Pope Gregory 1 is an unknown name in history. The only one
if I’m not mistaken who was humble even if he held the highest authority,
defended that all bishops were successors to Peter, did not excommunicate
bishops who were
against him
and didn’t make any demands as pope.
A humble of
humbles as I would describe him. Now I know that not all popes are bad. It just
proves that God really is in control of things. Hopefully, someday someone will
be like him as humble of humbles and will control the highest authority as pope
and to bring back people to the truth.
It’s also the very first time I heard that for Muslims,
heaven is a place where man feast and served by beautiful women. I laughed. I
was thinking what kind of man was Muhammad and made up stories about heaven as
something like that. Maybe someone influenced him of that view or he
misinterpreted when he read the Bible. I’m not so sure but I think he read the
Bible but in the long run of reading, he decided to stop. That’s when probably
he decided to make a religion.
From the first day of
the class up until now, I learned so many things that gradually changed this
mindset of mine. As for this week, I learned that all followers of Christ are
to be regarded as equal because we are all the same and follow Christ.
Although, Apostle Paul by the help of God, wrote that some have to be shepherds
of the flock. A shepherd that helps us
to do what we should in this life, have more relationship to Christ and to
share the gift that God gave us and reconciling the lost souls to God.
When I will be in the ministry, I should
consider all followers of Christ as equal regardless of what they have achieved
in life. I should treat them all equally even if they are the leaders in the
church or in any organization, as long as they serve God. I should learn to
forgive and accept those people who are trying to change in their life for good
slowly.
