In the first reading for this morning, God is addressing and summarising the "state of the Covenant" that he has made with his "Chosen People". He is doing this by inspiring the man Jeremiah to cooperate with the Word and thus become a Prophet, not by foretelling the future, but by revealing the Truth that is concealed within the events and quagmire of human awareness that formed the Jewish Nation before and during the Babylonian captivity.

In the Gospel, God is also speaking to the Jewish People, but now he, himself, is preparing his listeners to come to the understanding that with Jesus there is always "something greater here". The four Gospels are the record of how God prepared not only the Jews but the whole world to be ready to accept the complete reset of His relationship with mankind that he sealed with the real-time event that began on the first Good Friday and completed with the unseen Resurrection.

Each one of us is aware of our own limitations. We know that there are millions of people with far better human qualities than we have but our Creator only wants us to live by choosing to become the righteous in the being that is our soul, His unique "image and likeness" which he created and loved from the moment of our conception.

Jesus has made the final revelation that shows us the right path to follow to be sure of doing "thy will on Earth as it is in Heaven", even though we have to fight our way out of the entanglements of Providence. We all have had individual covenants presented to us by IAMFTHERSONHOLYSPIRIT and when we escape from the clutches of the "Father of Lies, this "Lying World" and our own "Mammon"  he speaks directly to us not only as he declares "Thou art Peter and on this Rock I will build my church" but also to each individual soul in his dying words from the cross when he invites us all into his New Holy Family, His Church of Love.

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

The Jews at the time of the Annunciation had lived in the Holy Land since the time of Moses, more than one thousand years previously. 

Jesus, who has never not existed, became man to enable us to choose to fulfill in the material time of this world the will of Our Creator, now revealed as IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT.

Our Father has always known each created soul as a human father knows all of his children and has created us with the intention that we should, each one of us, return his love for us all by using our own being to know, love and serve.

The human categories into which we place ourselves serve only to create false goals which we then falsely attribute to the providential will of God and in concentrating on them lose sight of our primary goal, i.e. to nurture our Souls.  St Paul warns us about this in his first letter to the Corinthians but subsequent generations have never listened, just as we have never truly listened to "My kingdom is not of this world".

Our God does not know us as anything other than the naked helpless baby born of our mothers. That baby that we all were had been ensouled at the moment of conception by our earthly fathers as image and likeness spiritually free to choose as we grew into maturity the Way, Truth, Life that he revealed by human words and deeds to his Disciples.

There are no nations in Heaven. There are no Capitalists. There are no Socialists. There are no Religions where God is All in All. Here on earth Christians have prayed "Thy will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven" but rarely practised it just as the Jews before us did not live up to the Conventual faith that God bestowed on them.

Jesus rose from the dead to confirm to each individual soul that it will live on after the death and corruption of our bodies. He has taught us and proved with certainty that we live in this world as a preparation for a  timeless state of being which we can  choose to be the single perfection of seeing God or the never ending pain of knowing that we have refused this joy.

In today's Gospel Jesus confirms that IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT has in no way modified "The Law" and that it is Jesus' mission to restate and enable us to complete it.  The Son of God and Son of Mary lived an extraordinary human life, extraordinary because it was perfectly human even to the extent of his acceptance of death, so that he could generate Sacramental being in this world, to be preserved and accessed by the Church he founded on St Peter.

Each day as the totally unjust war continues in Persia and I still try to open my being to WORD in the mass-readings. I become more and more aware that we have not truly grown in faith and are as much in need of a saviour as were the Jews in first century Palestine Although I still hear Jesus' words to Mary and John my heart calls out "Maranatha" for it is only he who can right all the wrongs that are being performed in this world, at this moment. The New Holy Family is our only true sanctuary.

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

Even in my worst moments of sinfulness, I have never considered abandoning my belief in IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT and always asked for the forgiveness that I have never earned but always receive as a free gift.  

I know that I and every person who has ever lived has been created with sufficient ability to be able to choose to respond positively to the revelations made by WORD throughout history. To do that I have to exit from all that my self-regard demands for itself and truly accept the will of Our Father who always responds whenever we seek support against temptation and protection against evil.

Old and New Testament  revealed religion is about how to live in the  material world being consciously subject to  the will of God. Sometimes in the Old Testament it seems that IAMIAM  accepts the actual burnt animal sacrifices that can only be a symbolic act, showing the donor's recognition that HEISGOD and the donor is subject to HIS power. Sometimes IAMIAM supports the Jews in their wars against their neighbours and positively encourages the elimination of the people who first occupied the Holy Land.

At the Annunciation, Jesus is the "begotten not made" Incarnation and the moment when IAMIAM expands the revelation of his spiritual Being and Love, into IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT. Jesus is a Jew and teaches directly to the Chosen People, but after the Resurrection we have had to come to terms with the "My kingdom is not of this world" not only openly declared at his trial but also revealed by his teaching throughout his public ministry.

Our God knows each one of us and tells us that he supports us in our individuality by his gifts of  both the Church of Peter and the Church of Spiritual Love, His New Holy Family, when we knowingly choose to follow all that he has completely revealed and sealed by the only sacrifice, acceptable to him in its worthiness, his own body and blood, crucified to save us from our sins, on Calvary.

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

Dear Lord, we are again proving to be undeserving of your care as we continue to slaughter each other in the Holy Land where you lived 2000 years ago. Forgive me for my own personal sins and teach us all how to do only your will on Earth as it is done in Heaven. Amen

Monday Week 3 of Lent

In today's Gospel we are presented  with Jesus' first formal discourse. This event had been preceded by the temptations that he had resisted during his fast in the wilderness,

In the Incarnation God has chosen to reset the relationship between HIS uncreated Eternal Freedom and and our created in time human freedom . IAMFATHERSONANDHOLYSPIRIT has no need to do this except to reveal to us that we are very special beings who live in a material creation which is limited by scientific laws that we can discover and utilize in "freedom" but in which we are "something greater" than the material which we know with our senses but which we can analyse with our sentient being, intelligence and soul.

We are "image and likeness" and so greatly cherished by "Our Father" that "Word became flesh and dwelt amongst us". Jesus is "True Man". Sinlessness places this man into a category above human understanding in which we can also find only his, Mother. the Immaculate Conception.

The congregation in the Synagogue knew the Man, Jesus, as the son of Joseph, the carpenter. They had heard rumours of miracles but they were nowhere ready for his public self-proclamation using the words  that announced  the Jubilee, the year of God's favour. Of course such blasphemy should be silenced and Conventual  Righteousness prevailed as they tried to throw him off their cliff. But "His time had not yet come", there was much more that he had to teach us, by word and deed, before his mission of Love in our natural world, was concluded  on Calvary.

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

Third Sunday of Lent

We all know that our bodies are a part of the material Universe which we know by our senses. We also know that just as with Jesus, "there is something greater here", within us. We cannot see, hear, touch or taste this greater something but our Creator teaches us through the WORD of scripture that our invisible being, our soul,  is "image and likeness" of his own. 

He has created for us a "freedom" that is limited in its power to control the material universe but completely capable of opening itself to the guidance of the Love with which he creates everything we can know and "sees that it is good." Every each one of us is fully known and recognised by Our Father to whom we are as spiritually connected as we were to our mothers, but although this spiritual cord is never cut we are completely free to accept or refuse the grace it never ceases to offer to us.

St Paul emphasises that the agony that Jesus freely accepted was to save the completely unworthy sinners that we are from the punishment that we justly deserve. God knows that I am silenced by the effort to respond to the immensity of what he reveals to us in the Scriptures and saddened by my sinful failures.

It was outside of Israel, at The Shrine of Pan that Jesus first expressed his intention to build a "Church" for the Whole World and in today's Gospel it is here in Samaria that he first directly claims to be the Messiah and confirms to the Samaritan woman, by revealing her life-story that IAMFTHERSONHOLYSPIRIT knows and cares for each of our individual souls.

In the real-time of today, the things of this world are still in turmoil although I am only aware of this via reports. I am also aware that such events have happened throughout history but in "these days", the time of the  living, we are aware that mankind has become capable of initiating the complete end of this world without divine intervention.

The Church which met in the Portico of Solomon was inspired by their resurrection-faith to be sure that they "would see the Lord in the land of the living". We are still certain that Jesus will return but have learnt to be patient without extinguishing Faith and Hope for we are sustained by our Church of Love, the New Holy Family founded in his dying words by Jesus the Messiah.

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

Time always passes. While we are alive we all of us know that we cannot "stop the clock". So it was for the Apostles and disciples of Our Lord. They were the "first fruits" Resurrection Generations. They were the generation who first endeavoured to live in this world as Jesus had himself lived.

He had owned nothing except the essential clothing that we all need to protect us from the elements. He did not have "a place to rest his head" but slept wherever he happened to be, even in the boat as he crossed the Sea of Galilee.

When he despatched his first Missionaries they were to take nothing with them but had to accept whatever was first offered by the people to whom they preached. There has been much speculation about the ownership of the "upper" room but we really have no certain knowledge about that other than the "randomness" reported only in John's Gospel.

Yesterday we read about how the fear of losing their expected inheritance prompted Joseph's brothers into their plot against him. Today the welcome given to the prodigal son provokes the resentful fury of his brother just as had God's seeming rejection of his offering had provoked Cain's murderous reaction.

The clearing of the money-changers from the Temple is often cited as an example of righteous anger and as a foundation for the Christian conception of a "Just War". All the ancient civilizations of mankind have also tried to justify war but we are not "ancient civilizations" we have been taught that the Incarnation is the total reset of God's relationship with mankind. We have been taught to turn the other cheek, to never fight back even against the most barbaric of invaders. As I type these words I know that my brothers and sisters are continuing to kill each other in Persia, and I can only pray for God to treat all the victims of each other's violence with mercy.

Those very first Christians, Apostles and Disciples who had known Jesus were totally convinced that he would return to their world just as he had done after Calvary. They pooled their resources and lived communally as recorded in the Acts. Their faith in the Parousia in their lifetime, however, did not survive the destruction of the Temple and they began again to amass the wealth of this world.

We now have two millennia of Christian history to look back on and we must face up to the fact that our world is still at odds with the will of Our Father. Was it only for the first few months in Solomon's Portico that there was a truly Holy Mother Church on this earth, an Institution that really did reject the things of this world and teach each of us to welcome the agony of a personal crucifixion?

Although there has always been corrupt prelates within the Church there have also always been examples of sincere holiness. There were many true martyrs during the first centuries and millions of silent saints. 

Jesus' "My kingdom is not of this world" tells us that the living faith  he will build on St Peter is not composed of the manmade edifices which grace all the cities that were once Christendom nor of the Imperial Bureaucracy-inspired "Roman Decretals" which have become doctrine and canon Law, but is  the Natural Love of IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT with which he founds, His Church of Love, the New Holy Family, our source of all that he promises can be ours, in the scriptures.

We have to take all that Jesus reveals about IAMFATHERHOLYSPIRIT into our beings and contemplate his words to the extent that they become his presence in our hearts. If we can do this we will become the true Resurrection Generation and thus able to welcome the  return he promised so long ago.

Forgive us our trespasses, Maranatha, Lord, Maranatha.

The story of Joseph and his brothers has been repeated in real-time throughout the ages in many different cultures. It is very easy to feel resentment against siblings who, although younger, are perceived to have obtained a greater share of parental affection. Jesus' parable of the Prodigal Son is another example the same story.

It is never easy for me to accept the literal truth that Our Father really did choose to reveal himself to only one nation, but in today's Parable of the Vineyard, Jesus confirms this to be true. I have thus often found myself in the same resentful frame of mind as were the older brothers of Joseph when thinking about the Old Testament.

Jesus in the great reset of salvation history that is the Incarnation, makes it clear that his message of universal love has to be broadcast to the whole world and that we are all able to access the forgiveness from all sins that his body crucified on calvary bleeds out throughout time and space.

There is nothing that we receive that is to become our personal possession. We have to display our faith and hope in the charity that we have for each other. No-one is to be excluded. The great and the good of this world are as loved by IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT as are the least and the lowly. 

Presidents, Emperors, Kings, Popes, Ayatollahs, Rabbis, the rich, the powerful, the poor, atheists, humanists, Christians, Jews, Moslems all seem to have different stakes in this life but at the moment of our death we will all know nothing except that it is only Jesus who has the words of eternal life.

Let us thank God that he has shown us the Way, the Truth and the Life and created the security of His New Holy Family, His Church of Love to be not only our home in this world, but also the atrium to the  Eternal Life of the next.

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