Father Csaba’s reflection on the gospel Monday 4 June 2018
I regard my own and the Church’s most important task as the propagation, teaching of Jesus Christ’s Deity and the revelation of the Holy Trinity by Him , because every other truth is based on this ! I believe and profess , that God who addressed Abraham , lead him and his family out from his homeland , is the same one who also addressed Moses in the burning bush , and who gave the whole of mankind the ten commandments ! I believe that Isaiah , Jeremiah and the rest of the prophets were also addressed by the same God and lead them through their conscience , who on Christmas eve became man , became incarnate , came among us to teach, redeem , to lead us to eternal life ! I believe that Christ’s teaching is true , that God is not a solitary, isolated entity enclosed in infinite perfectness who cannot be reached but in a Community of Love, the Holy Trinity ! The Father, Son and the Holy Spirit can not only be addressed , but They are also capable of addressing us and through our conscience with tender love, merciful patience to lead us !! The indivisible three person of the one God love each other not only inwardly with infinite intensity but outwardly as well, us people , the whole created world , as Himself !
Jesus taught in such a way at the last supper : “9 “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.
11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.” John 15, 9-11
I believe and profess , that even though we were born from a fistful of dust , we are not only capable in remaining in the love of God , but we can also reciprocate God’s burning love in our stumbling way ! In the ten commandments God is not asking the impossible , where He commands us : Worship your Lord, your God !
“ I am the way, the truth and the life !” The way of love revealed by Jesus Christ is one that is feasible for me , for me this is the most important Truth , and if someone remarks on it in reality and was on that , will experience it , that here in this world in reality this is Life !
With love,
Father Csaba

Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables. 'A man planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a pit for the wine press, and built a watch-tower; then he leased it to tenants and went to another country. When the season came, he sent a slave to the tenants to collect from them his share of the produce of the vineyard. But they seized him, and beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. And again he sent another slave to them; this one they beat over the head and insulted. Then he sent another, and that one they killed. And so it was with many others; some they beat, and others they killed. He had still one other, a beloved son. Finally he sent him to them, saying, "They will respect my son." But those tenants said to one another, "This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours." So they seized him, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants and give the vineyard to others. Have you not read this scripture:
"The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;
this was the Lord's doing,
and it is amazing in our eyes"?'
When they realized that he had told this parable against them, they wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowd. So they left him and went away.
Mr 12,1-12
