161 | Christians/Catholics same? | Rom 3:28 | Emmaus | 162126 | ||
To say "Christians and Catholics are different" is assuming a fact not in evidence. | ||||||
162 | What does it mean to kill flesh daily? | Gal 5:24 | Emmaus | 162038 | ||
Kalos, I think this part of your answer: ... "Paul writes: "I have been crucified with Christ." "Have been crucified" -- past tense. Paul here is not teaching that we are in a continual process of BEING crucified. He says, "I have been crucified." Have been. Past tense. Not will be, might be, should be, am in the process of being -- I have already BEEN crucified."... misses the point of the question. Jesus made it clear that we must on a daily basis in our daily spiritual struggle put to death the things of the flesh when He said: "And He was saying to them all, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me." Luke 9:23 I think the question was more a pastoral question living our daily lives in Christ than a theological question about Christ's salvific work on the cross. Emmaus |

keddy "The term "flesh" refers to man in his state of weakness and mortality. The "resurrection of the flesh" (the literal formulation of the Apostles' Creed) means not only that the immortal soul will live on after death, but that even our "mortal body" will come to life again." http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/para/990.htm " 2055 Christ's faithful "have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires" (Gal 5:24); they are led by the Spirit and follow his desires." "2543 "But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from law, although the law and the prophets bear witness to it, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe."(Rom 3:21-22) Henceforth, Christ's faithful "have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires"; they are led by the Spirit and follow the desires of the Spirit.(Gal 5:24; cf. Rom 8:14,27)" http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p3s2c2a0.htm Emmaus |

sid, It would seem to be a safe assumption from your post that you are not from the "conservative Protestant" school of exposition. What exactly is your point of reference within the Christian spectrum? I think we can safely rule out Catholic and Eastern Orthodox, Anglican, Lutheran, Reformed and Methodist. Can we assume that you have had some formative training from some specific perspective, like just about everyone else? Emmaus |

http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/para/797.htm III. THE CHURCH IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT 797 "What the soul is to the human body, the Holy Spirit is to the Body of Christ, which is the Church."243 "To this Spirit of Christ, as an invisible principle, is to be ascribed the fact that all the parts of the body are joined one with the other and with their exalted head; for the whole Spirit of Christ is in the head, the whole Spirit is in the body, and the whole Spirit is in each of the members." The Holy Spirit makes the Church "the temple of the living God" (2 Cor 6:16; cf. 1 Cor 3:16-17; Eph 2:21) Indeed, it is to the Church herself that the "Gift of God" has been entrusted. . . . In it is in her that communion with Christ has been deposited, that is to say: the Holy Spirit, the pledge of incorruptibility, the strengthening of our faith and the ladder of our ascent to God. . . . For where the Church is, there also is God's Spirit; where God's Spirit is, there is the Church and every grace.24 (St. Irenaeus, Adv. haeres. 3,24,1:PG 7/1,966) http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p1s2c1p6.htm#362 II. "BODY AND SOUL BUT TRULY ONE" 362 The human person, created in the image of God, is a being at once corporeal and spiritual. The biblical account expresses this reality in symbolic language when it affirms that "then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being." Man, whole and entire, is therefore willed by God. 363 In Sacred Scripture the term "soul" often refers to human life or the entire human person. But "soul" also refers to the innermost aspect of man, that which is of greatest value in him, that by which he is most especially in God's image: "soul" signifies the spiritual principle in man. 364 The human body shares in the dignity of "the image of God": it is a human body precisely because it is animated by a spiritual soul, and it is the whole human person that is intended to become, in the body of Christ, a temple of the Spirit:232 Man, though made of body and soul, is a unity. Through his very bodily condition he sums up in himself the elements of the material world. Through him they are thus brought to their highest perfection and can raise their voice in praise freely given to the Creator. For this reason man may not despise his bodily life. Rather he is obliged to regard his body as good and to hold it in honor since God has created it and will raise it up on the last day. 233 365 The unity of soul and body is so profound that one has to consider the soul to be the "form" of the body:234 i.e., it is because of its spiritual soul that the body made of matter becomes a living, human body; spirit and matter, in man, are not two natures united, but rather their union forms a single nature. 366 The Church teaches that every spiritual soul is created immediately by God - it is not "produced" by the parents - and also that it is immortal: it does not perish when it separates from the body at death, and it will be reunited with the body at the final Resurrection.235 367 Sometimes the soul is distinguished from the spirit: St. Paul for instance prays that God may sanctify his people "wholly", with "spirit and soul and body" kept sound and blameless at the Lord's coming.236 The Church teaches that this distinction does not introduce a duality into the soul.237 "Spirit" signifies that from creation man is ordered to a supernatural end and that his soul can gratuitously be raised beyond all it deserves to communion with God.238 . 232 St. Thomas Aquinas, STh III,48,2. 233 Acts of the Trial of Joan of Arc. 234 Jn 3:29. 235 Mk 2:19. 236 Cf. Mt 22:1-14; 25:1-13; 1 Cor 6:15-17; 2 Cor 11:2. 237 Cf. Rev 22:17; Eph 1:4; 5:27. 238 Eph 5:25-26. |

178 | Biblical Exegesis of Matt. 14:13-21 | Matt 14:13 | Emmaus | 158033 | ||
Tyhe multiplication of the loaves appears in all the Gospels. It anticipates the Eucharist. This is made clear when you note that matthew used the same series of verbs in this passage, Matt 14:19, taking...blessed...broke...gave, as used in the Last Supper passage Matt 26:26 and Mark 14:22. THis miracle also recalls the similar miracle in 2 Kings 4:42-44, see also John 6:9. | ||||||

"III. THE GIFTS AND FRUITS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT "1830 The moral life of Christians is sustained by the gifts of the Holy Spirit. These are permanent dispositions which make man docile in following the promptings of the Holy Spirit. "1831 The seven gifts of the Holy Spirit are wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. They belong in their fullness to Christ, Son of David.(Isa 11:1-2) They complete and perfect the virtues of those who receive them. They make the faithful docile in readily obeying divine inspirations. "Let your good spirit lead me on a level path.(Ps 143:10) "For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God . . . If children, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ.(Rom 8:14,17) "1832 The fruits of the Spirit are perfections that the Holy Spirit forms in us as the first fruits of eternal glory. The tradition of the Church lists twelve of them: "charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control, chastity."(Gal 5:22-23 (Vulg.) http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p3s1c1a7.htm#III |
