Altruism: a Revolution

I would like to ask permission to share with you, esteemed readers, some lines that were inspired by the efforts of Good Will.

According to our belief in the value of altruism, in my literary essay Sociologia do Universo [Sociology of the Universe], I stress that it is not...

Never Give Up on Those We Love

I see the following verse as one of the most touching from the Holy Gospel of Jesus regarding the Charity of God to us: The Mission of the Son of God (Good News of Christ according to John 3:16) “For God so loved the world that He gave His One and Only Son, that whoever...

Jesus’ New Commandment: The Purest Air We Breath

When I was 18 years old, I wrote down a thought I have presented in my talks and lectures for decades: Love is not the vile expression of desire. It reaches far beyond, above earthly mistakes, while also being a part of human beings, keeping them morally alive. As an unremovable...

It Seems as If It Was Just Yesterday . . .

I am celebrating yet another year of work at the Legion of Good Will (LGW). The sun was rising on June 29, 1956—St. Peter and St. Paul Day. I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. At 15, as if by intuition, I turned on the radio, and Tamoio Radio was on air. We were...

Teresa and Ten Coins

As the saying goes, thought is power. And that is true. In a way, it restates what Jesus taught us in His Gospel according to Mark 9:23 and 11:24: “Everything is possible for one who believes. Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it,...

Safety in God

Wherever and whenever we are with God we shall always be safe. The Heavenly Father is the Divine Feeling of Charity, which nourishes our existence. In his book Discurso no Colégio Anchieta [Speech at Colégio Anchieta] (1903), Rui ...

Endless Hope

Some say that “Hope is the last to die.” But we, in the Religion of the Third Millennium, eloquently affirm that Hope is never extinguished, since Hope is Jesus, the Ecumenical Christ, the Sublime Statesman! As I wrote in the third volume of the Sagradas Diretrizes...

Overcoming Difficulties

“Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every Word that comes from the mouth of God.”   Jesus (Matthew 4:4) In His Ecumenical Prayer—the Lord’s Prayer—Christ talks about our daily bread, that is, above all, the transubstantial bread, food that does not...

Charity Sustains Human Life

Charity—understood as Universal Fraternity, therefore an instrument for the true progress of the peoples—is a topic always addressed in my articles, because I consider it to be essential for our survival. Thus, I find it appropriate to continue with my analysis of this precept, in view of the High-...
