Mindenható és irgalmas Isten, távoztass el kegyesen mindent, ami nekünk ártalmas, hogy testben és lélekben egyformán, akadálytalanul, szabadon kövessük, ami a tiéd.

Evangélium szent Máté Apostol kőnyvéből
!Matt 22:1-14
Azon időben Jézus ismét példabeszédben szólt hozzájuk: A mennyek országa hasonlít a királyhoz, aki menyegzőt rendezett a fiának. És így tovább.

Homily by Pope St Gregory (the Great.)
!38th on the Gospels.
I remember that I have often said that, in the Holy Gospel, the Church as she now is, is called the kingdom of heaven, for the kingdom of heaven is indeed the assembly of the righteous. The Lord hath said by the mouth of His Prophet „ The heaven is My throne.” (Isa. lxvi. 1.) Solomon saith „The throne of wisdom is the soul of the righteous.” And Paul saith that Christ is „the power of God and the wisdom of God.” (1 Cor. i. 24.) From these passages we may clearly gather that if wisdom be God, and wisdom's throne be the soul of the righteous, and God's throne be the heaven, then the soul of the righteous is heaven. Hence also the Psalmist saith, speaking of holy preachers „The heavens declare the glory of God.” (xviii. 2.)
