The Golden Rule as a matter of justice, and God's providential inclusion of the unjust.
Homily for the Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, delivered (in the morning) in Our Lady Star of the Sea Church, Gladstone, Qld.
"Listen to this, you who trample on the needy and try to suppress the poor people of the country... The Lord swears it by the pride of Jacob, ‘Never will I forget a single thing you have done.’..." (cf. Am 8:4-7).
"Praise the Lord who lifts up the poor." (cf. Ps 113).
"My advice is that, first of all, there should be prayers offered for everyone – petitions, intercessions and thanksgiving – and especially for kings and others in authority, so that we may be able to live religious and reverent lives in peace and quiet. To do this is right, and will please God our saviour: he wants everyone to be saved..." (cf. 1 Tim 2:1-8).
"Jesus said to his disciples: ‘There was a rich man and he had a steward denounced to him for being wasteful with his property. He called for the man and said, “What is this I hear about you? Draw me up an account of your stewardship because you are not to be my steward any longer.”... ‘No servant can be the slave of two masters: he will either hate the first and love the second, or treat the first with respect and the second with scorn. You cannot be the slave both of God and of money.’" (cf. Lk 16:1-13).
