SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - 4th Sunday of Lent
DESCRIPTION:THE CROSS OF OUR LORD \nFrom a commentary by St John Chrysostom1 \n◊◊◊ \nAlthough we praise our common Lord for all kinds of reasons\, we praise \nand glorify him above all for the cross. It fills us with awe to see him dying like \none accursed. It is this death for people like ourselves that Paul constantly \nregards as the sign of Christ’s love for us. He passes over everything else that \nChrist did for our advantage and consolation and dwells incessantly on the \ncross. The proof of God’s love for us\, he says\, is that Christ died for us while we \nwere still sinners. Then in the following sentence he gives us the highest ground \nfor hope: If\, when we were alienated from God\, we were reconciled to him by \nthe death of his Son\, how much more\, now that we are reconciled\, shall we be \nsaved by his life! It is this above all that made Paul so proud\, so happy\, so full \nof joy and exultation\, when he wrote to the Galatians: God forbid that I should \nglory in anything but the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. What wonder\, indeed\, \nif Paul rejoices and glories in the cross\, when the Lord himself spoke of his \npassion as his glory. Father\, he prayed\, the hour has come: glorify your Son. \nThe disciple who wrote those also told us that the Holy Spirit had not yet \ncome to them because Jesus was not yet glorified\, calling the cross glory. And \nwhen he wanted to show God’s love\, did he do so by referring to signs\, wonders\, \nor miracles of any sort? By no means: he pointed to the cross\, saying: God so \nloved the world that he gave his only Son\, that all who believe in him might \nnot perish but have eternal life. And Paul writes: Since he did not spare his own \nSon\, but gave him up for us all\, how can he fail to lavish every other gift upon \nus? And in his exhortation to humility he uses the same example\, saying: You \nshould have the same dispositions as you find in Christ Jesus. Although his \nnature was divine\, he did not cling to his equality with God\, but emptied \nhimself to assume the condition of a slave. Bearing the human likeness\, \nsharing the human lot\, he humbled himself and was obedient even to the point \nof dying – dying on a cross! \nReturning to the subject of love\, Paul again urges his hearers to love one \nanother\, even as Christ loved us\, and gave himself up for us as a fragrant \noffering and sacrifice to God. And Christ himself showed how the cross was his \nchief preoccupation\, and how much he longed to suffer. In his ignorance\, Peter\, \nfirst of the Twelve\, foundation of the Church\, leader of the Apostles\, protested: \nGod forbid\, Lord! This shall never happen to you! Listen to what Christ called \nhim: Get behind me\, Satan. You are an obstacle in my way\, proving by the \nstrength of his reprimand his great eagerness to suffer on the cross. \n  \n1 Journey with the Fathers -Year B – New City Press – NY – 1993 – pg 36.3 \n  \n
