SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - Palm Sunday
DESCRIPTION:THE WAY OF CHRIST \nIS STRAIGHT \nFrom a commentary by St Cyril of Alexandria \n◊◊◊ \n“Behold a righteous king will reign\, and princes will rule with justice.” \nThe only-begotten Word of God\, together with God the Father\, has always been \nking of the universe\, and to him all creatures\, visible and invisible\, are subject. \nPeople on earth\, having been caught in the snares of sin\, were persuaded by the \ndevil to reject his sovereignty and despise his royal power\, but the judge and \ndispenser of all justice brought them back under his own dominion. \nAll his ways are straight\, says Scripture\, and by the ways of Christ we \nmean the divine precepts laid down by the gospel. By observing them we make \nprogress in every virtue\, do honor to ourselves by the moral beauty of our lives\, \nand attain the heavenly reward to which we have been called. These are straight\, \nnot winding ways; they are direct and easily followed. As it is written: “The way \nof the upright is straight; the road of the just is made smooth.” Its many decrees \nmake the law a rugged way and its difficulty intolerable\, but the way of the \ngospel commands is smooth\, without any roughness or steep ascents. \nThe ways of Christ are straight\, then\, and as for the holy city. Which is the \nChurch\, he himself was its builder and he makes it his own dwelling. In other \nwords\, he makes the saints his dwelling\, sharing as we do in the Holy Spirit\, we \nhave Christ within us and have become temples of the living God. Christ is both \nthe founder of the Church and its foundation\, and upon this foundation we\, like \nprecious stones\, are built into a holy temple to become\, through the Spirit\, a \ndwelling place for God… \nWhen he founded the Church\, Christ delivered his people from bondage. \nHe saved us from the power of Satan and of sin\, freed us and subjected us to his \nown rule\, but not by paying a ransom or by bribes. As one of the disciples wrote: \n“we have been freed from the futile ways handed down to us by our ancestors\, \nnot by anything perishable like silver and gold\, but by the precious blood of \nChrist\, like that of a lamb without mark or blemish.” He gave his own blood for \nus\, so that we no longer belong to ourselves\, but to him who bought us and saved \nus. Those therefore who turn aside from the noble rule of the true faith are justly \naccused by all the saints of denying the Lord who redeemed them.
