 Words of the Holy Father-the true that is done-09-30-24

It is good for us to reflect on this episode and to perform a small examination of conscience. The disciples’ attitude is very human, very common, and we can observe this in Christian communities throughout history, probably in ourselves as well. In good faith, indeed with zeal, one would like to protect the authenticity of a certain experience, safeguarding the founder or leader from false impersonators. (…) God’s great freedom in giving himself to us represents a challenge and an exhortation to modify our behaviours and our relationships. (…) It is a matter of being more attentive to the authenticity of the good, the beautiful and the true that is done, rather than to the name and the origin of the one who does it. (Angelus, 30 September 2018)
