A beautiful homily, a genuine sermon, must begin with the first proclamation, with the proclamation of salvation. There is nothing more solid, deep and sure than this proclamation.

The first genocide of the 21st century was against you, the Armenian people.

A Christian who does not protect creation, who does not let it grow, is a Christian who does not care about the work of God; that work that was born from the love of God for us. ... And this is the first response to the first creation: protect creation, make it grow.

Be the first to seek to bring good, do not grow accustomed to evil, but defeat it.

It also happens to me that when I meet a clericalist, I suddenly become anti-clerical. Clericalism should not have anything to do with Christianity. St. Paul, who was the first to speak to the Gentiles, the pagans, to believers in other religions, was the first to teach us that.

The most important thing is the first proclamation: Jesus Christ has saved you.
