Evangelium
Luc 16:1-9
In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis parábolam hanc: Homo quidam erat dives, qui habébat víllicum: et hic diffamátus est apud illum, quasi dissipásset bona ipsíus. Et vocávit illum et ait illi: Quid hoc audio de te? redde ratiónem villicatiónis tuæ: iam enim non póteris villicáre. Ait autem víllicus intra se: Quid fáciam, quia dóminus meus aufert a me villicatiónem? fódere non váleo, mendicáre erubésco. Scio, quid fáciam, ut, cum amótus fúero a villicatióne, recípiant me in domos suas. Convocátis itaque síngulis debitóribus dómini sui, dicébat primo: Quantum debes dómino meo? At ille dixit: Centum cados ólei. Dixítque illi: Accipe cautiónem tuam: et sede cito, scribe quinquagínta. Deínde álii dixit: Tu vero quantum debes? Qui ait: Centum coros trítici. Ait illi: Accipe lítteras tuas, et scribe octogínta. Et laudávit dóminus víllicum iniquitátis, quia prudénter fecísset: quia fílii huius sǽculi prudentióres fíliis lucis in generatióne sua sunt. Et ego vobis dico: fácite vobis amicos de mammóna iniquitátis: ut, cum defecéritis, recípiant vos in ætérna tabernácula.
Gospel
Luke 16:1-9
At that time, Jesus spoke to His disciples this parable: There was a certain rich man who had a steward, who was reported to him as squandering his possessions. And he called him and said to him, ‘What is this that I hear of you? Make an accounting of your stewardship, for you can be steward no longer.’ And the steward said within himself, ‘What shall I do, seeing that my master is taking away the stewardship from me? To dig I am not able; to beg I am ashamed. I know what I shall do, that when I am removed from my stewardship they may receive me into their houses.’ And he summoned each of his master’s debtors and said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’ And he said, ‘A hundred jars of oil.’ He said to him, ‘Take your bond and sit down at once and write fifty.’ Then he said to another, ‘How much do you owe?’ He said, ‘A hundred kors of wheat.’ He said to him, ‘Take your bond and write eighty.’ And the master commended the unjust steward, in that he had acted prudently; for the children of this world, in relation to their own generation, are more prudent than the children of the light. And I say to you, make friends for yourselves with the mammon of wickedness, so that when you fail they may receive you into the everlasting dwellings.

DALL’OMELIA DI (FROM THE HOMILY BY) DON ENRICO RONCAGLIA – ORARI S.MESSA DI DOMENICA 31 LUGLIO 2022, ORE 10.30:
DALL’OMELIA DI DON ENRICO RONCAGLIA (*,1)
Rom 8:12-17
Fratelli: Noi non siamo debitori alla carne per vivere secondo la carne. Se infatti vivrete secondo la carne, morrete; ma se mediante lo Spirito avrete ucciso le opere della carne, vivrete. Tutti quelli infatti che sono guidati dallo Spirito di Dio, sono figli di Dio. Voi infatti non avete ricevuto lo spirito di servitú per ricadere nel timore, ma lo Spirito d’adozione a figli, per il quale gridiamo: Abba, Padre.
Luc 16:1-9
In quel tempo: Gesú disse ai suoi discepoli questa parabola: Vi era un uomo ricco che aveva un fattore, e questi fu accusato presso di lui di avergli dissipato i beni. E io dico a voi: fatevi degli amici con le ricchezze dell’iniquità, affinché, quando morrete, gli amici vi accolgano nelle loro eterne dimore.
Nel Vangelo di oggi c’e’ un insegnamento sulla scaltrezza: i figli di questo mondo sono piu’ furbi dei figli della luce. Gesu’ loda pero’ l’amministratore disonesto che perche’ usa le ricchezze per guadagnarsi l’amicizia del mondo. Dobbiamo essere furbi anche noi!
Ognuno avra’ il suo giudizio come nel giudizio finale! Non aspettiamo che il tempo passi! Dobbiamo darci da fare per avere amici che pregano per noi! Nell’altra vita ci possono essere amici che pregano per noi!
Condoniamo quindi i debiti con il perdono! E’ un cammino che va fatto dalla preghiera per coloro che hanno debiti con noi, e con le opere di misericordia, senza giudicare e senza condannare nessuno anche se sbagliano (per questo dobbiamo sempre discernere, proprio per poter distinguere il bene dal male, NRD). Questa e’ la nostra astuzia!
Nella preghiera, se fatta sinceramente (e non in modo automatico), otteniamo la grazia per poter “accendere” la nostra vita cristiana con le opere di bene. Alle preghiere aggiungiamo, dunque, sempre le nostre intenzioni!
Sia lodato Cristo! Sempre sia lodato!

FROM THE HOMILY BY DON ENRICO RONCAGLIA (**,1)
Rom 8: 12-17 Brothers: We are not indebted to the flesh to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you have killed the works of the flesh, you will live. In fact, all those who are guided by the Spirit of God are children of God. In fact, you did not receive the spirit of servitude to fall back into fear, but the Spirit of adoption as children, for which we cry: Abba, Father.
Luke 16: 1-9 At that time: Jesus told his disciples this parable: There was a rich man who had a steward, and he was accused with him of having squandered his possessions. And I say to you: make friends with the riches of iniquity, so that when you die, your friends will welcome you into their eternal abodes.
In today’s Gospel there is a teaching on shrewdness: the children of this world are smarter than the children of light. However, Jesus praises the dishonest administrator who uses his wealth to earn the friendship of the world.
We must be smart too! Each will have his own judgment as in the final judgment! Let’s not wait for time to pass!
We must work hard to have friends who pray for us! In the other life there may be friends who pray for us! So let us forgive debts! It is a journey that must be made by prayer for those who have debts with us, and with works of mercy, without judging and without condemning anyone even if they are wrong (we must discern this in order to always be able to distinguish good from evil NRD).
This is our trick!
In prayer, if done sincerely (and not automatically), we obtain the grace to be able to “light up” our Christian life with good works.
Therefore, we always add our intentions to prayers!
Praised be Christ! Always be praised!
