Pope Francis’ Easter Urbi et Orbi


The last word is the resurrection

Pope Francis greeted the faithful with “Jesus is risen from the dead!”

He then said that Jesus used of the image of the grain of wheat that falls to the earth and dies to prophesy his own death and resurrection.
The Pope reminds us that Jesus is the grain of wheat "sowed by God in the furrows of the earth" which, by the power of His love “humbles itself and gives itself to the very end, and thus truly renews the world.” It is a power that still bears fruit even though the world bears so many “furrows” of violence and injustice. That fruit is hope, for “we Christians believe and know that Christ’s resurrection is the true hope of the world,” Pope Francis said.

Just before extending the "Urbi et Orbi" blessing, Pope Francis reminded the people in the square of what the women heard at the tomb — that “Death, solitude and fear are not the last word.” The word that overpowers these words is “a word that only God can speak: it is the word of the resurrection.”
