Hl. Johannes vom Kreuz, Bekenner und Kirchenlehrer
Dienstag nach dem 24. Sonntag nach Pfingsten
Gedenktag des heiligen Chrysogonus, Märtyrer
Der heilige Johannes vom Kreuz (San Juan de la Cruz), geboren 1542 in Kastilien, zählt zu den größten Mystikern und Kirchenlehrern der Kirche. Als Karmelit trat er in jungen Jahren dem Orden bei und wurde vom tiefen Wunsch nach der vollkommenen Gottesvereinigung geprägt. Gemeinsam mit der heiligen Teresa von Ávila wirkte er als Hauptfigur bei der Reform des Karmelitenordens und begründete den sogenannten Unbeschuhten Karmelitenzweig. Aufgrund seiner Reformbemühungen erlitt er viele Widerstände, ja sogar Gefangenschaft, ertrug dies jedoch in großer Geduld und Demut.
In seinen Schriften, insbesondere dem "Dunklen Nacht der Seele" und dem "Aufstieg zum Berge Karmel", schildert er eindrucksvoll die inneren Wege der Seele zu Gott, das Ringen mit eigenen Schwächen und die Hingabe an Gottes Willen. Johannes‘ Lehre betont die absolute Vorrangstellung der göttlichen Liebe, die Läuterung des Herzens und die radikale Nachfolge Christi, wodurch er zu einem Leitstern für das geistliche Leben vieler Generationen wurde. Sein Einfluss reicht weit über die Grenzen des Karmelitenordens hinaus und hat die gesamte Spiritualität der Kirche geprägt.
Die Kirche ehrt ihn an diesem Tag als Bekenner und Kirchenlehrer, um sein Beispiel der Hingabe und seine tiefgründige Theologie in besonderer Weise zu würdigen. Der Festtag erinnert die Gläubigen daran, dass die volle Einheit mit Gott – umgesetzt im täglichen Leben und im Gebet – das höchste Ziel des christlichen Daseins ist.

2 Tim 4:1-8
Caríssime: Testíficor coram Deo, et Iesu Christo, qui iudicatúrus est vivos et mórtuos, per advéntum ipsíus et regnum eius: prǽdica verbum, insta opportúne, importune: árgue, óbsecra, íncrepa in omni patiéntia, et doctrína. Erit enim tempus, cum sanam doctrínam non sustinébunt, sed ad sua desidéria, coacervábunt sibi magistros, pruriéntes áuribus, et a veritáte quidem audítum avértent, ad fábulas autem converténtur. Tu vero vígila, in ómnibus labóra, opus fac Evangelístæ, ministérium tuum imple. Sóbrius esto. Ego enim iam delíbor, et tempus resolutiónis meæ instat. Bonum certámen certávi, cursum consummávi, fidem servávi. In réliquo repósita est mihi coróna iustítiæ, quam reddet mihi Dóminus in illa die, iustus iudex: non solum autem mihi, sed et iis, qui díligunt advéntum eius.
℟. Deo grátias.

Lesson from the second letter of St Paul the Apostle to Timothy
2 Tim 4:1-8
Dearly beloved: I charge thee, before God and Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead, by his coming, and his kingdom: Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine. For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but, according to their own desires, they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears: And will indeed turn away their hearing from the truth, but will be turned unto fables. But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thy ministry. Be sober. For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Matt 5:13-19
In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Vos estis sal terræ. Quod si sal evanúerit, in quo saliétur? Ad níhilum valet ultra, nisi ut mittátur foras, et conculcétur ab homínibus. Vos estis lux mundi. Non potest cívitas abscóndi supra montem pósita. Neque accéndunt lucérnam, et ponunt eam sub módio, sed super candelábrum, ut lúceat ómnibus, qui in domo sunt. Sic luceat lux vestra coram homínibus, ut vídeant ópera vestra bona, et gloríficent Patrem vestrum, qui in cœlis est. Nolíte putáre, quóniam veni sólvere legem aut prophétas: non veni sólvere, sed adimplére. Amen, quippe dico vobis, donec tránseat cœlum et terra, iota unum aut unus apex non præteríbit a lege, donec ómnia fiant. Qui ergo sólverit unum de mandátis istis mínimis, et docúerit sic hómines, mínimus vocábitur in regno cœlórum: qui autem fécerit et docúerit, hic magnus vocábitur in regno cœlórum.

℟. Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
Matt 5:13-19
In that time Jesus said to His disciples: You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men. You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house. So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled. He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But he that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
