「我們藉著這旨意得以成聖,這旨意是耶穌基督一次二永遠獻上祂的身體。 」
這句話是理解我們救恩所在的關鍵。
在耶穌和天父內,有同一旨意。這旨意在耶穌的十字架上完全彰顯。
在被釘在十字架上的耶穌身上,我們看到祂將自己無限地獻給天父。
耶穌藉著祂的死和復活,將所有人和所有受造物帶回天父面前。
祂成為我們成聖、奉獻給天父的道路。
我們需要在自己身上感受到耶穌持續不斷地獻給天父的恩典,並透過將我們的意志與祂無限的愛結合,參與這恩典。
“By that will we have been sanctified
through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.”
This sentence is a key to understanding where our salvation is.
In Jesus and in the Father, there is one will. This will becomes fully manifest in the cross of Jesus. In Jesus, hanging from the cross, we see the infinite gift of himself that He makes to the Father.
By his death and resurrection, Jesus brings back to the Father all people and all creatures.
He becomes the way on which we too are sanctified, consecrated to the Father.
We need to feel in ourselves the continuous offering that Jesus makes to the Father and participate in it by uniting our will to his infinite love.
