"And Upon This Rock I Will Build My Church" - Jesus
The Son of God
In the Church, through the preaching, teaching, and sacraments, we are offered participation in Christ’s Passion, Death, and Resurrection, so we might be converted and live. In Baptism, we share in Christ’s death, so as to live with him forever. Through the grace and blessings of Christ Jesus, as experienced in the ministry of the Church, we are called out of death, into the marvelous light of our Lord and Savior Jesus.
As Jesus calls forth, “Lazarus, come out,” The evangelist offers that God’s love is stronger than life or death. We are rooted in God’s love which is foundational to everything else. We are made for God in his image and likeness. In the ministry of Jesus Christ, we come to realize that God does not desire sin, sickness, brokenness, or even death, to be part of the human condition.
We are asked to believe, to trust a promise made to us, that even though we die, we will come back to life in a love who is our resurrection. We celebrate this mystery of our faith every day at Mass, in the sacraments, and in the teaching, preaching, and sanctifying activity of the Church. Today Jesus continues to call us by name, commanding that we be unbound and set free. As God originally intended.
