Pope at Audience: Against the devil’s deception, Jesus protects us

  Saint Peter's Square, Vatican City

Dear brothers and sisters, good morning!

Immediately after His baptism in the Jordan, Jesus “was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil” (Mt 4:1) – this is what the Gospel of Matthew says. The initiative is not Satan’s, but God’s. Going into the wilderness, Jesus obeys an inspiration of the Holy Spirit; He does not fall into an enemy snare, no, no! … Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Ħadd ma jixgħel musbieħ u jgħattih b’għatu jew iqiegħdu taħt sodda” (Lq 8:16). Dan hu l-kliem li jgħid Ġesù llum fl-Evanġelju skont San Luqa, u jgħidu lill-folla.
