Pope Benedict XVI on Sunday asked Christians to proclaim God's love with "boldness, humility and coherence" like Jesus.
"Let us ask the Lord to give each of us a spirit of courage and wisdom, so that in our words and actions, we may proclaim the saving truth of God's love with boldness, humility and coherence," said Pope Benedict in his remarks after the Sunday Angelus prayer.
"Jesus did not come to seek the consent of men, but to give testimony to the truth," Pope Benedict told the thousands of pilgrims gathered at St. Peter's Square.
"The true prophet does not obey anyone other than God and places himself at the service of truth, ready to pay in person," he added from the window of the Apostolic Palace.
