A Light Unto My Path ~ Fifth Sunday of Easter ~ By Bishop Robert Barron In the midst of his so-called High-Priestly discourse in the Gospel of John, Jesus says to Thomas, “I am the way and the truth and the life.” There is a whole series of “I am” statements in the fourth Gospel, each one saying something about Jesus’ distinctive3 identity: “I am the bread of life; I am the light of the world; I am the Good Shepherd; I am the Resurrection and the Life,” etc. Each of these, obviously, reflects the majestic utterance in the third chapter of Exodus by which the God of Israel identifies himself: “I am who I am.” Thomas Aquinas parses the “I am” remark to Thomas the Apostle as follows. In saying that he is the way, Jesus is signaling his full humanity. For the human nature of the Lord is indeed the means by which a disciple is led to union with God. Christ’s humanity is, as Saint Paul puts it, “the icon of the invisible God.” But by insisting, at the same time, that he is the truth and the life, Jesus indicates his full divinity. Many other religious teachers and founders could have characterized themselves as “ways” to enlightenment or mystical union. But none of them could have coherently maintained that he, in person, is himself the object of enlightenment or the goal of mystical union. Jesus is in person the divine Truth that our minds long for; He is, in person, the divine Life in which our hearts long to share. In a word, precisely because the Lord is both God and man, both path and goal, He is the one in whom we find salvation.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers—Volume I Clement of Rome Mathetes

    The Ante-Nicene Fathers (10 Volumes) ranges from the Apostolic Fathers to various third and fourth century sources including the liturgies and ancient Syriac documents. It was intended to comprise translations into English of all the extant works of the Fathers (with the exception of the more bulky works of Origen) down to the date of the first General Council held at Nicaea in 325 A.D. The basic aim of the translations has been to strive for literary exactness, placing the English reader as nearly as possible on an equal footing with those who are able to read the original. General Editor : Phillip Schaff (1819-1893), who was born in Switzerland, was educated at Tubingen, Halle, and Berlin, and later took a position as Professor of Church history at German Reformed Seminary in Mercersburg, Penn., and Union Theological Seminary in New York. He was involved in the formation of the Evangelical Alliance, the revision of the English Bible (the Revised Version), and the Alliance of the Reformed Churches. Schaff was founder of the American Society of Church History and was the author of The History of the Christian Church (8 volumes).

On the translation of bishops and of episcopal seats. To the brethren, most dearly beloved, constituted to be bishops in the provinces of Bœtica and Toletana, Bishop Anterus sends greeting in the Lord. I should wish, my dearest brethren, always to receive the glad account of your sincere love and peace, so that the signs of your welfare might be promoted in turn by the dissemination of our letters among you, if our ancient enemy should give us quiet and deliverance from his attacks; who was a liar from the beginning,2799 the enemy of the truth, the rival of man—in order to deceive whom he first deceived himself,—the adversary of modesty, the master of luxury. He feeds on cruelties; he is punished by abstinence; he hates fasts, and his ministers preach, to that effect, as he declares them to be superfluous, having no hope of the future, and echoing that sentence of the apostle, in which he says, “Let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we shall die.”2800 O miserable boldness! O subtlety of a desperate mind! For he exhorts to hatred, and puts concord to flight. And because the mind of man is easily drawn over to the worse part, and chooses rather to walk by the broad way than laboriously to take its course by the narrow way, for this reason, brethren most dearly beloved, follow ye the better, and always leave the worse behind you.

Jesus turned and saw them following him and said to them, “What are you looking for?” John 1: 35-38 Visit US :) Blessings in Jesus, Fr. David R. Wagner, Pastor Fr. Rafal A. Duda, Parochial Vicar MGE FM FR . AD Behold the Lamb of God This Sunday’s reading from the Gospel of John includes five different names or titles for Our Lord, besides Jesus. First we have “Lamb of God”, “Rabbi”, “Teacher”, “Messiah”, and Christ. Names were very important in the Hebrew life and culture, as was genealogy. As you read the Old Testament, you’ll notice that whenever a man is named, it is almost always in the form of (his name), son of (his father’s name). Genealogy and ancestry were very important to the Israelites because they wanted to emphasize and stress the importance of connection to the Beginning. Before the Fall of Adam, humanity enjoyed an uninterrupted and unimpeded relationship with God the Father, and the ancient Jews wanted to preserve that memory. But why is Jesus named or referred to in the New Testament in so many different ways? The answer to that is because there are so many different aspects about Him and how He is the fulfillment of prophesy.
