Outside the communion and the mediation of thechurch. These are dangerous and harmful temptations.Dear friends, let us ask the Lord, through the interces-sion of the virgin Mary, Mother of the Church, for the gracenever to fail into the temptation of thinking we can makeit without others, that we can get along without theChurch, that we can save ourselves on our own of beingChristians from the laboratory.On the contrary, you cannot love God without loving yourbrothers, you cannot love God outside the Church;you cannot be in communion with God withoutbeing so in the Church, and we cannot be a goodChristians if we are not together with those who seek tofollow the Load Jesus, as one single people, one singlebody, and this is the Church. Thank you
POPE FRANCIS on belongingto Catholic ChurchAt times one hears someone says:“I believe in God, I believe in Jesus,but I don’t care about the Church…”.How many times have we hears this?And this is not good. There are thosewho believe they can maintain a per-sonal, direct and immediate relation-ship with Jesus Christ
