He is known as the “Angel of Mexico” and is the patron of travelers. At age 72, he distributed all he had among the poor and entered the Franciscans as a brother. Sebastian lived from 1502 to 1600, and he was a bridge builder mostly in Mexico. Help me to love all others as much as I love you. The Franciscans’ have a saying: “commit yourself to daily conversion.” “Lord, I love you above all. We need to transform ourselves to be like Christ, and follow His whole laws. The idea of perfection for the Jews of that time, was a man who observed the whole law without exception. In Luke’s gospel, the parallel verse ( Luke 6:36 ) demands that the disciples be merciful. In the gospels this word occurs only in Matthew here and in Matthew 19:21. In the last sentence of this reading, the word “perfect” was used. In the time of Jesus, the “greeting” mentioned above, was a prayer of blessing on the one greeted. Jesus’ disciples must not be content with the usual standards of conduct in society. If you don’t see Jesus in everyone, get your vision checked in the confessional, and at mass. Remember, all people are God’s creation, and we should see Jesus in everyone we meet. Loving our enemies is a must for all Christians. He instructs that loving those that hate you, increases God’s love for you. Jesus ate with tax collectors frequently, during His ministry. It would have been difficult to be hated more than a tax collector. Tax collectors were hated publicly, verbally, and sometimes violently. Tax collectors were a symbol of low morality, being often associated with extortion and collaborating in the Roman occupation of Palestine. Hence, tax collectors were regarded as sinners and outcasts of society, and were disgraced, along with their families. The abuse of extortion was widespread among tax collectors. Whatever they collected above this amount was profit to them. Such tax collectors paid a fixed amount of money for the right to collect customs duties within their districts. The tax collectors were Jews of the region, who were engaged in the collection of indirect taxes such as tolls and customs. Jesus distinguishes between earthly rewards, and Godly rewards. Aggression displayed is transformed into a strategy of winning through the wisdom of love. Christianity is purposely not aggressive by nature and intent. As children of God, we must imitate the example of the Jesus. Jesus extends the love commandment to the enemy, and the persecutor. Both in the Old Testament, and in the Qumran (1QS 9:21), hatred of evil persons is assumed to be permitted and all right. The “neighbor” of this “love” commandment was understood as one’s fellow countryman. There is no Old Testament commandment demanding hatred of one’s enemy. There was no “as yourself” at the end of the quotation. (NAB Mt 5:43-48)ĭid you notice this series of verses left out the end of the quote from the first sentence. ![]() For if you love those who love you, what recompense will you have? Do not the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet your brothers only, what is unusual about that? Do not the pagans do the same? So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.

But there's somethin’ out there.” This was the Apollo 17 mission, December 1972. “As we look back at the Earth, it’s, uh, up at about 11 o’clock, about, uh, well, maybe 10 or 12 diameters,” the sampled voice of astronaut Eugene Cernan says on “Contact.” “I don't know whether that does you any good.

There was joy in it, but there was melancholy, too: Here was a world seen through the rearview, beautiful in part because you couldn’t quite go back to it. “Get Lucky” and “Lose Yourself to Dance”-spotlights both for Pharrell and the pioneering work of Chic’s Nile Rodgers-recaptured the innocence of early disco and invited their audience to do the same. “Touch” was “All You Need Is Love” for the alienation of a post- Space Odyssey universe “Give Life Back to Music” wasn’t just there to set the scene, it was a command-just think of all the joy music has brought you. The concept, as much as the album had one, was to suggest that as great as our frictionless digital world may be, there was a sense of adventurousness and connection to the spirit of the ’70s that, if not lost, had at least been subdued. The theatricality that had always been part of their stage show and presentation found its musical outlet (“Giorgio by Moroder,” the Paul Williams feature “Touch”), and the soft-rock panache they started playing with on 2001’s Discovery got a fuller, more earnest treatment (“Within,” the Julian Casablancas feature “Instant Crush,” the I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-The-Doobie-Brothers moves of “Fragments of Time”). So while the live-band-driven sound of 2013’s Random Access Memories was a curveball, it was also a logical next step. But it also marked Daft Punk as a group with a strong, dynamic relationship to the past whose music served an almost dialogic function: They weren’t just expressing themselves, they were talking to their inspirations-a conversation that spanned countries, decades, styles and technological revolutions. Within the context of 1997’s Homework, “Teachers” presented the group as bright kids ready to absorb the lessons of those who came before them. All you have to do is listen to Bruce Swedien’s records, and you have something to aim for.There is an early Daft Punk track named “Teachers” that, effectively, served as a roll call for the French duo’s influences: Paul Johnson, DJ Funk, DJ Sneak. I think that alone is a great learning process. After announcing their retirement, Daft Punk retreat to their interdimensional ship to travel through space, time, and reality. “You’ll get an idea of balance, how an instrument should sound. “Get a bunch of Bruce’s albums and start listening,” he urges. To Schmitt, Swedien’s discography contains invaluable lessons for young engineers today. In the latter, the securities are of a very high level, but the performances are less qualified. That’s the right kind of marriage, when you have someone you admire and can make great records with. Its a little basic difference between Thriller and Bad. 'Thriller Access Memories' - accompanied by a full video made of clips from live performances and music videos - includes several unlikely marriages between the iconic popstar and mysterious French duo.
