Father Csaba’s reflection on the gospel Tuesday 28 May 2019
Lot of people say it that Christ died in vain the world has not changed at all . See, two thousand years ago in one of the most developed country , belonging to the Roman Empire “ The Holy Land “ a controversial question in the middle of the day is solved by crucification . Who could list that over the last thousands of years , centuries how many controversial questions they tried to solve by violence , bloody wars and well in the past days during the election of the members of the EU parliament there was no bloodshed even though in every member country of the Eu the stakes were very high . Over the last few days governments fell here and there , longstanding reigning powers were eroded , meant their fall.
It was not in vain that after the passage of two thousand years , slowly, with bloody head , but we learnt from history and nowadays people are departing without murderous wars from power and pass onto others the presidential chairs ! I get on my knees with my heart filled with gratitude in front of God and give thanks to my Creator that He is leading mankind with strong hands towards wise maturity .
Arguments existed and will continue to exist , but it is great that everybody has the opportunity to present their views, their opinions -just as I am doing now are able to share these few thoughts-in the public media , can gather friends , companions , form a party and according to democratic rules of the game can get that power by which they realise their plans . In the recent elections groups, parties that started with lots of money but with an empty world of ideas , that were deeply rooted for decades lost . There were also such communities that started to become organised recently , but because they found the answers to the problems, fears of people living around them and they took on those bravely , that is why triumphed and society pays attention to their words .
Where did we start out from and where did we get to ….Certainly we have not reached our goals, nobody can put their feet up, because we have not reached God’s kingdom yet , but I believe that the direction is good and it is good to proceed with you in this direction !!
With gratitude and love .

The Word of God
Jesus said, 'Now I am going to him who sent me; yet none of you asks me, "Where are you going?" But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts. Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. And when he comes, he will prove the world wrong about sin and righteousness and judgement: about sin, because they do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will see me no longer; about judgement, because the ruler of this world has been condemned.'
John 16:5-11
