[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi Remete Szt. Antal apát ünnepén

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus acknowledges that he is “lord even of
the sabbath.”And the claim of the first Christians was Iesous Kyrios—Jesus
is Lord. This was bound to annoy both Jews and Gentiles. The Jews would be
massively put off by the use of the term Kyrios in describing an ordinary
human being. Moreover, the implication that this man was the Messiah of
Israel—when he had died at the hands of Israel’s enemies—was simply
blasphemous.And for the Greeks, this claim was subversive, for a watchword
of the time was Kaiser Kyrios—the Emperor is Lord. A new system of
allegiance was being proposed, a new type of ordering and lordship—and this
was indeed a threat to the regnant system.*
*Christians should enter the public arena boldly and confidently, for we
are not announcing a private or personal spirituality but rather declaring
a new King under whose lordship everything must fall. If Jesus is truly
Lord, then government, business, family life, the arts, sexuality, and
entertainment all come properly under his headship.*

*Dicsőség az Atyának, a Fiúnak és a Szentléleknek most és mindörökké. Ámen.*
