"When you speak these things, they will not listen. When you call to them, they will not answer. 'This is the nation that would not listen to the Lord their God. Truth has perished among them. Raise up a dirge on the barren heights, for the Lord has rejected and abandoned them under His wrath. For the Judeans have done what is contemptible in My sight.' This is the Lord’s declaration. 'They have set up detestable things in the house that is called by My name — and defiled it.'" Jeremiah 7:27-30

"Now the serpent was more subtle and cunning than any beast which the Lord had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed commanded, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”
And the woman replied to the serpent, “We may eat the fruits of any other of the trees of the garden; but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat from it, nor shall you touch it, lest it may cause you to lose your life.’”
Then the serpent said to the woman, “Surely you will not die if you take it and eat it. For God himself knows that on the day that you grasp it and eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you yourselves will be like gods, knowing the depths of both good and evil.”
Genesis 3:1-4
"For some time now, our whole European culture has been moving with a tortured tension that is growing from decade to decade, as toward a catastrophe: restlessly, violently, headlong, like a river that wants to reach the end, that no longer thinks, that is afraid to think.”
Let us pray for those whose hearts have grown cold, and become hardened against His grace by greed, fear, and the seductive illusions of pride.
We ask to receive the three great gifts of our Lord's suffering and triumph: repentance, forgiveness, and thankfulness—so that we may obtain abundant life, and the peace that surpasses all understanding.
