TRUE HUMANITY IS FAR BETTER THAN BEING BAD
T
he Ash Wednesday opened the Lenten Season which shall last for forty days until Palm Sunday which then begins the Holy Week. In this first Sunday of Lent, the Gospel reading taken from Luke 4:1-13 tells about Jesus being led by the Holy Spirit into the desert without eating food for forty days and He became hungry. No, it didn’t prove that Jesus is God if he In the Scriptures “forty days” is did not succumb to sin even if He was significant; the flood during Noah’s time, tempted! It rather proved that He was the Moses on Mt. Sinai crafting the Ten perfect model as a human person. In ordinary Commandments and here, Jesus’ temptation life experiences there can be moments that also recalls the 40 years of wandering we are tempted to corruption or we can be in the desert during the Exodus. But tempted when we are seduced to all these should not be taken SUNDAY literally as to the exact number REFLECTION indulge with illicit sexual relationships but when we since in the biblical times, “forty succeed by not being swayed to commit sin days and forty nights” should be does not prove in any way that we are God taken as an idiomatic expression which but rather prove that we are a good breed of means: “A long period of time” just like our human persons. When we do not sin, we own Filipino/Bikolano expression of “inabot ako nin syam-syam kahahalat” or “naglabà na become the kind of persons who were indeed created in the God’s image and likeness. In an liog ko kahahalat,” which both means: “I the sight of other humans, a person who is waited for a long time.” This is pertinent for upright becomes an object of respect and us Catholics since the forty days of Lent is admiration. When a person sins, a person also a long wait for Christ’s Resurrection— allows her/himself to be stripped of her/his the peak of Christians’ faith traditions. dignity as a human being. When a person “And when they were over (the 40 days) he was hungry. The devil said to Him . . .” (Lk sins, s/he abandons her/his true nature of being capable of loving . . . of being good. 4:2-3). Jesus, being hungry after not eating, Ang Diyos ay likas na mabuti, marangal, and who can be subject to the temptations of the devil prove that He is human. In the end at mapagmahal, kung kaya ang tao, na kawangis ng Diyos, ay likas ding mabuti, of this Sunday Gospel story we know that marangal, at mapagmahal. ang tao ay mas the devil did not succeed in tempting Jesus mabuti kaysa masama! The Lenten season and the devil departed from Jesus. What did is the perfect time to harness our very this prove? If Jesus, being tempted by the nature of being humans, humans who are devil, proved that He is human; did it prove that Jesus is God because He did not commit capable of loving like God. 4 ramon l. almoneda, phd-th sin even if He was tempted?

Domingo 2, Kwaresma, Taon C
“N
ahiling ninda an kamurawayan ni Jesus…” Sisay si Jesus? Ini an sentrong hapot sa ebanghelyo ni San Lukas. Si Herodes nariribong saiya. An mga tawo naghuhuna na sya si Juan Bautista o si Elias o saro sa mga propeta. Si Pedro LECTIO sana an nakatumbok kan DIVINA simbag, na sya si Kristo. Alagad, an Transpigurasyon iyo an pinaka-malinaw na kapahayagan kun sisay man nanggad si Jesus. Sisay si Jesus sa buhay ko?
“Tuguti kaming maggibo nin tulong payagpayag…” Marikas an nguso ni Pedro kisa kan saiyang isip. Imbes matulala sa pangyayari, tuminaram sya nin daing pagkasabot. Dai malinaw kun tàno buot nyang magtugdok nin tulong payag-payag. Tibaad habo nya si Jesus na maghilig huli ta may peligro syang padusahan. Buot nyang irayo si Jesus sa peligro. O tibaad man na naugma na sya duman, harayo sa kasibutan. Kasuarin pinili kong magdulag sa apostolado sa pagtago sa laog kan simbahan?
“Iyo ini an sakong Aki, an pinili ko; danguga nindo sya!” Uya na an simbag sa hapot, sisay si Jesus. Parehong tingog an nadagog kan si Jesus binunyagan. Alagad, digdi, kaulay mismo kan Dyos an mga disipulo. Tinataraman sinda na magdangog ki Jesus dapit sa aagihan nyang kasakitan asin sa maarabot man na kasakitan ninda sa buhay. Kadakul an magayon na dangugon asin basahon ngunyan na panahon. Kadaklan mga salang opinyon. Alagad, saro sana an dapat dangugon kan tunay na Kristyano. Pirang oras an itinatao ko arualdaw sa pagdangog ki Jesus? Sa pànong paagi? 4

fake news is just a delusional statement coming from the people who are not contented with their lives. It’s just that they don’t know the word contentment and that they don’t know how to justify their hoax words. How can I make the statement true? There are lots of way that can prove it correctly: watch TV news, listen to radio, or search on the internet if the news was legitimate or a fact.—Ally Presado Pado ****** fake news is very rampant in the social media nowadays. As someone who knows the truth, it is my responsibility to educate and not humiliate others. Being rude in correcting what’s wrong would only complicate the matter and it defeats the purpose of spreading truth to have information calibrated, which brings forth organization. For instance, if I see fake news on Facebook, what I do is I explain what is the truth and I paste links that support my truth for a wider perspective.—Gab Peñera ****** kaipuhan itama an anuman na saláng impormasyon—sa anuman na paagi.
