Do you know what is the greatest mystery of the Holy Mass?

Il Holy Sacrifice of the Mass it is the main way we Christians have to worship God.

Through it we receive the graces necessary to fight against sins and to ask for the forgiveness of venial sins; to maintain a deep communion with God, with brothers and sisters.

Through the Holy Sacrifice it is also possible appease divine wrath, celebrate the glory of God in Jesus Christ, in the Virgin Mary and in the Saints; we can also take souls from purgatory to heaven.

La Mass was instituted by God himself, Jesus Christ, in the Last Supper, as a way to keep present and alive, making it perpetual, the Holy Sacrifice of the Cross that he would have accomplished, in favor of the salvation of humanity fallen into sin.

By shedding his blood, Jesus definitively atoned for all guilt, paid all debts, wiped away all tears, purified all that was impure, sanctified all those who fell into sin.

From that Sacrifice derives the choice: either to embrace the Kingdom of God (through baptism, the experience of the sacraments and flight from sin) or the reign of Satan (live according to our will, without repentance).

In the Mass we relive that moment of Salvation. The Body of God and his Blood are separated, that is, there is immolation, even if the victim, Our Lord Jesus Christ, is killed in a bloodless way (without pain).

We can say that the Mass is the celebration and the remembrance of Jesus' death on the Cross. With the death of Christ we celebrate his glorious Resurrection, but this does not make the Mass a "feast", but a moment of adoration and contemplation of the glory of God, which is a "feast", but not as we understand it today.

Thus, Sunday is the day when we Christians gather to celebrate the dead and risen God, to remember the heroes of the Faith and to communicate with the Lord at the Eucharistic banquet.

It is also a time of fraternal communion and of rest and joy for the whole community. In other words, not going to Holy Mass on Sundays is a 'mortal sin', since it directly affects the third commandment of God's law: "Remember to sanctify the feasts".

San Pio of Pietrelcina he said that we must attend Mass “as did the Blessed Virgin and the pious women. Like St. John the Evangelist he witnessed the Eucharistic Sacrifice and the bloody Sacrifice of the Cross ”.
