[Grem] *****SPAM(5.3)***** Re: A mai vasárnapi szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

 *Friends, the statement of Jesus that we have in the Gospel for today is
frightening: **“I have come to cast a fire upon the earth; how I wish it
were already kindled.*





*" He’s throwing fire down, much like the God who destroyed Sodom and
Gomorrah.Okay, so how do we make sense of all this? I thought the angels on
Christmas morning said that he had come as the Prince of Peace? Jesus is
the Incarnation of the God who is nothing but love, but this enfleshment
takes place in the midst of a fallen, sinful world. Therefore, it will
appear as something threatening, strange, off-putting. The world, on the
biblical reading, is a dysfunctional family. When Jesus comes, he
necessarily comes as a breaker of the peace, as a threat to the
dysfunctional family. Now we can begin to understand that strange language
about setting three against two and two against three. This is why Jesus
wants to cast a consuming fire on the earth. He wants to burn away all that
is opposed to God’s desire for us. *He has to clear the ground before
something new can be built. *Is this utterly painful? Yes!*














* Krisztus lelke, szentelj meg engem! Krisztus teste, üdvözíts engem!
Krisztus vére, ihless meg engem! Krisztus oldalából kifolyó víz, moss
tisztára engem! Krisztus kínszenvedése, erősíts meg engem! Ó, jóságos
Jézus, hallgass meg engem! Szent sebeidbe rejts el engem! Ne engedd, hogy
elszakadjak tőled! A gonosz ellenségtől oltalmazz engem! Halálom óráján
hívj magadhoz engem! Add, hogy eljussak hozzád, és szentjeiddel dicsérjelek
téged, mindörökkön-örökké. Ámen. *
