天主聖言是有效的

天主聖言是有效的，不要常因我們自己的因素而削弱它的效能。聖保祿是怎樣宣講的？宗徒們是怎樣宣講的？教會的教父們又如何宣講？宣講需要努力、堅持、熱忱、心意純正：它要求我們有耶稣的心和祂對人靈的愛。

The Word of God has innate power: it often depends on us not to reduce it. How did St. Paul preach? How did the Apostles preach? How did the great doctors of the Church preach? This ministry requires hard work, perseverance, zeal, and right intention: it requires that we possess the heart of Jesus, and his love for souls (CISP, p. 827).
