00:00Well, let's return again to the topic of our church, which is a church that
00:26As we have already seen, we are also going to return now, but in more depth, to the topic of
00:31structure and also the issue of hierarchy, so I would like to conclude this chapter with
00:39a brief review of the church, but from the point of view of its hierarchical structure
00:47Although we already covered this in our first course, these are things we shouldn't forget, especially.
00:54A church like the one we've seen today, which is divided and speaks ill of the hierarchy in many places, then
01:01It's important to recognize that we can't be part of this and that we have to move on.
01:08With a church of unity, then it is important to talk about our hierarchy, especially one
01:15a church where so many voices are being raised today against bishops and priests, and well, that's it
01:24What can I tell you about the Pope, right? Poor Pope Francis, they're all over him. So, well, let's begin.
01:30saying that in Paul's thinking he conceives of a hierarchical church where everyone, as we saw it,
01:40In the previous topic of love and charisms we are part of a body but this body there is
01:49which is to understand it as a body that has different functions and different ministries
01:55And that is why it is clear in the letter to the Galatians, and we find this interesting text from Galatians 2:9
02:02where Santiago, Pedro, and Juan, who were considered the pillars of the church, because when the
02:13Paul's conversion: Paul goes to Jerusalem and speaks with James, Peter, and John, saying that they were
02:22considered the great pillars of the church, that is, if there are levels, if there are hierarchies, always
02:28What has existed is not an invention of our modern church; they have always been there, they are clearly there.
02:34Well, as seen in the sacred scriptures, we see that there is a true structure, a function
02:41organized that should be considered as a service to the church itself, starting with Peter, that is, with
02:49From there, the Holy Father creates the entire organization, a whole structure through which the
02:57The apostle compares it to the church and speaks of it as a structure in Ephesians 2:20, saying the following
03:07You are like a building erected on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, and
03:17Jesus Christ himself is the cornerstone, that is, he is a body that must have a head, and that head is the
03:26which commands through the brain all the members so that, ordered among themselves, we may all cooperate for the good
03:36common of the body, the same here we could imagine what would have happened if Jesus had not put a head
03:44Having someone give order to the body would have been a disaster, just like the church of the separated brethren is today.
03:57that are separate from the head where each member ends up thinking because what it may seem to him is not true
04:05He gains followers and another sect is born, little by little, and that doesn't mean Jesus, with that wisdom, is any different.
04:16Infinita told Pedro that the head would be the quefa is the head
04:22In Matthew, that text is fundamental: Matthew 16:18 and Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon son of John.”
04:36For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven.
04:44And I also tell you that you are Peter, just as I have told you that I am the Messiah, I say that you are Peter.
04:51And on this rock, on this foundation, I will build my church.
04:56and the gates of hell will not prevail against them
05:00I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be yours.
05:05What you loose will be bound in heaven, and what you loose on earth will be bound in heaven.
05:09He will be released in the heavens, and this sign will be giving him the keys.
05:14In other words, give the power to whoever has the key to your house; they have the power.
05:18He comes and goes as he pleases; he has the power
05:21Well, that's the symbol of the keys.
05:23He has the power to bind and loose.
05:28If whatever you bind will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose will be loosed.
05:34In other words, he has this power; the Lord gave it to him.
05:38Why? To build unity
05:41so that the apostles who were that small community
05:44and those disciples who were already beginning to follow this community as well
05:48They understood that there was a head, there was a Cephas
05:51The word Kefa means head or large rock.
05:57a stone on which it is built
05:59If we want to talk about the rock on which the building stands
06:04the text we just read by Pablo
06:05Or if we want to talk about the body, then we also talk about Kefa.
06:10which is the head
06:11That's where the word headache comes in when you have a headache
06:15It's the head that rules
06:18With this beautiful text we must recognize
06:23because the Latin text does not do complete justice to the Greek text.
06:29Well, although the word Pedro comes from the Latin word for stone or rock
06:36It can be either one
06:37The Greek text refers to him as Kefa
06:42Kefa
06:45That's why in several texts, especially in Paul
06:49They are talking about Kefas, that is, Peter.
06:52which is the head
06:55It's the stone, but it's also the head; it depends on what we're talking about.
06:59And this is fundamental to our interpretation.
07:02Thus, the church is not only founded and sustained by Peter
07:09but in him, in the head, in the Kefa
07:14It is the head who carries out the order of the functions of the Lord's church
07:18just as our head sends signals to all the organs
07:24so that they function synchronously and in an orderly manner
07:28in the Gospel of John
07:30following an ecclesiology different from that of Paul
07:34It also ends up giving it this driving function
07:38the final part
07:40the final epilogue of Saint John
07:43It tells us in John 21:15-17
07:47finishing breakfast
07:49Jesus asked Simon Peter
07:53Simon, son of John
07:54You love me more than these
07:55Pedro answered him
07:57yes sir
07:58You know I love you
07:59Jesus said to him
08:00take care of my lambs
08:03Simon, son of John
08:07do you love me
08:08Pedro answered him
08:10yes sir
08:11You know I love you
08:13Jesus said to him
08:15take care of my sheep
08:18For the third time he asked
08:22Simon, son of John
08:24Do you love me?
08:27Pedro
08:29Pedro
08:29She became sad.
08:31because he
08:32because I had asked him
08:33for the third time
08:34if he wanted it
08:35and he answered
08:37Sir
08:38You know everything
08:40You know very well
08:42that I love you
08:43Jesus said to him
08:46take care
08:48of my sheep
08:50I mean
08:51the pastoral function
08:53address
08:54driving
08:55It is a different theology
08:59It is a pastoral theology
09:00who is not Pablo
09:02Paul was not a pastor
09:02Therefore, Pablo
09:05together with the whole church
09:07the nascent church
09:09well
09:10recognizes Pedro
09:11like the head
09:13the church's greed
09:14and he's going to look for him
09:16to be
09:17in perfect communion
09:19with the
09:19Yeah
09:20I mean
09:21we read it
09:22Galatians 1:18
09:23so
09:24three years later
09:25their conversion
09:26I went up to Jerusalem
09:28to meet Pedro
09:29and I was with him
09:3015 days
09:31OK
09:32It is therefore clear
09:34that in the
09:35in spirituality
09:36by Pablo
09:37Pedro
09:38represents
09:39really
09:40at the head
09:41visible
09:42of the church
09:42and with that
09:44respect the texts
09:46of the gospel
09:46in which Jesus
09:48appointed as pastor
09:49of his church
09:50to Pedro
09:51Saint John
09:52or as the foundation
09:55in Matthew
09:56to Pedro
09:58and today
09:59designates
10:00to your representative
10:02His Holiness
10:03Pope Francis
10:04we cannot
10:05to make mistakes
10:06and we always have
10:07to recognize the following
10:08Where is Pedro?
10:11There's the church
10:13There's the church
10:15apart from that
10:16there is nothing
10:16headless
10:19we are one body
10:20beheaded
10:21and a body
10:22beheaded
10:22not working
10:24we cannot
10:25to synchronize
10:26never
10:26That's why
10:28We defend the Pope
10:30We defend the church
10:31founded by Christ
10:32can
10:33probably
10:33not being
10:34totally agree
10:35with the
10:35in some things
10:36Well, I don't agree.
10:39with some things
10:39of writing
10:40and then
10:42Well, they affect me.
10:43They make me change
10:44They make me reflect.
10:45They are uncomfortable
10:49well too
10:49many things
10:50What does the Pope say?
10:50They are uncomfortable
10:51many things
10:52What does the Pope say?
10:54They remind us of Jesus Christ
10:55that bothered him
10:56to the Pharisees
10:57It tells us about poverty.
10:59that we wouldn't want
11:00being poor
11:01That is, when Jesus says
11:02blessed
11:03the poor
11:04He says no sir
11:05You're wrong
11:05blessed
11:07the rich
11:07In other words, we can
11:10disagree
11:11but finally
11:13that is
11:13and around
11:14We need to align ourselves
11:15Whether we like it or not
11:17if we want to be a church
11:18if we want to say
11:19that we belong
11:20to the church of Christ
11:21We need to align ourselves
11:23to the Pope
11:24just as we aligned
11:26to the holy scripture
11:27I mean
11:29Well, as I was saying
11:30because I wanted
11:32to stop for a little while
11:33on this topic
11:33because
11:35Well, there's a big attack.
11:37against priests
11:38and bishops
11:39and against the pope himself
11:40certainly
11:41not without reason
11:43in many cases
11:44TRUE
11:44voices are raised
11:45where
11:46because they go against it
11:48of many priests
11:49even bishops
11:51that have given
11:52Well, obviously
11:53bad testimony
11:54We cannot change it
11:55We cannot hide the sun
11:57with one finger
11:57how do you say
11:58They have given a bad example
12:00of Christian life
12:01even
12:02above all
12:03in other times
12:05some popes
12:05They did too
12:06however
12:08we must remember
12:09that the promise
12:10of Christ
12:11the thing is
12:11the powers
12:12of evil
12:13will not prevail
12:14in it
12:14all human beings
12:17We are weak beings
12:18and we are exposed
12:20to temptations
12:21and therefore
12:22well
12:23the devil takes advantage
12:24of this weakness
12:25Well, a few more.
12:27of others less
12:28the enemy
12:30the enemy of Christ
12:30and of the church
12:31has searched
12:32spoil
12:33the image
12:34of so many
12:36good
12:36and holy priests
12:37bishops
12:38and of supreme pontiffs
12:40to create
12:41slander
12:43and the division
12:44among us
12:44but it is an action
12:46of the devil
12:46It is an action
12:47to divide
12:48determine
12:48with the work of God
12:50We have to help
12:52to that unit
12:52Let us remember
12:54that one of the enemies
12:55fundamentals
12:56of Satan
12:57is the unit
12:58it's the truth
13:00Therefore
13:02seeks
13:02to become enemies
13:04and break
13:05the ties
13:06of unit
13:06of obedience
13:07of fraternity
13:08we must have
13:10very clear
13:11that while
13:12a bishop
13:13or a priest
13:14or the Pope himself
13:15Don't invite us
13:17to sin
13:17We will have to obey them
13:19and in question
13:22of his government
13:23because of his judgments
13:24and decisions
13:25that do not involve
13:27faith
13:27and the doctrine
13:28well they can be
13:29questioned
13:30and we can
13:33on this
13:33well remember
13:34what it tells us
13:35the same gentleman
13:36we read
13:37Matthew 23
13:3823
13:38Look at what it says
13:39says
13:41the teachers
13:42of the law
13:43we would talk today
13:44of priests
13:45and bishops
13:46the teachers
13:47of the law
13:48and the Pharisees
13:50they teach
13:51with the authority
13:52coming
13:53of Moses
13:53therefore
13:55obey them
13:56you
13:57and do
13:57all that
13:58they tell them
13:59But don't imitate them.
14:01they do not broadcast
14:01their example
14:02because they
14:03They say things
14:04that they don't do
14:06finally
14:07they end up doing
14:08Well, that's something else.
14:10if we know
14:12of one
14:13from our pastors
14:14which is being
14:16for tempted
14:17or that does not give
14:18good testimony
14:19Let us pray for him
14:21Let's not imitate him
14:23and let's look
14:25the form
14:26to help him
14:27to help him
14:28to return
14:29to the truth
14:29to the word
14:30of God
14:31and let's have
14:33always
14:33as
14:34rule of life
14:36the holy scripture
14:38And as I have said
14:39so many times
14:40the teaching profession
14:41of the church
14:41I mean
14:43in this way
14:43we will always be
14:45at peace
14:45and we will walk
14:47along the way
14:48because of holiness
14:49in communion
14:51with our pastors
14:52in communion
14:54with our pastors
14:55no one is exempt
14:59of making mistakes
14:59of committing sins
15:01nor the popes
15:02nor the bishops
15:03nor the priests
15:03however
15:05at least
15:08in what is available
15:09the story
15:09of the church
15:10because we don't have
15:11no chapter
15:13of history
15:13of the church
15:14where the popes
15:15have gone
15:15against
15:16of the doctrine
15:17have led
15:18dissolute lives
15:19have led
15:19bad lives
15:20Yeah
15:20but also
15:22between how many
15:23together
15:24we can find
15:25some
15:26but the others
15:27They are saints
15:28Perhaps not all
15:29canonical
15:30but to us
15:31Thank God
15:32in recent times
15:33It's our turn
15:34Saint John 23
15:36which followed
15:38Saint Paul VI
15:40the one who followed
15:41Saint John Paul II
15:43and well then
15:45to Saint John Paul
15:47continued
15:48the emeritus pope
15:49Benedict XVI
15:50I'm sure
15:51very safe
15:52which also
15:53it will be then
15:54guest
15:54to be part
15:55of this process
15:56of canonization
15:57and Francis
15:58that with
15:59yet
16:00what is said
16:01his
16:01He is a man
16:02very holy
16:03He is a man
16:04very sensitive
16:05He is a man
16:06faithful to the Lord
16:07He is a man
16:07who loves
16:08as perhaps
16:09none of us
16:10Love Christ
16:11and loves His Gospel
16:12Let's not speak ill of each other.
16:14his
16:14nor of the priests
16:16nor of the people
16:17that guides us
16:19if they commit a sin
16:21says
16:21talk to them
16:23and try to correct them
16:24Pray for them
16:25finally
16:26Don't imitate that
16:28that is not of the Lord
16:29but look
16:30that your pastors
16:32can truly be
16:33guides of their flock
16:34good
16:35Well, with this
16:36We've reached the end
16:37of this chapter
16:38See you in our next one!
16:40chapter
16:40to continue
16:41Following in Pablo's footsteps
16:43Until next time
