YOU HAVE TOO MANY SIGNS ALREADY.

YOU HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH SIGNS.


"While still more people gathered in the crowd, Jesus said to them,

“This generation is an evil generation;

it seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it,

except the sign of Jonah.

Just as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites,
so will the Son of Man be to this generation.

At the judgment
the queen of the south will rise with the men of this generation
and she will condemn them,

because she came from the ends of the earth
to hear the wisdom of Solomon,

and there is something greater than Solomon here.

At the judgment the men of Nineveh will arise with this generation
and condemn it,

because at the preaching of Jonah they repented,
and there is something greater than Jonah here.” (Luke 11: 29 - 32).

WEDNESDAY February 25th in the 1st Week of Lent.



In the Book of Jonah 3: 1 - 10, Jonah preached to the Ninivites and shared the testimony of his stay in the belly of the whale.


The people of Nineveh and their king heard the message. They believed and repented.

St Paul preached to the Greeks in the Areopagus. They listened attentively and politely but did not believe. 

Jesus told the crowd in today's Gospel: 

No more miracles for you. You keep looking for a big sign from heaven to prove that I am the Messiah.

But what happened to Jonah is the only sign you will get.

My friends, where are you today in your spiritual walk with Jesus in this Lenten Season?

Are you still looking for more signs?

Listen to what Abraham said to Dives in the Parable of the Rich man and Lazarus.

The former rich man denied Lazarus a little sign that his life matters.

Abraham told him that his brothers have more than enough signs from the Church.

‘If they will not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if someone should rise from the dead." (Luke 16: 31).

We have in the Church all the signs we need.

The Church of the living God is the sign of salvation.

This Church subsists in the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church founded by Jesus Christ.

This Church has visible structures. It exists in almost every country in the world, attesting to her universality.

The Church has one Shepherd, one Liturgy and holds the entire Deposit of Faith.

That is, the Church has the fullness of Faith.

What more are we looking for? There will be no more signs till the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.


The Holy Catholic Church honors the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph in February.

“In this Family there came into the world, grew and was brought up the Son of God, conceived and born of the Virgin-Mother, and at the same time entrusted, from the beginning, to the truly fatherly care of Joseph.” (Pope St John Paul II).
