As we've seen dozens of times, Roman Catholics do not understand that verse or its context. We are most certainly to judge right from wrong according to the spiritual discernment given to us.
Mother Teresa is not to be judged by the likes of you and found wanting. She has been judged by God and is to be loved, emulated, and venerated.
The evidence of her own words denies your opinion. She is to be pitied because her own words tell us of her lack of faith, denial of God and Christ, and her emotional distress.
Not much to emulate or venerate there.
In spite of her human frailties and doubts she never gave in to those doubts and daily gave herself to the work of God and those in need.
Of course she "gave in to her doubts." She gave in to her doubts by denying Christ and God. If that's not "giving in to her doubts," nothing is.
You are missing the most important fact in Mother Teresa's life. She did good work, but she most certainly did NOT "daily gave herself to the work of God." She denied God. She did the work for her own satisfaction or because she had nothing else to do or because she felt moved by the plight of the less-fortunate, but she did not "give herself to the work of God."
Just as true courage is doing what is right and needed in spite of fear, true faith is doing what is right and needed in spite of doubts.
Read the Bible. "Everything not of faith is sin." While her work no doubt helped a lot of people, it is meaningless if it isn't done in the name of Christ.
Every saint has a past and every sinner a future. Its not what we did yesterday that assures our salvation, it is what we do next.
Amen. And what did Mother Teresa "do next?"
For over 40 years until she died she doubted God, denied Christ, refused to pray and generally was without faith.
That is not to be emulated or venerated or praised. She is to be pitied. Her only hope is that she was given faith before she died. And none of us will know whether was rescued or not.
Faith is not a spiritual Prozac that permits the faithful to giddily step over the bodies of the dead and dying and never ask the purpose or reason for the suffering.
Even though enlightened by Him in whom it believes, faith is often lived in darkness and can be put to the test. The world we live in often seems very far from the one promised us by faith. Our experiences of evil and suffering, injustice and death, seem to contradict the Good News; they can shake our faith and become a temptation against it.
Saints are not those who never contemplate and doubt, they are those who overcome their doubts and reaffirm their faith. They trust in God when their human limitations and weaknesses are tested.
I will not pity Mother Teresa as I pity you. On any given day Mother Teresa gave more of herself, shared more Christianity and exhibited more beatitude before noon than you have in your entire life.
Those who can find so little charity in their lives that they can judge Mother Teresa are the ones deserving of pity. I will continue to love and venerate Mother Teresa.
