  31 ST WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME (Deut 6:2-6) (Heb 7: 23-28) (Mk 12:28-34) "Love your God" If we reflect upon the life of Jesus, it is full of challenges and various questions. He was surrounded by the teachers of the Law at the age of twelve. But Jesus answered all their questions with divine intelligence. In Jesus’ ministry the tax collectors, Pharisees, Scribe and the teachers of the Law had been seeking to blame Jesus that he is not the Son of God. They always used to make plan to find fault in His teaching. But they failed in front of the divinity of Jesus. In today’s Gospel also they are asking different kinds of questions. One of the teachers of the Law also asked the question that which commandment is the first of all. To understand the mind of Jesus, first of all we must understand what is commandment! Why the teacher asked question about the commandment?   A commandment is the written or an oral requirement. It has various names such as,  Decalogue,...

  A LESSON FROM THE DISHONEST ACTION   “I don't want perfect one I want an honest one.”                                    (Luke 16:1-13) St. Luke registers for us a very exclusive parable that has instigated many difficulties in trying to comprehend it. This is one of the few times where someone’s dishonest action is appears to be admired by Jesus. The parable of venal steward is perplexing one, because the steward is not only admired for his manner but Jesus also presents him as a perfect example for his disciples to imitate. The parable Jesus sets up with the rich man who received  charge that his manager was carelessness with the rich man's possessions. The manager is called in to provide an account of his management and is informed that he will no longer serve as the manager. Thus the manager was miss using the owner's possessions because of...

It's the tale of the man with two children. It is one of Jesus' most unique stories. We typically refer to it as the Parable of the Prodigal Son or now and then as the account of the Forgiving Father. In reality, it could better and all the more appropriately be known as the Parable of the Prodigal Father.
