[Grem] Gospel meditation

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends, in today’s Gospel, *Jesus directs his disciples to “ask the master
of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest,” to pray for
evangelists to rescue the lost. But what precisely does it mean to
evangelize?*

*Euangelion (glad tidings) was a familiar word in the culture of **the New
Testament **authors. **When the emperor or one of his generals won a
battle, he would send evangelists ahead to announce the glad tidings.*

*The first Christians were being edgy when they adapted the word to their
purposes*. *They were saying that the definitive battle had indeed been
won, but that it had nothing to do with Caesar and his armies.* *It had to
do with the victory that God had won in Christ over sin and death. *

*Jesus went into the belly of the beast*—*into the heart of our dysfunction*,
t*o the limits of godforsakenness*—*and he defeated* *the dark powers.* *He
demonstrated that the divine love is greater than our* *greatest enemies.*

*This evangelical message entails, too, that there is a new King, a new
Emperor. Christ, the victor over sin and death*,
* must be the center of your life. *


*Imádkozzál érettünk, Istennek szent Anyja!  Hogy méltók lehessünk Krisztus
ígéreteire!  Könyörögjünk! Kérünk téged, Úristen, öntsd lelkünkbe szent
kegyelmedet, hogy akik az angyali üzenet által szent Fiadnak, Jézus
Krisztusnak megtestesülését megismertük, az ő kínszenvedése és keresztje
által a föltámadás dicsőségébe vitessünk! Krisztus, a mi Urunk által. Ámen.*
