Jesus said to his disciples: “I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven. You have heard that it was said to your ancestors, ‘You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment, and whoever says to his brother, ‘Raqa,’ will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ will be liable to the hell of fire… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Ħafna drabi nistaqsu għaliex Ġesù juża x-xbihat tal-melħ u tad-dawl biex jgħidilna min aħna. Donnu jrid jispjegalna li fil-ħajja tagħna rridu nħarsu lejn dawn ix-xbihat. Il-melħ huwa dak li jagħti t-togħma allura nitolbu li bix-xhieda tagħna, b’ħajjitna, bi kliemna u b’imġibitna nħallu togħma tajba.
Kultant nfakkru ’l xi ħadd li ħalliena u fi kliemna nirrealizaw kemm din il-persuna ħalliet togħma tajba… Read more »
Il‑kappillani tal‑Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta rriflettew fuq it‑tema ‘Knisja li tilqa’, Knisja inklussiva’, waqt il‑live‑in annwali. Huma ddiskutew kif bħala saċerdoti jista’ jkollhom attitudni pastorali li dejjem tilqa’ lill‑persuni ta’ madwarhom billi jkunu inklussivi fi kliemhom, fl‑atteġġjament tagħhom u fid‑deċiżjonijiet li jieħdu, kemm mal‑persuni li huma midħla tal‑Knisja u anke dawk li mhumiex. ‘Knisja li tilqa’ hi t‑tieni tema tad‑dokument ta’ tiġdid ekkleżjali tal‑Arċidjoċesi Knisja Waħda, Vjaġġ Wieħed.

Message by Archbishop Charles Jude Scicluna
I remember a few years ago, as you would certainly remember, Canon Simon, that on what must have been his last official visit to this pro-cathedral, Prince Philip was introduced to the congregation and we were introduced to him. As we bid farewell, he stopped near me and said, “Shall I tell you a secret? We are all Christians, you know,” and I replied, “Thank God for that.”
I think that is one of his comments that we can actually repeat without causing more trouble… Read more »
