10/24 - Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.
Dear Friends,
This week we are going to discuss Jesus' final saying from the cross - Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit, and the death of the Lord Jesus Christ.
In 1 Peter had said: For unto this are you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow his steps. Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth. Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not: but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly. Who his own self bore our sins in his body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice: by whose stripes you were healed. For you were as sheep going astray; but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
你們原是為此而蒙召的，因為基督也為你們受了苦，給你們留下了榜樣，叫你們追隨他的足跡。"他沒有犯過罪，他口中也從未出過謊言;" 他受辱罵，卻不還罵；他受虐待，卻不報復，只將自己交給那照正義行審判的天主； 他在自己的身上，親自承擔了我們的罪過，上了木架，為叫我們死於罪惡，而活於正義; "你們是因他的創傷而獲得了痊愈." 你們從前有如迷途的亡羊，如今卻被領回，歸依你們的靈牧和監督。(伯多祿前書 Chapter 2:21~25)
Why his death is so different? What is the meaning to us? Let's have a discussion and sharing in this week:
Please suggest your preferred bible book for our coming study after Luke Gospel.

2008-10-10: Jesus of Nazareth -- by Pope Benedict XVI
Dear Friends,
This week, Fr. Marvin is coming to our study and will give us a talk about the book "Jesus of Nazareth" written by Pope Benedict XVI.
Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Nazareth-Pope-Benedict-XVI/dp/0385523416
Some quotes from web sites about Pope's book:
This week, Fr. Marvin is coming to our study and will give us a talk about the book "Jesus of Nazareth" written by Pope Benedict XVI.
Some quotes from web sites about Pope's book:
- "This book is . . . my personal search 'for the face of the Lord.'" -- Benedict XVI
- From Jesus of Nazareth: ". . . the great question that will be with us throughout this entire book: But what has Jesus really brought, then, if he has not brought world peace, universal prosperity, and a better world? What has he brought? The answer is very simple: God. He has brought God! He has brought the God who once gradually unveiled his countenance first to Abraham, then to Moses and the prophets, and then in the wisdom literature–the God who showed his face only in Israel, even though he was also honored among the pagans in various shadowy guises. It is this God, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, the true God, whom he has brought to the peoples of the earth. He has brought God, and now we know his face, now we can call upon him. Now we know the path that we human beings have to take in this world. Jesus has brought God and with God the truth about where we are going and where we come from: faith, hope, and love...."
