We know that only too well. The seven capital sins are not just fantasies. We readily embody them: anger and pride and greed and lust and gluttony and envy and laziness. Our spirits bear the mark of Cain. Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati Man of the Beatitudes It’s also true that we often want others to be what we ourselves cannot be, and so we look to the Church, except that the Church is us, and if we are sinful, so too is the Church. Our history as a community of believers says it all too clearly. We waged war with the Crusades. We reveled in the power of ruling over civil states. We became intolerant during the Inquisition. We were a storehouse of wealth. And most recently we were too proud to admit the sexual abuses taking place in our midst. If we are the dwelling place of God, a temple made of living stones, then we are also in need of being swept clean just as Jesus once cleansed the temple in his day. We come to recognize that need. The good news is that the Church is being swept clean, in every age, because sin slips through in every age. And so the Church, that living temple, is constantly being made new, painful as it may be. Born in 1901 in Turin, Italy into a family of wealth and status, Pier Giorgio enjoyed good friends, hiking and skiing, museums and music, and was involved in political action. He found that deep prayer, service to the poor, and a passion for bringing others to Christ led to a life of purpose, peace, and happiness. Pier Giorgio died at the age of 24 on July 4, 1925. He was beatified on May 20, 1990 by Pope John Paul II who referred to him as a "man of the beatitudes." CD’s are available in the Gathering Space for $3.00 each. It would be wonderful if the Church were all that the gospel professes. The fact that it is not may be disappointing, but God’s reign has not yet arrived—at least not fully. In the meantime, the Lord Jesus continues to cleanse us and renew us. And the marvel is that the river that flows from that temple of living stones is still bringing life to all it touches—in spite of our sinfulness. —Rev. Joseph J. Juknialis Copyright © 2012, World Library Publications. All rights reserved. THE TEMPLE AND WORSHIP Lect. 671: Ezekiel 47:1–2, 8–9, 12 / Psalm 46:2–3, 5–6, 8–9 / 1 Corinthians 3:9c–11, 16–17 / John 2:13–22 In all of today’s readings, the temple is prominently mentioned. Ezekiel speaks of streams of living water flowing out from the temple, watering the desert, bringing life to all living things, offering fresh healing to God’s people. Paul reminds the Corinthians that their faith rests upon the firmest of foundations, Christ himself. More than that, Paul reveals that those who follow Christ are themselves temples, temples of the Holy Spirit; that is, God dwells not only with them, but in them. For the Jews of Jesus’ time, the temple had come to be identified with the presence of God and the only place where authentic worship of God took place. Jesus had a different perception. Jesus identified himself not with the temple, but as the temple. In so doing, Jesus indicated a dramatic shift in what it means to worship God, to be in God’s presence. No longer was a place to be the focus of prayer. Instead, a person, the person of Jesus Christ, becomes the center of our worship. Living God’s Word Living with self-inflicted limitations is no easy task, personally or ecclesially. On the other hand, the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ renews the Church and helps us to build his kingdom as best we can. Copyright © 2012, World Library Publications. All rights reserved.

El templo de Dios es santo, ese templo sois vosotros. San Pablo conocía por propia experiencia las limitaciones y tendencias pecaminosas de su cuerpo, hasta el punto de que en alguna ocasión llegó a exclamar: ¡cuándo me libraré de este cuerpo mortal! Pero también conocía por propia experiencia que el espíritu que habitaba en él, el espíritu de Cristo, era santo, hasta tal punto que también en otra ocasión exclamó: no soy yo quien vive en mí, ¡es Cristo quien vive en mí! Pues también nosotros, cada uno de los cristianos, debemos ser conscientes de esta doble realidad: tenemos un cuerpo mortal, con tendencias carnales y muchas veces pecaminosas, pero también hemos sido revestidos del espíritu de Cristo y este espíritu es santo. Procuremos vivir dirigidos y gobernados por el espíritu, no por el cuerpo. “Las obras de la carne son conocidas: fornicación, impureza… odios, discordias, celos… divisiones, rencillas… y otras cosas semejantes; en cambio, el fruto del espíritu es amor, alegría, paz, paciencia, afabilidad, bondad, fidelidad, mansedumbre, dominio de sí… Si vivimos según el Espíritu, obremos también según el Espíritu” (Gal 5, 19, 25). Si vivimos conscientes de que somos templos de Dios, nos esforzaremos constantemente en vivir según el Espíritu de Cristo. 2.- Pero él hablaba del templo de su cuerpo. Ya sabemos que Juan ha clocado este relato de la purificación del templo al comienzo de su evangelio, en contra de los sinópticos que lo colocan al final. Y es que en los tiempos en los que Juan escribe su evangelio el templo de Jerusalén ya había sido destruido y a Juan le interesa dejar ya claro, desde el comienzo de su evangelio, que ya no es el templo material, como ocurría en el Antiguo Testamento, el centro de la fe de los creyentes. Tenemos un Nuevo Testamento y, para los cristianos, el verdadero templo de Dios es Cristo. El verdadero templo donde Dios habita ahora es en Cristo, no en templos materiales. A Dios debemos adorarlo en espíritu y en verdad, es decir, en el espíritu de Cristo. Los cristianos que viven en el espíritu de Cristo son también ellos mismos templos de Dios y Dios habita en ellos. Es lo que, siglos más tarde, se llamaría la inhabitación de la Santísima Trinidad en el alma cristiana que vive en comunión con Cristo. 3.- Dedicación de la Basílica de Letrán. Hoy, domingo, celebramos nuestras eucaristías con la liturgia propia de la fiesta de la dedicación de la Basílica de Letrán. Esta basílica fue la primera basílica cristiana (año 324) y es, actualmente, la catedral del Obispo de Roma, del Papa, y por eso en su frontis tiene esta inscripción: “Madre y Cabeza de todas las iglesias de la ciudad y del mundo”. La Iglesia Católica es una Iglesia universal y quiere que todas las iglesias particulares estén unidas en comunión con la iglesia de Roma y con su Obispo, con el Papa; Por eso, la liturgia de esta fiesta de la Dedicación de la Basílica de Letrán, cuya consagración celebramos en este día, es tan importante que prevalece sobre la liturgia del domingo correspondiente. Procuremos todos los cristianos vivir siempre en comunión con el Papa y pidamos fervorosamente, hoy especialmente, por la unidad de todas las iglesias cristianas. 4.- Virgen de la Almudena. En Madrid hoy celebramos la fiesta de la Virgen de la Almudena, nuestra Patrona. Se llama así porque la imagen de Santa María de la Almudena fue encontrada el año 1085, durante la conquista de la ciudad de Madrid, en uno de los torreones adosados a la muralla árabe, donde unos tres siglos antes había sido ocultada para ocultarla de los árabes. Es, pues, la Virgen de la muralla; hagamos nosotros de María una auténtica muralla que proteja nuestra fe y nos libre de tantos peligros como en estos tiempos nos acechan y pretenden derribarnos.
