MR 4.15 The Significance of the Resurrection

The word gospel means “good news.” The Good News is God becoming man, dying for the sins of all, and rising from the dead to give forgiveness of sins and everlasting life. "The ultimate Good News is not Christ’s exalted moral teachings or even the perfect New Law of Love." The Good News is Christ being alive. 

Resurrection Theories

This is a contrast between St. Paul's and Rudolph Bultmann's theories of the significance of the Resurrection. St. Paul says that if the Resurrection did not happen, that our faith would be in vain. Rudolph says that if the bones of Christ were to be found, that the essentials of Christianity would stay the same. This is because the Church is well to established. However, any Catholic or Christian could say that St. Paul's account is more credible.

Transfiguration Reflection

Seeing Jesus transfigure on Mt. tabor would be extremely and delightfully amazing. there would be no words that could come out of my mouth that could describe it. The appearnces of Moses and Elijah and even the Holy Trinity makes it even more divine. Im guessing that both the Apostles and I would be extremely shocked and maybe even a little scared. This is a huge miracle, because it complemented the baptism and represented the perfect, divine life of heaven. Again, for me it would be somthing that I do not deserve. It just so great and magnificent that I wouldnt know what to do.

MR 4.C The Transfiguration analysis

Jesus' transfiguration was when he truly showed himself as both Man and God. It is the second time that the Trinity is shown in the Bible. This is important because it clearly shows God's presence in the world. Christ's transfiguration strengthened the faith of His disciples. God was present in His voice, the Son in His humanity, and the Holy Spirit in the clouds. This was one of the most important miracles. 

Idea Sketch: Baptism and Wedding at Cana

John The Baptist identifies Jesus as The Lamb of God

I learned that when Jesus went to get baptized, John the Baptist didn't really know anything about him. When he saw Jesus walking towards him, he told the people to behold, The Lamb of God. John gave Jesus this title without any knowledge of him. That's whats very interesting!
