IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT knows that the "stumbling-block" that is the question asked by the "other Judas" in this morning's Gospel can only be overcome by the complete faith that is our acceptance of every word that comes from the mouth of God.

I have never been able to answer "Why did IAMIAM love the Jews more than the Nations?" except with "Because he did". Similarly "Why did the Incarnation become manifest in Palestine at the point in  time that he did ? "Because he did". I too know that I am because I am and know that "iam" is known by IAMIAM.

The whole of creation in which God recognises his own "Good" has "Image and Likeness" as the highest form of created being. We have been created to act as God himself would do in the circumstances of our time on earth. On earth we have to choose to live out our lives in loving obedience but we have never made it on our own.

There is something great about the stupidity of mankind in that even in the knowledge that "this too will pass away" we never stop scurrying about fascinated by the physical universe and our own power to analyse and understand it.

The Incarnation is the greatest event that has ever happened in the material world. Mankind has seen the Resurrection, the everlasting state of physical being that will be the only reality after Jesus' promised return. Its time and place is important but not more so than its time and place in my being, my living faith that strives to know the living God in obedience and love.

Maranatha Lord, Come Lord, Jesus come.
