Pope Francis: 1st Homily (full text)  Mar14_1
(Vatican Radio)
Pope Francis celebrated the Missa pro Ecclesiae in the
Sistine Chapel on Thursday afternoon. Below, please find Vatican Radio’s
translation of the full text of his homily.

************************************

In these three readings I see that there is
something in common: it is movement. In the first reading, movement is the
journey [itself]; in the second reading, movement is in the up-building of the
Church. In the third, in the Gospel, the movement is in [the act of] profession:
walking, building, professing.

Walking: the House of Jacob. “O house of
Jacob, Come, let us walk in the light of the Lord.” This is the first thing God
said to Abraham: “Walk in my presence and be blameless.” Walking: our life is a
journey and when we stop, there is something wrong. Walking always, in the
presence of the Lord, in the light of the Lord, seeking to live with that
blamelessness, which God asks of Abraham, in his promise.

Building: to
build the Church. There is talk of stones: stones have consistency, but [the
stones spoken of are] living stones, stones anointed by the Holy Spirit. Build
up the Church, the Bride of Christ, the cornerstone of which is the same Lord.
With [every] movement in our lives, let us build!

Third, professing: we
can walk as much we want, we can build many things, but if we do not confess
Jesus Christ, nothing will avail. We will become a pitiful NGO, but not the
Church, the Bride of Christ. When one does not walk, one stalls. When one does
not built on solid rocks, what happens? What happens is what happens to children
on the beach when they make sandcastles: everything collapses, it is without
consistency. When one does not profess Jesus Christ - I recall the phrase of
Leon Bloy – “Whoever does not pray to God, prays to the devil.” When one does
not profess Jesus Christ, one professes the worldliness of the
devil.

Walking, building-constructing, professing: the thing, however, is
not so easy, because in walking, in building, in professing, there are sometimes
shake-ups - there are movements that are not part of the path: there are
movements that pull us back.

This Gospel continues with a special
situation. The same Peter who confessed Jesus Christ, says, “You are the Christ,
the Son of the living God. I will follow you, but let us not speak of the Cross.
This has nothing to do with it.” He says, “I’ll follow you on other ways, that
do not include the Cross.” When we walk without the Cross, when we build without
the Cross, and when we profess Christ without the Cross, we are not disciples of
the Lord. We are worldly, we are bishops, priests, cardinals, Popes, but not
disciples of the Lord.

I would like that all of us, after these days of
grace, might have the courage - the courage - to walk in the presence of the
Lord, with the Cross of the Lord: to build the Church on the Blood of the Lord,
which is shed on the Cross, and to profess the one glory, Christ Crucified. In
this way, the Church will go forward.

My hope for all of us is that the
Holy Spirit, that the prayer of Our Lady, our Mother, might grant us this grace:
to walk, to build, to profess Jesus Christ Crucified. So be
it.
