Transcript

00:00:00.000 We have to understand that the source of martyrdom is supernatural love.
00:00:04.720 Not only love, supernatural love.
00:00:09.040 Bishop Schneider, thank you so much for joining us.
00:00:11.120 Thank you for your invitation.
00:00:12.520 Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross.
00:00:14.600 If you could lead us, please.
00:00:16.260 In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
00:00:21.740 Amen.
00:00:22.520 Talking about your book on the martyrs, I thought it would be amazing to speak,
00:00:26.860 first of all, about something that has captured the imagination of the world,
00:00:32.480 and particularly the United States.
00:00:34.760 With the assassination of Charlie Kirk, it was a massive thing.
00:00:39.960 And right away, people started talking about martyrdom.
00:00:44.620 But of course, he was not a Catholic.
00:00:47.000 Now, there was theories that he might be joining the Church.
00:00:49.860 One bishop, in fact, his brother, said that he was indeed going to join the Church.
00:00:53.760 But those are other questions.
00:00:55.740 He wasn't a Catholic.
00:00:56.640 Maybe wanted to be, maybe would have been, we could say.
00:01:00.160 But how is a Catholic to make sense of the idea that he's being thought of as a martyr?
00:01:06.380 He obviously spoke for Christ and for his truth on life and on family,
00:01:12.720 perhaps more courageously than many Catholics, perhaps even many Catholic religious leaders.
00:01:18.720 And yet comes the question, Charlie Kirk, could he be considered a martyr?
00:01:23.040 Yes, I think yes, because we could see in his life that he was really very committed to defend the Christian faith,
00:01:35.980 the uniqueness of our Lord Jesus Christ, the faith in him as the only redeemer of the world.
00:01:41.300 And also, he boldly defended God's commandments about marriage and family and also life.
00:01:53.820 He was defender of life.
00:01:55.820 He was defender of life also.
00:01:57.600 So, these two main, or I would say three main attacks of the world against Christianity and also Catholicism,
00:02:07.880 I would say, is the first attack against the first commandment of God with the relativism,
00:02:15.200 saying that there are many religions and so Jesus Christ is one of the ways.
00:02:19.580 Even some high-ranking clergy are speaking so, and so this is the first and then the other attack is against the fifth commandment not to kill.
00:02:33.100 And this is the, I think, the greatest wound in our current world, the worldwide genocide of the unworn children.
00:02:45.860 This is horrible, and we have to fight against this, really.
00:02:53.240 And the other commandment, the sixth commandment, simply, it is all this agenda against family, against marriage,
00:03:04.200 the so-called gender ideology or the LGBT agendas are a direct attack against the sixth commandment.
00:03:12.360 It is basically an abolishment, a total abolition of the sixth commandment of God.
00:03:19.040 And so, these three attacks, we could see that Charlie Kirk was defending Christ and God's commandment on these three issues.
00:03:29.580 The uniqueness of our Lord Jesus Christ, inviting especially young people to believe in Jesus Christ as the only Savior,
00:03:37.360 and then to be defenders of life against the anti-culture of death, and then the sanctity of marriage and family.
00:03:46.760 So, therefore, we have to acknowledge it, and I think God will reward him for this, his commitment, courageous.
00:03:54.860 And he was, of course, conscious that with this, his commitment, he was going against the current and was also provoking enemies and hatred against him.
00:04:08.660 And he had known it in other occasions.
00:04:12.560 Therefore, we can say he was killed, objectively, we can say, out of hatred against these, his commitments, which he did.
00:04:23.100 In this sense, we can consider him a martyr, but, of course, we cannot celebrate him in the Catholic Church as a martyr,
00:04:33.960 because it would cause another confusion.
00:04:38.880 So, relative realization between the uniqueness of the Catholic Church as the unique God-willed religion,
00:04:48.240 and others, even Protestants' communities, which are not the true, full way to God, which is not—these are separation from the true Church.
00:04:59.940 But, of course, Charlie Kirk did it in, I assume, in a so-called invincible ignorance.
00:05:08.880 He was convinced that he is remaining in his community, he is serving God.
00:05:14.360 Only God can judge his intentions of the heart.
00:05:17.380 We cannot do it.
00:05:18.880 We can assume that he had a good will, bona fide, as the theologians say,
00:05:25.320 but nevertheless, we cannot celebrate him as a martyr liturgically in the Catholic Church.
00:05:34.880 We can have a deep esteem of this courageous man, and ask God that the sacrifice of his life can produce fruits of conversion of the young people
00:05:53.200 who had listened to him to the Catholic truth and fullness.
00:05:56.880 The most repeated phrase in Scripture is,
00:06:01.440 Do not be afraid.
00:06:02.860 We are called to speak the truth, to proclaim the gospel, and to live our lives without fear.
00:06:09.220 For the past three years, we've brought this mission to the very heart of the Church.
00:06:14.580 At the Rome Life Forum, you won't just hear truth proclaimed,
00:06:18.440 you'll have the chance to ask your questions directly to the speakers.
00:06:22.280 This is your opportunity to engage, to challenge, and to go deeper into the battles we face today.
00:06:29.600 Fear not.
00:06:31.000 Her immaculate heart will triumph.
00:06:34.260 On the very same thing of, as you mentioned about Charlie and his invincible ignorance,
00:06:41.620 he, by his own testimony, was looking to Catholicism.
00:06:47.160 But then, he mentioned the number one thing keeping him back from Catholicism was the confusion coming from Pope Francis.
00:06:55.140 And that was a very difficult thing for him.
00:06:57.480 Yes, I think this is also a kind of mitigating circumstance.
00:07:03.460 This huge confusion, which, unfortunately, the last pontificate of Pope Francis caused in the Church,
00:07:11.960 and even being outside the Church, and therefore God will also take into account this very difficult circumstance of confusion
00:07:23.580 for those non-Catholic Christians who were seeking the truth.
00:07:27.760 I think if we had a Pope which had been strong and crystal clear in defending Jesus Christ, the only Savior,
00:07:43.880 the sacredness of marriage, of God's creation of man and woman,
00:07:48.920 and fighting, even as a Pope, against the worldwide gender ideology, courageously,
00:07:56.500 and inviting the other Christians to join the fullness of the Catholic faith, explaining them,
00:08:03.340 I think that Charlie Kirkwood had joined the Catholic Church.
00:08:09.280 Beautiful.
00:08:09.600 Now, one of the things in your book, you mentioned that you yourself have known martyrs for the faith,
00:08:18.000 and describe them in the book. Tell us about that.
00:08:20.180 Yes, I had the grace of God that I grew up in my childhood in the underground church in the Soviet Union,
00:08:28.620 and especially one martyr who was, he's really beatified, a priest martyr, blessed Alexei Zaritsky,
00:08:39.080 Ukrainian bi-ritualist priest. He was very close to my parents.
00:08:44.880 So, when my parents were in the Ural Mountains in the forced labor camps and in the ghettos there for Germans,
00:08:53.840 he came several times, and so my parents helped him in some way.
00:09:01.300 My parents were hunter-crowned church activists and helped Father Blessed Alexei, this martyr priest,
00:09:08.840 several times, even hiding him, helping him to organize the masses.
00:09:14.620 And then he visited us in Kyrgyzstan, where I was born,
00:09:18.700 even so celebrated in our house, the traditional Latin Mass, in 62.
00:09:26.660 And I was one year old, and my mother put me in a cradle on the side of the table
00:09:33.600 where he was celebrating Mass.
00:09:35.760 So, in some way, I became an altar boy with one year of my age.
00:09:40.520 And so, he blessed me and my siblings, and so this was, I saw him with my eyes,
00:09:50.700 but I don't remember, of course, I was one year old, and he blessed me.
00:09:55.120 And then when he left us, it was May 62, from Kyrgyzstan back to Kazakhstan,
00:10:01.340 where he was in a kind of house arrest, and then he was straightaway arrested by the KGB,
00:10:11.680 the Secret Service, in Karaganda City, and put into the Karlak Gulag,
00:10:19.100 one of the famous gulags outside Karaganda.
00:10:23.160 And there, he still suffered one and a half year, these horrible conditions,
00:10:28.780 and then died as a consequence of these conditions in the prison in 63.
00:10:38.640 And his feast will be after tomorrow.
00:10:42.080 We celebrate here in Kazakhstan the feast of this martyr priest
00:10:45.840 who gave his life here in Kazakhstan for Christ and for the Catholic faith.
00:10:51.120 And he, his main phrase was oftentimes this, when he said,
00:10:58.800 remain faithful to the faith of your forefathers.
00:11:04.880 It's very timely for our day also, even for us in the Western world.
00:11:10.760 Remain faithful to the faith of your forefathers.
00:11:13.900 So, those generations who gave us this true and full Catholic faith.
00:11:22.920 And so, this is one person.
00:11:25.780 And the other priest was Father Yanis Pavlovskis, a Capuchin priest from Latvia.
00:11:34.380 He also passed many years in the Gulag, in Karaganda, even there where I was first bishop auxiliary,
00:11:44.860 in the same town, in the 50s, during the Stalin time.
00:11:48.580 And then, when he was freed, he could go back to Latvia.
00:11:54.600 And then, he was a parish priest in Estonia, where we moved then from Kyrgyzstan to Estonia,
00:12:03.200 and where he was my parish priest.
00:12:05.600 My first holy confession was with this confessor priest.
00:12:09.700 He gave me holy communion.
00:12:10.960 And on Sundays, since we had to travel, most of the father's family, to travel to the church, 70 miles,
00:12:19.940 he invited us after Mass, only our family, we were four siblings and the parents,
00:12:24.840 to go in his room, to spend some hours there, to drink something and to rest,
00:12:32.120 before we had to travel with the train in the evening.
00:12:34.720 And so, I had four years, so a close contact to this holy confessor priest.
00:12:41.220 He did not die directly as a martyr, but he passed so many sufferings in the camp of concentration.
00:12:48.740 And he left such a deep impression on my soul.
00:12:52.560 I was 12 years old.
00:12:54.720 I perceived it in my parents.
00:12:57.300 It was a holy priest.
00:12:58.500 He irradiated simply holiness.
00:13:00.580 And what he gave to us, to me and my siblings, my parents,
00:13:06.480 when we left the Soviet Union in the end of 73,
00:13:12.800 and said farewell to him, he gave us a blessing,
00:13:15.520 and then he said these words to us.
00:13:17.460 I remember this.
00:13:19.380 When you will come to Germany, be attentive.
00:13:23.740 There are some churches where communion is given in the hand.
00:13:27.900 Don't go to these churches.
00:13:32.360 And when we heard this, it was incredible for us.
00:13:36.760 My mother spontaneously said, what a horror.
00:13:40.620 This was the first reaction of my mother.
00:13:43.900 And I, in my age as a boy, I could not understand.
00:13:48.520 It was so strange when I heard this first word.
00:13:51.500 The holy sacrament is given in the hand.
00:13:54.060 We were so deeply educated to the reverence by the blessed Father Zaritsky,
00:14:01.860 by other priests, and by this Father Yanis Pavlovskis,
00:14:05.980 that I could not imagine it.
00:14:09.140 And the other person is a virgin, Gertrude Tetzel, a German,
00:14:16.000 in Kazakhstan, in Karaganda, in my previous diocese.
00:14:21.360 She was a lay catechist, and really, she helped a priest,
00:14:27.960 the underground priest, to teach children catechism.
00:14:31.360 She prepared the adults for sacraments, for holy marriage.
00:14:36.120 In the absence of the priest, she was leading prayers for burial,
00:14:41.460 because there was no priest, how to bury people.
00:14:45.020 And she led the prayers there.
00:14:46.980 And sometimes, in emergency cases, she baptized children before they died.
00:14:51.820 There was no priest.
00:14:53.360 You see, this is the true collaboration of women in the church,
00:14:59.800 not to occupy offices of administration or even hierarchical ranks,
00:15:10.980 starting with, of course, with deacon, and then they will promote, and so on.
00:15:15.740 As in our day, we are witnessing these efforts in the Catholic Church
00:15:22.760 to promote this false promotion of women.
00:15:25.480 This virgin, Gertrude Tetzel, she was so many years persecuted.
00:15:32.660 She was in prison, in gulags, only because she was teaching catechism,
00:15:38.520 only because she was burying the faithful,
00:15:43.180 and then she was preparing the young couples for matrimony.
00:15:47.760 And she gave all her life, and then she suffered so much in prisons,
00:15:52.840 and in the prison, she organized a kind of secret church.
00:15:58.600 She managed this in the women barrack.
00:16:02.400 She, every Sunday, there was worship without a priest, of course,
00:16:06.980 but she led the prayers and so on.
00:16:09.800 At the danger that she could be even condemned to high punishments,
00:16:16.780 she did it, and even sometimes she was so zealous that she tried even to convert
00:16:23.460 the waiters and the bosses of the camp of concentration.
00:16:30.260 She was several times, very often, she called during the night for interrogations,
00:16:36.800 very hard.
00:16:38.740 She had to work all the day hard, like a man, and then all the night, not sleeping.
00:16:45.480 They did not allow her sleep.
00:16:47.460 They were interrogating.
00:16:48.700 And during these interrogations, she started to evangelize them.
00:16:52.840 And she had such a strong personality and convincing words.
00:16:59.180 I think it was the Holy Spirit, that the officers there, they were shocked.
00:17:05.540 And then one day, she was called in the night again.
00:17:10.400 And then the first question she asked the boss,
00:17:14.580 Do you know what day is today?
00:17:17.480 And he said, Well, today is 15th of May.
00:17:20.700 No, today is the feast of the ascension of Jesus Christ into heaven.
00:17:24.700 And then she started to make a catechesis of Jesus Christ and his ascension.
00:17:30.760 And so, and then the boss said, Take away this woman.
00:17:35.820 Otherwise, I will start to believe also.
00:17:40.460 And then she was even expelled from the camp because they were fearing
00:17:45.360 that she is evangelizing all the prisoners there.
00:17:49.660 And for this, I would say, confess a virgin.
00:17:55.200 She was a virgin living in the world.
00:17:58.740 And now, it started a process of beatification.
00:18:04.500 And last week, all the documents were brought to Rome,
00:18:08.280 to the dicastery of the canonizations.
00:18:11.340 And there, you'll start the apostolic process of her beatification.
00:18:16.540 And so, these three confessors and one martyr,
00:18:24.040 I presented also in my book, which was published recently,
00:18:29.520 No Greater Love on Martyrdom.
00:18:32.000 Beautiful.
00:18:33.020 So, one of the things you present in your book,
00:18:35.100 which is very interesting,
00:18:36.760 you speak about Our Lady, the Virgin Mary, as a martyr.
00:18:41.020 And of course, for most people, that's going to be,
00:18:43.040 What? She wasn't killed or anything.
00:18:44.960 And yet, it answers a question as well,
00:18:48.460 because in the Church, we call her the Queen of Martyrs.
00:18:51.400 And so, if you can tell us about that.
00:18:53.060 Yes.
00:18:53.560 St. Augustine says,
00:18:55.240 It is not the suffering which makes one martyr.
00:18:59.040 It is the cause, the reason.
00:19:01.100 And so, Our Lord, of course, is the source of martyrdom.
00:19:04.360 That's the sacrifice of Our Lord on the cross.
00:19:10.800 The redeeming sacrifice is the source of all martyrdom.
00:19:16.500 Because He, what is martyrdom,
00:19:18.860 Our Lord demonstrated and revealed in His redeeming death on the cross,
00:19:25.740 in His sacrifice.
00:19:27.060 It is love.
00:19:28.440 And so, really, we have to understand that the source of martyrdom is supernatural love.
00:19:34.200 Not only love, supernatural love.
00:19:37.000 Because Our Lord said,
00:19:39.740 No one has more love than who is giving his life for his friends.
00:19:47.080 And you are my friends, he said.
00:19:49.200 I am calling you no more servants, but friends.
00:19:53.120 And so, he gave his life out of love for the Father.
00:19:58.940 This is the first.
00:20:00.860 And then, out of love for all the sinful humanity,
00:20:06.940 for every soul to redeem from the sins,
00:20:10.420 and to open them the gate of heaven.
00:20:14.240 Of course, everyone must individually accept Christ to be saved.
00:20:19.980 And then, Our Lady,
00:20:22.320 She was beneath the cross,
00:20:24.780 and She was the creature on earth
00:20:29.800 who the most closely participated interiorly
00:20:36.480 with the sacrifice of Jesus Christ,
00:20:41.280 with His intention,
00:20:43.680 with His interior sacrifice.
00:20:47.320 And St. Bernhard of Clairvaux,
00:20:48.960 he very beautifully explains it,
00:20:51.640 that when the soldier pierced
00:20:53.780 the heart of the Lord on the cross,
00:20:58.280 he first pierced the soul of Our Lady.
00:21:01.920 And then, from this piercing of her soul,
00:21:05.820 he pierced Our Lord,
00:21:08.180 the body of Our Lord.
00:21:09.580 Before the soldier reached the body of Our Lord,
00:21:13.280 his physical heart,
00:21:14.960 he first trespassed and pierced
00:21:17.960 the soul of Our Lady.
00:21:19.900 So, she was really
00:21:21.200 the most closest united to Him.
00:21:25.180 And therefore,
00:21:26.060 she is called in some way
00:21:27.360 the co-redemptrix,
00:21:29.040 in the sense that
00:21:30.020 she was participating
00:21:31.920 with, con,
00:21:33.800 with the Redeemer,
00:21:35.240 the most closest possible,
00:21:36.720 because she was
00:21:37.640 the most pure creature,
00:21:40.620 immaculate,
00:21:41.600 and therefore,
00:21:42.500 she had,
00:21:43.500 she could,
00:21:44.160 the deepest suffering
00:21:45.580 is of a pure soul,
00:21:48.240 because all the others,
00:21:50.720 human creatures,
00:21:52.000 were sinners,
00:21:53.460 except Our Lady.
00:21:56.560 And therefore,
00:21:57.200 her sufferings
00:21:58.020 were the deepest one
00:21:59.680 which human beings
00:22:00.760 can endure.
00:22:02.080 And so,
00:22:04.260 the Church,
00:22:05.780 since the first times,
00:22:09.240 venerated her
00:22:10.100 as the closest participant
00:22:15.700 of the redemption
00:22:16.880 of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
00:22:18.580 and then she was called later
00:22:19.960 even the Queen of Martyrs.
00:22:22.860 Beautiful.
00:22:23.340 I think a lot of people,
00:22:25.780 especially if they practice
00:22:27.700 traditional old prayers,
00:22:30.340 I remember very well
00:22:31.560 the Stabat Mata,
00:22:32.780 which we used to sing
00:22:34.340 or pray in between
00:22:35.640 the stations of the cross,
00:22:36.920 that let you relate
00:22:39.200 to Our Lady
00:22:40.360 as someone who suffered
00:22:41.620 with her son
00:22:42.340 in a very special,
00:22:44.040 in a unique way,
00:22:45.400 and so spoke to that
00:22:46.340 very, very much.
00:22:48.120 Amazing.
00:22:49.380 In your book,
00:22:50.300 who are some of the others
00:22:51.060 that you list
00:22:51.800 in terms of the martyrs?
00:22:53.720 Well, I started
00:22:54.620 chronologically
00:22:55.800 with the Old Testament.
00:22:59.040 The so-called
00:22:59.680 the Maccabee martyrs
00:23:03.120 of the Book of Maccabees
00:23:04.640 and even the Church,
00:23:07.220 since the first centuries,
00:23:09.220 the fathers of the Church,
00:23:10.560 they considered
00:23:11.240 the Maccabee martyrs
00:23:13.860 as Christian martyrs
00:23:16.160 because the mother
00:23:18.300 with the seven brothers,
00:23:19.840 and there was a feast
00:23:21.660 of them on the 1st of August
00:23:24.340 in the Old Missal,
00:23:26.240 the Church celebrated them.
00:23:27.820 Yes.
00:23:28.920 And the Church Fathers,
00:23:30.180 even St. Augustine
00:23:31.200 and other Church Fathers,
00:23:32.260 St. John Chrysostom,
00:23:33.940 they raised them.
00:23:37.600 And why?
00:23:39.360 Of course,
00:23:40.380 they lived before Christ,
00:23:41.900 but all the just
00:23:44.660 in the Old Testament,
00:23:47.280 they implicitly were believing
00:23:49.480 in Jesus Christ already.
00:23:51.620 This is the constant teaching
00:23:54.460 of the Church,
00:23:56.340 the Apostle Paul,
00:23:57.220 and all the Church Fathers.
00:23:59.980 And therefore,
00:24:01.020 we celebrate in the liturgy
00:24:03.480 Abraham,
00:24:04.700 Moses,
00:24:05.940 Isaiah,
00:24:07.380 Elias,
00:24:08.400 and so on,
00:24:09.080 as our saints
00:24:10.480 because they believed
00:24:11.760 in Jesus Christ
00:24:12.880 implicitly.
00:24:14.820 And
00:24:15.240 the Maccabees,
00:24:17.600 they gave their life
00:24:18.720 for the fidelity
00:24:19.740 to the divine law
00:24:23.060 which they received
00:24:24.720 from Moses,
00:24:25.640 and they were convinced
00:24:27.300 that this is the will of God.
00:24:29.340 We cannot participate
00:24:30.940 in pagan rites
00:24:32.880 or
00:24:33.860 usages
00:24:36.420 like the
00:24:37.460 food prescriptions.
00:24:39.560 They considered
00:24:40.220 it so holy
00:24:41.300 that
00:24:42.200 died
00:24:42.940 not so much,
00:24:44.540 I would say,
00:24:45.380 for this food,
00:24:46.160 not to eat pork,
00:24:48.040 but they died
00:24:49.040 simply
00:24:49.580 for fidelity
00:24:50.880 to the law
00:24:52.100 of God
00:24:52.680 to
00:24:53.480 which God
00:24:54.500 gave
00:24:55.040 them.
00:24:56.560 And so
00:24:57.080 they are
00:24:57.600 they died
00:24:59.600 for the truth
00:25:00.600 and in this sense
00:25:02.620 they gave
00:25:03.460 their life
00:25:04.140 implicitly
00:25:05.660 also for
00:25:06.380 Jesus Christ
00:25:07.360 because
00:25:08.020 Jesus Christ
00:25:08.940 the Father
00:25:09.460 and the Holy Spirit
00:25:10.540 is one God
00:25:11.640 and the Holy Trinity
00:25:12.940 gave the law
00:25:13.860 in the Old Testament
00:25:14.680 and therefore
00:25:15.760 our Lord
00:25:16.380 the Son of God
00:25:18.260 the Eternal Son of God
00:25:19.620 also gave
00:25:20.300 this law
00:25:20.960 to the Old Testament
00:25:22.840 and they
00:25:24.220 died
00:25:24.980 also
00:25:25.620 because
00:25:26.280 they were
00:25:26.660 faithful
00:25:27.380 to the
00:25:28.620 Son of God
00:25:29.440 which of course
00:25:30.400 they did not yet
00:25:31.200 fully recognize
00:25:32.460 at that time
00:25:33.380 but
00:25:34.680 they were
00:25:35.480 implicit
00:25:36.060 Christians.
00:25:38.640 So
00:25:38.840 and then
00:25:39.720 the next
00:25:40.400 is
00:25:40.940 Saint John
00:25:42.580 the Baptist
00:25:43.400 whom
00:25:44.900 the Church
00:25:45.460 since the first
00:25:46.340 centuries
00:25:46.900 regarded
00:25:48.140 as a
00:25:49.660 martyr
00:25:50.040 and
00:25:51.340 he died
00:25:52.200 not directly
00:25:53.400 because
00:25:54.180 he confessed
00:25:55.220 Jesus Christ
00:25:56.000 directly
00:25:56.600 but he died
00:25:57.800 for the holiness
00:25:58.500 of God's
00:26:00.220 commandment
00:26:00.840 of the
00:26:01.280 indiscibility
00:26:02.240 of marriage
00:26:03.300 and the Church
00:26:05.320 Father says
00:26:05.980 he died
00:26:07.840 for the truth
00:26:08.580 and Jesus Christ
00:26:09.980 is the truth
00:26:11.060 and he died
00:26:12.880 in his quality
00:26:14.520 as the
00:26:16.180 precursor
00:26:17.240 of our Lord
00:26:18.140 Jesus Christ
00:26:19.360 in this quality
00:26:22.420 he appointed
00:26:23.880 to the Lord
00:26:24.700 this is the Lamb
00:26:25.680 of God
00:26:26.240 who takes away
00:26:27.000 the sins
00:26:27.420 of the world
00:26:28.080 and so
00:26:29.580 all his life
00:26:30.400 was to
00:26:31.260 decrease
00:26:31.860 and Jesus
00:26:32.680 Christ may
00:26:33.420 grow
00:26:34.380 increase
00:26:35.240 this was
00:26:35.900 his motto
00:26:36.680 all his life
00:26:37.840 and therefore
00:26:39.120 his death
00:26:40.360 is a kind
00:26:41.400 of crowning
00:26:42.640 of what
00:26:44.340 he always
00:26:44.720 desired
00:26:45.340 to decrease
00:26:46.500 and to
00:26:47.420 enhance
00:26:48.080 our Lord
00:26:48.560 Jesus Christ
00:26:49.460 to make him
00:26:50.000 great
00:26:50.440 his truth
00:26:51.420 so these
00:26:53.120 are
00:26:53.460 chronologically
00:26:54.220 and then
00:26:54.760 of course
00:26:55.280 the
00:26:55.720 proto-martyr
00:26:56.760 of the Church
00:26:58.000 this is
00:26:58.480 St. Stephen
00:26:59.100 the Deacon
00:26:59.720 who is
00:27:01.060 the
00:27:01.380 well I forgot
00:27:02.720 still the
00:27:04.880 Bethlehem
00:27:05.840 innocent
00:27:06.440 children
00:27:07.100 who died
00:27:09.620 also for
00:27:10.480 Jesus Christ
00:27:11.320 even in
00:27:12.540 their age
00:27:13.600 not
00:27:14.440 explicitly
00:27:16.420 conscious
00:27:18.360 but de facto
00:27:20.380 they died
00:27:21.780 because of
00:27:22.860 hatred
00:27:23.260 against
00:27:24.020 the Lord
00:27:25.160 Jesus Christ
00:27:26.220 the
00:27:27.400 St.
00:27:28.060 Children
00:27:28.320 of Bethlehem
00:27:29.100 and the
00:27:30.320 Church
00:27:30.640 also since
00:27:31.320 the first
00:27:31.760 centuries
00:27:32.260 celebrated
00:27:33.020 their feast
00:27:34.160 as
00:27:35.320 the first
00:27:37.040 Christians
00:27:38.160 who gave
00:27:40.000 their life
00:27:40.660 for Jesus
00:27:41.120 Christ
00:27:41.740 because of
00:27:42.800 hatred
00:27:43.160 of Jesus
00:27:43.720 Christ
00:27:44.240 and then
00:27:44.660 the next
00:27:45.520 explicit
00:27:46.520 conscious
00:27:47.240 adult
00:27:47.900 was then
00:27:49.540 St. Stephen
00:27:50.720 the Deacon
00:27:51.300 who
00:27:52.760 because of
00:27:54.100 his
00:27:54.460 confession
00:27:55.220 of
00:27:55.800 the
00:27:56.680 divinity
00:27:57.140 of our
00:27:57.880 Lord
00:27:58.120 Jesus
00:27:58.320 Christ
00:27:58.840 and his
00:27:59.980 uniqueness
00:28:01.420 he was
00:28:03.340 provoking
00:28:04.580 the hatred
00:28:05.120 of the Jews
00:28:06.140 the Pharisees
00:28:07.700 and was
00:28:09.460 and gave
00:28:09.900 his life
00:28:10.500 for the
00:28:11.560 Lord
00:28:11.860 the importance
00:28:12.620 is the
00:28:13.240 next
00:28:13.540 I sing
00:28:14.120 the
00:28:14.640 Apostles
00:28:15.980 St.
00:28:16.240 Peter and
00:28:16.720 Paul
00:28:17.080 the greatest
00:28:18.580 Apostles
00:28:19.380 who died
00:28:20.880 both
00:28:21.400 in Rome
00:28:22.840 gave
00:28:23.660 their life
00:28:24.220 shed their
00:28:24.680 blood
00:28:25.060 in Rome
00:28:25.660 and so
00:28:26.420 they
00:28:27.040 sanctified
00:28:28.880 Rome
00:28:29.660 with their
00:28:31.700 martyrdom
00:28:32.400 for all
00:28:34.480 time
00:28:34.860 therefore
00:28:35.260 Rome
00:28:36.060 became
00:28:37.460 by divine
00:28:38.820 providence
00:28:39.360 of course
00:28:39.880 by divine
00:28:40.620 counsel
00:28:42.260 the seat
00:28:43.600 the seat
00:28:43.620 of Peter
00:28:44.560 and his
00:28:45.100 successors
00:28:45.760 the popes
00:28:46.500 the Roman
00:28:46.960 pontiffs
00:28:47.620 the visible
00:28:49.500 center of
00:28:50.220 the Catholic
00:28:50.960 Church
00:28:51.480 and this
00:28:52.920 city
00:28:54.540 which was
00:28:56.180 even a kind
00:28:57.720 of spiritual
00:28:58.600 Babylon
00:28:59.180 where was
00:29:01.060 the center
00:29:01.640 of the
00:29:02.040 sin
00:29:02.380 at that
00:29:02.720 time
00:29:03.000 of idolatry
00:29:03.840 and so
00:29:04.200 on
00:29:04.400 became
00:29:05.560 the center
00:29:06.880 of
00:29:08.060 Christianity
00:29:09.920 but
00:29:10.780 in the
00:29:11.880 beginning
00:29:12.260 sanctified
00:29:13.280 with the
00:29:13.940 blood
00:29:14.280 of martyrdom
00:29:15.120 of the
00:29:16.020 two
00:29:16.320 apostles
00:29:17.060 the greatest
00:29:18.680 apostles
00:29:19.180 Peter and
00:29:19.780 Paul
00:29:20.380 and therefore
00:29:21.120 the Romans
00:29:21.600 considered them
00:29:22.460 both
00:29:22.900 like
00:29:23.620 parents
00:29:24.380 spiritual
00:29:24.740 parents
00:29:25.400 of Rome
00:29:25.940 and then
00:29:27.720 of course
00:29:28.160 the famous
00:29:28.760 first
00:29:30.660 martyrs
00:29:31.740 of Rome
00:29:32.500 under Nero
00:29:33.360 the emperor
00:29:34.060 who were
00:29:35.700 more or less
00:29:37.340 in the same
00:29:37.860 time of the
00:29:38.540 martyrdom
00:29:39.320 of Peter
00:29:39.860 and Paul
00:29:40.440 the first
00:29:41.680 Roman
00:29:42.260 martyrs
00:29:43.760 they were
00:29:44.520 cruelly
00:29:45.300 martyred
00:29:45.860 as we know
00:29:46.900 even from
00:29:48.080 the pagan
00:29:48.660 historians
00:29:49.600 they were
00:29:50.800 bound
00:29:51.180 on trees
00:29:52.860 and they were
00:29:53.480 burning
00:29:54.080 like fire
00:29:55.440 in the
00:29:57.720 park
00:29:58.980 of Nero
00:29:59.640 where is
00:30:00.740 now
00:30:01.160 the city
00:30:01.780 of Vatican
00:30:02.360 City
00:30:02.920 there
00:30:03.540 was
00:30:04.800 martyrs
00:30:06.200 and Peter
00:30:06.680 and they
00:30:07.160 were also
00:30:07.940 martyred
00:30:08.900 cruelly
00:30:09.440 the first
00:30:10.160 Christians
00:30:11.620 in Rome
00:30:12.260 and then
00:30:14.120 the other
00:30:14.600 famous
00:30:16.460 martyr
00:30:16.820 which remains
00:30:18.020 for all
00:30:18.920 times
00:30:19.400 a luminous
00:30:21.280 example
00:30:21.940 is St.
00:30:23.060 Ignatius
00:30:23.720 of Antioch
00:30:24.660 bishop
00:30:25.420 and martyr
00:30:25.980 who was
00:30:27.260 bishop
00:30:27.620 already
00:30:28.120 in the
00:30:28.500 first
00:30:28.760 century
00:30:29.260 and he
00:30:31.220 became
00:30:31.980 a famous
00:30:32.880 martyr
00:30:33.300 in his
00:30:34.300 old age
00:30:35.080 86
00:30:35.680 he was
00:30:37.300 brought to
00:30:38.100 Rome
00:30:38.420 and given
00:30:40.020 to the
00:30:41.220 beasts
00:30:41.740 and was
00:30:44.100 so
00:30:45.140 martyred
00:30:46.160 being
00:30:47.480 eaten
00:30:48.000 literally
00:30:49.420 by the
00:30:50.180 lions
00:30:51.340 and other
00:30:51.920 beasts
00:30:53.340 and he
00:30:54.040 had known
00:30:54.480 it
00:30:54.760 so he
00:30:55.240 consciously
00:30:55.760 accepted
00:30:56.420 it
00:30:56.780 and he
00:30:57.480 desired
00:30:58.060 to be
00:30:58.500 a martyr
00:30:58.960 only then
00:30:59.800 I will
00:31:00.360 the most
00:31:01.260 closest
00:31:01.720 united
00:31:02.320 to my
00:31:03.140 Lord
00:31:03.500 Jesus
00:31:03.780 Christ
00:31:04.400 when I
00:31:05.480 will shed
00:31:05.980 my blood
00:31:06.580 for him
00:31:07.200 then only
00:31:08.700 I will
00:31:09.420 be
00:31:09.960 the closest
00:31:10.800 possible
00:31:11.540 way
00:31:12.360 united
00:31:13.160 to my
00:31:13.960 Lord
00:31:14.360 Jesus
00:31:14.900 Christ
00:31:15.440 and he
00:31:15.940 was burning
00:31:17.240 desiring
00:31:18.440 in his
00:31:19.280 heart
00:31:19.660 a fire
00:31:20.300 to be a
00:31:22.580 martyr
00:31:22.900 to be
00:31:23.820 united
00:31:24.280 with the
00:31:25.240 sacrifice
00:31:25.660 of love
00:31:26.380 even he
00:31:27.240 said I
00:31:27.600 want to
00:31:28.000 be
00:31:28.280 the bread
00:31:30.500 of God
00:31:31.120 martyrdom
00:31:32.460 eaten
00:31:33.480 by the
00:31:34.140 teeth
00:31:34.520 of the
00:31:35.240 of the
00:31:35.740 beasts
00:31:36.300 so I
00:31:37.160 will be
00:31:37.760 the wheat
00:31:39.560 the pure
00:31:41.280 wheat
00:31:41.560 to be a
00:31:42.020 bread
00:31:42.360 then
00:31:42.720 of God
00:31:44.000 and such
00:31:45.640 a deep
00:31:46.300 spirituality
00:31:47.200 of the
00:31:48.040 meaning
00:31:48.380 of
00:31:48.800 Christian
00:31:49.540 martyrdom
00:31:50.200 he left
00:31:51.320 for us
00:31:51.880 so I
00:31:52.880 think
00:31:53.220 these are
00:31:53.960 the main
00:31:56.080 and more
00:31:57.280 important
00:31:57.940 figures
00:31:58.560 in Christian
00:32:00.120 history
00:32:00.680 of
00:32:01.400 martyrdom
00:32:02.020 they are
00:32:02.740 of course
00:32:03.220 continuously
00:32:04.860 and will
00:32:06.340 be until
00:32:07.080 the end
00:32:07.680 of the
00:32:08.000 time
00:32:08.440 martyrs
00:32:09.540 and great
00:32:10.620 martyrs
00:32:11.160 we had
00:32:11.500 also in
00:32:12.380 some
00:32:12.800 specific
00:32:13.320 figures
00:32:13.780 but I
00:32:14.800 think
00:32:15.060 these
00:32:15.440 first
00:32:16.120 martyrs
00:32:17.200 Old
00:32:17.460 Testament
00:32:17.860 in the
00:32:18.340 first
00:32:18.580 century
00:32:19.060 they
00:32:19.700 remain
00:32:20.220 the
00:32:21.000 most
00:32:21.280 luminous
00:32:21.920 examples
00:32:22.540 for all
00:32:23.360 the time
00:32:23.820 one of
00:32:24.280 the things
00:32:24.760 in your
00:32:25.440 book that
00:32:25.880 was a
00:32:26.280 surprise
00:32:26.580 to me
00:32:26.960 I
00:32:27.400 read about
00:32:28.640 three
00:32:29.500 types of
00:32:30.040 martyrdom
00:32:30.460 now I
00:32:31.180 think many
00:32:31.860 Catholics
00:32:32.240 have heard
00:32:32.720 of
00:32:32.980 martyrdom
00:32:33.580 red or
00:32:34.280 white
00:32:34.780 but there's
00:32:36.040 also green
00:32:36.940 why don't you
00:32:37.560 explain to us
00:32:38.140 about the
00:32:38.640 three types
00:32:39.180 of martyrdom
00:32:39.740 well the
00:32:40.340 first is evident
00:32:41.220 the blood
00:32:42.220 the martyrdom
00:32:43.520 of blood
00:32:44.200 to shedding
00:32:44.840 literally
00:32:47.460 your blood
00:32:48.540 for Christ
00:32:49.340 this is the
00:32:51.300 common meaning
00:32:51.960 of martyrdom
00:32:52.780 the second
00:32:54.900 the second
00:32:54.920 is the
00:32:55.260 white
00:32:55.500 martyrdom
00:32:56.080 it is
00:32:56.820 the life
00:32:59.320 of
00:33:00.440 total
00:33:01.880 consecration
00:33:03.220 to God
00:33:04.000 all your
00:33:05.220 life
00:33:05.640 to make
00:33:06.280 through the
00:33:07.120 vows
00:33:07.540 specifically
00:33:08.660 of
00:33:09.460 chastity
00:33:10.680 obedience
00:33:12.380 and poverty
00:33:13.620 the religious
00:33:14.780 vows
00:33:15.280 but basically
00:33:17.500 the chastity
00:33:18.460 so the
00:33:19.520 virginity
00:33:20.160 it is the
00:33:21.080 first in the
00:33:21.820 church
00:33:22.180 when
00:33:22.840 the time
00:33:24.300 of martyrdom
00:33:25.240 ended
00:33:26.140 we know
00:33:26.720 that the
00:33:27.060 first three
00:33:27.540 centuries
00:33:27.940 the church
00:33:28.540 was the
00:33:28.960 church of
00:33:29.340 martyrs
00:33:30.320 three centuries
00:33:31.320 the pagan
00:33:31.920 empire
00:33:33.480 persecuted
00:33:34.360 Christians
00:33:35.460 until
00:33:36.300 Constantine
00:33:37.100 and then
00:33:38.740 when there
00:33:39.260 came the
00:33:39.660 peace
00:33:40.260 of the
00:33:41.160 church
00:33:41.420 there were
00:33:41.820 no more
00:33:42.460 martyrs
00:33:43.200 the Holy
00:33:44.140 Spirit
00:33:44.620 raised
00:33:46.460 in the
00:33:46.960 church
00:33:47.340 a new
00:33:49.040 form of
00:33:49.560 life
00:33:49.920 a total
00:33:51.340 radical
00:33:51.960 consecration
00:33:53.660 giving
00:33:54.540 your life
00:33:55.360 as a
00:33:55.680 sacrifice
00:33:56.160 not as
00:33:56.860 a bloody
00:33:57.220 but as
00:33:57.640 a spiritual
00:33:58.340 sacrifice
00:33:59.060 in imitation
00:34:00.020 of the
00:34:00.960 martyrdom
00:34:01.460 it was
00:34:01.940 the
00:34:02.280 religious
00:34:03.340 monastic
00:34:03.980 life
00:34:04.460 first in
00:34:04.960 the desert
00:34:05.520 in Egypt
00:34:06.440 the desert
00:34:06.940 fathers
00:34:07.340 and then
00:34:08.320 the other
00:34:08.840 monastic
00:34:09.880 life
00:34:10.900 flourished
00:34:11.780 and for
00:34:12.820 the women
00:34:13.220 the consecrated
00:34:14.800 virgins
00:34:15.280 living in
00:34:16.020 the world
00:34:16.420 already in
00:34:17.180 the first
00:34:17.480 centuries
00:34:17.960 because
00:34:18.860 martyrdom
00:34:19.900 it's the
00:34:20.640 sacrifice
00:34:21.060 of love
00:34:21.820 this is
00:34:23.220 the
00:34:23.480 essence
00:34:23.880 of
00:34:24.360 martyrdom
00:34:24.920 in union
00:34:26.120 with Jesus
00:34:26.620 Christ
00:34:27.140 to participate
00:34:28.820 to give
00:34:30.320 completely
00:34:31.380 your life
00:34:32.080 to Christ
00:34:32.640 this is
00:34:33.080 martyrdom
00:34:33.620 and the
00:34:34.600 same is
00:34:35.360 the religious
00:34:36.720 life
00:34:37.520 the virginity
00:34:38.640 the consecrated
00:34:39.560 virginity
00:34:40.420 that you
00:34:41.480 give
00:34:41.760 totally
00:34:42.540 your life
00:34:44.160 completely
00:34:45.320 without
00:34:46.260 reserves
00:34:46.940 as a
00:34:48.560 spiritual
00:34:49.540 fragrance
00:34:51.100 sacrifice
00:34:51.940 to the
00:34:52.780 Lord
00:34:53.120 through a
00:34:54.680 life of
00:34:55.340 purity
00:34:55.880 of
00:34:56.140 chastity
00:34:56.660 with God's
00:34:57.220 grace
00:34:57.460 of course
00:34:57.960 and you
00:34:58.720 cannot
00:34:59.360 live
00:34:59.860 this
00:35:00.740 white
00:35:01.020 martyrdom
00:35:01.640 the
00:35:01.840 total
00:35:03.860 consecration
00:35:04.700 to God
00:35:05.200 in religious
00:35:06.140 life
00:35:06.680 you cannot
00:35:07.680 live it
00:35:08.300 unless you
00:35:09.860 have this
00:35:10.560 fire of
00:35:12.060 love in
00:35:12.760 your soul
00:35:13.480 so
00:35:14.800 and this
00:35:16.600 is the
00:35:16.880 connection
00:35:17.540 with
00:35:18.040 martyrdom
00:35:18.680 the
00:35:18.900 complete
00:35:19.940 surrender
00:35:21.160 and
00:35:21.440 consecration
00:35:22.220 to the
00:35:22.820 Lord
00:35:23.080 of all
00:35:23.620 your
00:35:23.760 life
00:35:24.200 moved
00:35:25.300 by the
00:35:26.280 fire of
00:35:27.000 love in
00:35:27.520 your soul
00:35:28.200 for Jesus
00:35:29.080 Christ
00:35:29.700 and to
00:35:30.820 be one
00:35:31.540 in
00:35:32.300 with his
00:35:33.020 sacrifice
00:35:33.900 the
00:35:35.660 other
00:35:36.020 the
00:35:36.420 green
00:35:36.800 it
00:35:38.160 is
00:35:38.680 another
00:35:39.940 type
00:35:40.460 it's
00:35:41.240 not
00:35:41.380 people
00:35:41.720 living
00:35:42.020 in
00:35:42.160 the
00:35:42.260 world
00:35:42.600 who
00:35:43.380 let us
00:35:45.360 say
00:35:45.500 even
00:35:45.840 in
00:35:47.220 marriage
00:35:47.740 who
00:35:48.040 did
00:35:48.360 not
00:35:48.660 this
00:35:49.200 total
00:35:50.220 sacrifice
00:35:50.660 of all
00:35:52.100 their
00:35:52.260 life
00:35:52.540 in
00:35:52.900 chastity
00:35:53.580 and
00:35:55.100 virginity
00:35:55.860 but
00:35:56.300 they
00:35:57.260 accept
00:35:58.480 the
00:35:58.720 acceptance
00:35:59.260 of the
00:36:00.060 crosses
00:36:00.460 even
00:36:01.200 of
00:36:01.580 very
00:36:02.900 big
00:36:05.240 sacrifices
00:36:06.000 in
00:36:07.260 your
00:36:07.440 life
00:36:07.920 and
00:36:08.740 there
00:36:08.980 are
00:36:09.420 let us
00:36:11.140 say
00:36:11.700 the
00:36:12.140 sick
00:36:13.220 people
00:36:13.660 who
00:36:14.940 really
00:36:15.420 consciously
00:36:16.140 unite
00:36:16.920 their
00:36:17.220 sacrifice
00:36:18.080 with the
00:36:18.920 sacrifice
00:36:19.320 of
00:36:19.940 Jesus
00:36:20.340 Christ
00:36:21.000 some
00:36:21.940 of
00:36:22.120 them
00:36:22.380 in
00:36:23.500 the
00:36:23.660 spirit
00:36:23.980 of
00:36:24.360 repentance
00:36:26.120 of
00:36:26.560 in
00:36:26.680 the
00:36:26.840 spirit
00:36:27.080 of
00:36:27.300 reparation
00:36:28.120 atonement
00:36:29.240 and
00:36:30.400 so
00:36:30.980 this
00:36:31.360 is
00:36:31.560 also
00:36:31.940 we
00:36:32.200 could
00:36:32.620 say
00:36:33.020 a
00:36:33.260 kind
00:36:33.560 of
00:36:33.980 martyrdom
00:36:35.400 in
00:36:36.800 the
00:36:37.940 so-called
00:36:38.620 green
00:36:40.380 martyrdom
00:36:41.100 as in
00:36:41.920 some
00:36:42.240 tradition
00:36:43.080 it's
00:36:44.060 called
00:36:44.480 but
00:36:45.840 this
00:36:46.200 all
00:36:46.580 is
00:36:46.800 united
00:36:47.300 with
00:36:47.780 one
00:36:48.220 element
00:36:49.000 that
00:36:49.720 is
00:36:49.940 the
00:36:50.260 fire
00:36:51.460 of
00:36:51.840 love
00:36:52.320 burning
00:36:53.060 in
00:36:53.640 the
00:36:54.240 soul
00:36:54.700 of
00:36:55.820 which
00:36:56.740 desires
00:36:57.400 to
00:36:57.860 be
00:36:58.200 in
00:36:59.580 his
00:36:59.940 situation
00:37:00.800 let us
00:37:01.740 say
00:37:01.860 bloody
00:37:02.240 consecrated
00:37:03.600 virgin
00:37:03.960 sufferings
00:37:05.220 to be

00:37:06.640 most
00:37:07.180 closely
00:37:07.700 to
00:37:08.340 our
00:37:08.540 Lord
00:37:08.760 Jesus
00:37:08.960 Christ
00:37:09.560 who
00:37:09.840 is
00:37:10.180 the
00:37:10.540 source
00:37:11.500 of
00:37:12.040 martyrs
00:37:12.780 beautiful
00:37:13.400 as you

00:37:15.000 of
00:37:15.440 green
00:37:15.700 martyrdom
00:37:16.160 I
00:37:16.300 thought
00:37:16.580 right
00:37:16.820 away
00:37:17.120 of
00:37:17.320 Louis

00:37:26.680 religious
00:37:27.100 life
00:37:27.600 even
00:37:28.920 though
00:37:29.140 there's
00:37:29.480 a lot
00:37:29.800 of
00:37:29.880 joy
00:37:30.040 in
00:37:30.180 that
00:37:30.280 there's
00:37:30.480 a lot
00:37:30.640 of
00:37:30.760 suffering
00:37:31.040 too
00:37:31.280 and
00:37:31.420 then
00:37:31.560 even
00:37:31.860 to
00:37:32.440 lose
00:37:32.840 his
00:37:33.720 own
00:37:34.020 sense
00:37:35.000 of
00:37:35.140 things
00:37:35.340 in
00:37:35.460 the
00:37:35.560 end
00:37:35.800 but
00:37:36.280 all
00:37:36.700 knowingly
00:37:37.160 giving
00:37:37.400 himself
00:37:37.880 beautiful
00:37:38.580 last
00:37:40.880 question
00:37:41.280 for you
00:37:41.660 we had
00:37:41.980 the
00:37:42.620 book
00:37:43.160 talks
00:37:43.620 about
00:37:44.100 Christ
00:37:45.280 as
00:37:45.580 the
00:37:45.760 origin
00:37:46.240 and
00:37:46.680 the
00:37:46.860 divine
00:37:47.260 gift
00:37:47.600 of
00:37:47.840 martyrdom
00:37:48.500 if
00:37:50.220 you
00:37:50.320 can
00:37:50.440 maybe
00:37:50.640 you
00:37:50.920 touched
00:37:51.340 on
00:37:51.540 it
00:37:51.660 earlier
00:37:51.900 but
00:37:52.100 maybe
00:37:52.320 go
00:37:52.480 a
00:37:52.580 little
00:37:52.660 bit
00:37:52.800 more
00:37:52.980 into
00:37:53.160 that
00:37:53.360 for
00:37:53.580 yes
00:37:54.180 because
00:37:56.500 the
00:37:57.480 only
00:37:57.860 true
00:37:58.440 sacrifice
00:38:00.340 of
00:38:00.940 love
00:38:01.420 of
00:38:03.000 supernatural
00:38:03.620 love
00:38:04.180 is
00:38:04.740 the
00:38:05.980 sacrifice
00:38:06.460 of
00:38:06.800 our
00:38:07.020 Lord
00:38:07.280 on
00:38:07.500 the
00:38:07.660 cross
00:38:08.040 and
00:38:09.660 because
00:38:10.200 he
00:38:10.720 is
00:38:13.000 in
00:38:13.140 the
00:38:13.300 same
00:38:13.540 time
00:38:14.100 true
00:38:15.240 God
00:38:15.720 and
00:38:16.080 true
00:38:16.360 man
00:38:16.720 so
00:38:17.040 but
00:38:17.340 he
00:38:17.520 is
00:38:17.700 a
00:38:17.820 divine
00:38:18.100 person
00:38:18.620 so
00:38:19.840 he
00:38:20.340 gave
00:38:20.700 his
00:38:20.960 love
00:38:21.320 the
00:38:22.380 sacrifice
00:38:23.020 of
00:38:23.620 fragrance
00:38:24.240 to
00:38:24.640 the
00:38:24.840 father
00:38:25.160 in
00:38:26.400 his
00:38:26.740 humanity
00:38:27.320 he
00:38:27.560 offered
00:38:27.900 his
00:38:28.260 humanity
00:38:28.860 completely
00:38:30.860 as a
00:38:31.760 gift
00:38:32.140 to
00:38:32.780 the
00:38:32.960 father
00:38:33.260 expiation
00:38:34.480 but
00:38:35.860 moved
00:38:37.220 by
00:38:38.280 unspeakable
00:38:39.920 love
00:38:40.480 because
00:38:41.220 therefore
00:38:42.080 the value
00:38:43.320 of
00:38:43.760 his
00:38:44.200 sacrifice
00:38:44.700 is
00:38:45.280 infinite
00:38:46.880 really
00:38:47.820 infinite
00:38:48.340 because
00:38:49.420 he
00:38:50.200 was a
00:38:50.640 divine
00:38:51.100 person
00:38:51.920 and so
00:38:53.140 this
00:38:53.720 sacrifice
00:38:54.240 is
00:38:54.940 made
00:38:56.020 by
00:38:56.260 a
00:38:56.440 divine
00:38:56.760 person
00:38:57.540 in
00:38:58.160 his
00:38:58.640 humanity
00:38:59.060 of
00:38:59.340 course
00:38:59.560 but
00:38:59.820 by
00:39:00.060 divine
00:39:00.480 person
00:39:00.880 the
00:39:01.080 second
00:39:01.360 person
00:39:01.720 of
00:39:01.900 holy
00:39:02.120 trinity
00:39:02.620 and
00:39:03.320 therefore
00:39:03.740 the
00:39:04.740 sacrifice
00:39:05.140 on the
00:39:05.640 cross
00:39:06.000 has
00:39:06.640 infinite
00:39:08.260 value
00:39:09.640 and
00:39:10.180 infinite
00:39:11.360 spiritual
00:39:14.120 power
00:39:15.160 to redeem
00:39:16.860 to
00:39:18.740 atone
00:39:19.240 and so
00:39:20.820 the
00:39:21.980 lord
00:39:22.340 inviting
00:39:23.320 all the
00:39:23.740 christians
00:39:24.380 to take
00:39:25.660 their
00:39:27.280 cross
00:39:27.760 and to
00:39:28.140 follow
00:39:28.440 him
00:39:28.780 so
00:39:29.620 in this
00:39:31.040 sense
00:39:31.300 inviting
00:39:32.020 all the
00:39:32.420 christians
00:39:32.800 to look
00:39:33.300 to watch
00:39:33.980 on the
00:39:34.280 cross
00:39:34.560 to be
00:39:34.980 united
00:39:35.360 with him
00:39:35.900 on the
00:39:36.160 cross
00:39:36.500 all the
00:39:37.900 life
00:39:38.280 of a
00:39:38.600 christian
00:39:39.120 and
00:39:40.340 therefore
00:39:43.020 he says
00:39:44.640 we have
00:39:46.240 to give
00:39:46.780 rather
00:39:48.520 our
00:39:48.800 life
00:39:49.360 rather
00:39:50.820 than
00:39:51.220 to commit
00:39:51.820 a sin
00:39:52.320 this is
00:39:54.080 also
00:39:54.460 the
00:39:54.780 teaching
00:39:55.340 of our
00:39:55.820 lord
00:39:56.080 jesus
00:39:56.380 christ
00:39:56.880 and
00:39:58.740 therefore
00:39:59.700 we
00:40:01.180 must be
00:40:01.940 always
00:40:02.880 united
00:40:05.000 spiritually
00:40:05.780 to the
00:40:06.300 sacrifice
00:40:06.760 of our
00:40:07.360 lord
00:40:07.580 on the
00:40:07.920 cross
00:40:08.260 and therefore
00:40:09.220 he left
00:40:10.020 for us
00:40:11.000 in the
00:40:11.420 church
00:40:11.820 his
00:40:12.500 sacrifice
00:40:13.240 on the
00:40:13.620 cross
00:40:13.840 really
00:40:14.500 present
00:40:15.180 in every
00:40:16.320 holy
00:40:16.700 mass
00:40:17.140 there is
00:40:18.880 the real
00:40:19.700 presence
00:40:20.760 of this
00:40:21.580 Golgotha
00:40:22.460 sacrifice
00:40:23.400 the real
00:40:24.040 presence
00:40:24.620 of the
00:40:26.100 act
00:40:28.100 the
00:40:28.960 infinite
00:40:29.640 act
00:40:30.080 of
00:40:30.440 redeeming
00:40:31.020 love
00:40:31.520 and
00:40:32.660 glorification
00:40:34.060 of
00:40:34.420 god
00:40:35.160 the
00:40:35.360 father
00:40:35.780 it's
00:40:36.440 the same
00:40:36.960 act
00:40:38.200 inseparably
00:40:39.380 glorification
00:40:40.940 of the
00:40:41.400 father
00:40:41.780 and the
00:40:43.600 atonement
00:40:44.560 saving
00:40:45.500 sacrifice
00:40:46.080 for
00:40:46.680 sinful
00:40:47.460 humanity
00:40:48.180 redeeming
00:40:49.400 sacrifice
00:40:50.140 and so
00:40:51.000 this is
00:40:51.780 continuously
00:40:52.640 present in
00:40:53.620 all the
00:40:54.160 altars
00:40:54.860 where it
00:40:56.000 celebrated
00:40:56.460 holy mass
00:40:57.300 and so
00:40:58.360 we go
00:40:59.120 to the
00:40:59.580 holy mass
00:41:00.220 when we
00:41:00.780 need
00:41:01.140 strength
00:41:01.980 in our
00:41:03.220 sufferings
00:41:04.480 when we
00:41:05.900 need
00:41:06.240 strength
00:41:06.780 to be
00:41:07.180 confessors
00:41:07.900 we go
00:41:08.740 to the
00:41:09.040 holy mass
00:41:09.500 to this
00:41:10.000 concrete
00:41:10.640 source
00:41:11.480 there is
00:41:12.280 the source
00:41:12.920 and receive
00:41:14.200 the body
00:41:15.760 and blood
00:41:16.380 of christ
00:41:17.500 which body
00:41:18.580 and blood
00:41:19.060 immolated
00:41:20.280 the
00:41:22.020 hot blood
00:41:23.240 in the
00:41:24.280 sacrifice of
00:41:25.000 the mass
00:41:25.380 during the
00:41:25.900 holy
00:41:26.060 consecration
00:41:26.800 there is
00:41:27.660 again
00:41:28.340 the body
00:41:29.180 of christ
00:41:29.920 offered
00:41:30.500 immolated
00:41:31.480 and the
00:41:32.480 blood
00:41:32.760 shed
00:41:33.140 as the
00:41:33.680 words
00:41:34.060 of
00:41:35.100 consecration
00:41:35.960 speak
00:41:38.640 it
00:41:39.000 and so
00:41:40.040 and what
00:41:40.840 is a
00:41:41.160 sacrament
00:41:41.620 a sacrament
00:41:43.100 is
00:41:43.700 that
00:41:44.520 through
00:41:45.000 visible
00:41:46.820 signs
00:41:47.460 bread and
00:41:48.340 wine
00:41:48.620 and the
00:41:49.660 word
00:41:49.960 these
00:41:51.220 visible
00:41:51.660 signs
00:41:52.220 and the
00:41:52.580 word
00:41:52.820 are
00:41:53.360 signifying
00:41:55.540 and realizing
00:41:56.680 what they
00:41:57.360 are signifying
00:41:58.340 it is
00:41:59.040 the sacrifice
00:41:59.940 of the
00:42:00.380 cross
00:42:00.740 is realized
00:42:01.840 spiritually
00:42:03.560 present
00:42:04.720 in its
00:42:05.980 substance
00:42:06.900 not in
00:42:07.480 the historical
00:42:08.060 context
00:42:09.380 which are
00:42:10.180 secondary
00:42:12.660 elements
00:42:13.340 let us say
00:42:14.020 the place
00:42:14.520 in Jerusalem
00:42:15.140 or the
00:42:15.700 soldiers
00:42:16.480 and so
00:42:17.100 is secondary
00:42:18.220 but the
00:42:19.380 substance
00:42:19.740 of the
00:42:20.180 sacrifice
00:42:20.600 is present
00:42:22.280 in every
00:42:23.580 time in
00:42:24.180 the holy
00:42:24.460 mass
00:42:24.720 and so
00:42:25.080 how happy
00:42:25.740 we are
00:42:26.960 Catholics
00:42:27.480 that we
00:42:28.100 have
00:42:28.380 the access
00:42:29.740 to the
00:42:30.960 direct
00:42:31.420 source
00:42:32.060 of
00:42:33.740 the
00:42:34.540 sacrifice
00:42:34.960 of love
00:42:35.680 the
00:42:37.240 direct
00:42:37.680 source
00:42:38.280 to be
00:42:39.660 confessors
00:42:40.300 to be
00:42:40.660 faithful to
00:42:41.200 Jesus Christ
00:42:42.000 in our
00:42:42.900 life
00:42:43.360 I guess
00:42:44.020 we're
00:42:44.380 allowed
00:42:45.160 to
00:42:45.680 like
00:42:47.560 Saint
00:42:48.020 Ignatius
00:42:48.520 did
00:42:48.820 want
00:42:50.000 to be
00:42:50.840 martyrs
00:42:51.740 well maybe
00:42:52.140 even to
00:42:52.660 blood
00:42:52.940 but
00:42:53.240 but also
00:42:54.160 in that
00:42:54.500 sense
00:42:54.780 of
00:42:54.980 what I
00:42:56.240 hear you
00:42:56.700 describe
00:42:57.100 as sort
00:42:57.540 of a
00:42:57.940 martyrdom
00:42:59.100 as
00:42:59.600 a
00:43:00.740 consuming
00:43:01.340 love
00:43:02.480 for our
00:43:03.560 Lord
00:43:03.800 so that
00:43:04.160 it sort
00:43:04.640 of
00:43:04.760 overtakes
00:43:05.260 us
00:43:05.420 and we
00:43:05.640 sort
00:43:06.140 of
00:43:06.400 die
00:43:08.220 of love
00:43:08.700 if you
00:43:09.340 can speak
00:43:09.880 that way
00:43:10.420 and therefore
00:43:11.440 we have to
00:43:13.040 remember
00:43:13.440 also
00:43:13.980 that the
00:43:15.500 Lord said
00:43:16.020 unless
00:43:17.100 the grain
00:43:18.220 of wheat
00:43:19.000 is not
00:43:19.460 falling
00:43:19.880 into the
00:43:20.280 earth
00:43:20.680 and dying
00:43:21.860 it will
00:43:22.160 not
00:43:22.420 produce
00:43:23.160 fruits
00:43:23.860 and this
00:43:24.660 he spoke
00:43:25.100 of his
00:43:25.480 own
00:43:25.920 sacrifice
00:43:26.800 and also
00:43:29.040 signifying
00:43:29.960 our
00:43:30.360 sacrifices
00:43:31.100 when we
00:43:31.920 have to
00:43:32.420 to die
00:43:33.160 the martyrs
00:43:33.920 or in
00:43:34.380 a spiritual
00:43:34.860 way
00:43:35.260 to
00:43:36.140 to bear
00:43:37.120 fruits
00:43:37.520 and therefore
00:43:38.900 the time
00:43:39.520 of martyrs
00:43:40.380 God made
00:43:41.320 the most
00:43:42.000 fruitful
00:43:42.460 time
00:43:43.060 spiritual
00:43:43.880 of the
00:43:44.320 church
00:43:44.620 it's
00:43:44.960 edifying
00:43:45.540 it's
00:43:45.840 purifying
00:43:46.340 the church
00:43:46.980 and
00:43:48.340 in our
00:43:49.880 day
00:43:50.220 we have
00:43:50.580 not to
00:43:50.900 forget
00:43:51.280 also
00:43:51.640 the
00:43:51.920 current
00:43:52.600 time
00:43:53.420 the
00:43:53.800 martyrs
00:43:55.180 who are
00:43:55.940 in our
00:43:56.240 day
00:43:56.560 really
00:43:57.000 suffer
00:43:57.840 a bloody
00:43:58.300 martyrdom
00:43:59.500 we have
00:44:01.380 to mention
00:44:01.880 the
00:44:02.160 our
00:44:02.760 dear
00:44:03.080 brothers
00:44:03.380 and
00:44:03.680 sisters
00:44:04.000 in
00:44:04.300 Nigeria
00:44:04.740 who
00:44:05.900 are
00:44:06.260 really
00:44:07.560 suffering
00:44:09.920 a bloody
00:44:10.400 martyrdom
00:44:11.140 because
00:44:12.240 of
00:44:12.700 hatred
00:44:13.220 of
00:44:13.600 Christ
00:44:14.120 they are
00:44:15.160 the
00:44:15.340 target
00:44:15.720 and
00:44:16.840 unfortunately
00:44:17.400 they are
00:44:18.180 in some
00:44:18.540 way
00:44:18.700 forgotten
00:44:19.200 we have
00:44:20.200 to
00:44:20.500 remember
00:44:21.440 them
00:44:21.880 and to
00:44:22.600 speak
00:44:22.880 about
00:44:23.160 them
00:44:23.500 and
00:44:24.840 other
00:44:25.200 places
00:44:25.740 where
00:44:26.180 our
00:44:26.660 persecution
00:44:27.200 still
00:44:27.760 like
00:44:28.320 China
00:44:29.060 North
00:44:29.420 Korea
00:44:29.840 in
00:44:30.620 some
00:44:30.880 Arabic
00:44:31.200 countries
00:44:31.820 where
00:44:33.140 to be
00:44:34.660 a
00:44:34.820 Christian
00:44:35.220 or to
00:44:35.780 become
00:44:36.120 a
00:44:36.340 Christian
00:44:36.800 you
00:44:37.500 will
00:44:37.680 be
00:44:37.880 killed
00:44:38.240 especially
00:44:39.240 when a
00:44:39.880 Muslim
00:44:40.240 discovers
00:44:41.440 Jesus
00:44:41.800 Christ
00:44:42.240 as his
00:44:42.620 savior
00:44:42.920 and
00:44:43.720 becomes
00:44:44.060 a
00:44:44.240 Christian
00:44:44.520 he
00:44:44.780 will
00:44:45.000 be
00:44:45.200 killed
00:44:45.440 he
00:44:45.620 will
00:44:45.740 be
00:44:45.860 a
00:44:46.000 martyr
00:44:46.240 in
00:44:46.900 Islamic
00:44:47.340 countries
00:44:47.900 also
00:44:48.900 we
00:44:49.100 have
00:44:49.260 not
00:44:49.520 to
00:44:49.780 silence
00:44:50.300 this
00:44:50.760 to
00:44:51.220 be
00:44:51.380 honest
00:44:51.760 not
00:44:52.360 to
00:44:52.540 make
00:44:52.740 polemics
00:44:53.220 but
00:44:53.420 simply
00:44:53.740 say
00:44:54.060 this
00:44:54.340 is
00:44:54.500 the
00:44:54.640 reality
00:44:55.100 and
00:44:56.220 we
00:44:56.400 have
00:44:56.620 to
00:44:56.960 pray
00:44:58.960 for
00:44:59.300 these
00:44:59.620 brothers
00:44:59.960 and
00:45:00.260 sisters
00:45:00.600 and
00:45:00.900 to
00:45:01.040 ask
00:45:01.540 the
00:45:02.020 Lord
00:45:02.300 that
00:45:02.600 their
00:45:02.940 sacrifice
00:45:03.740 will
00:45:04.600 be
00:45:05.020 wearing
00:45:06.220 many
00:45:06.620 fruits
00:45:07.160 of
00:45:07.480 new
00:45:07.700 conversions
00:45:08.280 of
00:45:09.220 the
00:45:09.400 purification
00:45:10.000 of
00:45:10.320 the
00:45:10.500 church
00:45:11.020 again
00:45:11.920 we
00:45:13.440 can
00:45:13.640 also
00:45:13.880 mention
00:45:14.280 this
00:45:14.580 famous
00:45:14.960 example
00:45:15.500 of
00:45:15.900 the
00:45:16.480 Coptic
00:45:16.900 Christians
00:45:17.500 21
00:45:18.800 I
00:45:19.100 think
00:45:19.340 who
00:45:19.540 were
00:45:19.840 four or
00:45:22.040 five
00:45:22.220 years
00:45:22.420 ago
00:45:22.780 they
00:45:23.260 were
00:45:23.560 in
00:45:24.200 a
00:45:24.340 cruel
00:45:24.600 way
00:45:25.060 martyred
00:45:25.880 on
00:45:26.740 the
00:45:26.880 beach
00:45:27.260 in
00:45:28.420 Libya
00:45:28.860 simply
00:45:31.080 they
00:45:31.720 were
00:45:31.880 cutting
00:45:32.180 their
00:45:32.440 heads
00:45:32.720 like
00:45:33.220 sheeps
00:45:33.940 they
00:45:34.500 were
00:45:34.680 in
00:45:35.180 some
00:45:35.460 way
00:45:35.760 literally
00:45:37.020 giving
00:45:37.540 their
00:45:37.780 life
00:45:38.100 like
00:45:38.520 the
00:45:39.300 sheeps
00:45:39.700 like
00:45:40.160 the
00:45:40.960 lambs
00:45:41.920 and
00:45:42.780 even
00:45:43.180 though
00:45:43.380 they
00:45:43.560 were
00:45:43.900 not
00:45:44.620 Catholics
00:45:45.020 but
00:45:45.340 they
00:45:45.460 were
00:45:45.540 Coptic
00:45:46.000 Christians
00:45:46.600 nevertheless
00:45:47.480 they
00:45:48.380 were
00:45:48.520 true
00:45:48.760 martyrs
00:45:49.440 I
00:45:49.800 would
00:45:50.020 say
00:45:50.600 that
00:45:50.840 we
00:45:51.160 have
00:45:51.320 to
00:45:51.500 ask
00:45:51.780 the
00:45:51.960 Lord
00:45:52.200 every
00:45:52.640 one
00:45:52.840 of
00:45:53.020 us
00:45:53.340 from
00:45:53.960 the
00:45:54.160 Pope
00:45:54.460 to
00:45:55.260 the
00:45:55.640 most
00:45:57.520 the
00:45:58.100 last
00:45:58.320 faithful
00:45:58.780 I
00:45:59.040 think
00:45:59.240 that
00:45:59.800 we
00:46:00.040 will
00:46:00.320 be
00:46:00.700 confirmed
00:46:01.740 ever
00:46:02.680 every
00:46:03.040 day
00:46:03.380 until
00:46:04.640 death
00:46:05.300 that
00:46:06.960 we
00:46:07.600 may
00:46:07.880 confess
00:46:08.380 him
00:46:08.640 always
00:46:09.400 courageously
00:46:11.080 in
00:46:12.420 with
00:46:12.940 conviction
00:46:13.540 with
00:46:14.720 calm
00:46:15.780 sure
00:46:16.480 convicted
00:46:17.320 even
00:46:18.320 happily
00:46:18.940 confessing
00:46:20.500 our
00:46:20.740 Lord
00:46:21.040 Jesus
00:46:21.240 Christ
00:46:21.840 and
00:46:22.280 God's
00:46:23.100 law
00:46:23.720 at
00:46:24.220 least
00:46:24.500 we
00:46:24.740 must
00:46:25.120 invoke
00:46:25.760 that
00:46:26.120 the
00:46:26.300 Lord
00:46:26.580 Holy
00:46:27.020 Spirit
00:46:27.460 pour
00:46:28.300 out
00:46:28.820 again
00:46:29.480 in
00:46:29.920 the
00:46:30.080 church
00:46:30.520 the
00:46:31.120 spirit
00:46:31.580 of
00:46:31.860 martyrdom
00:46:32.560 to
00:46:32.860 the
00:46:33.000 Holy
00:46:33.140 Father
00:46:33.460 to
00:46:33.780 the
00:46:33.940 bishops
00:46:34.240 to
00:46:34.420 the
00:46:34.560 priest
00:46:34.860 to
00:46:35.540 the
00:46:35.680 youth
00:46:35.920 people
00:46:36.220 to
00:46:36.400 families
00:46:37.000 Bishop
00:46:37.660 Schneider
00:46:37.960 I
00:46:38.160 remember
00:46:38.640 back
00:46:39.220 in
00:46:39.520 I
00:46:39.840 think
00:46:40.020 it
00:46:40.100 was
00:46:40.220 2016
00:46:40.940 it
00:46:41.520 was
00:46:41.680 one
00:46:41.840 of
00:46:41.940 my
00:46:42.100 first
00:46:42.420 interviews
00:46:42.860 with
00:46:43.300 you
00:46:43.580 and
00:46:44.340 you
00:46:44.520 were
00:46:44.720 explaining
00:46:45.220 both
00:46:45.680 about
00:46:45.940 your
00:46:46.340 childhood
00:46:47.220 how
00:46:47.440 you
00:46:47.600 grew
00:46:48.040 up
00:46:48.300 but
00:46:48.920 also
00:46:49.200 the
00:46:49.440 crisis
00:46:49.860 that
00:46:50.220 we
00:46:50.360 were
00:46:50.540 experiencing
00:46:51.080 at
00:46:51.480 that
00:46:51.700 time
00:46:52.060 for
00:46:52.240 the
00:46:52.320 last
00:46:52.480 couple
00:46:52.680 years
00:46:53.000 in
00:46:53.140 the
00:46:53.280 church
00:46:53.620 with
00:46:53.800 the
00:46:53.960 Synod
00:46:54.240 extraordinary
00:46:54.820 Synod
00:46:55.360 and Synod
00:46:55.780 on the
00:46:55.980 family
00:46:56.340 but I
00:46:57.700 asked
00:46:58.180 you at
00:46:58.380 the
00:46:58.440 time
00:46:58.860 what
00:46:59.700 can
00:46:59.840 we
00:46:59.960 do
00:47:00.200 what
00:47:00.500 can
00:47:00.680 the
00:47:00.780 faithful
00:47:01.040 do
00:47:01.420 and
00:47:02.220 you
00:47:02.380 said
00:47:02.640 to
00:47:02.840 me
