Church Support August 4 - 5

Fr. Kevin’s Reflection The Fathers of the Church took up this spiritual development. They saw the Eucharist as essentially prayer made

perfect (oratio) … sacrifice in the Word … and in this way they also showed how Christian worship stood in relation to the spiritual struggle of past practices (to its quest for man’s true path and for his encounter with God). The Fathers call the Eu-charist simply “prayer”; or, the sacrifice of the Word, but in so doing, they go beyond the Greek idea of the sacrifice and pro-vide an answer to the question left open by Old Testament theology (which made prayer the equivalent of sacrifice). A strik-ing conflict is evident in the great Old Testament movement toward worship in the “Word”.

On one hand: the way is open to a new … positive form … of divine worship. Then, the other: there is still an insuf-ficiency. The Word alone is not enough. There is an anticipation of a restoration of the Temple in purified form. (This ex-plains the apparent contradictions that we find in Psalm 51(50). On the one hand, there is a magnificent unfolding of the new idea of worship: “For you take no delight in sacrifice. … The sacrifice acceptable to God is a broken spirit”. On the other, the whole psalm ends with a stirring vision of a fulfillment to come: [Then will you delight in right sacrifices, in burnt offer-ings and whole burnt offerings; then bulls will be offered on your altar.] For its part, the Greeks mysticism, however grand and beautiful, allows the body to fall into ash. The hope for spiritual ascent and universal reunion conforms to the magical (Harry Potter type) pattern. Something is missing.

The idea of the sacrifice of the Word (Logos) becomes a full reality only in the Word Who is made Flesh (Logos in-carnates), and draws “all flesh” into the glorification of God. When that happens, the Logos is more than just the “Meaning” behind and above things. Now He Himself has entered into flesh, has become bodily. He takes up into Himself our suffer-ings and hopes … all the yearning of creation … and brings it to God. The two themes that Psalm 51 (50) could not reconcile (the two themes that throughout the Old Testament keep running toward one another) now really come together (and make sense). The Word is no longer just the representation of something else, of what is bodily. In Jesus’ self-surrender on the Cross, the Word is united with the entire reality of human life and suffering. There is no longer a replacement cult. Now the explicit sacrifice of Jesus takes us up and leads us into that likeness with God … that transformation into love … which is the only true adoration. In virtue of Jesus’ Cross and Resurrection - the Eucharist is the meeting point of all the lines that lead from the Old Covenant (and, if you think about it, even from all of man’s expressed religious history). Here at last is right worship (perfect worship), ever longed for and somehow even goes beyond our powers: adoration “in spirit and truth”.

As was said last week, the torn curtain of the Temple is the curtain torn between the world and the presence of God. In the pierced Heart of the crucified Jesus, God’s own Heart is opened up - here we see Who God is and what He is like. Heaven is no longer locked up. God has stepped out of His ‘hiddenness’. This is why St. John sums up both the meaning of the Cross and the nature of the new worship of God in the mysterious promise made through the prophet Zechariah (cf. Jn 12:10). “They shall look on him whom they have pierced” (Jn 19:37). John will have us read this text again (with a new significance) in Revelation 1:7.

Word of Life “[W]e know what true, authen#c love looks like. It looks

like the man on the Cross. This deep, pure love that mo#-

vated Jesus to offer his life for ours, is the love that will

answer the longing in our hearts, if we let it.”
