9th Sunday After Pentecost 2023
God gives us virtues to help us cooperate in the salvation which He is accomplishing. God gave a warning to Solomon that he would destroy Israel and make an example of it before all nations if it transgressed God’s law. The Holy Machabees are a perfect example of divine fortitude and loyalty to God. Even the Mother of the Machabees encouraged her sons in sacrificing themselves for God and resisting the temptations of evil men. Let’s learn from our ancestors, as Saint Paul says, so that we may join them in Heaven.
