Unity and diversity in the apostolate
I. Of all the achievements of life, only one is really needed: to get to Heaven. As long reach anything else must lose, and set aside everything that gets in the way, however valuable or attractive it may seem. The eternal salvation itself and the neighbor-is first. We can play with our salvation nor the neighbor: we have an obligation to avoid the dangers of offending the Lord and severe duty away next occasion of sin, for he who loves danger, it will fall (NIRS 3, 26 -27). Many times we must remove the obstacles that are not very important; faults more or less common, venial sins, but to keep in mind-that slow pace, and they can do stumble and even fall into more important.
II. All must help to strengthen our steps in the path that leads to Heaven: the pain and the joy, work and rest, success and failure ... At the end of our lives we find this single choice: Heaven (passing through purgatory if we cleanse) or hell, the place of unquenchable fire, of which the Lord spoke on many occasions. If hell has not a real entity, Christ would not have so clearly revealed its existence, and we have warned many times, saying yourselves vigilant! The existence of hell reserved for those who die in mortal sin, is already revealed in the Old Testament (Numbers 16, 30-33, Isaiah 33; NIRS 7, 18-19; Job 10, 20-21), and is a actually released by Jesus Christ (Matthew 25, 41). It is a truth of faith, constantly affirmed by the Magisterium of the Church (Benedict XII, Benedictus Deus). The Lord wants us to move for love, but wanted to speak out where it leads to sin so that we have one more reason we apart from it: the holy fear of God, fear of separating the Infinite Good, the True Love
III. Considering our last order must lead to faithfulness in little things each day, to beat us in Heaven with our daily tasks, and remove anything that is an obstacle in our path. Also lead us to the apostolate, to help those who are with us to find God. The first way to help others is to be aware of the consequences of our actions and omissions, never to be even remotely, scandal, occasion of stumbling to others. Let us go to the Blessed Virgin: iter to tutum!, Make us a sure way to get to Heaven! mility of knowing that alone will often stumble and wrong paths.
