22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time: Faith is a Relationship, Not a Set of Rules

Description

Jesus’ contention with the Pharisees and scribes was that they were convinced that their rigorous observance of the clear and well-defined norms had given them the sense that they had done their duty and thus have secured God’s approval. It is clear from the Gospel today that Jesus refuses a religion that speaks of relations with God and us in terms of merely obedience and obligations. The only obligation seems to be the openness to love.
