+ Holy Gospel according to Mark 12: 1 – 12 He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a wine press, and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and left on a journey. At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants to obtain from them some of the produce of the vineyard. But they seized him, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. Again he sent them another servant. And that one they beat over the head and treated shamefully. He sent yet another whom they killed. So, too, many others; some they beat, others they killed. He had one other to send, a beloved son. He sent him to them last of all, thinking, 'They will respect my son.' But those tenants said to one another, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.' So they seized him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. What (then) will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come, put the tenants to death, and give the vineyard to others. Have you not read this scripture passage: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes'?” They were seeking to arrest him, but they feared the crowd, for they realized that he had addressed the parable to them. So they left him and went away. The Gospel of the Lord

Saint Justin Martyr, an early Christian apologist, is best known for his First Apology, which documents Christian worship and beliefs in the first century. This blogcast explores “St. Justin Martyr's Lessons in Christianity" from the Ad Infinitum blog, written by Erin Donn and read by Brian Rhude.Have you ever considered what it would have been like to be a member of the Church in the first few centuries? Jesus would have been fresh in peoples' memories, but the rich Christian tradition we have today would have only just been taking shape. Those early followers of Christ would have been interpreting what Jesus' teachings meant and figuring out how to live them out in their daily lives, both individually and communally. It was in this context that St. Justin Martyr, an early Christian convert and apologist who lived in modern day Israel from about 100-165 AD, lived. St. Justin is well known for his First Apology, which he wrote to the Roman emperor, Antoninus Titus, as a defense and explanation of Christianity. This text not only gives us insight to what it was like when the Church was taking shape, but it also provides a rich insight into how we can live as Christians to this day.1) Being Christians in name and deedSt. Justin knew as well as anyone today that it is much easier to say you are a Christian than it is to truly live as one. He wanted the emperor to truly understand what Christianity was and Who it was founded upon, to not base his opinions on the popular zeitgeist: “For from a name neither praise nor punishment could reasonably spring, unless something excellent or base in action be proved.” (Ch. IV) For us today, we live in a world where the name “Christian” can carry so many different connotations. It depends on each of us to “prove something excellent” in our actions. Besides claiming the name Christian, are we living and worshiping in a way that reflects this privileged name?2) How to live as ChristiansWhether Christians in the first century or in the 21st century, we are called to live for God and His eternal kingdom above all else. With his eyes focused on Heaven, St. Justin was able to accept persecutions because he understood that his earthly life was temporary. He encouraged others to “imitate the excellences which reside in [God], temperance, and justice, and philanthropy.” (Ch. X) Rather than the material offerings sacrificed at the time, St. Justin wanted to make an offering of his life by setting aside his own will and taking up God's ways. Rather than imitating the pagan gods, he wanted to become deified by “living near to God in holiness and virtue.” (Ch. XXIII) While our settings may be different today, we can still practice the patience, love, and charity towards others that St. Justin encouraged.3) Christian CommunityThroughout the Apology, St. Justin is not just preaching about individual Christians, but the whole Christian community. From the beginning, the necessity of community was always understood. It was through one another that they would receive the faith, be converted, and persevere in the faith. Rather than worship alone, the early Christians understood the need to come together. The faithful would gather to offer prayers for one another to be “found good citizens and keepers of the commandments.” (Ch LXV) They would celebrate the Eucharist in remembrance of Christ's passion and for their own nourishment. They would collect money to be distributed for the needs among them. Rather than seeing this early form of the Mass as a Sunday obligation, it was the fitting response to their new life in Christ. We too can embrace this view of community as the place we offer God fitting worship and truly practice our faith.While today most of us are blessed to not fear extreme persecution or martyrdom, we do still have the freedom and responsibility to make the choice for God and the good daily. Through the intercession of St. Justin, may we be strengthened to boldly profess and live out our faith.

April 14th, 2026: St Justin Martyr & Paschaltide; How to Make a Good Confession; The Sanctifying Reality of the Resurrection
2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed: nor hidden, that shall not be known.Nihil autem opertum est, quod non reveletur : neque absconditum, quod non sciatur. 3 For whatsoever things you have spoken in darkness, shall be published in the light: and that which you have spoken in the ear in the chambers, shall be preached on the housetops.Quoniam quae in tenebris dixistis, in lumine dicentur : et quod in aurem locuti estis in cubiculis, praedicabitur in tectis. 4 And I say to you, my friends: Be not afraid of them who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.Dico autem vobis amicis meis : Ne terreamini ab his qui occidunt corpus, et post haec non habent amplius quid faciant. 5 But I will shew you whom you shall fear: fear ye him, who after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear him.Ostendam autem vobis quem timeatis : timete eum qui, postquam occiderit, habet potestatem mittere in gehennam : ita dico vobis, hunc timete. 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?Nonne quinque passeres veneunt dipondio, et unus ex illis non est in oblivione coram Deo? 7 Yea, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows.sed et capilli capitis vestri omnes numerati sunt. Nolite ergo timere : multis passeribus pluris estis vos. 8 And I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.Dico autem vobis : Omnis quicumque confessus fuerit me coram hominibus, et Filius hominis confitebitur illum coram angelis Dei :St Justin was converted from pagan philosophy to Christianity . He became the most illustrious opponent of pagan philosophers. He addressed two Apologies to the persecuting emperors. He died A.D. 165.
In this episode, we explore the life of Justin Martyr, a second-century philosopher who transitioned from a truth-seeker of various schools of thought to a Christian intellectual. We learn about his journey to faith, his defense of Christianity against Roman misconceptions, and his ultimate martyrdom, highlighting how he bridged faith and reason.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Justin Martyr01:48 Justin's Philosophical Journey05:22 Conversion to Christianity and Epiphany08:44 Challenging Roman Misconceptions10:44 Justin's Apology and Legal Defense15:37 Logos and Christian Philosophy17:20 Martyrdom and Enduring Legacy

We begin exploring the third commandment and learn about rest and worship concerning the Lord's Day. The Catechism points out that God models what he wants for us as he also rested on the seventh day. Fr. Mike explains the importance of prioritizing rest for ourselves because we are free and no longer enslaved people. The Catechism describes how we are to keep the Lord's Day holy with “outward, visible, public, and regular worship ‘as a sign of his universal beneficence to all.'” Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2168-2176. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Celebrating the sacrament of the Eucharist has been part of the Tradition of the Catholic Church for 2,000 years. Fr. Mike unpacks the citation from St. Justin Martyr's First Apology, which beautifully describes the structure of the Mass in AD 155 and captures how the Early Church had the same understanding of the Eucharist as we do today.

John 17:11b-19 Lifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed, saying: “Holy Father, keep them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one just as we are one. When I was with them I protected them in your name that you gave me, and I guarded them, and none of them was lost except the son of destruction, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled. But now I am coming to you. I speak this in the world so that they may share my joy completely. I gave them your word, and the world hated them, because they do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world. I do not ask that you take them out of the world but that you keep them from the Evil One. They do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world. Consecrate them in the truth. Your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, so I sent them into the world. And I consecrate myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in truth.”

Life is NOT the END, but it's relative, i.e., depending on the exchange value. People were ready to die for a greater cause - one's country, family, dream, etc. Have you found something or someone for whom you are ready to sacrifice your life joyfully? In the Early Church, the disciples considered it to be a privilege to die for Christ! St. Justin, Martyr (100-165) was a pagan philosopher. He was seriously in search of the Truth. He went to different Schools of Thought in search of it. Someone told him, "Truth is revealed and not known". Then, he began to read the Old Testament and some of the Writings of the New Testament as well. Behold, he found the Truth and the name of the Truth is (was) Jesus. Having found the Truth, he went about preaching Jesus. He defended the faith unlike Apostles, Apostolic Fathers, and Church Fathers. That's why he is very rightly called - 'Unapologetic Apologist'. St. Justin is the FIRST Apologist of the Church. When he was to be executed for refusing to worship the pagan gods, he said, "हम मारे जाने से घबराते नहीं हैं, क्योंकि हम अपना भरोसा वर्तमान पर नहीं रखते और हमें किसी भी हाल में मरना ही होगा।" “But since we do not place our hopes on the present [order], and since we will have to die somehow in any case, we are not troubled by being put to death.” He was ready to die because - his hope was not in the present world and one has to die in any case. But, people died and still die for the name of Jesus. It was NOT out of compulsion and sadness, but out of total freedom and in total joyfulness. It was a privilege to suffer and die for the sake of Jesus who loved them to the end. Do we have to hesitate to die for the sake of Christ? Jesus says, "उन से नहीं डरो, जो शरीर को मार डालते हैं, किन्तु आत्मा को नहीं मार सकते, बल्कि उससे डरो, जो शरीर और आत्मा दोनों का नरक में सर्वनाश कर सकता है।" (सन्त मत्ती 10:28) "Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell." (Matthew 10:28) Living and dying for Christ should be the purpose of our life.

ST. JUSTIN MARTYR | PATRON OF THE PHILOSOPHER Feast Day: JUNE 1 St. Justin was a Christian philosopher and writer of the 2nd Century A.D. He was born near Sichem, Palestine about the year 100. His father, who was a pagan, brought him up in the errors of paganism. Justin spent his youth studying science, history, poems and orations. Having been disappointed with the pride of pagan philosophers who denied God, he tried to look for the true philosophy. And God answered his desire. While walking by the seashore one day, he met an old man who told him to study the Prophets who prophesied about the faith in the true God and in His Son, Jesus Christ. Justin was impressed and started at once to make inquiries about Christianity. He studied it, embraced it and was baptized in 130 at age 30. In order to bring more pagans to the true God, he travelled and preached in Greece, Egypt and finally in Italy. He taught that Christianity is the true philosophy. Justin authored books defending Christianity. He also wrote about the Logos, Jesus Christ, the Divine Word; the Eucharist and Baptism; explanations of the Gospel, Apocalypse and some books in the Old Testament. Most famous among his writings were the two Apologies where he refuted the pagan beliefs and the lies they invented against the Christian religion. In another book, the Dialogue, he tried to convince the Roman rulers that their persecution of the Christians would profit them nothing. He also expressed his willingness to die for Christ, like the Christians whom he saw being martyred. One day Justin was preaching in Rome, when Roman soldiers picked him up together with his six students to appear before the Roman Prefect. They were convicted because they were Christians. Before the execution, the Prefect asked Justin: "Do you imagine that by dying you will enter Heaven and be rewarded?" Justin boldly answered: "I do not only imagine it; I know it." Next, they were asked to offer sacrifice to the pagan idols. Since they refused, they were scourged and then decapitated. Thus St. Justin the Martyr sealed his faith and love for Jesus Christ! May the gates of light be opened to those who do not yet believe in God, so that like St. Justin, they may faithfully follow his will. In this time of pandemic, am I determined to practice my Catholic belief in the face of criticisms from some religious sects?

La Porta | Renungan Harian Katolik - Daily Meditation according to Catholic Church liturgy
Reading is delivered Ajay Vardhan Singh and meditation delivered by Shalaza William, from the Church of Saint John Bosco in Jakarta, Indonesia. Tobit 2: 10-23; Rs psalm 112: 1-2.7bc-8.9; Mark 12: 13-17. TAKING THE IMAGE OF GOD Our meditation today has the theme: Taking the Image of God. We followers of Christ are like coins. The image of God has been stamped on us since the moment of our baptism. We have been sealed and bound by the Holy Spirit through the Sacrament of Confirmation. These ways of justifying us to be Christians reveal to the world that we belong to God. We are truly men and women of God. Holy persons like Saint Justin provide us with examples of how to live in God's image and likeness. Like the cows and buffaloes marked on their bodies by their owners, one who looks at the Roman coin would immediately tell what anyone really looks like or belongs to. On Roman coins people saw the face of the Emperor. Therefore, when Jesus saw the coin that the people were asking for His opinion, He immediately said that it belonged to Caesar, therefore, all obedience and dedication should be given to Caesar. From our part, as we have been branded and sealed in the image of God, we should always give attention, dedication and worship to God in our entire life. This means that we possess and show the image of God to the world: especially in the faces of emperors, rulers and powers of this world that there is an image of God which has a quality so different and even higher than those of this world. Coins can be seen and wanted everywhere, and it depends on human activities. They have prices from the cheapest to the most expensive, from buying a sheet of paper to billions of dollars to buy land or house. Like those coins, we who are branded in the image of God should also spread anywhere in the world, in various places and situations to become the salt and light for the world. For example, let us say about the face of God as the forgiving Lord present in you as a follower of Christ. There can be the act of forgiveness is very much needed even though a particular establishment of law obviously will challenge your right for justice and truth, while the due process of law will go its way because the dictation of the law cannot be retracted. If the world or most people pay less attention to or they even ignore forgiveness, patience, understanding and peace, it may be because the "emperor" of this world has captured them and leading their souls away from the way of God. In such condition of the world, the followers of Christ with coins of the face of God should shine and give their true testimony of faith. The light from the face of God should rule over the whole world and every human face should radiate that power and light of the Lord which is the truth that sustains life. Let's pray. In the name of the Father ... Our God Almighty, may we continue to be enthusiastic and diligent in wearing Your face in every moment of our lives, now and throughout the ages. Amen. Glory to the Father ... In the name of the Father ... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/media-la-porta/message

I was recently a guest on the Growing Up Catolico podcast. We had a great discussion about St. Justin Martyr and St. Moses The Black. We also discuss what we can learn from their lives and how the mercy of God is available to anyone.
It is no secret that the Roman Empire was hostile towards Christians. They levied several accusations towards them. St. Justin Martyr answers these in his works that we can still read today. In these works we find out about the Eucharist, the Mass, and Christian piety. This episode is from my weekly show on Deeper Truth Radio.
A fervent pursuant of truth, Justin Martyr studied philosophy after philosophy, but still couldn't find it. He devoted himself to the teachings of Plato, but wasn't even close to satisfied. He heard the terrible rumors and accusations against Christians, but he wasn't fully convinced. Then, one conversation with an old man walking along the seashore changed everything for this great saint. Join Michael Gormley as he dives into the life of Saint Justin Martyr and talks about how we can apply the key characteristics of his amazing apologetics into our own life. Saint Justin Martyr -- Pray for us!

"Sound doctrine doesn't enter into a hard and disobedient heart."
"I will prove to you, here and now, that we do not believe in groundless myths nor in teachings not based on reason, but in doctrines that are inspired by the Divine Spirit, abundant with power, and teeming with grace." St. Justin Martyr, born sometime between the years 100 and 110 AD, is considered by many to be the most important of the Greek apologists. His Dialogue with Trypho is the oldest extant Christian apology against Judaism -- though Justin is perhaps better known for his Apologies directed toward Roman Emperors and Senators. Many of the details we know about his life are drawn from these beginning chapters to Dialogue with Trypho, wherein Justin Martyr recounts the circumstances of his conversion. Justin describes how, as a young man, he flitted from one school of philosophy to another, finally landing among the Platonists... until one day, a strange encounter with a mysterious old man revealed to him Platonism's insufficiency.

Liturgy - where did it come from? What is liturgy - Merriam-Webster defines it as a rite or body of rites prescribed for public worship, or a customary repertoire of ideas, phrases, or observances. Would the passover be the first example of liturgy? Why do churches have different liturgical practices? Is liturgy more than merely congregational recitations on a weekly basis? Example, each week we recite the same four things before the sermon and sing the doxology before we leave… How is liturgy different from sacraments (or ordinances as Baptists like to call them - why don’t Baptists like the word sacraments?) Where in Scripture does it say that Sunday worship should include various liturgical proceedings? What are some good and potentially bad things about liturgy in the church? (Example - repetition can lead to vain repetitions where people are going through the motions) My note - During church we are worshipping God and if God said there’s a way to worship him we need to get ourselves in line to that. Church isn’t about me it’s about Him. St Justin Martyr (thx internet) - “But we, after we have thus washed him who has been convinced and has assented to our teaching, bring him to the place where those who are called brethren are assembled, in order that we may offer hearty prayers in common for ourselves and for the baptized person, and for all others in every place, that we may be counted worthy, now that we have learned the truth, by our works also to be found good citizens and keepers of the commandments, so that we may be saved with an everlasting salvation. Having ended the prayers, we salute one another with a kiss. There is then brought to the president (i.e. presiding Presbyter) of the brethren bread and a cup of wine mixed with water; and he taking them, gives praise and glory to the Father of the universe, through the name of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, and offers thanks at considerable length for our being counted worthy to receive these things at His hands. And when he has concluded the prayers and thanksgivings, all the people present express their assent by saying Amen. This word Amen answers in the Hebrew language to γένοιτο (so be it). And when the president has given thanks, and all the people have expressed their assent, those who are called by us deacons give to each of those present to partake of the bread and wine mixed with water over which the thanksgiving was pronounced, and to those who are absent they carry away a portion.” Some say the first “church service” was Acts 2:41-47. Is the accurate? So worship was visible in OT and is invisible in NT
