Rev. Daniel E. Pilarczyk

The signs of God’s plans are neither few nor hidden. It’s up to us to interpret those signs. Where do I look for signs of God’s plans for me?

You have to be strong and courageous to pursue the kingdom in our world. It’s not easy. Jesus never said it would be.

The timing of Jesus’ coming has not been revealed. We have to wait in watchfulness. It’s up to us to be ready to receive him.

To repudiate the Holy Spirit of God who animates Jesus’ teaching is to spurn the possibility of God’s forgiveness.

The threats and secret designs of Jesus’ enemies would be overcome by the power of God. The Father looks after every aspect of the disciples’ being.

Jesus accuses the Pharisees of being fundamentally unfaithful to their calling. They don’t really reverence the custodians of authentic Jewish tradition.
