It is the emblem of the worst sloppiness of contemporary visible Church: the reduced cross-dress to hang, before jubilant chorus of people who do not even enter our churches for Christmas and for Easter, but applaud revelers before our self-destruction, while the poor bride of Christ is drowning, not in the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, He is drowning in ridicule, the grotesque of sloppiness, no one cares to throw even a miserable lifeline, perhaps because guilty of not being Muslim, so that it can also easily drown, under the applause of a world that hates more and more all that is truly and authentically Christian.

The boy is born, Alleluia !

For centuries, on the cross, the only thing that the Christian tradition has hung, it was only the shroud of Christ God

The light shines in the darkness. The light shines in the darkness, is the light of the Incarnate Word narrated in the poetics of this monumental prologue to the Gospel of John [see text of the Liturgy of the Word, WHO]. We are wishing we could add: The light shines in darkness, especially in this world of ours in which we must be animated by the Christian and active hope, while we are subjected to the greatest, difficult and fearsome of all tests: the great test of faith.

.

For several years we viewers silent and powerless protagonists of radical changes generated by a condition of great crisis that invests worldwide morals, ethics, politics, the economy, the ecclesiastical and ecclesial communities of the moral and ethical crisis is likely to be a paradigm. And in this situation of crisis and decay, we should welcome the light that breaks into the darkness through the incarnation of God's Word, welcome it as our principle and ultimate end.

.

The Word has been announced in times of pain by words, love and hope of the prophets; by the voice of John the Baptist, the dawn of His intervention in human history raised his voice from the wilderness to break the human spirit deserts. The Word is living and enduring word, but it is also silent, because in our worldly noise that devours everything indifference to better swallow us in the Great Nothing, the Word is silent to the extent that man does not grant her eternal love no room to dwell among us, even a makeshift hotel; even a manger in which lie inside a barn.

.

To prove the Word It needs that sweet spot that is silence, in order to manifest and communicate to the man who is the object of his love and loved his subject.

.

The ancient Israelites They were so intimidated by the Hebrew tetragrammaton which composed the name of God, that no one should dare to pronounce it, only the Kohen Gadol, the High Priest, closed in Holy of Holies the Temple of Jerusalem, head bowed his head covered, after long purified pronounced it softly once a year for Yom Kippur, For the great day of atonement.

.

We learn to regard Christmas as the ineffable name of God, because during this festival the Word of God incarnate in a man and comes to live among us in the person of Jesus of Nazareth, opening our horizons to the mystery of the true God and true man. So Let us flee from the great curse of Christmas profaned, the Word emptied and filled with another, in a proliferation of cribs constructed by Supreme Politically Correct on barges and rescue donuts, with the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Blessed Patriarch Joseph put on a lifebelt. Riappropriamoci the Mystery of Christmas, as the irruption of God in the flesh in human history, through this Jesus whom we adore in the manger in Bethlehem where all of humanity has been reborn and is called to be reborn, to reach its peak with the torn stone of the empty tomb of Christ, by which all mankind is resurrected and is called to rise again. Let us adore the Eucharist, his memorial holy and living, gift of his real presence among us, our support and our food of eternal life. Let us adore, because he alone is the beginning, the Centre and the ultimate goal of our entire humanism. Only then can we open the doors of the heart to express in a relevant and coherent: Merry Christmas ... Christmas of God who became like us to invite us to make us like Him, in Him and for Him.

.

In moments of silence of this sacred liturgy, prostrating during the Eucharistic Prayer on the words of the Last Supper that will make the bread and wine the body and blood of Christ alive, we try to grasp the mystery and intimate become Parties, aware that silent incarnates the Word and silence the Word speaks. Prostrate on the ground with knees, because "in the name of Jesus every knee should bow" [Fil 2, 10]. We do not mourn as those before the Body and Blood of Christ alive have hip problems, but it works wonders to kneel with athletic shooting before the new "truth of faith", or the new "dogma of the migrant" to which rinse your feet before the regime journalists who applaud the "new church" of the "epoch-making revolution", imprinted on the "mercy" which grants the grace of the guillotine to anyone who dares to utter a legitimate, respectful and quiet sigh of disapproval of everything that can be objectively wrong and misleading.

.

The Jesus of history, that with Christmas enters our human experience in the flesh, it is not even a tender symbol to use and human and commercial consumption of different traditions or family, is the supreme mystery of God made man in Jesus through the mystery begins his earthly path laid in the manger in a stable and laid terminating it on the wood of a cross, to explode shortly after as the Christ of faith spilling the stone from the tomb, making us all by vocation in his resurrection.

.

To this we are called through the Christian experience: to incarnate, to live, to die and rise again in Christ, for God has come to be like us so that we, projected in the mystery of His grace, There we did like him.

.

This is the deposit of our faith, the rest is just modern paganism, new idolatry targeted at will and please the world's increasingly anti-Christ-to which we should try in every way not to please. And we, called to serve and assist the people of God as priests, we have to fight both the new paganism is the world increasingly anti-Christic, bringing in a loving and decided the true ad through the gospel ministry true, which is certainly not the neurotic-obsessive ministry today poor or refugee real or perceived, but Christological reality of life lived. We can not postpone, nor worse justify certain deviations as expressions of faith, indeed we are supposed to call them by their real name: poison the faith.

.

In any page of the Gospel is it written that you have to please the whims and vices of the world, or worse remain silent on the serious sins, because the Word of God became incarnate to become a sacrificial lamb then washing with the blood of his sacrifice on the cross the sin of the world, but especially after having notified:

.

"If the world hates you, ye know that it hated me before you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you " [GV 15, 18-19].

.

What terrible judgment and deserved punishment, many of us pastors in charge of souls will receive from the Divine Judge, to have left in the meal paganites the people that God has entrusted to us, to be gone hand in hand with Démoni, to have invited and welcomed the wolf into the sheepfold and beaten at the same time the sheep who dared shout: "Beware of the Wolf!». Because even in this we were advised:

.

"Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter
the sheep of my pasture!!», says the Lord.
Therefore thus speaks the Lord, God of Israel,
concerning the shepherds who feed my people:
"You have scattered my flock, and you are driven them away,
and you have not visited them care;
there, I will punish, for the evil of your doings »,
says the Lord.
"I will gather the remnant of my flock
from all countries whither I have driven,
I will bring them back to their folds,
they shall be fruitful and multiply.
I will set up over them shepherds who shall feed the flock,
and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed,
I shall not lack any ", says the Lord [Gives 23, 1-4].

.

It's still:

.

"Prophet and priest are profane,
in my house I have found their wickedness ",
says the Lord .
"Therefore their way shall be to them as slippery places in the darkness;
they shall be driven and fall;
for I will bring upon them a calamity,
the year of their visitation ", says the Lord [Gives 23, 11-12].

.

All it sealed by the words of Christ that God warns:

.

"To whom much is given, much will be asked for; to whom men have committed much, It will ask the more " [LC 12, 48].

.

Needless to remember, although the face: us his priests, God has entrusted what was most precious: He has entrusted us to care, custody and pastoral care of his flock, His Holy People.

.

The Gospel of the Blessed Luca Evangelista proclaimed a few days ago at the Mass of the Holy Night, recounts in a few words with the event of the birth the way chosen by God to be the Jesus of history. Following the words of this passage we could speak of the divine modesty of God that comes to light and which manifests itself to men who were waiting for the Messiah, the Saviour, almost as if he wanted to hide in the very act in which manifested itself. It is an aspect that leads us to reflect on the increasingly open challenges of his divine intentions, of his divine pedagogy.

.

Perhaps the Lord, in front of his visible revelation, physical body and, He wanted to invite people to not feel exempt from having to search for it, like the shepherds who come, like the Magi who follow the light of a star come to bring precious gifts, without any fear of offending the future “Idolatry of the poor”. Perhaps, the Sir, the Savior born in a stable, He wanted this our pursuit of his eternal being and his becoming among us, We oblige us to bend our self-centeredness on the way of humility, which it is certainly not a neck twisted pose, but the true dignity of being true Christians.

.

To contemplate the humility of God Incarnate lying in bands inside the manger in a stable is an invitation to penetrate the true and profound sense of Christian virtue which is the authentic humility, Our road to fix the main obstacle that stands in the way to our true encounter with Christ the Savior: pride that keeps us from a relationship with him and a relationship with others. And pride can be cured only by starting from the divine humility of the baby Jesus in the stable in Bethlehem, to follow him along the Via Dolorosa to Golgotha, Finally rise with the Christ of faith that made him say in Sao Paulo: "It is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me" [Gal 2, 20].

.

God is born hidden and sometimes hides so that man can look through the free and liberating instinct to love that when it is perfect casts out all fear, as he taught by the Blessed John the Apostle in another passage of his Gospel [CF. GV 4, 18]. Because God never hides behind the great things that so often fascinate us, but behind the small details that often leave us totally indifferent; God do not find it and not meet him, in what the world like, but in all that the world hates and rejects.

.

The way in which we can seek and find God hidden in a barn, reminds one of the greatest converts in the history, that with his experience he invites us all to conversion. This teacher is Aurelio Thagaste, better known as St. Augustine Bishop of Hippo, who later became a saint and Doctor of the Church: «Love petitur, love quaèritur, love pulsàtur, love revelàtur"With love wonders, with love trying, with love knocks, with love is revealed.

.

Only in this way we can get into real stable in Bethlehem, which it is the stable of the faith and the divine mystery; then understand something of Christmas; for living Christmas in faith in Jesus Christ our God, Lord and Savior. The rest - as he said back in the sixteenth century the great teacher of St. Philip Blacks taking inspiration from the Book of Ecclesiastes - it's just vanity, nothing but vanity of vanities [cf. q 1,2]. And today, this terrible worldly vanity that aims to please the World, emptied the mystery of the Word of God made man, to fill it with another: of Boat Migrants, rescue donuts, or life jackets attached to the cross of Christ. It is the emblem of the worst sloppiness of contemporary visible Church: the reduced cross-dress to hang, before jubilant chorus of people who do not even enter our churches for Christmas and for Easter, but applaud revelers to our self-destruction, while the poor bride of Christ is drowning, not in the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, He is drowning in ridicule, the grotesque of sloppiness, no one cares to throw even a miserable lifeline, perhaps because guilty of not being Muslim, so that it can also easily drown, under the applause of a world that hates more and more all that is truly and authentically Christian. And we, unworthy priests, Today we are genuflecting to the world as miserable prostitutes before the customer, of this we are drowning makers. And what we will have to give an account to the Word of God that severe remind us:

.

"To whom much is given, much will be asked for; to whom men have committed much, It will ask the more " [LC 12, 48].

.

The man made, alleluia!

    Dearest father Ariel,

    nel suo blog non trovo nessun commento in merito dell’attacco di Saviano alla madonna blasfemo e diabolico ho pensato che forse non è al corrente e non sa, vedendo che anche le persone che le scrivono tacciono e si preoccupano dell’otto per mille. Ma vedendo la sua reazione descritta nel diverbio con dei ragazzi ho pensato ma carattere forte. poi ripensando a mente fredda ma un prete che non interviene su questa blasfemia non ama la vergine santissima, ma spende una pagina per raccontare stupidaggini, le rammento che lei è in ritardo di 5 giorni sull’accaduto di questa blasfemia nei confronti della Vergine Maria, ma per il figlio sono come mille anni.

    ps, le ricordo che il purgatorio c’è anche per i preti e il giudizio sarà più duro, la mia preghiera di riparazione i 4 misteri del rosario al giorno
    regards

      e io dovrei rispondere a una persona che anziché rivolgere domande mi lancia una serie di accuse, decretando anzitutto che non amo la Vergine Maria e che spendo al tempo stessouna pagina per raccontare stupidaggini”?
      Vuole forse dirmi lei che cosa devo pensare, cosa devo scrivere, come devo pensare e come devo scrivere?

      La ringrazio anche per avermi ricordato cheesiste il Purgatorio”, stia però certo che questa graziaossia il Purgatoriome la concederà Dio e non certo lei. Infatti prego tutti i giorni per questa grazia, non avendo mai avuta la presunzione di pensare solo per scherzo di potermi meritare il Paradiso dopo la morte, sono infatti pochissime a questo mondo le anime che giungono subito nel Paradiso e purtroppo, tra queste, non ci sarà la mia.

      Sebbene di recente un prete tragicomico fuori da ogni cattolico e umano equilibrio abbia aggredito il povero Roberto Saviano con parole durissime pronunciate in un suo video, dopo avere da tempo mutata la Madonna in un feticcio, in un idolo, al di la di ogni corretta teologia mariologica, io che invece considero e venero cattolicamente la Vergine Maria come la Immacolata concezione e la Mater Dei, sono perfettamente in grado di distinguere ladiabolica blasfemiadalla pura e semplice ignoranza.

      Roberto Saviano è una persona ignorante, that means: ignora i basilari fondamenti della fede cattolica.
      Nelle sue espressioni, non ha inteso bestemmiare la Madonna, anzi era convinto di rendere, come laico, un omaggio al Natale e alla Natività, era convinto di dire cose persino affettuose.

      Quindi non posso accusare di bestemmia e di blasfemia chi non aveva affatto simili intenzioni. Mentre invece posso accusare di bestemmia e di blasfemia quel certo prete squilibrato che tutti i giorni ribadisce che i sacerdoti del mondo intero, che celebranoin comunione con il falso papa emissario dell’Anticristo”, celebrate invalid Masses, rather “Messe sataniche”.
      Quella è gravissima bestemmia e blasfemia, non le espressioni di Roberto Saviano frutto di pura, semplice e inconsapevole ignoranza sulle materie della dottrina della fede.

      I conclude: once, the faithfuls, dopo la Santa Messa venivano a baciarci le mani, now, gli pseudo-fedeli, tipo lei, ci prendono a calci nel culo; e più ci mollano calci nel culo, più si sentono veri e puri cattolici.

      Un cattolico che fosse veramente cattolicocosa che lei dimostra di non essere affattonon si rivolgerebbe mai ad un minister in sacred nei suoi toni, dando dei giudizi severi e delle sentenze altrettanto severe che non stanno né in cielo né in terra. tell him, al suoSantone”, che i preti non sono così stupidi da non riconoscere all’istante i suoi settaristi sguinzagliati per la rete ed ai quali egli stesso mette in bocca certe cose istigandoli a fare azioni di disturbo e di offesa gratuita come questa sua.

    lei dice : “No, those of Concilium magazine publishing such things, They do not deserve so much, Therefore, I can only say:” «..mo, we just needed to do that if they put pure 'teologgia der bucio Job!»”
    I remind you that it was founded by prominent theologians who participated in Vatican Council 2 ,https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concilium ,

      At the council they were also attended by people who then falls in the most severe heresies, come Hans Kung, or who have left the Catholic priesthood, as the ordinary abbot of the then Prelature of St. Paul Outside the Walls, Dom Giovanni Franzoni. He attended the Bishop Marcel Lefebvre, who rejected some of its documents and its doctrines, etc …
      Having participated in a council, the last as all the other winds, does not confer license sanctity and theological orthodoxy to each individual participant.

      She challenges me, she causes me, She pulls me just the bad words out of his mouth.
      And this is not good. No, It is not good that a priest say bad words, it is unseemly, as well as bad example.
      But, There are times when certain individuals do not deserve another. Or should I react to what I sent rifacendomi Aquinas, or the moral theology of Saint Alphonsus Maria de’ Liguori … ?
      No, those of Concilium magazine publishing such things, They do not deserve so much, Therefore, I can only say: «..mo, It just needed to do that if they put pure’ teologgia der bucio in the ass!»

    Dear father Ariel,

    I'm a big admirer.
    A few days ago we true Christians have celebrated the last Sunday of Advent. The world seems instead to wait more each year the advent of the devil. By now it's all fallen: values, morale… the words of our Lord.
    The church that instead of always condemning and still the decadence of this society, open to any wickedness that the devil suggested in the hearts of men.
    I look forward to the coming of Christ on earth with his angels to put an end to this dark world.
    Does that seem fair that a right to hear a priest of Christ I should connect the island of Patmos and not within my church community?
    They are all diverted. They have corrupted the heart!
    Unfortunately his words, beautiful and in full harmony with Jesus are nothing but a dim light, and soon the dark world with its darkness. man, aspects that bring order?

    Dear father Ariel,
    I read on stilum curiae of the new act of homage to the Pachamama took place in the Sala Nervi Christmas Eve. Now it seems to be in gloomy weather “cultural” Seventies with ideological conformism dell'eskimo that had pervaded the editors of all the major newspapers, the school, every social sphere. Then, as now those who disagreed was shot in the legs or worse and I was reminded of an episode of one of the movies where there Fantozzi after the umpteenth screening of Battleship Potemkin dares to say the unsayable: “The Battleship Potemkin is a crazy shit” there, They do not need learned discussions, they only needed Fantozzi any today who, as well as having the courage to say something sensible, He said also: go fuck all! Too bad that 80% of recipients invective would take it as best wishes.

    Holy Christmas to all.
    Great beautiful meditation, truly.
    As so-called priest “normal” (that defines me people, I have my doubts!), I deal daily with the increasingly strong discomfort of the people especially in the Christmas period has had enough of cribs that are all of a display of refugees, migrants, donuts, boats, lifebelt …
    I doubt that Jesus Christ was very white, blond, blue eyes, for charity, definitely it was not what his features, even though it was “the fairest of the sons”, but it was still a Palestinian, not a Swede. But I doubt he'd even though the current featured black women, or it was an African as they are now largely cribs.

    Visiting one of our churches yet another crib with the inevitable black baby Jesus with Madonna so typically Senegalese or Nigerian, an elderly Neapolitan told me … “because in the crib put the background of You come down from the stars? Mistaken! In the background they were to bring the folk song … Tammurriata black“.

    Always the same refrain,?
    But because she loves them so much because Bergoglio does not go to stay in Africa it will sell the palace of London and the hotels and properties, It would feed millions and so do not need to migrate.
    But immigration is a business both for the merchants of men to NGOs and neochiesa that takes advantage of making money grants the Interior Ministry for the reception along with coop, but the goal is the destruction of Christian civilization, ethnic replacement advancing relentlessly.

    We faithful poor who do not recognize ourselves in this church we have two ways to try to counter the drift: prayer and leverage. Personally few years towards more 8 per thousand to the Catholic Church (but you have to specify another destination on the form otherwise the sum is redistributed) nor I support the missions after the head, first through Scalfari, then with the recent acts of idolatry, He has indicated that it is the new model of “evangelization”.
