[Grem] Gospel meditation

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends, in today’s Gospel,
*Jesus prays, “Holy Father, keep them in your name that you have given me,
so that they may be one just as we are one.”*

*The Church is one because its founder is one. Jesus compels a choice
precisely because he claims to speak and act in the very person of God. *Jesus
simply cannot be one teacher among many, and therefore those who walk in
his way must be exclusively with him.

*Moreover, the God whom Jesus incarnates is one. The Israelite conception
of God is fiercely monotheistic and hence it excludes* *any diversity or
syncretism *at the level of basic belief:
* “The Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.” Joseph Ratzinger
commented that the opening line of the Nicene Creed, Credo in unum Deum (I
believe in one God), is a subversive statement because it automatically
rules out any rival claimant to ultimate concern. *

*To say that one accepts only the God of Israel and Jesus Christ is to say
that one rejects as ultimate any human being, any culture, any political
party, any artistic form, or any set of ideas. A Christian is someone who,
at the most fundamental level of his or her being, is centered on the one
God of Jesus Christ.*


*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.*
