READ
For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees acknowledge them all. (Acts 23:8, RSV2CE)
REFLECT
Sects within Judaism refusing to believe all the council of God created confusion and division within the people and led to not knowing who God really is. We must have unity to understand who the True God is who reveals Himself. We do not get to define him, he reveals who he is and we can accept or reject. The Catholic Church has been given the Keys of the Kingdom and Peter’s office as the Rock on which it stands. The Holy Spirit has been and will continue to guide it. Do not refuse what the Church has put for belief, it can and does lead to confusion and division within and around.
PRAY
God, please forgive my arrogance thinking that I know better than 2000 years of the Church. Help me not be afraid to submit myself to your own body which is the church. It’s not me and you, it’s You and your body! The family you have chosen. Amen.
