"It is not possible to find Jesus outside the church," Pope Francis said in his Mass homily for the memorial of St George, his patron saint, on April 23. "It is the mother church who gives us Jesus, gives us identity," he said. The Pope also said: "The great Paul VI said it is 'an absurd dichotomy' to want to live with Jesus without the church, to follow Jesus outside the church, to love Jesus without the church."
「不可能在教會之外找到耶穌。」這是教宗方濟在他主保聖人聖喬治在4月23日紀念日彌撒中的講道重點。教宗這樣解釋：「是（慈）母教會給我們耶穌，給我們身份。」他還表示：教宗保祿六世說期望沒有教會，但與耶穌同生，或者在教會外，跟隨耶穌，或者不要教會，但愛耶穌，皆是荒謬的分歧。
Where the Church is, there is Christ
