3 June Page 3 FATHER ANTHONY S FAITH FORMATION CORNER Mark 3:29: Whoever Blasphemes Against the Holy Spirit We are now back to the Sundays of Ordinary Time. Our Gospel reading for this Sunday (Mark 3) has to do with the charges accused against Jesus by the religious leaders: namely that he drives out demons by the prince of demons. Then Jesus utters a statement that eventually would have important theological implications for future generations: All sins and blasphemies shall be forgiven but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin. So what is this sin against the Holy Spirit? Throughout the history of our Christian traditions namely, what we learned in catechism, or in faith formation this sin is quite severe. Beginning with St. Augustine in the early Church, this unforgivable sin had to do with one s final impenitence and resistance to God s grace. Medieval theology describes it as a genus with six species of sin: despair, presumption, impenitence, obstinacy or hardness of heart, resistance to known divine truth, and envy of another s spiritual well-being. Medieval people were obsessed with the number seven: I do not know why they came with only six! In the traditional Calvinist (Protestant) view, very much in line with Augustine, it consisted in deliberately resisting divine truth and was a sign of final reprobation, taking into account the Calvinist concept of predestination. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church: There are no limits to the mercy of God, but anyone who deliberately refuses to accept his mercy by repenting, rejects the forgiveness of his sins and the salvation offered by the Holy Spirit. Such hardness of heart can lead to final impenitence and eternal loss, (#1864). I believe that as Catholics, we all learned these things or similar ones about the sin against the Holy Spirit. However, these views represent later developments beyond the New Testament text and must be tested against the sense intended by the biblical text/author. What I mean to say is that if we just take these views (for example, the six sins in medieval theology) and accept them as final and definitive, we are reading into the biblical text, as opposed to doing justice to the biblical text by interpreting it in its proper context. Reading into the text means that we already have certain preconceptions about something, and we just look for some biblical text to support those preconceived notions. Obviously reading into the text does not do justice to the meaning of the biblical text. Anyway, in the context of the Gospel of Mark (ch. 3), this sin is not final impenitence or refusal to accept God s grace, but the deliberate attempt on the part of the scribes to attribute the divine action (Jesus healing and exorcism) to the demonic In the end, in the overall context of Jesus preaching about the Kingdom of God, no sin is so great that it cannot be forgiven, as long as one opens his/her heart to receive God s mercy.

Lord Jesus Christ, Redeemer of the world, you have shouldered the burden of our weakness and borne our sufferings in your own passion and death. Hear this prayer for our sick brothers and sister whom you have redeemed. Strengthen their hope of salvation and sustain them in body and soul, for you live and reign for ever and ever. Amen.

God, our shelter and our strength, you listen in love to the cry of your people: hear the prayers we offer for our departed brothers and sisters. Cleanse them of their sins and grant them the fullness of redemption. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

5 June Page 5 COÄNG ÑOAØN THAÙNH GIUSE CHÚC MỪNG!!CHÚC MỪNG!! Giáo xứ St. Barbara & Chương Trình Giáo Lý tiếng Việt chúc mừng tất cả các em đã được Rước Lễ Lần Đầu vào ngày 19 tháng 5 năm 2018 vừa qua. Xin Tình Yêu của Chúa Giêsu Thánh Thể luôn ở với các em trong cuộc sống. CHÚA NHẬT TUẦN 10 TN B (Mc 3,20-35) LÀ ANH CHỊ EM VỚI ĐỨC KI-TÔ Ai thi hành ý muốn của Thiên Chúa, người ấy là anh em, chị em, là mẹ tôi. (Mc 3,35) Suy niệm: Xét trên bình diện tự nhiên, đây có thể là một trong những giây phút phũ phàng nhất trong đời của Chúa Giêsu. Người dưng nước lã nói Ngài bị quỷ ám thì cũng đành; còn ở đây ngay cả thân nhân bà con cũng đến để lôi Chúa về nhà, vì họ cho rằng Chúa bị điên loạn, mất trí. Sống trong thân phận con người, nhưng Chúa Giê-su, Con Thiên Chúa nhập thể, vẫn không để bản tính nhân loại lấn át, kéo Ngài xa lạc khỏi sứ mạng thiêng liêng: cứu độ con người để nâng con người lên địa vị làm con cái Thiên Chúa. Ngài nhìn mọi sự trong nhãn quan siêu nhiên đó và cho chúng ta biết mối tương quan thân thuộc đích thực của chúng ta với Ngài không hệ tại ở huyết thống nhân loại mà là ở việc thi hành ý muốn của Thiên Chúa. Mời Bạn: Thay vì nghĩ suy, cư xử theo sự thúc đẩy của xu hướng tự nhiên, chúng ta nhận ra Chúa nơi mọi sự, mọi người; thay vì chạy theo chủ nghĩa thế tục để tìm kiếm tiền tài, danh vọng cốt sao có thể hưởng thụ tối đa ở đời này mà thôi, đối lại, với cặp mắt đức tin siêu nhiên, chúng ta luôn tìm kiếm và hưởng dùng mọi sự, nhắm tới cùng đích là hạnh phúc vĩnh cửu Nước Trời. Nói tóm lại, để trở thành anh em chị em với Chúa Ki-tô, nghĩa là sống trong tình thân với Ngài, chỉ cần một điều kiện, đó là thi hành ý muốn của Thiên Chúa. Sống Lời Chúa: Trước khi hành động bất cứ điều gì, mời bạn dừng lại một giây để thưa với Chúa: Chúa muốn con làm gì để đẹp ý Chúa?

6 June Page 6 COMUNIDAD HISPANA LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura -- El Señor puso enemistad entre la serpiente y la mujer (Génesis 3:9-15). Salmo -- Del Señor viene la misericordia, la redención copiosa (Psalm 130 [129]). Segunda lectura -- Dios nos tiene preparada en el cielo una morada eterna (2 Corintios 4: :1). Evangelio -- El que cumplela voluntad de Dios, ése es mi hermano, mi hermana y mi madre (Marcos 3:20-35). LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Lunes: Hch 11:21b-26; 13:1-3; Sal 98 (97):1-6; Mt 5:1-12 Martes: 1 Re 17:7-16; Sal 4:2-5, 7b-8; Mt 5:13-16 Miércoles: 1 Re 18:20-39; Sal 16 (15):1b-2ab, 4, 5ab, 8, 11; Mt 5:17-19 Jueves: 1 Re 18:41-46; Sal 65 (64):10-13; Mt 5:20-26 Viernes: 1 Re 19:9a, 11-16; Sal 27 (26):7-9abc, 13-14; Mt 5:27-32 Sábado: 1 Re 19:19-21; Sal 16 (15):1b-2a, 5, 7-10; Mt 5:33-37 Domingo: Ez 17:22-24; Sal 92 (91):2-3, 13-16; 2 Cor 5:6-10; Mc 4:26-34 PROMESAS La liturgia de hoy está llena de promesas. La lectura del Génesis promete un final triunfante sobre el poder del pecado y un regreso a una nueva creación. La lectura de la segunda carta a los corintios promete que todo aquel que sigue a Cristo tendrá dificultades. Sin embargo, también promete, que podemos perseverar si reconocemos que Cristo está con nosotros, renovándonos cada día, y dándonos el valor y la fuerza que necesitamos para esta perseverancia. El Evangelio promete que hacer la voluntad de Dios nos hace familia con Jesús, quien perdona todos los pecados y triunfa sobre el mal. Hoy podría ser un buen día para que también nosotros hiciéramos algunas promesas. Podemos prometer dejar de engañarnos a nosotros mismos acerca de nuestras tendencias al egoísmo y el pecado. Podemos prometernos creer --en verdad creer-- que, aunque no estamos sin pecado, somos perdonados. Podemos prometernos combatir el mal y el pecado comportándonos como hermanos y hermanas no solamente con el Señor, sino con nuestros prójimos. TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Basándose en las palabras de Jesús, Mariano de Blas, compuso su canto: "Entre tus manos". Este hermoso canto nos recuerda que "hay que morir para vivir", es decir, que no es nada fácil ser discípulo de Jesucristo. El mismo Jesús nos pide que nos neguemos a nosotros mismos (Mateo 16:24); que carguemos la cruz para seguirlo (Marcos 8:34); que perdamos nuestra vida por su nombre (Lucas 9:24). Todo esto porque Jesús reconoce que el grano de trigo debe morir para dar vida, para multiplicarse (Juan 12:24). El canto: "Una espiga dorada por el sol", de Cesáreo Gabaráin, nos recuerda que los cristianos somos trigo del mismo sembrador. Es Jesús quien nos siembra, nos cultiva, nos cosecha, nos tritura, nos amasa, y nos hace un solo pan consagrado a Dios. Somos granos de trigo que, unidos formamos el pan de la comunión que es comunidad. Para esto, cada uno debe morir a sus egoísmos y preferencias. Morir a sí mismo tiene sentido cristiano, sólo si es para trabajar unidos y en la misión de Cristo, la cual es salvación del mundo y construcción del Reino de Dios.
