Pope at Angelus: It Doesn’t Matter Who You Know, to Get to Heaven, You Need a Good Life of Faith 25 AUGUST 2019
Jesus reorients the question, explaining there is ‘no quota’, but notes that what matters is living a good life, full of faith.
It is not who you know that counts, nor what titles you have. The Lord will not recognize us for the titles we have.
But Lord I was part of that association, friends with that monsignor, with that cardinal, that group, that priest. The Lord will only recognize us for a good humble life, a life of faith that is translated into works.”
For us Christians, this means that we are called to establish a true communion with Jesus, praying, going to church, approaching the Sacraments and nourishing ourselves with His Word. This keeps us in faith, nourishes our hope, and revives charity so that with God’s grace, we can and must spend our lives for the good of all, fighting against every form of evil and injustice.”
“May the Virgin Mary help us in this.
“She went through the narrow door, who is Jesus. She welcomed Him with all her heart and followed Him every day of her life, even when she didn’t understand, even when a sword pierced her soul. For this reason, we invoke Mary as “Door of Heaven.”
This ‘door is to God’s heart. It is “demanding, but open to all.”
