[Grem] Húsvt 2. hét keddje szentmiséje igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends, in today’s Gospel, *Jesus declares that he must be lifted up to
bring eternal life to believers.*

*Why would God’s salvation of the human race have to include* *something as
horrifying as crucifixion?* *We live *i*n a time when the human predicament
is regularly denied, explained away, or ignored*. Despite the massive
counter-evidence from the moral disasters of the last century,* we *a
*re still beguiled by the myth of progress: with just enough technical
advancement, psychological insight, and personal liberation, we will solve
our problems.*
*But with this sort of stupidity and superficiality the Bible has no truck.
The scriptural authors understand* *sin* not so much as a series of acts
but *as a condition in which we are stuck, something akin to an addiction
or a contagious disease*.* No amount of merely human effort could possibly
solve the problem.*

*With this biblical realism in mind, we can begin to comprehend why the
Crucifixion of the Son of God was necessary*. *The just rapport between God
and human beings could not be reestablished either through our moral effort
or with simply a word of forgiveness*.* Something had to be done—and God
alone could do it.*
*Dicsőség az Atyának, a Fiúnak és a Szentléleknek most és mindörökké. Ámen.
*
