(Heb. 2:1) “Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away,” says the holy Apostle Paul (Heb. 2:1).

Luke 8:5-15 We have the parable of the sower and the seed before us. It is easy to understand and, lest there be no doubts and misunderstandings, the Lord even provided us with an explanation. “A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside, and it was ...
(2 Tim. 3:12) We often wonder where God’s justice is, since human justice is clearly missing in the world.

Luke 5:1-11 “Without Me you can do nothing,” (John 15:5) says our Lord. “The Lord never spoke in hyperboles. No words have ever been spoken with a greater measure than His.

(1 Cor. 16 : 13 – 24) We heard the words that the holy Apostle Paul addressed to the Christians in Corinth. The Apostle exhorts his brethren, since they knew about Stephanas and his household that he was one of the best among them, to acknowledge him as such and to submit to him. Not ...
(1 Cor. 15 : 1 – 11) In chapter 15 of his first epistle to the Corinthians the holy Apostle Paul puts his apostolic and priestly calling to the test before the Christians of Corinth. The criteria that St. Paul set then as a basis for priesthood is still valid today. The grace of God ...
(1 Cor. 3 : 9–17) “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple are you,” says St. Paul. (1 Cor. 3:16-17). And to cast ...
Through the parable of unforgiving servant (Matthew 18:23-35) our Lord Jesus Christ commands us to forgive in order to be forgiven.

Matthew 14:14:22 We live in dire and difficult times. The uncertainty and insecurity of day-to-day living is great and no one can be impartial to this. Few among us can say that they are secure and that the crisis has no impact on them. In my everyday contact with people I can tell that this ...
