Why has the name "Jesus Christ" caused more division, agitation and controversy than any other name in history?

Come on, why...?

If I bring up God in a coffee shop discussion, nobody is really offended. If I speak about Buddha or Brahman, Moses or Mohammed, I really don't irritate the listener. However, the name Jesus Christ seems to cut right to the soul. It did for me! When people brought up the other religious and philosophical leaders of history, I usually participated in some sort of intellectual discussion. When people tried to discuss Jesus with me, I felt that my space had been violated! What right did this person have to challenge me and my worldview? I've found that something makes Jesus more contentious and convicting than all the other religious leaders combined.

Really, what is it...?

Unlike any other widely followed religious leader in history, Jesus Christ made a unique claim. He declared himself God. Not a god, not god-like, but God incarnate -- the creator of the universe in human flesh. Intellectually, that's very disturbing. Spiritually, that's a direct attack on everything comfortable and coexisting in my safe little world. However, "is Jesus God"?

For me, I retreated to the typical responses to the life and claims of Jesus. Depending on the stage of my life, they sounded something like this:

"Jesus was a great man."

"Jesus was a nice moral model."

"Jesus was an esteemed teacher."

"Jesus was a religious prophet."

The issue with these three alternatives is not which is possible, for it is obvious that all three are possible. But rather, the question is 'which is more probable?' Who you decide Jesus Christ is must not be an idle intellectual exercise. You cannot put Him on the shelf as a great moral teacher. That is not a valid option. He is either a liar, a lunatic, or Lord and God. You must make a choice. 'But,' as the Apostle John wrote, 'these have been written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and' - more important - 'that believing you might have life in His name' (John 20:31). ¹

I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: 'I'm ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don't accept His claim to be God.' That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic - on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg - or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronising nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.

God chooses Abraham to build a nation. What Abraham is asked is not easy to do. He has to leave his friends and relatives, he has to leave the life he knows and go off to an unknown land. The way to this unknown land, they are not sure how life would turn out for them. There are many uncertainties but Abraham trusts God. He obeys the call of God.

Abraham laughs when God says he would have descendants who would be kings (Genesis17:16-17)"How can a hundred- year-old man have a child?"he asked."How can Sarah give birth at ninety?"But Abraham believes that, somehow, God would keep His promise.

Abraham is the true man of God: a man who trusts his Lord and hopes in His promises.

We have all sinned and deserve God’s judgment. God, the Father, sent His only Son to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him. Jesus, the creator and eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that He died for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, was buried, and rose from the dead according to the Bible. If you truly believe and trust this in your heart, receiving Jesus alone as your Savior, declaring, "Jesus is Lord," you will be saved from judgment and spend eternity with God in heaven.

God created the world according to His wisdom. He has willed that the human race share in the light of the divine intellect.

The following proverbs on wisdom explain :
1. Happy the man who finds wisdom and gains insight,For wisdom is of more value than silver and more useful than gold.
2. Listen to the teaching of your father. Do not ignore your mothers instruction. For they will be your graceful crown, a worthy chain around your neck.
3. Let wisdom abide in your heart. And knowledge will comfort your inner self. Foresight will guide you and understanding will protect you.
4. He who guard his mouth preserve his life; the constant talker is lost.

We should remember for the Lord gives wisdom and from His mouth comes knowledge and insight.
Have a good day to all.

Command them to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share with others. In this way they will store up for themselves a treasure which will be a solid foundation for the future. And then they will be able to win the life which is true life".


1 timothy 16:18-19

John, son of a shoemaker, was born in a small town in Belgium in 1599. As a boy, John had a very great devotion to Holy Mass and the Rosary.

When John was only nine years old, his mother became ill. Every day after school, he gave as many hours as he could to the care of his suffering mother.

For three years, he was a pupil of a parish pastor who prepared boys for the priesthood. Then he entered the newly opened Jesuit College of Mechlin in 1615. A year later, he joined their novitiate.

After three years, eager to continue his studies, he journeyed to room on foot to enroll at the Roman College. This difficult journey took him ten long weeks.

Did you that UNITARIANS believe in the unity of God, rather than in the doctrine of the Trinity as found in historic creeds of the Christian church. The term Unitarians also extends to religious groups dating from the 1500's to the present who rejected not only doctrine of the Trinity, but also creeds as the basis for authority in religion.

We listen to the readings from the Bible. the readings remind us of God's saving love and of His promise to send a Messiah. They also remind us of all the good things God has done for us. We respond by singing psalms about God.
The Apostles must have been sad and frightened after the death of Jesus. To forget their sadness and fear, they must have exchanged stories about things Jesus told them in the past. They must have sung psalms, too; to keep their spirits up.

Pope John XXIII wrote a very important encyclical entitled Peace on Earth. In this encyclical, Pope John summarized Jesus' teachings about God's Kingdom to help us know that human beings have rights. When these rights are being violated, the Kingdom of God is failing.
Below are the human rights taught in the encyclical.
These rights are gifts from our loving Father.

1. The right to life and a decent standard of living.
2. The right to respect and to a good reputation.
3. The right to search for and express truth.
4. The right to pursue art and culture.
5. The right to be informed truthfully about events.
6. The right to education and training.
7. The right to worship according to one's conscience.
8. The right to choose freely a state of life.
9. The right to work and work without force.
10. The right to good working conditions.
11. The right to just wages for one's work.
12. The right to private property.
13. The right to associate with other people.
14. The right to move about freely.
15. The right to take active part in public affairs.
16. The right to legal protection for one's rights.

These rights belong to all of us. We can start putting them into action in our homes, in our classroom and in our communities. We can begin doing them through the way we treat our family, classmates, neighbors and even people we don't know.

These are the Sundays when nothing else is scheduled. The season consists of two in-between periods. One is a short period between the Christmas season and the beginning of Lent. The other is the long period between the Eastern season and the first Sunday in Advent. The Sundays of the Year. During this season, the Holy Spirit helps us to remember that ordinary days are important, too.
