Theological letter to the Pope

Zusatztext

It is time for a new Jubilee, in which to open wide once again the Holy Door to offer the living experience of God's love, which kindles in the heart the certain hope of salvation in Christ. This conviction led Bishop Antonio Staglianò to write a Theological Letter to the Pope. The central point of the author's reflection is the affirmation of a "jubilee Christocentrism," which becomes the foundation of the announcement of hope for all humanity and justifies Christian optimism as the judgment and perspective of faith on historical events. This is the hope that neither deceives nor disappoints, because it has passed through the testimony of an incarnate love that pushes the gift of life to death.
