聖保祿會對保祿家庭的成員說:你們要認識、愛慕、跟隨導師耶穌。【要效法我,如同我屬於基督】。這份邀請是普世性的,針對所有的信眾和跟隨者。對於我們要求更多,因為我們是他的孩子。孩子們承繼父親的生命;因此,為了活出耶穌基督,我們要在保祿內生活,藉著他、並為他而生活。
Saint Paul says to the Paulines: know, love, follow the Divine Master Jesus. «Be my imitators as I am of Christ». This invitation is general, for all his faithful and devotees. For us there is more, since we are children. Children have the father’s life; therefore to live in him, by him, for him, to live Jesus Christ (ACV, pp. 62-63).
