Healing by Christ of the Man by the Pool is a Foretelling of Our Spiritual Life. It is an Important Lesson During the Lenten Season

Today’s Gospel is well known to many Christians.

John tells us about the healing by Christ of the man by the pool. The Church selects this scripture as a reminder that we are all cleaned and healed in the pool of water at our Baptism. Baptism can only be done once, and it is permanent. However, it has little value if we do not do something.

Hear what the Church teaches us on this day and during the Lenten Season.
