To All People Of Good Will Who

There Is Another Temptation Which We Must Especially Guard Against: The Simplistic Reductionism Which Sees Only Good Or Evil; Or, If You Will, The Righteous And Sinners. The Contemporary World, With Its Open Wounds Which Affect So Many Of Our Brothers And Sisters, Demands That We Confront Every Form Of Polarization Which Would Divide It Into These Two Camps.

To Follow Jesus Means To Share His Merciful Love For Every Human Being.

The Poor Is The Center Of The Gospel. If We Take Out The Poor, We Cannot Understand The Message Of Christ

I Think With Great Affection And Deep Gratitude Of My Venerable Predecessor, Benedict Xvi, Who During These Years Of His Pontificate Has Enriched And Strengthened The Church With His Teaching, His Goodness, His Guidance, His Faith, His Humility, And His Gentleness, Which Will Remain A Spiritual Heritage For All.

In This Year Of Faith, Let Us Remember That Faith Is Not Something We Possess, But Something We Share. Every Christian Is An Apostle.
