Special Report : Benedict XVI Resigns

Pope Benedict XVI

What about his stepping down from office? Yes, it deserves very much respect. He serves the Church like few before him. And yet - it is tragic. It is a drama unfolding and a mirror of the times the Church is in.

I can't help but thinking there are wolves within the Church. We are dealing with more than flesh & blood here.

Let's pray for our Pope (current and future) and for the Church in general!

The Great Commandment

Matthew 22:36-40

King James Version (KJV)

36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Apologetik

Diese Seite hat sich der Apologetik verschrieben, also der Verteidigung und Begründung des Katholischen Glaubens. Es sollen zum einen Katholikinnen und Katholiken das nötige Handwerkszeug bekommen, um ihren Glauben kennen zu lernen (wir können ja letztlich nur lieben, was wir auch kennen), diesen sich selbst gegenüber begründen zu können (Glaube und Vernunft gehen Hand in Hand), aber auch um in der Lage zu sein, den katholischen Glauben gegen Angriffe verteidigen zu können. Andererseits aber möchten wir all denen, die meinen, sie lehnen die Katholische Kirche ab - aber tatsächlich nur das ablehnen, was sie dafür halten - in Liebe begegnen und ihnen unsere Glaubensgrundsätze vermitteln. Schließlich richtet sich diese Homepage respekt- und liebevoll an all die, die meinen, sie wären "bibeltreue Christinnen und Christen" und die Katholische Kirche hätte ihre biblische Grundlage schon lange aufgegeben - wenn sie diese denn überhaupt je hatte. Hier soll vermittelt werden, dass unser Glaube sich sehr wohl auf die Bibel stützt. Wir möchten ihnen in Demut und geschwisterlicher Liebe zeigen, warum wir glauben, was wir glauben.

Letztlich geht es bei diesem Projekt auch und vor allem darum, Jesus und die frohe Botschaft - das Königreich Gottes - zu verkünden und Menschen zu Jüngern Jesu zu machen. Hier soll also nicht auf Biegen und Brechen ein von Gott losgelöst betrachtetes Bollwerk verteidigt werden, sondern anhand unseres eigenen Beispiels anderen Menschen gezeigt werden, was es heisst, einander zu lieben und Jesus nachzufolgen.

My King

Funny thing, if I remember correctly there once used to be a rabbi who did not have any business plan for church mega-growth. No publicity department. No homepage. No emails. No money. Even those He chose as followers were - theologically speaking - illiterates. A handful of dudes, and one even was a bum.

What was He thinking?

When He preached, He used words that drove people away from Him. He couldn't care less. He even asked the remaining rest if they wanted to leave, too. No political correctness here.

Again: What was He thinking?

He could have used other means. He could have been the kind of leader that people back then (and today?) were waiting for. The mighty warlord. The knight in shining armour. The one that kicks some .... and throws those Romans out.

Yes, He could have. He had all the power to do that - and more than that. And what did He do? He dealt with the lowest of the lowest and humbled Himself to their level. He loved people in a way unknown before. With a love that asked for nothing and gave everything. With a love that puts us to shame even today.

He did not fulfill people's expectations. He did not give them what they wanted. He gave them what they truly needed. And to do so, He gave His utmost: He sacrificed Himself and gave His life so we can live. He came down on earth to become man so men could become sons of God. Dying on the cross like a criminal, He even prayed for those who helped nailing Him up there.

And what's worst: He even asked everything of His disciples. They were told to give - no: to sacrifice! - everything they have. To sell all of their possessions, give their money to the poor and follow Him without even looking back. They were even told to give their own lives!

I guess He would still be sort of out of place in some of the churches today.

If I remember correctly, His name was Jesus.

Anybody by chance remember Him?

He is the ruler of my life. He is the one I love and follow.

He is my king.

My saviour.

The Great Commission

Matthew 28:16-20

King James Version (KJV)

16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Apologetics and the Great Commission

The purpose of this homepage is to help people understand and love the Christian faith, the Catholic Church - and most of all: Jesus Himself and like that become true disciples. This homepage is NOT about pushing "the Catholic cause" at all costs while forgetting that the Church is the body of Christ and that Jesus set the example of how sacrificial and unconditional love and humbleness should look like.

Remember the Great Commission is not about defending the Catholic Church whatever it costs (even though knowing, explaining, defending - and most of all: obeying and living! -  the Catholic faith sure is part of every Catholic's calling!), but about this:

Matthew 28:16-20

King James Version (KJV)

16Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

17And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

18And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Deutsche Bischofskonferenz

Weckruf!

Die Situation in vielen Pfarreien ist beinahe trostlos: Predigten, mit denen jeder leben kann und die doch nichts sagen und niemanden eine geistige Nahrung bieten, Pfarreien, die seit Jahrzehnten die Worte "Hölle"oder "Verdammnis" nicht mehr gehört haben, liturgische Missbräuche, ein beinahe völliges Fehlen der Glaubensvermittlung und Katechese, ein über Jahrzehnte andauerndes Ausbreiten eines unseligen liberalen Modernismus, eine völlige Unkenntnis der Gläubigen und Würdenträger über den Auftrag Jesu, hinauszugehen und Menschen zu Seinen Jüngern zu machen, eine ebensolche Unkenntnis über das, was Jüngerschaft ausmacht, ein Versagen der Kirche als Institution und Verwaltungseinheit in vielen Bereichen - die Liste ließe sich noch lange fortsetzen.

 

In genau dieser Situation ruft Gott nun all die, die an Ihn glauben, zur radikalen und kompromisslosen Nachfolge Jesu Christi auf. Jede und jeder von uns ist gerufen, tätig zu werden, wo andere versagen!

 

Betet, wie ihr noch nie gebetet habt - und lasst diesen Gebeten Taten folgen!

 

Geht hinaus, macht Menschen zu Jüngern Jesu Christi! Liebt die, die Liebe am meisten nötig haben, mit einer bedingungslosen Liebe, die nichts fordert und alles gibt, damit die Menschen Jesus Christus preisen! Gebt alles, was ihr habt her und folgt dem nach, der allein es wert ist, dass man Ihm nachfolgt:

 

Jesus Christus!

Evangelikale Katholiken?

Geht denn das überhaupt - evangelikal und katholisch? Nun ja, abgesehen vom Prinzip "Sola Scriptura" (also der Bibel als einzige Autorität) geht das durchaus. Mehr noch: es wäre vielleicht die Zukunft der Katholischen Kirche. Es scheint revolutionär, aber wäre es denn so abwegig, wenn es von kirchlicher Seite her möglich wäre, neben den bestehenden Strukturen evangelikale Strukturen zuzulassen - mit ähnlichem Gemeindeaufbau, Glaubensverständnis, Glaubenspraxis, Jüngerschaftsprizip, Evangelisation usw. Warum denn nicht?

I Have Decided to Follow Jesus

"I have decided to follow Jesus. Though no one joins me, still I will follow."

 

Assam, north-east India, who held on to Jesus when being told to recounce his faith by the village chief. His wife was killed and Assam as well - while he was singing these words: "The cross before me, the world behind me." His strong faith kept on shining: The village chief and others in the village converted afterwards. (see: Wikipedia)

PM Netanyahu's Speech at UNGA September 2012

Lumen Gentium 14

"Den katholischen Gläubigen wendet die Heilige Synode besonders ihre Aufmerksamkeit zu. Gestützt auf die Heilige Schrift und die Tradition, lehrt sie, daß diese pilgernde Kirche zum Heile notwendig sei. Christus allein ist Mittler und Weg zum Heil, der in seinem Leib, der Kirche, uns gegenwärtig wird; indem er aber selbst mit ausdrücklichen Worten die Notwendigkeit des Glaubens und der Taufe betont hat (vgl. Mk 16,16; Joh 3,5), hat er zugleich die Notwendigkeit der Kirche, in die die Menschen durch die Taufe wie durch eine Türe eintreten, bekräftigt. Darum könnten jene Menschen nicht gerettet werden, die um die katholische Kirche und ihre von Gott durch Christus gestiftete Heilsnotwendigkeit wissen, in sie aber nicht eintreten oder in ihr nicht ausharren wollten. Jene werden der Gemeinschaft der Kirche voll eingegliedert, die, im Besitze des Geistes Christi, ihre ganze Ordnung und alle in ihr eingerichteten Heilsmittel annehmen und in ihrem sichtbaren Verband mit Christus, der sie durch den Papst und die Bischöfe leitet, verbunden sind, und dies durch die Bande des Glaubensbekenntnisses, der Sakramente und der kirchlichen Leitung und Gemeinschaft. Nicht gerettet wird aber, wer, obwohl der Kirche eingegliedert, in der Liebe nicht verharrt und im Schoße der Kirche zwar "dem Leibe", aber nicht "dem Herzen" nach verbleibt (26). Alle Söhne der Kirche sollen aber dessen eingedenk sein, daß ihre ausgezeichnete Stellung nicht den eigenen Verdiensten, sondern der besonderen Gnade Christi zuzuschreiben ist; wenn sie ihr im Denken, Reden und Handeln nicht entsprechen, wird ihnen statt Heil strengeres Gericht zuteil."

Differences Between Catholic and Protestant Approaches to the Bible

by Steve Ray on March 10, 2013

“Bible Christians” (a misnomer, since Catholics are the real and original Bible Christians), based on their recently devised “Reformation” principle of sola Scriptura, study the Bible with the following premises:

1. There is no binding authority but the Bible alone;

2. There is no official binding interpretation or interpreter; each person ultimately is their own pope;

3. The Bible is perspicuous (i.e., easy to understand) and it can be interpreted and understood by anyone.

4. An individual can/should read the Bible and interpret the Bible for themselves.


Catholics have a different set of premises that direct their study of the Bible.

1. The authority of the Apostles and the Church preceded the Bible and the Sacred Tradition of the Church is an equally infallible authority (2 Thes 2:15; CCC 80 83). The Bible is part of the Apostolic Tradition.

2. The authoritative interpretation of the Bible is the prerogative of the Catholic Church (1 Tim 3:15; Mt 18:17; CCC 85?88).

3. The Bible is not always easy to understand (2 Pet 3:15?16) and needs to understood within its historical and contextual framework and interpreted within the community to which it belongs.

4. Individuals can/should read the Bible and interpret the Bible for themselves—but within the framework of the Church’s authoritative teaching and not based on their own “private interpretation” (2 Pet 1:20?21).

Quote

"I believe in the sun

even when it is not shining

And I believe in love,

even when there's no one there.

And I believe in God,

even when he is silent.


I believe through any trial,

there is always a way

But sometimes in this suffering

and hopeless despair

My heart cries for shelter,

to know someone's there

But a voice rises within me, saying hold on

my child, I'll give you strength,

I'll give you hope. Just stay a little while.


I believe in the sun

even when it is not shining

And I believe in love

even when there's no one there

But I believe in God

even when he is silent

I believe through any trial

there is always a way.


May there someday be sunshine

May there someday be happiness

May there someday be love

May there someday be peace...."
