The triple A : Adoration - Love - Welcome

“What manifests My Father's glory is that you were bearing much fruit. You will then be truly My disciples. ” John 15.8

Triple A is the maximum score a company or country can obtain from rating agencies. We thus measure the solvency of a state or a company. The Church must obtain this note in view of the mission incumbent upon her. Jesus said : “You are the light of the world.” It is not nothing to be like a beacon in the night of the world and in that of our neighbor. The Lord adds : “Neither do we light a lamp to put it under a bucket, but we put it on its support and it lights up all who are in the house.” He said again : “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its flavor, what will it be used for ? It only serves to be thrown out and trampled on by men.” As Christians, we must be true worshipers, turned to Him from whom we receive everything, but we also have an obligation to turn to others. Worship must instill in us the urge to share the riches that we receive from above. We must be light and salt for someone ! A first action is to share our faith because faith in God not only allows us to finally give meaning to life, but it saves it. She passes from death to life, and even to eternal life. The apostle James writes : “If you fulfill the royal law according to the scripture : 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself,' you are doing well. But if you play favoritism, you are committing a sin ; the law denounces you as being guilty” (2. 8-9). To not welcome the other is to refuse him what God offers to all! If I love God and adore him, if I love my brother and my sister, if I love my neighbor, I can only seek to “save” each other. No to be saved, for I am not a savior, but a worshiper of the Savior ; so I have to show where salvation is. This is where we are Christians, that is, “little Christ”.
