Synopsis "Sanctuary of Holiness (in English)"
We should think about so much hidden holiness there is in the Church," Pope Francis said, "Christians who remain in Jesus. Sinners, eh? We are all [sinners]. And yet sometimes one of these Christians commits some grave sin, but is penitent, seeks pardon, and this is great: the capacity to seek pardon, to not confuse sin with virtue, to know well where virtue is, and where sin is. These are founded on rock, and the rock is Christ. They follow the path of Christ, they follow Him." "The proud, the vain, the 'Christians in appearance' will be demolished, humbled," the Pope said, while " the poor will be those who triumph, the poor in spirit, those who in the presence of God consider themselves to be nothing, the humble, and they carry forward salvation, putting into practice the Word of the Lord." He continued, citing St Bernard: "Today we are, tomorrow we will not be. Think, man, what will become of you: [you will be] the food of worms... The worms will eat us, all of us. If we do not have this rock, we will end up trampled down."
