FUTURE POPE LEO XIV IS FEATURED IN Pope Benedict XVI Documentary

,,The FUTURE Pope Leo XIV was featured in this old documentary about Pope Benedict XVI! They had St. Augustine of Hippo in common. Hopefully, the new Pope will use what he learned from Pope Benedict XVI to help bring order to the Catholic Church and make it more Christ-centered, defend the teachings of Jesus Christ and Catholic dogma, and the Papal Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church. We shall see.

self on the holy theologians of the

0:02

early church the church fathers their

0:05

spiritual interpretation of scripture is

0:08

intimately connected to the life of the

0:10

church his favorite among the church

0:13

fathers is St augustine of

0:15

Hippo a great convert born in North

0:18

Africa at the end of the 4th century

0:28

i wanted to come to Pavilla to venerate

0:30

the mortal remains of St augustine to

0:33

express the homage of the whole church

0:34

to one of her greatest

0:36

fathers and my personal devotion and

0:38

gratitude to this saint who played such

0:41

an important part in my life as a

0:43

theologian and pastor but I would say

0:46

even more as a man and a

0:53

priest i think Pope Benedict finds in so

0:56

many different parts of Augustine uh

0:58

elements of his spirituality of his love

1:01

of of the word of God of the need to as

1:04

as the prophets say as Augustine says to

1:06

devour the word of God and to to delve

1:08

into the beauty that God reveals to us

1:11

through his word uh Augustine did that

1:14

constantly i think Pope Benedict does

1:15

that in his own writing in his own

1:17

preaching time and again and he finds in

1:20

Augustine I think uh kind of an echo of

1:23

some of his own experience as as a man

1:25

as a pastor as bishop and uh as

1:31

theologian ever since he wrote his

1:33

doctorate on the theology of this 4th

1:35

century saint the Pope has been inspired

1:38

by St augustine's lifelong passion for

1:40

the truth his honesty and his

1:42

intellectual humility
