"Khi đến nơi, nó thấy nhà được quét tước, dọn dẹp hẳn hoi. Nó liền đi kéo thêm bảy thần khác dữ hơn nó, và chúng vào ở đó. Rốt cuộc tình trạng của người ấy lại còn tệ hơn trước." (Lc 11,25-26)
Jesus Living Within Us
When we gather around the Eucharistic table and eat from the same bread and drink from the same cup, saying, "This is the Body and Blood of Christ," we become the living Christ, here and now.
Our faith in Jesus is not our belief that Jesus, the Son of God, lived long ago, performed great miracles, presented wise teachings, died for us on the cross, and rose from the grave. It first of all means that we fully accept the truth that Jesus lives within us and fulfills his divine ministry in and through us. This spiritual knowledge of the Christ living in us is what allows us to affirm fully the mystery of the incarnation, death, and resurrection as historic events. It is the Christ in us who reveals to us the Christ in history.
