Reality is reliable. We can depend on the reality of his love for us. His love for us is the rock on which the wise build their lives. Whom shall we fear? Of whom shall we be afraid? Will our almighty lover ever let us down? Will he ever disappoint?

To neutralize the the serpent’s anti-God propaganda, Jesus commandeered a cross - the instrument of our woe - and repurposed it to offer us a contradiction.

The Gardens of the New Eden

Armageddon is here and now. We are not fighting for something in the hereafter. The battle is now. Now is the time to join Jesus in the scrum at the line of scrimmage in the Valley of Tears facing off against Evil toe to toe, cheek to jowl. Christianity is not a sport for spectators. Christians partake in the fray.

Building the Road from the Crucifixion to the Resurrection

Building the Road from the Crucifixion to the Resurrection

Jesus and the children of Adam and Eve cooperated to build the road from the Crucifixion to the Resurrection. Our contribution was torture, suffering, killing and death. His contribution was forgiveness.

The Dud

The evil that we did to him lit the fuse to the atomic bomb of retribution, retaliation and revenge . However, it did not detonate . Why? Love. Love turned the bomb into a dud.

The brutality of the Crucifixion makes the intransigence of his love for us extraordinarily amazing. Wow!

Irreparable Damage is Done to Our Understanding of God When we Divorce the Mass from its Foundation

The intransigence of God’s love for us despite the brutality of the Crucifixion is the good news of great joy. However, it does not propagate itself. God gave us the Mass to serve as the vehicle that propagates the good news of great joy from then and there across space and time to us here and now. Propagation of the good news of great joy is the purpose of the Mass. God did not invent the Mass to propagate his real presence. The real presence is not the good news of great joy. His real presence is incidental to the good news of great joy - necessary but not sufficient. God established the institution of the Mass to remind us through his bloody wounds that our God is the God who forgave us for the evil that we did to him. Wow! What a God is our God!

The Equation of Amazement

The dial that controls his love for us is in his hands not ours. Moreover, it is set to the highest degree and is locked in place. Not even the evil that we did to him could budge it.
