Dear brothers and sisters. We begin this new month, month of October. Continuing to make fly our spirit fly, in the wake left behind from the feast of the Archangels; Michael Gabriel and Raphael. That we have lived two days ago. So that everyone may increase the quality of his participation to the Divine Plan. Arriving here, in this Place of salvation. No longer just to take, to have. But always more, always more to give. And teach how to give by their own example. So that everyone, may earn his place, in eternity. Just as Jesus teaches us in the "Catechesis." And so, as Jesus teaches us in this passage of Gospel that we have listened to today. That once more is proposed to the world. In the hope that man finally can understand, for what or rather for whom, it is really worth living for in this life. Who, if not God. What is the use of this passing existence, which can end at any moment. If not, to earn or to lose oneself forever, Eternal life. And therefore, strengthened by this knowledge, one advances, in the awareness, full and total. that whatever we do in this life, on this journey, in this earthly pilgrimage, has total repercussions on eternity. Therefore, to return to give and take, what I will have eternally, will depend from how I have been capable of giving in this life, to God, and to the next. That's why Jesus, gives us these words today, to make us meditate on the deep sense of this life. A life, that in our freedom we can transform in the greatest of gifts, if we are saved. Or in the greatest of misfortunes, if we are lost. As Jesus says: "What is the use of man to conquer the whole world, if he then loses himself?" Or even worse, to that man who all wants, who all would like. But he fails to give importance to the things that really matter. Then, what's the point? What is the point of living a life, to accumulate wealth and property. That then anyway, one has to leave here. Better then it would be, to use those riches and those assets, to help others. To help the reality to which you belong. So that those riches do not become, your God. But become the springboard that projects you into eternity. What's the point, living for power? Living, for covetousness, to appear, to be great, humanly? Things that will do nothing but build a tower of Babel inside the man's heart, which will rise higher and higher, and always greater will be his ruin in the moment in which time will run out, and will fall from that tower. Because dear brothers, this love, unbounded for all that is human, for all that is world, can only bring, to infidelity to God, to pride, to selfishness, to that setting oneself up as master, of the small. Even going so far as to put himself above God. Losing that holy friendship that God gives, to man, which is bartered, for a plate of lentils. For maybe some apparent powerful human friendship that today is, and tomorrow is no more. And becoming for this small, insignificant, and unwelcome in the eyes of God. A way that therefore, can only bring to hell. Hell, that is a reality. That really exists. And those who say: that it does not exist. Those who say: that it is an inner reality, or that it is empty. According to you, do they want, do they wish that men, do not go there? Or these words are proclaimed in the hope that the largest numbers of souls may end up in it. Or rather, it is as Father Pius says, to that reporter when he asked him, when he said: "Father, look, the problem is that I don't believe in hell". And he answered him: "Don't worry, when you find yourself there, you will believe it." A few words, to make the point well understood, that Heaven and hell, really exist. And all that we do on earth, can bring us to one side, or to the other. For this every man, must have within himself, as a priority, that of saving oneself. Not so much out of fear of ending up in hell. But out of love for this Father, who wants to see men capable of conquering the only wealth that is truly worth having in this life; God, and the eternal life He gives us. Every man, who must find the way home; this House, this Church, this new Abode, because today from here passes the way to salvation, the real treasure to make all converge into the Kingdom, so that every man may deserve that wealth, the day in which he will have crossed the finish line. The day in which he will have obtained it, not for free as others want to peddle. But conquered with a life of sacrifice, deserving that glory, of which every man saved, will be clad not of human glory, not of human power, but of the glory of God, the power of God. And above all, deserving as of now, already that identity of Son of God. Identity, of children of God,
