Why the Announcement, without knots in the throat
(Lk 10:13-16)
Difference between religiosity and Faith is in the Subject, of Life in the Spirit: it’s not we who dispose, set up, new heavens and earth - but the Grace that silently tills and precedes.
That’s why in the Announcement we are not orphans, with so many knots in the throat.
Master himself is not alone. The testimony of even the non disciples is part of the Way of Christ to the Father.
Road that Comes. It is not the established "internal" commitment that builds a more authentic world, with divine traits.
It’s rather the Kingdom - effusive in itself - that gives rise to the path towards the "distant", and activates unthinkable scenarios.
They come to us as a proposal for Peace: openness to a wider Plan, and interhuman justice.
The varied experience, the environment full of surprises of the non followers, generates blooms, of each one - in the discovery of the limit, of their own profound states - for communion.
No elective reserve; no right of pre-emption. Salvation according to the Father, not "in our own way".
Gospel overcomes the peoples barriers and if necessary leaves behind its cradle of mitigating cultures, closed in a cast-in mentality, perhaps intolerant; annoyed with everything.
Whoever in full warning and deliberate consent rejects the Word because the world will no longer be "like before", suddenly finds himself hopeless, without sons, with no possibility of life and expansion.
Without Presence, without the Spirituality of the Covenant - which concatenates every witness to the Son and the Father. And only God can overcome the force of obstacles; internal and external powers.
Only in the torch of divine condition [authentic Source, measure that Christ lives and amazes us] do we learn the meaning of our being, communicate, go.
The inaccessible interrogates, and becomes very close. It annihilates the exclusive ballasts, which remain in vain.
Thus the Proclamation unleashes the Spirit, it opens up unusual doors wide: even a window on the inner world.
Where opposites already have a right to exist. In addition, they call for New Covenant, which teaches to be with sides that do not like.
As such we will investigate and discover: the struggle of blockages, of fears of what we do not want to see outside and inside ourselves, must cease.
The tendencies that we thought should be denied become unpredictable source of other lights and virtues, intimate and in relationships.
Also and above all, the shadows call the Exodus, a new Alliance - where we are absolutely not alone and unilateral, but more complete.
In short, the Mystery that dwells in us goes beyond the snares of convictions, it makes us less divided. Starting from the source of being.
It becomes real, compelling transcendence-immanence; for all. New Life’ Awareness.
«He who listens to you listens to me and he who despises you despises me but he who despises me despises the One who sent me» (v.16).
«The Father in fact does not judge anyone but has given every judgment to the Son so that everyone honors the Son as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honour the Son does not honour the Father who sent him» (Jn 5:22-23).
