SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE:
Throughout the history of Christianity, there have been exceptional individuals in which we posed particular attention at present to be led by them, for help, advocacy , enlightenment. Being perfect models of action in any or all aspects of their lives, for responding faithfully to the call that God makes each of their children, following the path that Jesus showed us during his time on earth, became children worthy to be called Christians, to embody in himself the virtues and qualities of Him whom they loved and wanted to follow.
In the first chapter, first paragraph of "The Imitation of Christ" Hemerkem Thomas a Kempis, read the following reflection: "Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness. These words of Christ encourage us to imitate his life and habits, if we want to be truly enlightened and to be free from all blindness of heart. " Thus begins a book that guides us to go the way of casting off from ourselves and increasingly resemble the Lord, and so have acted in such glowing souls of which we are speaking.
But we would be poor form illustrating the reader about these great people if we do not explain a bit more about how the Church is a time trial to propose to each of them as a role model.
can be understood name "saint" in three ways:
- Everyone who is in Heaven, as part of the beatific vision of God and is confirmed in grace,
- All Christians who are participating in God's grace of holiness, and that St. Paul uses the word saints for refer to the faithful (2 Cor. 13.12, Eph. 1.1), and that by baptism we are freed from sin and grafted in Christ who is God, the Holy of Holies.
- Those who are recognized by the Church and are presented as role models and intercessors before God.
Communion means "common bond" , and Communion of Saints means common union with Christ of all the saints in heaven, the souls in purgatory and the faithful who are still pilgrims on earth.
Es la unión de todos los santos con la Cabeza de la Iglesia, que es Jesucristo, y de todos los santos entre sí. Los del cielo interceden por los demás; los de la tierra honran a los del cielo y se encomiendan a su intercesión, también oran y ofrecen sufragios por los difuntos del purgatorio, y estos también interceden a favor nuestro.
¿Qué es la comunión de los santos?
La comunión de los santos es la unión común que hay entre Jesucristo, Cabeza de la Iglesia, y sus miembros, y de éstos entre sí.
Who are the members of the Church?
members of the church are the saints in heaven, the souls in purgatory and the faithful of the land.
Those who are not in the grace of God, part of the Communion of Saints?
Those who are not participating in God's grace in the communion of saints only in that they can achieve some benefits from the Lord and above all the grace of conversion.
