What is important here is that we are all of, well, it's pointing to unity, but yet
it's a common phrase in theology, unity and plurality, unity that is we are one in the
faith, we are one in our belief in Christ, in our following of Christ, even if we have
each our own way of expressing it, as it were, and that is by going out and sharing it, and
that's what this man was doing, who was dispelling demons, in the name of Christ, he was following
him, even if he was not walking with them, with the Christ and his disciples, even if
they didn't see him.
Except at that one point, he too, because he was doing it in the name of Christ, was
following Christ.
We all are called to share the love of God to everyone, and we are all called to follow
the gospel, every one of us, in a word, we are all called to holiness, all called to
unite ourselves to God, but each one, therefore we are also called to share it with everyone,
not once, all souls, he created all of us to be with him in paradise, but he waits for
us to choose it, but what about those who have no one to tell them, to share it with
them, see, they wait for somebody to bring that news to them, the gospel to them, but
each one of us has our own way of doing it, we all are called to apostolate one way or
another, literally what apostolate means, sent out, being sent out.
Going out and sharing that message, and each one, because each one of us is created differently,
each one of us is given our own talents, we are all called to do it, we all have our own
way of carrying that out, and just because we do it in a different way than another,
doesn't mean we are not following, we are, so long as we all have that one faith, we
all believe the same thing, we see that also practiced in, at the beginning of the church
in the Acts of the Apostles, they were of all, the author tells us, they were all of
one mind, so it doesn't mean that each one is acting exactly the same way as a robot,
and if they are not acting exactly in that same way, it doesn't mean that they are not
apart, they don't follow, it isn't like that.
We all believe the same, we all believe in Christ, we all believe that He died for us
and rose from the dead for us, and that He will come again at the end of time, etc.,
we all believe the same thing, we have each one, we have expressing it, so long as it
is the one true faith, so we have to watch carefully, study carefully, reflect, pray
much.
Ok?
That we are, what we do express is the truth.
That we are not deviating from that truth.
But even if we express it differently from the one next to me,
even if I express it differently from the one next to me,
so long as it's that one truth, it's still that one truth.
He and I are both following, we're all following.
Let us then seek always that truth
and not be afraid to share it with everyone.
Praise be Jesus in the earth.
