Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 14:21-26.
Jesus said to his disciples: “Whoever has my commandments and observes them is the one who loves me. Whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and reveal myself to him.”
Judas, not the Iscariot, said to him, "Master, (then) what happened that you will reveal yourself to us and not to the world?"
Jesus answered and said to him, "Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him.
Whoever does not love me does not keep my words; yet the word you hear is not mine but that of the Father who sent me.
I have told you this while I am with you.
The Advocate, the holy Spirit that the Father will send in my name--he will teach you everything and remind you of all that (I) told you."
REFLECTION
"My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our habitation with him"
Christ remains in his Church: in its heavenly observances, service, addressing, and each one of its activities. Christ stays show among us incredibly in the step by step gift of the favored eucharist. That is the reason the Mass is at within and establishment of christian life. In each Mass the whole Christ is reliably there, Head and Body (Eph 1:22-23). "Through him, with him, in him." For Christ is the Way, the Mediator: in him we find our beginning and end; without him our lives are void...
Christ lives inside the Christian. Certainty uncovers to us that the person in a state of style is divinised. We are individuals, not wonderful orderlies, animals of delicate living animal and bone, with heart and feeling, pity and joy. Notwithstanding, divinisation is capable inside the whole individual as a retribution of our heavenly rebuilding. "Christ has been raised from the dead, the key results of the people who have fallen asleep. For since death got past a man, the recovery of the dead came moreover through a person. For comparably as in Adam all fail miserably, so too in Christ should all be excited" (1Cor 15:20-22).
Christ's life is our life as he ensured his observers at the Last Supper. "Whoever venerates me will keep my attestation, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling place him." Therefore Christians should live as Christ lived, making Christ's feelings their own specific so they likewise can yell with Saint Paul: "I live, no longer I however Christ lives in me" (Gal 2:20).
