[Grem] Nagyböjt 2. vasárnapja szentmiséje igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, today’s Gospel celebrates the Transfiguration.Christ came not
just to make us nice people or morally upright folks, but rather to give us
a share in his divine life, to make us denizens of heaven, people capable
of living in that new environment.What gave the first Christians this
conviction? The answer is the Resurrection—and the great anticipation of
the Resurrection, which is the Transfiguration. This ordinary Jesus somehow
became transformed, elevated, enhanced in his manner of being.*The first
thing we notice is that his appearance becomes more beautiful.

*These somewhat grubby bodies of ours are destined for a transfigured,
elevated beauty.*Secondly

*, in his transfigured state, Jesus transcends space and time, since he is
talking with Moses and Elijah. In this world, we are caught in one moment
of space and time, but in heaven, we will live in the eternal now of God’s
life.*

*Have you ever noticed that even as we appreciate all that is wonderful
about this life, we are never really at home? There is a permanent
restlessness about human life. But a higher, richer, more beautiful and
spiritually fulfilling life awaits us. *

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