[ad_1]

The government is still ready to support the Reformed Church in Hungary, when, after their national renewal, they will give new impetus to sowing, sowing and reaping.

– Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said at a Thanksgiving service on Saturday, Reformation Remembrance Day, for the rebuilding of the Reformed Church in Csömör. Added:

We also offer an alliance with the Reformed in cases where they will cultivate the fallow that has not yet been broken.

The Prime Minister also spoke about the fact that Hungary is still a church-building nation, so

we can be very proud in these times of temple destruction.

He explained that the church and the government are working together to renovate churches and build new ones. During the 15 years of his rule they supported the renovation and construction of some three thousand churches, of which 1,124 were Reformed churches and 47 new ones were built. Viktor Orbán believed that the government’s job was to protect built heritage and support churches ready for action.

According to the Prime Minister, the strength of the Reformed people in Csömör is well illustrated by the fact that over the course of a few years a parish and congregation house were erected, and then a church and a monument were built expressing the belonging of the Hungarians. The sower’s house called the church’s name a colloquial name because the director’s message is that the finishing touches to the building are not the end of the job, but the beginning of a journey.

Viktor Orbán explained that the parable of the sower expresses that the church opens its churches, schools, institutions of love not only to believers, but also to those who have not yet received the blessing of the Christian faith.

Viktor Orbán also cited the approval of the Basic Law, according to which Christianity is a nationalist force.

Hungarians believe that Christianity can sustain the whole of Europe and even the whole world. What we know today as European culture is the result of a two thousand year sowing

– he emphasized, emphasizing that the Hungarian Christian state also arose from this seeding in the Carpathian basin a thousand years ago. And during the century and a half of Muslim occupation, “the word rejected by the preachers was preserved, it saved the soul that kept Hungary in Hungary,” he added.

According to him, the fruit of the seeds sown by the apostles, missionaries and reformers can be seen there today in architecture, language, literature, the legal system, innumerable works of art and above all in the lives of many, many families. .

At the same time, we can also see from time to time that weeds are sown, and we also have to deal with the fact that in the sowing also appears an army of noisy birds of fashionable ideologies, trying to snatch the teaching from the heart of people if you haven’t gone deep enough.

Said the prime minister.

Therefore, being a Hungarian Christian is a love and a struggle at the same time. Today, it is also the creed of the Christian Democrats, the politics of the 21st century.

He declared. The Prime Minister added that Reformation Day reminds us that there is no unseeded harvest, and it also reminds us of how much Hungarians received from Christianity. Finally, the Prime Minister emphasized:

We consider that these many good things are not beautiful and esteemed pieces of the past, but constitute the pillars of the Hungarian future.

Bence Tuzson, a Fidesz member of parliament for the region, thanked everyone who contributed to the construction of the church. In Csömör there have been many developments, but the church is different because it is the house of God, the home of the soul and the creative power of the community, he added. He also called the new reformed church in Csömör a symbol of union, since the Carpathian basin, the Hungarians, is made up of the mosaics of the coffered ceiling.
