Not a Miracle, but a Conquest!
Jesus' resurrection is more than a miracle, it is more than an apparition to his disciples, it is the powerful conquest over the powers of sin and death. Death no longer has power over those who believe.
I don't think we have been believing in the resurrection.....even though we say,
"I Believe in the Holy Spirit who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophetsg. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the deadI believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. and the life of the world to come. Amen."
I am beginning a season-long reflection upon the powers of death that reign in the world ans eh life and liberation that is now unleashed in Christ risen in triumph over death. You believe in the witness about Jesus' resurrections? Really? Maybe we don't recognize death and its powers. Likewise, the power and freedom off life in Christi might eluding us us as well.
Under which "power" are you engaged?
