Mark 1, 9-11 + CSDC and CV
Mark 1, 9-11 +
CSDC and CV
CV 62b. Such
policies should set out from close collaboration between the migrants'
countries of origin and their countries of destination; it should be
accompanied by adequate international norms able to coordinate different
legislative systems with a view to safeguarding the needs and rights of
individual migrants and their families, and at the same time, those of the host
countries.
CSDC 532a. Catholic educational institutions can and
indeed must carry out a precious formative service, dedicating themselves in a
particular way to the inculturation of the Christian message, that is to say,
to the productive encounter between the Gospel and the various branches of
knowledge. The Church's social doctrine is a necessary means for an efficacious
Christian education towards love, justice and peace, as well as for a conscious
maturation of moral and social duties in the various cultural and professional
fields.
[9] It happened in those days that Jesus came from
Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan by John. [10] On coming up
out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a
dove, descending upon him. [11] And a voice came from the heavens, "You
are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased."
CSDC 31. The Face of God, progressively revealed in
the history of salvation, shines in its fullness in the Face of Jesus Christ
crucified and risen from the dead. God is Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit; truly distinct and truly one, because God is an infinite communion of
love. God's gratuitous love for humanity is revealed, before anything else, as
love springing from the Father, from whom everything draws its source; as the
free communication that the Son makes of this love, giving himself anew to the
Father and giving himself to mankind; as the ever new fruitfulness of divine
love that the Holy Spirit pours forth into the hearts of men (cf. Rom 5:5). By
his words and deeds, and fully and definitively by his death and
resurrection[30], Jesus reveals to humanity that God is Father and that we are
all called by grace to become his children in the Spirit (cf. Rom 8:15; Gal
4:6), and therefore brothers and sisters among ourselves. It is for this reason
that the Church firmly believes that “the key, the centre and the purpose of
the whole of man's history is to be found in her Lord and Master”[31].
