Humility and the Final Reckoning · Oct 15, 2026
from Making Friends With The Lord Jesus Hosted by Fr. Edwin
This spiritual reflection centers on passages from the Gospel of Luke, examining Jesus's criticisms of the Pharisees and lawyers for rejecting divine messengers and avoiding self-examination. The homily emphasizes the necessity of humility, urging believers to acknowledge their own shortcomings rather than harshly judging others or deflecting constructive feedback. Furthermore, the narrative touches on a final divine reckoning that ensures ultimate justice for earthly wrongs and unpunished crimes. Drawing on historical examples like St. Thomas Aquinas, the narrative highlights the importance of resisting temptation and remaining steadfast in one's faith. Ultimately, individuals are encouraged to direct their energy toward pious devotion, self-improvement, and service to others through God's grace.
