them, “What are you looking for?” They answered him
00:30They answered, "Where do you live, Rabbi?" Rabbi means teacher. He told them, "Come and see." So they went,
00:40They saw where he lived and stayed with him that day. It was about four in the afternoon. Andrés, brother
00:47Simon Peter was one of the two who heard what John the Baptist said and followed Jesus.
00:54The first person Andrew found was his brother Simon, and he told him, "We have found the Messiah."
01:02which means the anointed one. He brought him to where Jesus was, and Jesus, looking intently at him,
01:09He said to him, “You are Simon, son of John. You will be called Cephas, which means Peter, that is, rock.”
01:19With the second Sunday of Ordinary Time, we properly begin our cycle. Throughout it
01:42We will walk with Jesus, mainly following the Gospel of Saint Mark.
01:50Cycle B, remember, those who haven't heard this catechesis, remember that in the church
01:57We have three different cycles: A, B, and C. A, B, and C don't mean anything.
02:06It's simply a way to distinguish the three cycles. They could have been one, two, and three.
02:12But anyway, it was decided that they would be A, B, and C. And we're currently following cycle B. And this cycle
02:19B, since it follows Mark, Mark is the shortest Gospel, with only 16 chapters. So it will go
02:26interspersed throughout the cycle, in particular, are some fragments from the Gospel of Saint John,
02:33as is the case today, in which the liturgy has preferred to begin, not as the Gospel begins,
02:40Mark, but rather to begin with this call that God makes to the community to participate in his life. This
02:49This is the invitation that we will try to follow throughout our cycle, with the idea that
02:55may we, at the end of it, find that our Christian life has been enriched. The theme that we will discuss today
03:02The liturgy proposes that it has to do with a calling, we call it a vocation, it comes from the Latin verb
03:10vocare, which in Latin simply means to call. And well, calls, to understand it better,
03:18Well, it's this invitation to participate in something. Those who live near the parish,
03:26Well, a little over half an hour ago, they heard the first call, the first vocation. It invited them
03:34The church to participate in the liturgical celebration. Who came? Well, you did.
03:44Many others heard it too, but didn't come, because that's how the call is. We are invited, and each one of us...
03:52He has to answer that call. Do I go or not? And every call, well, obviously he has to, well,
04:01To see included an answer, which, therefore, is not always very convenient. I was telling you today, at the nine o'clock mass,
04:09Well, for those at the nine o'clock mass, the first call, at eight thirty, well, oh, how tiresome, isn't it?
04:18We'd rather keep sleeping, we'd rather be rich. And yet today is a bit of a rough day.
04:23More pleasant. But the call, and the response to this call, will always have certain implications.
04:31Getting up, above all, fit in very well in the morning, the nine o'clock mass, because, well, you have to get up.
04:37Maybe you hear the call and, ah! You have to go to mass and, well, you have to take a quick bath. And then there are those who have children,
04:43Well, I have to rush around with the kids, get ready quickly, and get the kids up. Ugh, what a drag!
04:49And that's when the argument with Mom starts. No, not right now! Not in a little while! What little while? Let's go!
04:53Otherwise, we'll be late for Mass. Many will arrive late to Mass.
04:58But hey, the effort was there, wasn't it? There's a calling, there's a vocation.
05:04And so, some preferred to stay asleep and said, "No! After all, there's mass at 10:45."
05:10And then 12:30, and maybe we won't even make it then. It's better if we meet up in the afternoon, right?
05:18They heard the call, but, well, everyone answers if they want and when they want.
05:25That's how calls are. Well, Jesus invites us today, he invites his disciples.
05:30What is he inviting them to do? He's inviting them to follow him. Why?
05:35Why will he follow the Lord? What invitation does this call contain?
05:42It's an invitation to be happy. We all want to be happy.
05:46And the best way to achieve this is through the Christian life.
05:50Following Christ, that will be the path that will lead us to happiness.
05:56And He invites you to be happy. It is the path He proposes to us.
06:01There are other paths, other calls. There are others who invite us to follow Him.
06:08But to us, to all of you, and to the whole world in general,
06:13He invites you to follow him as a path to happiness.
06:18This path, obviously, this call, will also have certain repercussions.
06:24It involves keeping his commandments.
06:29When we read the Gospel of Matthew, the last verse, verse 20 of chapter 28,
06:36He says, "Teach them to keep everything I teach you."
06:41In other words, make disciples.
06:44What is a disciple?
06:46Today, then, we have little idea of what a disciple is.
06:49Because today we go to universities and schools.
06:54In the time of Jesus, in the first centuries of Christianity, and long before,
07:00The only way to learn was by having a teacher.
07:04And this teacher, then, had, it could be that he chose,
07:08Or it could be that one might earn the right to enter a particular teacher's school,
07:13that will accompany us throughout, practically, our entire lives,
07:18or a major stage of our lives.
07:21This accompaniment, therefore, is what will generate discipleship.
07:25so that the disciple ends up being like the master.
07:30This is what Jesus says.
07:32When a disciple becomes attached to the master,
07:36There will come a time when the disciple will be like his master,
07:39And if you apply more, you'll even surpass it.
07:43And well, that's the idea.
07:46To be disciples.
07:47Brothers, today Jesus invites us to follow him.
07:52In the same way that these disciples followed him,
07:56who discovered it and said,
07:57This is possibly the Messiah.
08:00For us, the invitation is not simply to follow the Messiah,
08:05I don't get too involved in the messianic theme,
08:07but simply to say,
08:10Following Jesus is our opportunity to be truly happy.
08:16It is our opportunity to be truly happy.
08:20This monitoring, therefore,
08:23It has one fundamental characteristic,
08:26And that's what we're going to work on throughout this year.
08:29And well, our whole life.
08:30Therefore, I would like to begin our reflection this morning,
08:38this afternoon,
08:39with the first letter to the Corinthians,
08:41in chapter 2, in verse 16.
08:44In this text, Saint Paul gives us an element that I think is extremely important
08:54and that will help us understand more clearly
08:57what we are looking for throughout our journey this year.
09:06At the very end of verse 16,
09:09the apostle writes,
09:11However, we have the mind of Christ.
09:17The idea of a teacher is that they could develop their own thoughts
09:23so that they would think like him.
09:25If he was a philosopher, in order for them to share the same philosophical perspective,
09:29the same line of thinking.
09:32So, the fundamental idea has to do with this,
09:36in our little heads,
09:37Because it is from our own heads that we begin our journey,
09:40making all our will be directed.
09:43Depending on what's on our minds,
09:46Well, that's what we're going to do.
09:47That is why Saint Paul says,
09:49We have the mind of Christ.
09:52And the first question as we begin our journey this year,
09:57I would be,
09:58and you?
09:58That?
10:03Do you already have the mind of Christ?
10:07Do you think like Him?
10:09Do you act like Him?
10:10Do you feel like Him?
10:11What is it?
10:12What thoughts dominate your heart?
10:17What are the thoughts that make your will move?
10:21Today, brothers, in this multimedia world,
10:27with very strong multimedia capabilities,
10:31Today we have many teachers.
10:34We have, for example, the master of television,
10:37which teaches us about many things that generally have to do with consumerism,
10:43that instills values in people's hearts, especially those of children and young people,
10:50to train them, so that they develop a worldly mindset.
10:55What is the world's mindset?
10:57It's about having a good time.
11:00At what cost?
11:01Whatever.
11:02Have a good time.
11:04Why limit myself?
11:05Why not do what I want?
11:10In this form of multimedia communication that overwhelms us today, we have
11:16We have the master of the Internet, Google, and all the other search tools,
11:22through which we can find countless elements.
11:26People who spend hours and hours on the computer browsing and watching.
11:32And what is that doing?
11:33Well, he's our teacher.
11:35Today, the computer is the teacher of many of us.
11:40We also have cinema.
11:43He is also a teacher who gradually conveys elements to our minds,
11:48through images, through concepts, through situations,
11:52that gradually shape our criteria in a particular way.
11:58As you know, I don't usually go to the movies much, because I don't have much time.
12:03Although I was a huge wood lover, unfortunately I have little time left to go to the movies today.
12:11However, now that I've been a little more rested, the situation...
12:17Around Christmas time, work slows down a bit.
12:21I couldn't go to the cinema, but I had the opportunity to watch a couple of films from the same cycle on video.
12:32Perhaps you have already heard of them or gone to see them.
12:36It's a bestseller, The Hunger Games.
12:38What does The Hunger Games have to offer us, brothers?
12:43Well, although it has some redeeming qualities,
12:47Ultimately, it's about killing each other.
12:51even loved ones, because ultimately only the strongest survive.
12:58Isn't that the world's standard?
13:00It is certainly worth salvaging, especially in the first film,
13:06where, ultimately, we who love each other will not kill each other,
13:11although there's a whole game behind all of this,
13:14So we finally decided to sacrifice ourselves for each other.
13:17Are there values?
13:18Yeah.
13:20But the underlying message, everything it proposes to us,
13:23Well, it's not that, that, that good.
13:26especially for children who are not old enough to see certain scenes,
13:31although they don't have any nudity,
13:33They have many scenes that create situations that are not suitable for a teenager.
13:39And yet, the category it presents is category B,
13:43so it is suitable for teenagers.
13:46And that's where the teenager begins to learn.
13:49And along with this, television.
13:51And along with this, video games.
13:53And then we have teachers who generate thoughts in our heads that are not those of Christ.
14:01How much time do we dedicate to our teacher Jesus throughout the week?
14:08A master, in order to gain control over his disciple,
14:12In order to communicate his thoughts, he needs many hours a day.
14:17Look, I see it with the kids at school, which is no longer a dissipative situation.
14:24I don't know how many hours of math they have, and in the end they don't know how to add.
14:28And don't even get me started on the spelling, it's atrocious.
14:31In other words, there is no follow-up, no discipleship training.
14:40Because?
14:41Because there isn't enough time.
14:43Because today the teacher dedicates 20 minutes to grammar,
14:46and 5 for this, and 8 for another, and the rest he dedicates, well, to other things.
14:50So, this is what's needed.
14:56He invites us to be disciples.
14:59Because?
15:00Because it is the path to happiness.
15:03The world will offer you another path.
15:05You'll be happy if you wear the latest fashion.
15:10So what is influencing that?
15:13Well, then, the girls, the short skirts, and all that kind of stuff,
15:16And you're going to be very happy.
15:17Is that really what brings happiness to life?
15:23We are seeing how it is gradually infiltrating,
15:26and we no longer have the mind of Christ.
15:30That's why the idea this year, my brothers,
15:33It is to respond to this call that the Lord makes to us today,
15:36and begin to work on forming in us the mind of Christ.
15:41I'm sure many of you already have a good part of it formed.
15:45But we must continue working until we all fully have the mind of Christ.
15:52To think like Him, to act like Him, to feel like Him, to love like Him,
15:56Because this is the way to be truly happy.
16:01Everything else the world offers us is pure nonsense.
16:05That's not true, don't believe it, guys, it's not like that.
16:10Although it may seem true, although all these scenes we see on television,
16:15all with beautiful faces, and all of us who we wish we could be,
16:19Well, it's all just a bunch of lies.
16:22In the end, the only way to be happy is to follow Jesus Christ.
16:26There is no other way to be happy than to be a good Christian.
16:33That's why Saint Paul, a quote I'd like you to review if you already have it underlined,
16:40And if not, underline it; it's a very important quote.
16:44In Romans chapter 12,
16:46In verse 2, this quote is very important for us,
16:52because it says,
16:54Do not live according to the criteria of this present time,
16:58On the contrary, change your way of thinking,
17:01so that their way of life changes,
17:04and come to know the will of God,
17:06That is, what is good, what is pleasant, what is perfect.
17:10So, do not conform to this world.
17:18My brothers, let your way of thinking not be that of this world.
17:23There are many redeeming qualities, as I was just telling you about this film,
17:28but many of the world's criteria today,
17:31Like I said, they head for the mountains.
17:35And then our life falls apart,
17:38Happiness is lost.
17:39With fleeting happiness,
17:42with happiness that leads us nowhere.
17:46Boys today think they are happy
17:48because they can go to a party and have a few drinks there,
17:51or because they might smoke or take drugs,
17:54or because they may have relationships with each other.
17:57If they are truly honest,
17:59whoever caused all this mess,
18:02you will realize that in the end,
18:05What follows is more desolation,
18:07It's more sadness.
18:09And that's why it repeats itself,
18:10That's why there's this frantic search for these things.
18:13Because the heart is left so empty,
18:16which makes it necessary to continue practicing it,
18:19so that the heart can have some rest.
18:22While the Christian life does not require this,
18:26And then the heart is always serene,
18:29He is always calm,
18:30He doesn't need all these things,
18:32that simply end up destroying our lives.
18:36The girl who wears the little outfits that are coming up now,
18:43What are you looking for?
18:45Where does he want to go?
18:48What is it that he wants to produce in the minds of men?
18:50What does he mean?
18:52More disorder.
18:54The girl who gets pregnant before marriage,
18:57It's completely ruining his life.
19:01He's ruining his career.
19:03is ruining their future.
19:04And it is very difficult for man to abstain or restrain himself,
19:10Although today we were saying, right?
19:11The apostle Paul said,
19:13Be careful with the issue of fornication,
19:15Well, yes, that's all.
19:18If you go and bite the tiger,
19:20And you keep poking him, and poking him,
19:22However tame,
19:24He's going to jump all over you, right?
19:26So,
19:28That's what the world tells you.
19:29That is the master of the world.
19:31Do not conform to the world's standards,
19:33says Saint Paul,
19:35because they will eventually end up crying,
19:38They're going to end up with a ruined life.
19:42I tell teenagers,
19:43look ahead,
19:44Right now, of course, it's really cool
19:46everything the world has to offer you,
19:48But think about 10 years from now,
19:50in 15 years,
19:51when you're getting married,
19:52Or you should be getting married,
19:55with a completed career,
19:56with a good position in society,
19:59with a boy who truly loves you,
20:01with a girl who truly respects you,
20:04And when you do all this,
20:06you end up in a series of entanglements,
20:08that happiness,
20:10to rescue her,
20:12battles.
20:14Because?
20:16Today Jesus invites you,
20:18It's like the calls to mass,
20:20Whoever wants to go, goes.
20:20And those who don't, don't.
20:22You who are here,
20:23They are enjoying it,
20:24of this celebration,
20:25They are letting God fill their hearts,
20:28And I'm sure they're going to come out with a message,
20:30and with a heart full of God's love,
20:32after receiving communion.
20:34Those who didn't come,
20:36well no.
20:38There's the call.
20:40What did this imply?
20:41Well, having to come,
20:42and get up,
20:42and bring,
20:43stop watching a game,
20:45I don't know.
20:45But what you get as a reward,
20:49That's what needs to be valued.
20:51on the call.
20:52They invited me,
20:53And I'm going.
20:55They invited me,
20:56And I answer.
20:57And that's the call, then.
20:58first,
20:59The first call is,
21:02so that you may be,
21:03a good Christian.
21:05Saint John,
21:06in his first letter,
21:07in chapter 2,
21:08in verse 15,
21:10in verse 17,
21:10makes a similar invitation,
21:14a bit,
21:15a little more,
21:16more extensive,
21:17But I think it's worth reading.
21:22That's probably possible too,
21:24These are important appointments,
21:25that we have already,
21:27revised.
21:28First of Saint John,
21:30Chapter 2,
21:31verse 15.
21:34Do not love the world,
21:36nor what is in the world.
21:38If anyone loves the world,
21:39does not love the Father,
21:41because nothing of what,
21:43in the world,
21:44It exists,
21:45offers,
21:46life,
21:47and comes from the Father,
21:48but of the world itself.
21:50And this is what the world offers,
21:52ill wishes,
21:53of human nature,
21:54the desire to possess,
21:56that which pleases the eyes,
21:57and the pride of riches.
22:00But the world,
22:01It's coming to an end,
22:01with all his evil wishes.
22:03Instead,
22:04He who does the will of God,
22:07live forever.
22:08Me here,
22:08I would add,
22:10He who does the will of God,
22:12She will be happy.
22:14You will be happy.
22:16And this is what I believe we all want,
22:18to be happy.
22:20We're not because we head for the mountains,
22:23because we follow the world's standards,
22:25And then we fail to achieve happiness.
22:29So,
22:30I invite you,
22:31at this initial moment,
22:33that this year,
22:34Let's try to fill our heads,
22:37of the world's criteria,
22:39And let's be very careful,
22:41Based on what we see,
22:42based on what we heard,
22:44with everything in the world,
22:45He's trying to put it into our heads,
22:48so that we don't have,
22:49a worldly mind,
22:51that is going to end,
22:52by worldly standards,
22:53that are going to end,
22:54for completely ruining,
22:56our life.
22:57Now then,
22:59this call,
23:00to be Christians,
23:02has,
23:03a particular form,
23:04to be lived,
23:06which it may be,
23:08in the consecrated life,
23:10that is to say,
23:10I'm not going to get married.
23:12or,
23:14I'm getting married,
23:15They are two ways of living,
23:16There is no other,
23:18or I'll get married,
23:19Or I won't get married.
23:20Okay?
23:22Which is it,
23:24What do we have to do?
23:25how we have to live,
23:27Where is happiness?
23:30The world,
23:31He's going to tell you,
23:31because these are the ways,
23:32to live off humanity,
23:34to marry or not to marry.
23:35What will the world tell you?
23:37if it is,
23:38not to get married?
23:39Why are you getting married?
23:41Nothing but problems.
23:43You see the problems,
23:44with your parents,
23:45And you also had a family,
23:47where there were many problems,
23:49and all this,
23:50you say,
23:50No,
23:51Enough,
23:52Why am I getting married?
23:53I'm not getting married.
23:54And there are many,
23:55who decide,
23:56not to get married.
23:59And how do they live their lives?
24:02Well, they live it.
24:03Those who do not accept,
24:04this first call,
24:06the second,
24:07what is it,
24:07to the particular vocation,
24:09How are they going to experience it?
24:10as the world tells them.
24:12And then,
24:14well,
24:15now yes,
24:16Let's give it a try.
24:17flight to the thread.
24:19Yeah?
24:20And we see today,
24:21so many boys,
24:22so many young people,
24:22who no longer get married,
24:24who live it up,
24:25But I'm happy about it.
24:27They work well,
24:28They have a good salary,
24:29Imagine,
24:29as we grow up,
24:31Well, we're improving.
24:32also of position,
24:34We already have a good job,
24:35We have a good position,
24:36and then,
24:38well,
24:39our world teacher,
24:40He tells you,
24:41now yes,
24:41Enjoy it,
24:42buddy.
24:43Buy a car,
24:44buy a house,
24:46travels,
24:47Get dressed,
24:47Go this way,
24:48Go that way,
24:50spend,
24:51spend,
24:52enjoy,
24:53that the body,
24:55as they say,
24:55TRUE?
24:55Let the body feel
24:57what it receives,
24:57No?
25:00There's a saying that goes,
25:01Okay,
25:02that the body feels
25:03what he receives.
25:03And that's how they're going to stay.
25:07all his life.
25:11Like now,
25:12even,
25:12well,
25:12the topic of sex,
25:13that might have been a factor before,
25:15because before the girls
25:16They told them,
25:17No,
25:17Well, if you want,
25:18First we got married
25:19and then we talked,
25:21TRUE?
25:21But not today,
25:23today if you want,
25:24Well, I want to too.
25:25Well, let's give it a go
25:25Let's get down to business.
25:27TRUE?
25:29And then,
25:30So why am I getting married now?
25:31I have everything,
25:32wool,
25:33position,
25:35freedom,
25:36I don't have to answer to him.
25:37to no one,
25:38My wool is for me.
25:40And then,
25:41well,
25:42if I already have
25:43this extra,
25:44No?
25:45So why am I getting married now?
25:48That's the thought.
25:49of the world.
25:52What does the Lord tell us?
25:54I wish you could see
25:55what the Lord tells us
25:56in 1 Corinthians,
25:58in chapter 7.
25:59in verse 7.
26:08Says,
26:09personally,
26:10I wish everyone
26:11were like me,
26:12that is to say,
26:13who don't get married,
26:15consecrated.
26:19But God
26:22has given to each one
26:23a different gift.
26:27He has given them
26:28different gifts,
26:29to some of a class
26:30and others of another kind.
26:32That is to say,
26:33marry
26:34It's a gift
26:35and remain single
26:37It's a gift.
26:38What do you recommend?
26:40the apostle?
26:41Go to verse
26:4236.
26:48Let me see.
26:54Verse 32.
26:56The entirety of chapter 7
26:58It's a super catechesis
26:59on this topic
27:00that I'm trying.
27:01Okay?
27:01They can read it,
27:03reread it,
27:03It's a tremendous catechesis
27:05on this topic
27:07of vocation.
27:09But I read
27:10verse 32.
27:11Says,
27:12I would like to free them
27:14to you
27:14of worries.
27:16The one who is single
27:17worries
27:18because of things
27:19of the Lord
27:19and because it's pleasant.
27:22But the one who is married
27:23worries
27:24because of things
27:24of the world
27:25and to please
27:26to his wife.
27:27And that's how it's divided.
27:29Likewise,
27:29the woman
27:29who no longer has a husband
27:31and the young single woman
27:32worries
27:33of things
27:34of the Lord
27:34for being saints
27:36both in the body
27:36as in the spirit.
27:38But the married woman
27:39it takes care of
27:39because of things
27:40of the world
27:40and to please
27:41to her husband.
27:43I'm not telling you this
27:43to put them
27:44a restriction
27:45but for good
27:46of you
27:46and so that they may live
27:47in a dignified manner
27:48serving the Lord
27:50without distractions.
27:51That is to say,
27:52There are gifts,
27:53some called
27:55to life
27:56of being single.
27:58Saint Paul says
27:58That would be best.
27:59without so many problems.
28:02The day they tire me out
28:04you
28:04and I couldn't stand them anymore
28:05or you can't stand me anymore
28:08me
28:08They are going with the bishop
28:09And they're going to tell him
28:10Hey sir
28:10Please take it away.
28:13Already,
28:13Okay.
28:15To spit fleas
28:16elsewhere.
28:17And when I get tired
28:19of you
28:20I'm also going to tell him
28:20Hey sir
28:21Enough is enough.
28:23Already.
28:24What concern?
28:25We slept peacefully
28:26you and I.
28:29But not the married one.
28:32They had a fight
28:33And there they go
28:34and then the woman
28:34what is
28:35She's not hysterical
28:36It is historic.
28:39It will be agreed
28:40all day
28:41that the husband
28:43I don't know what he said to her.
28:44in the morning
28:45and to the husband
28:46as soon as it turned on
28:47the car
28:47He's already forgotten
28:48TRUE?
28:49But the woman
28:50he didn't put it in
28:52and also
28:52spoke with the neighbor
28:53and with the godmother
28:54and when it arrives
28:55the husband
28:56glad
28:57and happy
28:57to the house
28:58the woman

32:08passing in me
32:09the normal thing is
32:11that we like
32:12to men
32:12women
32:13But that doesn't mean
32:14that I want to live
32:15and go live
32:15with a woman
32:16and that also
32:19we have desires
32:20and that also
32:21as if suddenly
32:22bilirubin
32:22and all the others
32:23substances of the body
32:24they accelerate
32:25also

32:27and bone
32:28But there is a calling
32:30There is a call
32:32there is a desire
32:33to follow the Lord
32:34as Paul says
32:35pleasing him
32:37nothing else

32:45along with other parts
32:46and man the same
32:47They are called vocations
32:49exclusivity

32:53to follow him
32:54first to him
32:55with the criteria
32:57of the gospel

33:41with a text
33:42marvelous
33:43which is in chapter 5
33:44starting from verse 22
33:46from the letter
33:47to the Ephesians
33:48a text that we have reviewed
33:49already on many occasions
33:51last year
33:52at the party
33:53of the Holy Family
33:54I elaborated at length
33:56in this text
33:56from the letter
33:57to the Ephesians
33:58I'll summarize it briefly today.
34:00with some indications
34:01so that we don't forget
34:03verse 22
34:06refers to
34:07to the woman
34:08says
34:10women
34:10obey
34:13to their husbands
34:13That's what it says
34:16what the world says
34:17Tell him to go to hell
34:19Don't let it control you
34:22You have here
34:24You are the same.
34:25that he
34:25and so
34:26Do it however you want
34:27you husbands
34:28because here
34:29iguanas frogs
34:31That's what the world says
34:33the result
34:35a flood of divorces
34:37issues
34:39children who have
34:41two dads
34:42two moms
34:43three moms
34:44three dads
34:45a mess
34:46a mess
34:49for listening to him
34:52to the world
34:52Do you think that child
34:54Is he happy?
34:54No
34:55He is not happy
34:57because we are not
34:59made to have
35:00two moms
35:00nor two dads
35:01but only one
35:02and when
35:03We left
35:04of the lines
35:05of nature
35:06perfectly created
35:07For God's sake
35:08We're going to have problems
35:09what's happening
35:12when the wife
35:13Doesn't she respect her husband?
35:14domestic violence
35:15Who receives it?
35:17all

35:33I mean, what's the point?
35:37you make it bigger
35:38the lawsuit?
35:40Does that lead me to
35:41to happiness?
35:41No
35:42Why does it work?
35:46Is this so?
35:46because of that movement
35:48feminist
35:48And where does it come from?
35:50the movement
35:51feminist?
35:52It comes from a
35:52reaction
35:53says
35:55the old saying
35:56that you see I like
35:57many proverbs
35:58says
35:58The donkey was not skittish
36:00They beat him with sticks
36:02TRUE?
36:03imagine
36:03the woman
36:04always submissive
36:06always
36:06yes my love
36:07yes my love
36:07Whatever you say
36:08What was being said?
36:09Oh, oh
36:09the poor lady
36:12and the poor woman
36:13that could withstand everything
36:14mistreatment
36:15blows
36:15abuse
36:16have it already
36:17abandoned
36:18They don't take it out
36:19a nuisance
36:20one thing
36:20Well, he said
36:23Hey
36:24Tell your story
36:25It's a reaction
36:27the movement
36:27feminist
36:28It is the current
36:32of the world
36:33that he never read
36:34the following
36:34verses
36:35from the
36:37verse 24
36:39she tells her husband
36:40love your wives
36:41like Christ
36:43He loves his church.
36:43that is to say
36:44dying for them
36:45love your wives
36:47as they love their own
36:49body
36:50But we didn't read that.
36:53and then
36:55the man
36:56as it says
36:58the word
36:59No
36:59You are here
37:00the head
37:01and you're in charge
37:02And you say
37:02And you this
37:03yes, yes, yes, yes
37:04Yes, yes
37:05but everything
37:05the power
37:06that is given
37:07to a man
37:08in writing
37:09It is unique
37:10and exclusively
37:11to serve
37:12if I have power
37:16as their parish priest
37:17It's not for them to do it
37:18whatever I want
37:19but to serve them
37:23better
37:23my power
37:25That makes sense
37:27when I serve
37:28when my power
37:30I use it
37:30to tyrannize
37:31when my power
37:33I use it
37:33to subjugate
37:34when my power
37:35I use it
37:36to control
37:37then my power
37:39It doesn't make sense.
37:41as a product
37:43from this
37:43Rebellions are coming
37:45as a product
37:46The rebellion is coming
37:48of the woman
37:48against man
37:49Yeah
37:50but if the man

37:57to follow
37:58his steps
37:59to stop
38:00the mindset
38:00of the world
38:01what does he say
38:01to the woman
38:02nor all the money
38:03nor all the love
38:04Those are stupid things.
38:06what the world says
38:07if the man
38:08would have read
38:10these verses
38:11and lived them
38:12siblings
38:12the world would be different
38:14There would be no feminists
38:15What a woman!
38:16who has a husband
38:18who goes out of their way
38:19by him
38:19for her
38:20that gives him everything

38:37on the contrary
38:38I was telling them

38:43in that homily
38:44I was telling them
38:4480%
38:46of the causes
38:48of
38:48divorce
38:50are caused
38:52by the
38:53poor service
38:54of the spouses
38:55in the handcuffs
38:56there
38:57begin
38:58the disorder
38:59that then
39:01with everything else

39:04But there it is.
39:05a large spotlight
39:07attention

39:09We need to be happy
39:11We need to help.
39:11to the wife
39:12to be happy
39:12to the children
39:13to be happy
39:14says the Lord
39:16don't separate
39:17what God joined together
39:20that do not separate them
39:21the man
39:22That is the will
39:23because?
39:24because we were created
39:25living
39:26in this relationship
39:27perfect
39:28of man
39:28and the woman
39:29He called us
39:30to be a couple
39:31to live in community
39:33but with certain rules
39:35because in the community
39:36where there are no rules
39:37it becomes anarchy
39:39and this leads
39:40to disorder
39:41to violence
39:42and finally
39:43to destruction
39:45spouses
39:46love your wives
39:49like Christ
39:49He loves his church.
39:50handcuffs
39:51attend to your husbands
39:54obey them
39:55be submissive
39:56the husband
39:57when he gives an order
39:59is thinking
40:00for your own good
40:01is thinking
40:02in good
40:03of the community
40:03And if that's not the case
40:04that person
40:06She is not Christian
40:07is not following
40:08the will
40:09of God
40:10and has not responded
40:11to the first calling
40:12And if we don't respond
40:13on the first call
40:15siblings
40:16then our whole life
40:18little by little
40:19It's getting complicated
40:21and those who are not called
40:24to married life
40:25because they are called
40:27to consecrated life
40:28and consecrated life
40:30we can live it
40:31in a community
40:32as nuns
40:33There are some
40:34that are called
40:35to become religious
40:36some truth
40:40They are called
40:41to become religious
40:42and others
40:45They are called
40:47to be
40:47priests
40:49priests
40:50of the Lord
40:50What is the importance?
40:53of both?
40:54very important
40:55in the project
40:56of happiness
40:56of Christian society
40:58the so-called
41:00to consecrate
41:01as religious
41:03or religious
41:04they
41:05they have to be
41:06the model
41:07of the first community
41:09What does it tell us?
41:10about this
41:10Writing?
41:12Let's see
41:12Acts chapter
41:142
41:15verse 44
41:16and 45
41:17all believers

41:27your assets
41:27each other
41:28they sold
41:30its properties
41:31and everything they had
41:32and they distributed
41:33the money
41:34according to the needs
41:35of each one
41:36so
41:38the religious
41:40They are called
41:41to show him
41:42to the world
41:42that it has to be
41:44a world

41:45because when we detach ourselves
41:48of everything we have
41:49ready to move in
41:50in community

41:52Well, we are...

42:34like Francis
42:35like everyone else who
42:38we have embraced
42:39religious life
42:40and consecrated
42:41what we say
42:41well then
42:42We'll leave this here
42:44which is mine
42:44nothing
42:45everything is
42:46of all
42:46the priest
42:49elsewhere
42:50It has a mission
42:52very important
42:53in the community
42:54Christian
42:55the form
42:57like us

43:00which leads us
43:01to happiness
43:01is
43:02sinless
43:03and for that purpose
43:05need
43:06since we are
43:07weak
43:08and sinners
43:09need
43:10someone
43:10that reconciles us
43:11yes it's true
43:13that God
43:14He is merciful
43:15and that the brothers
43:17separated
43:17they say
43:18No, I confess
43:19with God
43:19And He is the one who forgives me
43:21Of course He is the one who forgives you
43:22no one has power
43:24to forgive
43:25but only God
43:26however
43:27Jesus
43:28in the chapter
43:2920
43:31starting from verse
43:32St. John's Day 19
43:34He gave them power
43:35to a group
43:36of men
43:37and he told them
43:38to those of you
43:39May they forgive them
43:40I forgive them
43:42those who do not forgive
43:44I do not forgive them
43:46How beautiful, brothers.
43:48within the community
43:49knowledge
43:50that we who have decided
43:52accept the call
43:53of Christ
43:54to follow him
43:55we will be able to find
43:56a person
43:57here on earth
43:58that it will impose
43:59his hand on my head
44:00And he's going to tell me
44:01I
44:02In the name of the Lord
44:04I forgive you
44:05I
44:05I forgive you
44:06because they gave me
44:08this power
44:09to do it
44:10And then I'll leave safely
44:12They already forgave me
44:14I'm coming back again
44:16to peace
44:18to serenity
44:19in my heart
44:20path towards the
44:22happiness
44:23And what happiness!
44:24a priest feels
44:25siblings
44:26when you can
44:27reconcile
44:28to a brother
44:30when can you tell
44:31that person
44:32who comes in distress
44:33who comes sad
44:35because it has lost
44:37happiness
44:38with sin
44:39and the priest
44:40It helps
44:41and gives him reconciliation
44:44and tells him
44:44brother
44:45welcome
44:46If they saw
44:46so many joys
44:47I think that
44:48of my moments
44:49happier
44:50throughout my entire priestly life
44:51I have lived through them
44:52in the confessional
44:53I'm telling you this.
44:54all
44:55my moments
44:56most beautiful
44:57I have lived through them
44:58in the confessional
45:00seeing brothers
45:01and sisters
45:01that have changed
45:03his life
45:03and that God
45:04has touched
45:05deeply
45:06his heart
45:06need
45:09priests
45:10It is a vocation
45:12It is a call
45:13all
45:13No
45:14not all
45:16I have others
45:17two brothers
45:18happily
45:19married
45:19I am the only one
45:22priest
45:22from my house
45:23all
45:24No
45:25some
45:26Yeah
45:26We need to listen
45:28because otherwise
45:29you get married
45:30I mean
45:32if you get married
45:33and you were called
45:34to become a priest
45:35your life never
45:37will have happiness
45:38that you could have had
45:39when I think
45:42married I say
45:42Well, I think that
45:43if I had done it
45:44except when
45:46I'm getting the vibe
45:47about what
45:47we need to put
45:48the right things
45:49My poor children
45:50I think it would have
45:51a living hell
45:51because my dad already
45:54He didn't do them
45:54more or less
45:55us
45:55That's why I am the way I am.
45:56half square
45:57Now imagine
45:58me multiplied
45:59And if I got married
46:00with a woman
46:01equally square
46:02innocent
46:03creatures
46:04as they say
46:08God does not give him
46:09wings to scorpions
46:10so
46:12I'm
46:13very happy
46:14and very happy
46:15in my vocation
46:16who follows
46:18the vocation
46:19of the Lord
46:20will be happy
46:21the priest
46:22besides
46:23can bring us
46:24bread
46:24that gives life
46:25necessary
46:26for the road
46:27without priests
46:29how could we
46:31walk happily
46:32and with certainty
46:33if we don't have
46:34the food
46:34Eucharistic
46:35So then
46:37my brothers
46:37We started the year
46:39with a call
46:40we're going to have
46:42the mind of Christ
46:43we're going to do
46:44that our life
46:45leave
46:45Christifying
46:46increasingly
46:47increasingly
46:48this year
46:48searching
46:49remove a little
46:50all these things
46:51that they keep putting in
46:52the world's criteria
46:53and on the other hand
46:54Let's look for
46:55to become more Christ-like
46:56more our heart
46:58so that?
46:59so that we can
47:00reply
47:00properly
47:02to the call
47:03life
47:04that God has made us
47:05to the single man
47:06so that he/she can hear
47:07that God can
47:11calling

47:16that he may be
47:18calling marriage
47:19or to life
47:21consecrated
