[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in today’s Gospel Jesus exposes the root problems behind sexual
sin. Jesus says, "You have heard it said, You shall not commit adultery.
But I say to you, everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already
committed adultery with her in his heart." The act is certainly bad, of
course. It’s grounded in a dysfunctional attitude, a basic misperception, a
compromise of the soul. In order to be aligned to the God who is nothing
but love, these underlying problems need to be addressed.Time and again, we
hear that the Church’s moral demands—especially in the sexual arena—are too
stringent, that the Church ought to conform itself with societal
expectations, or that huge pluralities of Catholics themselves want to
lighten the load. What do these data prove? Well, nothing really, except
that Catholic moral teaching is difficult. But so what? To dial down our
moral ideals is to compromise the Church’s whole purpose. Jesus didn’t dial
down the demands of love, and neither does his Church.*
