 11/06/2026

Even though I am convinced that the reality within which we are living today does not reflect the purpose of the LOVE with which Our Father created this Universe and am aware that the Petrine Church has not yet won the struggle against "the things of this world", I also know that not only in the Scriptures themselves, but also in their Liturgical use by the Church we can find the WORD who leads us to  IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT, the source and goal of all creation. 

In today's Gospel we read that "In those days", as Jesus taught and formed his new priesthood that was to "go out and teach all Nations" and liturgically repeat the Eternal Sacrifice only he knew that he would make, he did not condemn outright the Law and the Temple religion of his day. 

He held nothing back in defense of TRUTH and today tells us unequivocally that even the mildest resentment of another's being is at the foot of the gradient that summits in murder. 

"Thou shalt not kill"

As I write this there are fellow humans pressing buttons to ensure the destruction of the lives and possessions of other humans whom they have never seen. Others are being beaten and abused by family members. I myself cannot deny that I have been overcome by blind rage more times than I can remember. Travellers are being beset by thieves and poisoners are doing their evil secretly. Opponents are being vilified and falsely accused.

There is absolutely nothing that comes from God in any of the above behaviours/events. Jews, Christians and Moslems have over the centuries always been able to justify their personal violence and the three Faiths developed from God's original revelations/commandments  are still involved in mass slaughter in the region that 2000 years ago was home to the Incarnation.

Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven; but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.

The message of  Jesus our Lord is totally radical because he is WORD, the root of all being and it is always TRUTH without embellishment or modification. God says 

"Turn the other cheek"

I wonder why we have always been able to talk our way around that absolute new commandment and have thus never lived in accordance with the Law of Moses or the completion and reset made in Palestine 2000 years ago even when he has created a new spiritual food, The Eucharist and Place of safety for our souls, The Church of Love, the New Holy Family.

"Woman behold your son, Son behold your mother".
