More quotes by Pope Benedict XVI
Grace, lavished upon us by God and communicated through the Mystery of the Incarnate Word, is an absolutely free gift with which nature is healed, strengthened and assisted in pursuing the innate desire for happiness in the heart of every man and of every woman.
Pope Benedict XVI
Do you want to know yourself better? Then discover silence.
Pope Benedict XVI
Food security is an authentically human requirement. Guaranteeing it for present and future generations also means safeguarding ourselves against the uncontrolled exploitation of natural resources. Indeed, the process of consumption and waste seems to overlook any concern for ... biodiversity, which is so important for agriculture.
Pope Benedict XVI
For each one of you, as for the apostles, the encounter with the divine Teacher who calls you friends may be the beginning of an extraordinary venture: that of becoming apostles among your contemporaries to lead them to live their own experience of friendship with God, made Man, with God who has made himself my friend.
Pope Benedict XVI
The Church is not an association that wishes to promote a certain cause. It is not about a cause. It is about the person of Jesus Christ.
Pope Benedict XVI
We can fall, but in the end we fall into God's hands, and God's hands are good hands.
Pope Benedict XVI
Purity of heart is what enables us to see.
Pope Benedict XVI
The wrath of God is a way of saying that I have been living in a way that is contrary to the love that is God. Anyone who begins to live and grow away from God, who lives away from what is good, is turning his life toward wrath.
Pope Benedict XVI
Continue to witness to the Gospel every day and commit yourselves generously in the next missionary initiatives in the Diocese of Rome.
Pope Benedict XVI
Society today is being fragmented by a way of thinking that is inherently short-sighted because it disregards the full horizon of truth - the truth about God and about us. By its nature, relativism fails to see the whole picture. It ignores the very principles that enable us to live and flourish in unity, order and harmony.
Pope Benedict XVI
The Church is not a political power, nor a political party, but rather a moral reality, a moral force.
Pope Benedict XVI
We cannot live, we cannot look at the truth about ourselves without letting ourselves be looked at and generated by Christ in daily Eucharistic Adoration.
Pope Benedict XVI
The ecological crisis shows the urgency of a solidarity which embraces time and space... A greater sense of intergenerational solidarity is urgently needed. Future generations cannot be saddled with the cost of our use of common environmental resources.
Pope Benedict XVI
Believers are increasingly aware that, unless the Good News is made known also in the digital world, it may be absent in the experience of many people for whom this existential space is important.
Pope Benedict XVI
A Catholic would be guilty of formal cooperation in evil, and so unworthy to present himself for Holy Communion, if he were to deliberately vote for a candidate precisely because of the candidate's permissive stand on abortion and/or euthanasia.
Pope Benedict XVI
In the eyes of the unrighteous it appeared that God did not intervene and that His Son died, but for believers it was at that precise moment that true glory was manifested and definitive salvation achieved.
Pope Benedict XVI
We are no longer able to hear God - There are too many frequencies filling our ears.
Pope Benedict XVI
The world promises you comfort, but you were not made for comfort. You were made for greatness.
Pope Benedict XVI
The environment is God's gift to everyone, and in our use of it we have a responsibility towards the poor, towards future generations, and towards humanity as a whole.
Pope Benedict XVI
All the Saints of God are there to protect me, to sustain me and to carry me. And your prayers, my dear friends, your indulgence, your love, your faith and your hope accompany me.
