A Message From Fr. Roberto
Wake up to…Jesus; Wake up to…your Catholic faith; Wake up to…dropping your nets.
“Angels-in-Training” Babysitting at 10:30 Mass Every Week for children 2-6!
In the Serendipity Room beneath the rectory.
Jesus Descended into Hell
During Lent, we professed the Apostles’ Creed at our Masses
instead of the Nicene Creed. One of the most interesting lines of the
Apostles’ Creed is “He descended into Hell.” So, did Jesus go to hell
between his death and resurrection? The answer is “yes” and below is
the explanation of this line given in the Catechism of the Catholic
Church complete with footnotes below.
#632 The frequent New Testament affirmations that Jesus was "raised
from the dead" presuppose that the crucified one sojourned in the
realm of the dead prior to his resurrection.477 This was the first meaning given in the apostolic preaching to Christ's descent into hell: that
Jesus, like all men, experienced death and in his soul joined the others
in the realm of the dead. But he descended there as Saviour, proclaiming the Good News to the spirits imprisoned there.478
http://www.calledtocommunion.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/ChristDescent-into-Hell.jpg
#633 Scripture calls the abode of the dead, to which the dead Christ went down, "hell" - Sheol in Hebrew or Hades
in Greek - because those who are there are deprived of the vision of God.479 Such is the case for all the dead,
whether evil or righteous, while they await the Redeemer: which does not mean that their lot is identical, as Jesus
shows through the parable of the poor man Lazarus who was received into "Abraham's bosom":480 "It is precisely
these holy souls, who awaited their Saviour in Abraham's bosom, whom Christ the Lord delivered when he descended into hell."481 Jesus did not descend into hell to deliver the damned, nor to destroy the hell of damnation, but
to free the just who had gone before him.482
#634 "The gospel was preached even to the dead."483 The descent into hell brings the Gospel
message of salvation to complete fulfilment. This is the last phase of Jesus' messianic mission,
a phase which is condensed in time but vast in its real significance: the spread of Christ's redemptive work to all men of all times and all places, for all who are saved have been made
sharers in the redemption.

wp-content/uploads/2013/03/
Jesus-descended-into-hell.jpg
#635 Christ went down into the depths of death so that "the dead will hear the voice of the Son
of God, and those who hear will live."484 Jesus, "the Author of life", by dying destroyed "him
who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and [delivered] all those who through fear of
death were subject to lifelong bondage."485 Henceforth the risen Christ holds "the keys of
Death and Hades", so that "at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on
earth and under the earth."486

Un Mensaje de Padre Roberto
Despiértate a...Jesús; Despiértate a...tu fe católica; Despiértate a...dejar tus redes.
Jesús Descendió a los Infiernos
Durante la Cuaresma, profesamos el Credo de los
Apóstoles en nuestras Misas en lugar del Credo Niceno.
Una de las líneas más interesantes del Credo de los Apóstoles es "descendió a los infiernos". Así, ¿fue Jesús al
infierno entre su muerte y resurrección? La respuesta es
"sí", y debajo está la explicación de esta línea dada en el
Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica.
#632 Las frecuentes afirmaciones del Nuevo Testamento según las cuales Jesús "resucitó de entre los
muertos" (Hch 3, 15; Rm 8, 11; 1 Co 15, 20) presuponen
que, antes de la resurrección, permaneció en la morada
http://www.calledtocommunion.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Christ-Descentde los muertos (cf. Hb 13, 20). Es el primer sentido que

dio la predicación apostólica al descenso de Jesús a los
infiernos; Jesús conoció la muerte como todos los hombres y se reunió con ellos en la morada de los
muertos. Pero ha descendido como Salvador proclamando la buena nueva a los espíritus que estaban allí
detenidos (cf. 1 P 3,18-19).
#633 La Escritura llama infiernos, sheol, o hades (cf. Flp 2, 10; Hch 2, 24; Ap 1, 18; Ef 4, 9) a la
morada de los muertos donde bajó Cristo después de muerto, porque los que se encontraban allí estaban
privados de la visión de Dios (cf. Sal 6, 6; 88, 11-13). Tal era, en efecto, a la espera del Redentor, el estado de todos los muertos, malos o justos (cf. Sal 89, 49;1 S 28, 19; Ez 32, 17-32), lo que no quiere decir que su suerte sea idéntica como lo enseña Jesús en la parábola del pobre Lázaro recibido en el "seno
de Abraham" (cf. Lc 16, 22-26). "Son precisamente estas almas santas, que esperaban a su Libertador en
el seno de Abraham, a las que Jesucristo liberó cuando descendió a los infiernos" (Catecismo Romano,
1, 6, 3). Jesús no bajó a los infiernos para liberar a los condenados (cf. Concilio de Roma, año 745: DS,
587) ni para destruir el infierno de la condenación (cf. Benedicto XII, Libelo Cum dudum: DS, 1011;
Clemente VI, c. Super quibusdam: ibíd., 1077) sino para liberar a los justos que le habían precedido (cf.
Concilio de Toledo IV, año 625: DS, 485; cf. también Mt 27, 52-53).
#634 "Hasta a los muertos ha sido anunciada la Buena Nueva ..." (1 P 4,
6). El descenso a los infiernos es el pleno cumplimiento del anuncio
evangélico de la salvación. Es la última fase de la misión mesiánica de
Jesús, fase condensada en el tiempo pero inmensamente amplia en su
significado real de extensión de la obra redentora a todos los hombres de
todos los tiempos y de todos los lugares porque todos los que se salvan se
hacen partícipes de la Redención.

#635 Cristo, por tanto, bajó a la profundidad de la muerte (cf. Mt 12, 40;
Rm 10, 7; Ef 4, 9) para "que los muertos oigan la voz del Hijo de Dios y
los que la oigan vivan" (Jn 5, 25). Jesús, "el Príncipe de la vida" (Hch 3,
15) aniquiló "mediante la muerte al señor de la muerte, es decir, al diablo
y libertó a cuantos, por temor a la muerte, estaban de por vida sometidos
a esclavitud "(Hb 2, 14-15). En adelante, Cristo resucitado "tiene las llaves de la muerte y del Infierno" (Ap 1, 18) y "al nombre de Jesús toda
rodilla se doble en el cielo, en la tierra y en los abismos" (Flp 2, 10).
Angel
A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how
am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything
but sing and smile to be happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel
your angel's love and be very happy."
Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people
talk to me if I don't know the language?"
God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience
and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."
"Who will protect me?"
God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking it's life."
"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even
though I will always be next to you."
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly
asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."
"You will simply call her, 'Mom.'"
