Collects fish of every kind

Ex 40,16-21.34-38; Ps 83; Mt 13,47-53
1 AUGUST

The Church of Christ Jesus, offered to us in the image or figure or similitude of the net thrown into the sea, is the cradle and fertile field of numberless martyrs and confessors of faith, but also the bosom of idolaters, apostates, heresiarchs, scandal and schism operators, cultivators of all immorality, today also of destroyers of the truth of the Gospel in the name of mercy, of acceptance and of compassion for man. The Holy Spirit and Satan work together in the Church of the Lord. He who is not of the Spirit of the Lord is a slave to Satan and his falsehood. This cohabitation will last until the end of the world. Wanting a Church of Cathars is against the Gospel itself and every revelation. This interweaving of good and evil, of virtue and vice, of pride and humility, of the highest morality but also of infernal immorality is not of modern times. But of all time. Within the Apostles of the Lord Judah was already ruled by Satan. Saint John denounces the pride that has already taken root in some Christian communities.

As a result of this, many (of) his disciples returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him. Jesus then said to the Twelve, “Do you also want to leave?” Simon Peter answered him, “Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and are convinced that you are the Holy One of God.” Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you twelve? Yet is not one of you a devil?” He was referring to Judas, son of Simon the Iscariot; it was he who would betray him, one of the Twelve (Jn 6,66-71). Beloved, you are faithful in all you do for the brothers, especially for strangers; they have testified to your love before the church. Please help them in a way worthy of God to continue their journey. For they have set out for the sake of the Name and are accepting nothing from the pagans. Therefore, we ought to support such persons, so that we may be co-workers in the truth. I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to dominate, does not acknowledge us. Therefore, if I come, I will draw attention to what he is doing, spreading evil nonsense about us. And not content with that, he will not receive the brothers, hindering those who wish to do so and expelling them from the church. Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does what is good is of God; whoever does what is evil has never seen God. Demetrius receives a good report from all, even from the truth itself. We give our testimonial as well, and you know our testimony is true. I have much to write to you, but I do not wish to write with pen and ink. Instead, I hope to see you soon, when we can talk face to face. Peace be with you. The friends greet you; greet the friends there each by name (3Jn 5-15).

Those who see evil and put it in great evidence in order to hide the sanctity that has always existed and will always exist in the Church, are of a bad faith and consequently bad at heart. The clear eye, formed at the school of the Holy Spirit, always knows how to see the good to thank the Lord and always knows how to grasp evil, in order to offer his life to God for the redemption of every man still distant and far from Him. Jesus in the Spirit of God sees the good and praises the Lord. He sees evil, asks the Father for forgiveness and offers him his life as a sacrifice of expiation and redemption. With the eyes of Satan both good and evil are used to tarnish the Church, transforming good into evil and evil into an accusation to turn away from her.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net thrown into the sea, which collects fish of every kind. When it is full they haul it ashore and sit down to put what is good into buckets. What is bad they throw away. Thus it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth. “Do you understand all these things?” They answered, “Yes.” And he replied, “Then every scribe who has been instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like the head of a household who brings from his storeroom both the new and the old.” When Jesus finished these parables, he went away from there.

Who walks in the Holy Spirit walks from light to light and from truth to truth. Since he walks, he leaves some things and takes others. He takes of yesterday what is useful today. He takes what is of yesterday that gives life today. The life of the Church of God is in all things like a tree. When a branch is dry and unproductive, it is cut. This way space is left for new branches so that they can develop and produce many fruits.

Mother of God, Angels and Saints arrange that we always see from the Holy Spirit.
