Friends of the Rosary:
Christ Jesus came to bring order to chaos. The powers of the world — dominated by darkness — sentenced the Author of Life and the Creator of All Things to death on the cross.
Today, twenty centuries later, they continue to reject Christ and His followers. In the Western Hemisphere, those secular powers engineer ideologies and false doctrines that, sadly, a vast number of people adopt.
The Son of God defeated death and sin with His resurrection. His victory is eternal and His words will never pass away.
In yesterday’s second reading (Mark 1:1-8), we heard the words written by Mark, who accompanied Peter in his travels until Rome.
His opening line “The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God” is a statement of who is truly the conqueror and messenger of the good news — evangelium or Gospel in Greek.
Christ is Lord. Neither the Roman Emperor at that time nor today’s leaders of the nations have power over the King of the Universe.
Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Our Lady of Loreto, Pray for Us!
To Jesus through Mary!
