Believe because of your word

“We no longer believe because of your word; for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is truly the savior of the world.” (JN 4: 42)

“We believe because of your word” says today’s Gospel, and I hope we will see in heaven how many people we inspired by our words and testimonies. Fides ex auditu (faith comes from hearing), says theology. “For we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is truly the saviour of the world.” This is why He became the Word of God, why He spent 33 years teaching us, and why He is with us also in the Bible

“Lord, you are truly the Savior of the world; give me living water, that I may never thirst again.” (Gospel Acclamation)
