For honest agnostics

For honest agnostics: “The justice is not for this world: it is a proverb; because it is evident. It seems a reference to human aspirations: it have to be Justice. Also there are aspirations to not be annihilated, to get full happiness. The human nature hints at another life.

The process of reason, does not take to faith. The faith is a gift of God. A push to our will, that being alone, can not get the admission of a lot of implausible truths; the Lord gives the faith to whom looks for the truth with simplicity. “The God’s Will is that all men be saved, getting to the knowledge of truth” teach the Church.

The agnosticism does not accept the existence of motives for credibility: miracles, prophecy, marvelous answers to all the questions normal men do.

There is a comparison between the living of the believer in these answers, to walking on water; millions of persons from thousands of years have done it, and persons having all types of intelligence, education, culture.

It is not a process of the reason. It is a marvel that the Lord gives to the people of goodwill, who leave to be helped.

It is normal that there be Christians with problems and with gilts. The history of Church is full of it. But is clearly different what tells the Teaching of catholic Church about what have we to do, from what we in fact we, weak and with little information, are doing…

Each year there are hundreds of thousands of conversions to catholic Church, people who notes that push when see a Teresa of Calcuta, a Johan Paul II, or so many saints whose lives are Impressive ; this help the good will for receiving the gift of faith; it is frequent that would be the example, (men say it is “the best predicator”), more than all the process of the reason, which helps the push of heaven in our mind.

When one walks on water has few problems. The Teaching of church solves the answers for any question. What one understands is a splendid panorama.

When a journalist asked to Benedict 16, the first days of his pontificate: “What is the most important for knowing for a catholic”? Without time to think, he answered: “To know being loved by an omnipotent God”! He is our Father. “All things allowed by God can be for our good”. “OMNIA IN BONUM” tells saint Paul (The Holy spirit) and saint Josemaria taught to his sons to repeat this words frequently, and when we have a annoyance.

The help of the sacraments and the personal spiritual leading are the key of behavior. When a journalist asked to saint John Paul II, “which man can live entirely the exigencies of catholic Church” the papa answer “Of which man are we talking?

A one that don’t pray, who is without the help of the GRACE”?

The infinite compassion of our Father of heaven, consoles always us with the pardon of our debilities and errors.

We pray and have sorrow for the people that prefers to be alone, with theirs gilts, doubts, incertitude, hopeless and with enemies, insomnia, and bitterness.

We pray also for any one having moments of honesty and goodwill, for the grace can reach him.

Saint Josemaria Escriva used to say to whom tell having no faith, that “the faith receipt at baptism, would be under mountains of gilts” caused by the time without confession. When there is a confession, made as if would have faith, sorry for the made sins, the faith reappears, it comes back the seeing what one had saw, what one had believed. For this situation there is a long experience!

This decision WORTHWHILE, because the difference between the two types of life, in peace and interior delight, it is sufficient for making the recommended giant step: to do what would can to seem us a “comedy” of confession, but it will be a truly sacrament, if we want to do what Church asks: to be pardoned for having lived more or less far, from our Father of heaven.

The papa Benedict 16 has said interesting things about faith that are at Internet. (look there for: “Misericordia and Benedicto 16).

“Ask and you will receive” are also words of God and as says saint Thomas “there is nothing more truly than the Word of the Truth”. Ask faith!, because “to whom knock, it will get open”.

Com back! Remind the parable of the prodigal son! The father waited every day, to forgive him and cover him of kisses; and he is a figure of the God-Father.

“There is more feast at heaven for one coming back, than for 99 that had been more or less faithful”. These are also words of God. “There is nothing more true than the words of the Truth”, said saint Thomas in the sequence of Eucharist.

Motives of credibility :

Finishing, we must remind that hundreds of years before Christ, it had been written a thousand details of what will be His life, His Passion... there are also miracles, if one wants to believe them: the one of a beggar from Calanda, at the door of the Pilar of Zaragoza, to whom a leg has been amputated, and it came back with his olds scars, (it was his leg), is one of the most contusive and studied miracles.

Certificated by the real notary of the king Felip III (I think it was about 1560), among other notaries, and for long commented by Messori in his book: “El Milagro de Calanda resucita” (you can download it from Internet; it is worthwhile) An other well documented from fifteen centuries, is the one of candles ignited by themselves, every Lent day, at the chapel of Holy Tomb, of Jerusalem, in the full view of everyone, including photographs and television. The orthodox Community, proprietary of the temple, seems to have interest for keeping it less known, (?) but you can find it written in internet like “Milagro del fuego santo” and I suppose in English as “miracle of holy fire”
