April 29, 2018 Fifth Sunday of Easter In today’s scripture readings, we hear the teachings of Jesus Christ from Paul (Saul) and John. Paul went out throughout the land and preached the message to all who would listen. When one group, the Hellenists, tried to kill him other disciples quickly sent him to Tarsus. Paul, was so convincing about his faith that “with the consolation of the Holy Spirit it (Christianity) grew in numbers” and all people lived in peace. John’s letter proclaims “let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth.” What the mind knows so shall the heart. He told the people to “love one another just as he (Jesus) commanded us.” Today’s Gospel from John tells of Jesus using vines and branches to illustrate the strength of his existence. Jesus is the vine and all followers are the branches. The vine is strong and provides sustenance to the branches in the same way that Jesus offers nourishment through the Word of God and suggested actions such as the Sacraments. Just as the vine withers if it is not fed with water and nutrients, we will “wither” in spirit and voice and succumb to the will of the devil. A healthy vine bears fruit but a withered vine is good only for fuel. Although fuel is important, the role of a vine and braches is to offer physical John further tells us
that if we remain in God, God will remain in us. ***************************************************************************** ustenanEn las lecturas bíblicas de hoy, escuchamos las enseñanzas de Jesús Cristo de Pablo (Saulo) y John. Pablo fue a lo largo de la tierra y predicaron el mensaje a todos los que desean escuchar. Cuando un grupo, los helenistas, trataron de matarlo rápidamente otros discípulos le envió a Tarso. Pablo, fue tan convincente sobre su fe en que "con el consuelo del Espíritu Santo (El Cristianismo) creció en números" y todas las personas vivían en paz. Carta de Juan proclama "no amemos de palabra o discurso, sino en los hechos y de la verdad." Lo que la mente lo sabe el corazón. Él le dijo a su gente que "amaos los unos a los otros como él (Jesús) nos ha mandado." El Evangelio de hoy de Juan nos dice Jesús a través de las viñas y las ramas para ilustrar la fuerza de su existencia. Jesús es la vid y todos los seguidores son las ramas. La vid es fuerte y un medio de sustento de las sucursales de la misma manera que Jesús ofrece alimento a través de la Palabra de Dios y las acciones sugeridas como los Sacramentos. Al igual que la vid se apaga si no se alimenta con agua y nutrientes, se "diluye" en el espíritu y la voz y sucumbir a la voluntad del diablo. Un buen vid da fruto pero seca una vid es bueno sólo para combustible. Pero el combustible es importante, el papel de una vid y dependencias de
ofrecer sustento físico. .John más nos dice que si permanecemos en
