VATICAN CITY -- Christians are called to help those who have nothing to give and love those who don't love back, Pope Francis said.
Salvation and changing the world for the better require "doing good to those who aren't able to repay us, just like the Father did with us, giving us Jesus," the pope said at his weekly general audience in St. Peter's Square Sept 10.
"How much have we paid for our redemption? Nothing! It was all free!" he said. "So do good without expecting something in return. Just as the father did with us, we have to do the same. Do good and keep going!
