  No Such Thing as Irreversible Damage in Christ

   Victory is not so much conquering but reversal. With the temptations, we are never alone. With Christ, there is no such thing as irreversible damage.  

• Beautiful

  
  
  Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe
  
  In the bible, the king is majestic,  beautiful.
  
  How does beauty saves us,
  
  How is Christ the king, majestic on the cross?
  
  If Christ rules over our hearts, what beautiful thing happens inside us?
  
  Are we being carried away by a kingdom of false beauty  or carried along by the kingdom of true beauty?
  
  1 Pt:  It was not any cleverly invented myths that we were repeating when we brought you the knowledge of the power and the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; we had seen his majesty for ourselves. He was honoured and glorified by God the Father, when the Sublime Glory itself spoke to him and said, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved; he enjoys my favour.’ We heard this ourselves, spoken from heaven, when we were with him on the holy mountain.

   

• For Those in Bible Study

  A Brief Reflection

  For those involved in Bible Study - Part One

   

  Bible study is accessible to everyone, is encouraged and  is not difficult to read or understand in most cases.

  
  

  Bible study is like medicine , good for the soul.  However , every medicine comes with a caution on the label.

  Good to know what the caution is. 

  Keep in mind, the Bible is not the whole Christ.  Christ is the Word of God speaking to us through the Bible and the people of God(the Living Tradition, succession of the Apostles).  We must always be in touch with the whole Christ when we read the Bible. There are other areas of caution that may be good to know.

    If you read the bible on your own or in a bible group, maybe this little five minute message can help.

• A Healthy Dose of Determination

  
  
  21st Sunday Ordinary Time

  What can we learn from Christ from this particular gospel?

  1. Our determination is weak.  His is strong, so we need to share in His determination.
  2. We can't save others.  We keep trying to save others and get into trouble.  Sometimes we can take too much responsibility for others problems.  So, our Lord is teaching us that God saves; we can only help.

  That's part of what we can learn from this gospel.

• Grace Rather Than Politics

  Strengthening Trust
  
  Lk 18: 9-14
  Grace like water flows downhill to lowly places and the cry of the lowly pierces the clouds. Sometimes personal and national trials or tribulations put us in that lowly place where grace flows.
