And why did this happen? For his special love they cling to Christ as Lord and also to all people,

Valleys and hills, and crooked places and sharp should be understood to mean all sins. All we have to remove the sins we have to clean up the newborn Savior could with pleasure and delight to come into our hearts, when we worship Him in a manger. And why, beloved, so many sins we doing, why they so rudely insult God and my soul are preparing a terrible doom? They are of various causes. Many a man wading in sensuality, sensual pleasures are the target of his efforts, and those oblivious to anything. Other yearns for goods of this world, in those sees his goal and his all, for those sins, so a lot of them amassed, those blinded him so that it does not know where we are headed. Another man in his pride and vypínavosti thinks of himself that has everything that myself quite enough, all my qualities and merits so exaggerated, that sees more than all the enhancements, and therefore he disdains, is stupid and does not want to obey the law of any . And if their own lives and their neighbors watched on, we came to learn many others as iniquity of which as abundant sources of Rino with our sins.
But we go further, we found that even all these threads extend even to one higher wellspring from which flows all manner of sin, and this is the highest fount of all sin is to God dislike and contempt for God and for neighbor dislike and contempt for him. If we always God and love your neighbor properly, we could not sinning. And therefore all their sins and repair their affection to remove them, and renew if in their hearts a true love for God and neighbor. This love that we learn best evangelist of the Lord, which is called the disciple of love, Saint John I will speak thus of St. John the evangelist, if you do us a model of true love.
As in Paradise were four rivers that might water down, to deliver an abundant harvest, so we have four sources which we gushes teachings of the Holy Gospel, the four holy evangelists. Badge fourth Evangelist, St. John is the eagle. As the eagle soars from all birds for maximum sun and his keen eye staring up at the sun and can tolerate light his way, Lord St. John the Evangelist uplifting at the very beginning run of his Gospel to the heights of heaven and looks at the sun, over which he is clearer and brighter, visor at Holy Trinity and lists eternal divine origin of the second person from the first, saying: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
1. St. John was the son of Zebedee and Salome, and brother of St. James the Elder. Because he was Zebedeus fisherman, helped run his two sons James and John, at his craft on the lake genezareckém. When he began to preach, St. John the Baptist at the Jordan River, became John, son of Zebedee. his disciple. When he was in the desert alerted the words of John the Baptist: "Behold the Lamb of God," the Holy Andrew Christ the Lord, they went both of those disciples for the Lord Jesus and stayed with him throughout the day. On this for some time called by the Lord Himself for His disciples fishing nets from St. Andrew and St. Peter, then also called James and John. All these forsook everything to follow Jesus. And how did these four, so did many others.
The second year of his public ministry the Lord Jesus came with his disciples into Capernaum. From the town that went up the mountain and was staying the whole night in prayer. Certainly prepared to work very important, because for so long prayed. It showed run that this is His work, because you have chosen of his disciples, twelve in particular, which he called run apostles. And these twelve belonged also Saint John Yes, this apostle was not only an apostle run of the ordinary, but excelled above all. Jana with Peter and James, the Lord called to the most important works. Jan witnessed the healing of Peter's mother in law, daughter Jajrovy resurrection, he was famous at the Transfiguration of Christ run on the Mount, Jan Peter prepared the Last Supper, with Peter and James witnessed the anguish of Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane. He is also the first St. Peter ran to the tomb of the Savior after His resurrection.
Yes Jan excelled in some spůsobem even over Peter and James. Indeed, at the Last Supper he only rested on the breast of Jesus, to the order of St. Peter, the Lord told him the name of traitor, and recommended the Lord on the Cross John rarest treasure, his Mother, Jan also the only one of the apostles of Christ walked up to Calvary and stood with the Most Holy Mother under the cross of the Lord. Jan also the only one of all the apostles died the death, naturally, while others all died a violent death, a martyr. We see, therefore, that St. John the Evangelist was honored run before all the apostles of the Lord.
And why did this happen? For his special love they cling to Christ as Lord and also to all people, that is for God and neighbor. After all, he calls himself a disciple he loved the Lord, that is, whom he loved more than the other apostles, and certainly the cause of the greater love of the Lord to St. John was greater love Genoa to Christ the Lord. Is it true that love to Christ the Lord was at first too strong, so that i longed for revenge; For we know that when he did one city at Samaritan
