[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi Fisher Szt János püspök és Morus Szent Tamás vértanúk ünnepén

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, today’s Gospel gives us the Our Father. It asks that God’s will
be done “on earth as it is in heaven,” but biblical cosmology sees these
two realms as interpenetrating fields of force. Heaven, the arena of God
and the angels, touches upon and calls out to earth, the arena of humans,
animals, plants, and planets.Salvation, therefore, is a matter of the
meeting of heaven and earth, so that God might reign as thoroughly here
below as he does on high. Jesus’ great prayer, which is constantly on the
lips of Christians, is distinctively Jewish in inspiration: “Thy kingdom
come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”This is decidedly not
a prayer that we might escape from the earth, but rather that earth and
heaven might come together. The Lord’s Prayer raises to a new level what
the prophet Isaiah anticipated: “The earth shall be filled with knowledge
of the Lord, as water covers the sea.”The first Christians saw the
Resurrection of Jesus as the commencement of the process by which earth and
heaven were being reconciled. They appreciated the risen Christ as the one
who would bring the justice of heaven to this world.  *

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