[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi

Wednesday of the Sixth Week of Easter

John 16:12-15


*Friends, today’s Gospel declares that when the Spirit comes, he will guide
us into all truth. There is a story I’ve heard about Jean-Luc Marion that,
if it isn’t true, should be. In the midst of a lively lecture on Descartes,
a student asked a pointed question about God. Marion looked at her and
said, "Go to Sunday Mass for a year and then return and ask me that
question again." Marion’s response was not just a clever one-liner*. If *true
knowledge of God depends upon immersion in the Holy Spirit, *then that
knowledge is a function of *an entire form of life, involving prayer,
self-denial, the corporal and spiritual works of mercy, and the forgiveness
of one’s enemies. We don’t think our way to an un*derstanding of God so
much as we live our way to it.

*Thomas Aquinas always said that he owed his theology far more to the
persistence of his prayer than** to the acuity of his mind. His penetration
of the divine mystery flowed from his life in the Holy Spirit. And so today
we pray, "Come, Holy Spirit, come!"*
