Christ Must Be Our Foundation (a.k.a. We Will Lose Everything)
Manage episode 451178287 series 2562826
As we reach the end of the liturgical year, our Scripture readings are taken from the apocalyptic sections of the Bible. The sections dealing with the "Apocalypse" have to do with the "unveiling" of reality to show the truth behind the surface. It would be a mistake for us to think that these passages are describing something in the future and thus irrelevant for us. In today's Gospel, after predicting the failure and collapse of the sun and moon and stars, Jesus says, "This generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place." All of the orientation points of our own life, everything upon which will have relied in this life, save God, is going away. We will lose everything! But, "when you see these things happening, know that he, the Lord, is near, at the gates."
