New Pope Leo XIV. He is already fully acting. After he met the Cardinals on Mass on Friday in the afternoon he knew that he was confirmed in the office in the office to date the Vatican structures. That is, the bosses of dicasteries and authorities, appointed by his predecessor František.
On Sunday, his next public performance is scheduled – during the noon Prayer Regina Coeli, which replaces the traditional Angelus (Angel of the Lord) during the Easter period
The lion’s image of Jesus
According to the new man, Jesus Christ is in the White Lion XIV. “Treasure” or “wealth” of the Church. He talked about him in his first homily in front of the Cardinals. He sees the “savior”, “the only” Savior and the one who reveals the “face of the father”.
“He could be known to us in the trusted eyes of the child, in the bright mind of a young man and in the mature features of a man,” the new Pope depicted before the Cardinal Church in the Sistine Chapel. He sees “holy mankind,” which can be followed by everyone.
Beyond the limits, without merit – a lion about your choice
His immediate attitudes to his election can also be subtracted from Lev’s sermon. “Beyond our limits”, “without our merits” – these are the terms it uses in describing the role of Peter, the first of the apostles, and the first pope in history. “We are brought here and posted to report the gospel to every creation.”
Not the beauty of structures but authentic faith
The Pope sees his new role as the “faithful administrator” of the Church, who will “enlighten the nights of the world”. According to him, it should not do this because of the “grandeur of its structures”, but “holiness” of its members. Holiness is an expression that is used to express the authenticity of the experience of faith.
According to Leo, Jesus is reduced only to a “charismatic leader” or “super -person”, he said it is an expression of “practical atheism”, paradoxically, among “many baptized”.
He often sees the absence of faith behind dramas as “loss of the meaning of life”, “violations of man’s dignity” or the crisis of families.
“This is the world that has been entrusted to us in which we are – as we have been taught so many times by Pope Francis – calling for us to testify to faith in Jesus the Savior,” said Leo XIV.
