“I have so many bad things inside”. “It is better! Better!”

 

A)  The text of the speech by J.M.Bergoglio:

The Pope suggested to always think of this truth: «The Lord is waiting for me, the Lord wants me to open the door of my heart, because he is there waiting for me to come in». Without conditions. Of course, someone might say: «But, Father, no, no, I would want to do so, but I have so many bad things inside me». Clear, in this regard, the answer (of Bergoglio): «It’s better! Better! Because he is waiting for you, as you are, not as others people tell you how “to do”. You must be as you are. He loves you this way, to hug you, kiss you, forgive you»” (Homily, Casa Santa Marta, January 8, 2016)

 

B) References to Scriptures:

What should we say then? Should we remain in sin so that grace may be given the more fully? Out of the question! We have died to sin; how could we go on living in it?” (Rom 6:1-2)

That is why you must not allow sin to reign over your mortal bodies and make you obey their desires; or give any parts of your bodies over to sin to be used as instruments of evil. Instead, give yourselves to God, as people brought to life from the dead, and give every part of your bodies to God to be instruments of uprightness; and then sin will no longer have any power over you — you are living not under law, but under grace. What is the implication? That we are free to sin, now that we are not under law but under grace? Out of the question!” (Rom 6:12-15)

And what did you gain from living like that? Experiences of which you are now ashamed, for that sort of behaviour ends in death. But, now you are set free from sin and bound to the service of God, your gain will be sanctification and the end will be eternal life. For the wage paid by sin is death; the gift freely given by God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom 6:21-23)

 

C) Comment:

The things that Bergoglio says are absurd. This, in fact, St. Paul says: “Shall we continue in sin so that grace may abound? It is absurd!”

Bergoglio instead says the opposite: “ Have you many bad things inside? It’s better, is better! Because He (God the Father) is waiting for you, just as you are, not as they tell “you have to do”. “One must be as you are. He loves you so, to hug you, kiss you, forgive you“.

Who says what “must be done”, is Jesus along with Saint Paul! St. Paul says that inside us there must not be what is ugly, sin, because for these, “their fate is death“.

Bergoglio teaches to do the opposite of what every Christian saint must do.

Moreover, Bergoglio teaches the opposite of what is the teaching of the Father. In the parable of the prodigal son, the Father forgives His son after he, repented with sincerity of heart for the committed sins, decided to return to the Father because truly repented. If the Father would not have perceived the true feeling of repentance in His prodigal son and if He would have noticed that His son had wanted to go back just for convenience, He would not have accepted him but He would have driven him away.
Otherwise the Father would have done an injustice to the other son.

This is the true Love of God, Father Good and Fair.
