Subject: [TAC] Daily Excerpt for December 05 2006
Date: December 4, 2006 08:22 pm

Today's excerpt is from St. Cyril of Jerusalem:

"We do not preach only one coming of Christ, but a second as well, much
more glorious than the first. The first coming was marked by patience; the
second will bring the crown of a divine kingdom. In general, whatever
relates to our Lord Jesus Christ has two aspects. There is a birth from
God before the ages, and a birth from a virgin at the fullness of time.
There is a hidden coming, like that of rain on fleece, and a coming before
all eyes, still in the future. At the first coming He was wrapped in
swaddling clothes in a manger. At his second coming He will be clothed in
light as in a garment. In the first coming He endured the cross, despising
the shame; in the second coming He will be in glory, escorted by an army
of angels... That is why the faith we profess has been handed on to you in
these words: He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of
the Father, and He will come again in glory to judge the living and the
dead, and His kingdom will have no end. Our Lord Jesus Christ will
therefore come from heaven. He will come at the end of the world, in
glory, at the last day. For there will be an end to this world, and the
created world will be made new." (From a sermon [Office of Readings])

God Bless.

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, pray for us!

St. Gianna Beretta Molla, pray for us!
