　　1 Corinthians 1:10 In-Context

　　8 He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

　　9 God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

　　10 I appeal to you, brothers and sisters,The Greek word for "brothers and sisters" ("adelphoi" ) refers here to believers, both men and women, as part of God's family; also in verses 11 and 26; and in 2:1; 3:1; 4:6; 6:8; 7:24, 29; 10:1; 11:33; 12:1; 14:6, 20, 26, 39; 15:1, 6, 50, 58; 16:15, 20. in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.

　　11 My brothers and sisters, some from Chloe's household have informed me that there are quarrels among you.

　　12 What I mean is this: One of you says, "I follow Paul"; another, "I follow Apollos"; another, "I follow CephasThat is, Peter "; still another, "I follow Christ."

Don’t Blame Markets, But Sin for Environmental Problems
Kishore Jayabalan, director of the Acton Insitute’s Rome office – Istituto Acton – has issued the following statement today regarding Pope Francis’s much-awaited enviromental encyclicalLaudato Si’.Among other things, Jayabalannotes: “[Francis] seems to blame markets, over-consumption and especially finance, rather than human sin, for all our environmental problems.” I appreciate and e Pope Francis’s encyclical,Laudato Si’, which challenges us to re-examine how we treat the earth and each other. These are non-negotiables for Catholics and there is much we can do...
Samuel Gregg: Pope Francis’ Economic Blind Spots
Samuel Gregg, director of research at the Acton Institute, spoke with Business Spectator about the economic message of the new encyclical: When you read through the text, you find the free market, and finance in particular, is identified more or less as responsible for many environmental problems, Dr Gregg said. It’s almost a subterranean theme of the encyclical …In many respects it’s a caricature of market economies. Read more at “Pope Delivers Strong Message on Climate Change.” from Business Spectator....
Social Justice and the Spirit of Association
What is social justice? Is it a vision of a perfectly just society? Is it an ideal set of government policies?Is it a particular theory or practice? Is it a virtue? A religious concept?

In a lecture at Acton University on his ing book, Social Justice: What It Is, What It Isn’t, Michael Novak soughtto answer somethese questions with a particular framework around intermediary institutions. Offeringa broad survey of the term’s origins, history, and modern use and...

Prediction Regarding Laudato Si’ Turns Out To Be Accurate
Who could have predicted, six months ago, what the encyclical Laudato Si’, would hold in store? Seems like Jennifer Roback Morse could. In a January 2015 piece for The Daily Caller, Morse made some predictions that turned out to be spot on. I do not know what he is going to say. Neither, dear reader, does anyone else you are likely to read. However, I can tell you two things that he will certainly not say. And those two unsaid...
Why monasteries succeed but secular communes fail
In a lecture on markets and monasticism at Acton University, Dylan Pahman gave a fascinating overview and analysis of the interaction between Christian monasticism and markets. He’s written on this before and has a longer paper on the topic as well. In the talk, he highlighted a range of facts and features, from monastic teachings on wealth and poverty to the historical realities of munities and enterprises. Over the centuries, monasteries have contributed a host of products and services to...
Peter Johnson: This Pope Gets It – Modern Bourgeoisie Need A Swift Kick In The Butt
In the early 2000s, I spent two years working for the Peace Corps, teaching subsistence farmers modern beekeeping practices to produce honey for consumption and sale. Despite the time and distance, I have continued to maintain close relationships with many of the desperately poor people with whom I worked. Because of my experience abroad—living first for years first in Paraguay and then Senegal, West Africa—I have long maintained a nagging sense that modern Western culture has a general apathy toward...
Environment Encyclical Is ‘Well Intentioned, Deeply Flawed’
Samuel Gregg, Acton’s director of research, writes in The American Spectator today about Laudato Si’, Pope Francis’ encyclical which addresses environmental issues. Gregg says that part of the encyclical’s intent is to add to the global discussion regarding the environment and to the climate change debate. However, Gregg believes that the encyclical, rather than enlightening, is muddying the waters. To be sure, there is much about today’s global economy that merits criticism. The encyclical rightly underscores the problem of bailing...
A Guide to Laudato Si: A Section-By-Section Summary of Pope Francis’ Encyclical on the Environment
Pope Francis has released his eagerly anticipated encyclical on the environment, Laudato Si’. While the document deserves a close reading, its extreme length (80 pages/45,000 words) will make it difficult for many people to process. To help highlight some of the key points I’ve produced a section-by-section summary of the entire encyclical. As with any summary, much of the meaning and context will be lost. But I hope this will provide you with a starting point for greater engagement with...
‘Sister Earth’: Pope Francis Reads G.K. Chesterton?
Pope Francis’ new encyclical on the environment, Laudato Si, is generating discussion across the web. For a round-up of responses and reactions from Acton, see Acton Speaks on the Environment. There’s plenty left to explore, respond, and reflect on, but in the meantime, it’s worth noting an interesting parallel with another great Catholic thinker (as passed along by a friend of mine). The beginning of the environmental encyclical leads off with the following statement about Earth being our “sister”: LAUDATO...
