“Once humility is acquired, charity willcome to life; a burning flame devouringthe corruption of vice and filling theheart so full that there is no place forvanity.”
- St. Vincent Ferrer
A Word From... Saint Vincent Ferrer
“Let us make three tents”
It must be known that in Sacred Scripture the devout hearing and listening to the Gospelteachings are called tabernacles, or tents, For if we analyze well the usefulness of tents, rightlycompared to Gospel teachings. For when tents or tabernacles are pitched by soldiers, they are donefor three reasons: The first reason is because of the heat of the sun, to keep cool. The second, againstthe wind, for protection. Third, for shelter against the rain.
All these benefits the Gospel gives to those who listen careful, and this against the ardor ofthe flesh, which moves many into sins of lust. Some are tempted to avarice, others into other sins -these teachings, therefore, give cool shelter. Second, in this world there are many winds and stormsand temptations of demons, but not inside the tent - i.e., of prayer and contemplation. For prayerand contemplation keep out the temptations of the devil. Third, there are great rains and floods, andthese are the world, which offers many occasions for sinning. But enter the tent of the Gospel andyou will find there a remedy.
And so Isaiah says, For over all, his glory will be shelter and protection: shade from theparching heat of day, refuge and cover from storm and rain (Is 4:6).
Saint Vincer Ferrer (+ 1419) was a Spanish Dominican preacher. This is an excerpt from thethree volume editions of the Sermons of Saint Vincent.
