Importance of Proclaiming the Gospel

(Which quote speaks to you ?)

Matthew

(First Preaching in Galilee)

Quotes from Pope Francis in his Apostolic Exhortation "Evangelii Gaudium" (The Joy of the Gospel, 2013)

  • Matthew was one of the 12 original Apostles

  • Gospel was written between 60-65 AD (Before the Jerusalem Temple was destroyed in 70 AD.)

  • Gospel of Matthew was written for the Jewish people (Often condemning the Pharisees and Jewish Leaders, often showing Jesus fulfilling the Old Testament prophesies, Jewish terms often used)

  • Matthew used the imagery of the 'mountain', in significant moments in Jesus' life

4.12 Now when he heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew into Galilee;

4.13 and leaving Nazareth he went and dwelt in Caper'na-um by the sea, in the territory of Zeb'ulun and Naph'tali, 4.14 that what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: 4.15 "The land of Zeb'ulun and the land of Naph'tali, toward the sea, across the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles-- 4.16 the people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death light has dawned." 4.17 From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."4.12 Now when he heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew into Galilee;

4.13 and leaving Nazareth he went and dwelt in Caper'na-um by the sea, in the territory of Zeb'ulun and Naph'tali, 4.14 that what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: 4.15 "The land of Zeb'ulun and the land of Naph'tali, toward the sea, across the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles-- 4.16 the people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death light has dawned." 4.17 From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

  • Catholic schools, which always strive to join their work of education with the explicit proclamation of the Gospel, are a most valuable resource for the evangelization of culture (#134)

  • The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus (#1)

  • I invite all Christians, everywhere, at this very moment, to a renewed personal encounter with Jesus Christ, or at least an openness to letting him encounter them; I ask all of you to do this unfailingly each day. (#3)

  • God’s word is unpredictable in its power. The Gospel speaks of a seed which, once sown, grows by itself, even as the farmer sleeps (Mk 4:26-29). (#22)

  • At the same time, today’s vast and rapid cultural changes demand that we constantly seek ways of expressing unchanging truths in a language which brings out their abiding newness. (#41)
