A paper only has meaning
By those that ink it to existence,
All is non-existent
Unless a great philosopher
Comes to call it to life,
It only becomes a fact when all
The earth agrees upon its theories,
And yet tomorrow it may no longer be
Yet the breathe that gives me life,
Which in actual FACT
Needs no introduction,
None avails such a privilege
It lies in empty tins that only utters a loud gong
It’s covered like an old book that has
Been clothed in filthy dust
The same breathe that all plantation
Duplicates its great qualities,
Yet the 'great' scientist would rather give
The monkey credibility... yes
Humanity stands in total awesomeness,
In awe of all intelligence the man has come to know,
Yet all that has come to effect
Has been a fraction of what you were
Made to be
How then does anything take meaning?
How then should I confirm to those
That dominate my intellect
How then should I take in total excitement?
With all insinuations of evolution
Yet the Owner of this globe
The Builder of this universe
The Creator of all scientists
Calls out in a still voice and says
I AM....
What more can take meaning?
What else can steal my heart?
Law of attraction, attracts me not
Nothing holds meaning
Nor makes sense anymore
For if it ever does
Then it can never be MY God,
Because MY God split the red sea
With no need for a climate change
So why should it make sense
If it did, then it wouldn't be MY God
The same God that walked on water...
I would like to start by asking you two questions. One: Can you can give an accurate definition of the phrase: "Lamb of God"? We all know that this is one of the names used for Jesus, like Messiah, Savior, Son of Man, or Christ. But exactly what is the importance of the name "Lamb of God"? And why is it important to me as a Catholic?
ReplyDeleteThe second question I would like to ask you is: Why the Catholic Church would offer The Holy Eucharist every day at every Mass throughout the world in over 3000 languages. What knowledge do they have that would make them feel compelled to do this for thousands of years? In answering this question, we'll see why the Catechism of the Catholic Church states that "The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life.'" (CC 1324)
Hebrews 13:11
ReplyDeleteIn the old testament in order to cover ones sin there had to be a shedding of blood, which in this case a lamb was sacrificed. Jesus is called the perfect Lamb of God because He shed His blood on the cross to REMOVE our sins.
In answering your second question in Luke 22:7-20 the Lord Jesus Christ says "This is my body given for you; do this in REMEMBRANCE of me." and "This cup is the NEW COVENANT in my blood, which is poured out for you.
Ultimately the most important part of our walk with Jesus Christ, is to acknowledge that He alone is Lord and He did indeed die on the cross for our sins. The pharisees were very religious and yet they missed the Messiah himself. Hope this answers your question. God Bless
