Today's Reading from the Divine Office
Vatican City, Sep 7, 2008 / 10:53
am (CNA).- Before the recitation of
the Angelus, Pope Benedict spoke
about the Basilica of Our Lady of
Bonaria, dedicated to the Queen of
All Sailors. Addressing an audience
of almost 100,000 people, which
included Italian Prime Minister
Silvio Berlusconi and Sard
Governor Renato Soru, the Holy
Father noted that tomorrow the
Church celebrates the feast of the
birth of Mary. He further reminded
them that each grace the Lord
granted to Mary, “he granted
thinking of each of us, her children.”

Speaking from the elevated square
in front of the Shrine at Cagliari,
Sardinia, Italy, Pope Benedict
turned his audience’s attention to
the “Sweet Queen of the Sards,”
venerated by illustrious individuals
in the course of the centuries.  Bl.
Pius IX decreed her coronation;
one hundred years ago St. Pius X
proclaimed her patron of all of
Sardinia; Pius XI gave the new
church the title of “Minor Basilica;”
fifty years ago Pius XII made
himself spiritually present with a
special message transmitted live by
Vatican Radio; and in 1960 Bl.
John XXIII sent a letter for the
reopening of the Shrine to worship
after its restoration.

The Holy Father said that the first
pope to return to the island in 1650
years was the Servant of God Paul
VI, who visited the Shrine on April
24, 1970. John Paul II prayed in
front of the holy image of Our Lady
on October 20, 1985. “Even I,”
Pope Benedict continued, “have
chosen the Shrine of Bonaria to
make a pastoral visit that would
ideally span all of Sardinia.”

Stating that “today we renew the
care of Cagliari, of Sardinia and of
each of its inhabitants to Mary,” the
Holy Father invoked the
intercession of Mary to watch over
all, especially those most in need:
children and young people, the
elderly, families and the sick, so
that the patrimony of the Gospel
values may be transmitted intact to
new generations and that Christ
may reign in families, in
communities and in society.

The Holy Father noted that the birth
of Mary was a “fundamental stage”
for the Family of Nazareth, cradle of
humanity’s redemption. “With
immense gratitude,” Pope Benedict
continued, “we ask Mary, Mother of
the Word Incarnate and our Mother,
to protect every earthly mother,
those who, together with their
husbands, raise their children in a
harmonious family context, and
those who, for so many reasons,
find themselves facing this difficult
task alone. May all of them carry out
their daily service in the family, the
Church, and society with dedication
and fidelity. May the Virgin Mary be
support, comfort, and hope for all!”

The Pope concluded by referencing
the people of Haiti, who he said
were “harshly tried in recent days by
the passage of three hurricanes.”
He said, “I pray for the victims, who
unfortunately have been numerous,
and for those left homeless. I am
close to the whole country, and I
hope that it may receive the
necessary aid as soon as possible.
I entrust all to the maternal
protection of Our Lady of Bonaria.”
ARTICLE 3

"HE WAS CONCEIVED BY
THE POWER OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT,
AND WAS BORN OF THE
VIRGIN MARY"

IV. How Is the Son of
God Man?

470
Because "human nature
was assumed, not
absorbed,"97 in the
mysterious union of the
Incarnation, the Church
was led over the course of
centuries to confess the
full reality of Christ's
human soul, with its
operations of intellect and
will, and of his human
body. In parallel fashion,
she had to recall on each
occasion that Christ's
human nature belongs, as
his own, to the divine
person of the Son of God,
who assumed it.
Everything that Christ is
and does in this nature
derives from "one of the
Trinity." The Son of God
therefore communicates to
his humanity his own
personal mode of
existence in the Trinity. In
his soul as in his body,
Christ thus expresses
humanly the divine ways of
the Trinity:98

The Son of God . . . worked
with human hands; he
thought with a human
mind. He acted with a
human will, and with a
human heart he loved.
Born of the Virgin Mary, he
has truly been made one
of us, like to us in all things
except sin.99
Christ's soul and his
human knowledge

471
Apollinarius of Laodicaea
asserted that in Christ the
divine Word had replaced
the soul or spirit. Against
this error the Church
confessed that the eternal
Son also assumed a
rational, human soul.100

472
This human soul that the
Son of God assumed is
endowed with a true human
knowledge. As such, this
knowledge could not in
itself be unlimited: it was
exercised in the historical
conditions of his existence
in space and time. This is
why the Son of God could,
when he became man,
"increase in wisdom and in
stature, and in favor with
God and man,"101 and
would even have to inquire
for himself about what one
in the human condition
can learn only from
experience.102 This
corresponded to the reality
of his voluntary emptying
of himself, taking "the form
of a slave."103


473
But at the same time, this
truly human knowledge of
God's Son expressed the
divine life of his
person.104\ "The human
nature of God's Son, not by
itself but by its union with
the Word, knew and
showed forth in itself
everything that pertains to
God."105 Such is first of all
the case with the intimate
and immediate knowledge
that the Son of God made
man has of his Father.106
The Son in his human
knowledge also showed
the divine penetration he
had into the secret
thoughts of human
hearts.107

474
By its union to the divine
wisdom in the person of
the Word incarnate, Christ
enjoyed in his human
knowledge the fullness of
understanding of the
eternal plans he had come
to reveal.108 What he
admitted to not knowing in
this area, he elsewhere
declared himself not sent
to reveal.109
Christ's human will

475
Similarly, at the sixth
ecumenical council,
Constantinople III in 681,
the Church confessed that
Christ possesses two wills
and two natural operations,
divine and human. They
are not opposed to each
other, but cooperate in
such a way that the Word
made flesh willed humanly
in obedience to his Father
all that he had decided
divinely with the Father
and the Holy Spirit for our
salvation.110 Christ's
human will "does not resist
or oppose but rather
submits to his divine and
almighty will."111
Christ's true body

476
Since the Word became
flesh in assuming a true
humanity, Christ's body
was finite.112 Therefore
the human face of Jesus
can be portrayed; at the
seventh ecumenical
council (Nicaea II in 787)
the Church recognized its
representation in holy
images to be
legitimate.113

477
At the same time the
Church has always
acknowledged that in the
body of Jesus "we see our
God made visible and so
are caught up in love of the
God we cannot see."114
The individual
characteristics of Christ's
body express the divine
person of God's Son. He
has made the features of
his human body his own, to
the point that they can be
venerated when portrayed
in a holy image, for the
believer "who venerates
the icon is venerating in it
the person of the one
depicted."115
The heart of the Incarnate
Word

478
Jesus knew and loved us
each and all during his life,
his agony, and his Passion
and gave himself up for
each one of us: "The Son
of God . . . loved me and
gave himself for me."116
He has loved us all with a
human heart. For this
reason, the Sacred Heart
of Jesus, pierced by our
sins and for our
salvation,117 "is quite
rightly considered the chief
sign and symbol of that . . .
love with which the divine
Redeemer continually
loves the eternal Father
and all human beings"
without exception.118

Gospel
Matthew 18:15-20

Jesus said to his disciples:
“If your brother sins against you,
go and tell him his fault between you and him alone.
If he listens to you, you have won over your brother.
If he does not listen,
take one or two others along with you,
so that ‘every fact may be established
on the testimony of two or three witnesses.’
If he refuses to listen to them, tell the church.
If he refuses to listen even to the church,
then treat him as you would a Gentile or a tax collector.
Amen, I say to you,
whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven,
and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in
heaven.
Again, amen, I say to you,
if two of you agree on earth
about anything for which they are to pray,
it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father.
For where two or three are gathered together in my
name,
there am I in the midst of them.”

Blessed Frederick Ozanam
(1813-1853)
Saint of The Day
A man convinced of the inestimable
worth of each human being, Frederick
served the poor of Paris well and drew
others into serving the poor of the
world. Through the St. Vincent de Paul
Society, his work continues to the
present day.
Frederick was the fifth of Jean and
Marie Ozanam’s 14 children, one of
only three to reach adulthood. As a
teenager he began having doubts
about his religion. Reading and prayer
did not seem to help, but long walking
discussions with Father Noirot of the
Lyons College clarified matters a great
deal.

Frederick wanted to study literature,
although his father, a doctor, wanted
him to become a lawyer. Frederick
yielded to his father’s wishes and in
1831 arrived in Paris to study law at
the University of the Sorbonne. When
certain professors there mocked
Catholic teachings in their lectures,
Frederick defended the Church.

A discussion club which Frederick
organized sparked the turning point in
his life. In this club Catholics, atheists
and agnostics debated the issues of
the day. Once, after Frederick spoke
on Christianity’s role in civilization, a
club member said: "Let us be frank,
Mr. Ozanam; let us also be very
particular. What do you do besides talk
to prove the faith you claim is in you?"

Frederick was stung by the question.
He soon decided that his words
needed a grounding in action. He and
a friend began visiting Paris tenements
and offering assistance as best they
could. Soon a group dedicated to
helping individuals in need under the
patronage of St. Vincent de Paul
formed around Frederick.

Feeling that the Catholic faith needed
an excellent speaker to explain its
teachings, Frederick convinced the
Archbishop of Paris to appoint Father
Lacordaire, the greatest preacher then
in France, to preach a Lenten series in
Notre Dame Cathedral. It was well
attended and became an annual
tradition in Paris.

After Frederick earned his law degree
at the Sorbonne, he taught law at the
University of Lyons. He also earned a
doctorate in literature. Soon after
marrying Amelie Soulacroix on June
23, 1841, he returned to the Sorbonne
to teach literature. A well-respected
lecturer, Frederick worked to bring out
the best in each student. Meanwhile,
the St. Vincent de Paul Society was
growing throughout Europe. Paris
alone counted 25 conferences.

In 1846, Frederick, Amelie and their
daughter Marie went to Italy; there
Frederick hoped to restore his poor
health. They returned the next year.
The revolution of 1848 left many
Parisians in need of the services of the
St. Vincent de Paul conferences. The
unemployed numbered 275,000. The
government asked Frederick and his
co-workers to supervise the
government aid to the poor.
Vincentians throughout Europe came
to the aid of Paris.

Frederick then started a newspaper,
The New Era, dedicated to securing
justice for the poor and the working
classes. Fellow Catholics were often
unhappy with what Frederick wrote.
Referring to the poor man as "the
nation’s priest," Frederick said that the
hunger and sweat of the poor formed a
sacrifice that could redeem the people’
s humanity

In 1852 poor health again forced
Frederick to return to Italy with his wife
and daughter. He died on September
8, 1853. In his sermon at Frederick’s
funeral, Lacordaire described his
friend as "one of those privileged
creatures who came direct from the
hand of God in whom God joins
tenderness to genius in order to
enkindle the world."

Frederick was beatified in 1997. Since
Frederick wrote an excellent book
entitled Franciscan Poets of the
Thirteenth Century and since
Frederick’s sense of the dignity of
each poor person was so close to the
thinking of St. Francis, it seemed
appropriate to include him among
Franciscan "greats."
