Saints Peter and Paul, Apostles 29 June 2008 On October 12, 2007, Pope Benedict XVI inaugurated the Bronze Door, the nearly 400-year-old but newly refurbished principal entrance to the Vatican Apostolic Palace in Rome. In his remarks, the Holy Father said, this door assumes a symbolic and spiritual significance. Those who come to meet Peter's successor pass through here. It is Benedict's hope that those who pass through these doors will feel his embrace. Jesus asks his disciples two very important questions: Who do the people say the Son of Man is, and who do you say that I am? Imagine Jesus' joy in Peter's response-You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. Peter didn't hesitate in speaking from his heart, and was rewarded with the embrace of Jesus Christ and the authority to govern the Church. What can we learn from Peter's immediate, heartfelt response? When we recite the Apostles' Creed, we renew to ourselves our mission as members of the Church to be apostolic, to carry out the message of Christ's love to the world (CCC 863). Just as Peter was acknowledged for his true faith received from God, and just as Paul and the apostles traveled throughout the land, we are called to know the gift of God's grace, and to share our gift whenever and wherever possible. ©2008 Liturgical Publications Inc
