Tuesday, 25 March 2025   And suddenly they cried out, saying, “What have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?” Matthew 8:29   “And, you behold! They croaked, saying, ‘What – us and You – Jesus, Son of God. You came here to us before torment time?'” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus had arrived on the opposite shore of the Sea of Galilee. Upon arrival, it mentioned that He had met two men possessed by demons who were very fierce. This was so much the case that nobody could pass by their way. However, Jesus is now near them, and the demons recognize Him. This begins to be seen in Matthew's next words, which say, “And, you behold! They croaked.”   This is a new word, krazó. It is an onomatopoetic term for the raven's cry. There are various sounds a raven is noted for, such as a kraaa, a croak, short repeated shrills, knocking sounds, squeaking, and swooshing of their wings. The easiest way to describe them is a croak. As for what they croaked out, they were “saying, ‘What – us and You – Jesus, Son of God.'”   It is a Hebrew form of speaking that is found in the Old Testament, such as in David's words to some of his men –   “And says, the king, ‘What to me and to you, sons Zeruiah? If he will make light, and for Yehovah said to him, “Make light of David,” and who says, “Why done thus?”'” 1 Samuel 16:10 (CG).   The demons, therefore, are croaking out a desire to know why Jesus has come and what business He has with them. They seem surprised, but they also note that Jesus is the Son of God, thus acknowledging His deity and that He has every right to be wherever He wants at whatever time He desires.   So far in Matthew, Jesus has only been directly called the Son of God by the Traducer in Matthew 4:3 and 4:6. This is now the first time He is called this in front of others. However, chronologically, He was called this earlier, as recorded in John 1 by John the Baptist (John 1:34) and Nathanael (John 1:49).   In this same account, as recorded by Luke, Legion calls Him “Son of the Most High God” (Luke 8:28). As is clear, they understood Him to be God incarnate, not just a man who is called a son of God as occurs elsewhere in both testaments. This is all the more certain based on their next words which call out, “You came here to us before torment time?”   They use a new word, kairos, which signifies a particular time. Another common word for time in Greek is chronos, which is time that continues to move forward (think of a chronometer), whereas kairos speaks of a particular time such as a season, a set time, an opportune moment, etc.   The demons acknowledge that there is a torment time coming when the demons will be punished, and more, they understand that Jesus is the One who will mete out the punishment. This is not something a regular man will be in charge of. The words leave no doubt about their knowledge that Jesus is the incarnate Lord God.   Life application: Hebrews 2 says that God has not put the world to come in subjection to angels. Instead, He has given that authority to the Son. If Jesus were an angel (meaning a created being) then it would not be referring to Him. The same logic applies to evaluating this verse in Matthew.   God has given authority to the Son to punish both the fallen angels and the humans who fail to come to God through Him. This is seen in Matthew 25:41 –   “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels.'”   The demons (fallen angels) in Matthew 8 have a place prepared for them, along with the devil. As the judgment of all beings is not granted to angels (meaning created beings), then it logically follows that Jesus is not an angel. However, this is the doctrine of the Jehovah's Witnesses. They claim that Jesus is the archangel Michael.   It is true that the same word in both Hebrew and Greek, which is translated as “angel,” can simply mean a messenger, and this is what both John the Baptist and Jesus are called in Malachi 3:1. But context determines the meaning and the context is that the Messenger of Malachi 3:1 is the Lord, Yehovah.   Care needs to be taken when evaluating Scripture. Be certain to take all things you are taught with a grain of salt until you have verified them yourself. The deity of Jesus Christ is key to a right relationship with God. Any gospel message that is presented, and which denies this fundamental precept, it is a false gospel. Jesus is the Lord God.   Glorious God, thank You for sending Jesus to redeem us from sin. We know that You united with humanity in the Person of Jesus, and we hail You for what You have done. May we never deny the truth that Jesus is our Lord God! Amen.  

Title: The Lamb of God: John 19:34, John the Baptist, and Ash Wednesday Description: As we reflect on Ash Wednesday, a day of repentance and remembrance of our mortality, we turn to the Gospel of John, where we see the fulfillment of John the Baptist's proclamation: "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29). In John 19:34, the Gospel recounts how a soldier pierced Jesus' side, and from it flowed blood and water—powerful symbols of our salvation. This moment ties directly to the purpose of Christ's sacrifice: to cleanse us from sin and restore us to God. Join us in this time of contemplation as we connect John the Baptist's witness, the meaning of Ash Wednesday, and the significance of Christ's suffering for our redemption.

In this segment from the Son Rise Morning Show on Sacred Heart Radio, Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C. discusses begins a new series connecting Advent to the Eucharist and focuses on Christ as the Lamb of God in the Eucharist.Fr. Frank makes the connection to what the priest says when showing the Eucharist: “Behold the Lamb of God”, the Sacrifice of the Christ the Lamb of God for us, and the Mass as a re-presentation of the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross, dying for our sins.Christmas is the "most wonderful time of the year”: trees are trimmed, presents wrapped, and the chilly air signals the coming season of festive warmth. But did you know we're not really ready for Christmas without first observing a "little Lent?" Advent is one of the highlights of our liturgical year. Every year, at the end of the summer, I begin to yearn for colder days. Then autumn rolls around with the beautiful changing leaves, pumpkin pies, and the days seem to go by quicker and quicker (no thanks to Daylight Saving Time!). Then, just after Thanksgiving, we run right into Advent. Each year, it feels like we are sprinting to get to the holiday season and run right through Christmas and New Years. This year, though, I want to be more intentional about celebrating the joy of Advent and run an Advent Marathon, instead of my usual sprint.Notes:Read about St. John the Baptist hereLearn more about Advent hereView Eucharistic Revival ResourcesRead Ad Infinitum blog posts on Advent Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify Fr.

Thought to share? Send me a text...Ever wondered how embracing a supporting role can shape your leadership journey? Join me, Betsy Marvin, as I weave a personal narrative from my high school band days, playing the flute, to explore the profound concept of "second chair" leadership. Through the lens of John the Baptist, who perfectly embodied the essence of humility and purpose in a supporting role, we explore how true leadership often requires knowing when to lead and when to support. As we delve into the Gospel of John, discover how the introduction of Jesus paints a vivid picture of his divine purpose.  Through the compelling stories of Andrew, Philip, and Nathaniel, learn about the transformative power of acknowledging Jesus's rightful place in our lives and the unique way he calls each of us to witness life's greater things. Together, we'll explore how feeling seen and known by God can redefine our understanding of faith and leadership. To read my blog, find out more about me, or to book a speaking engagement, head to https://betsymarvin.com/For access to past podcasts and transcripts, head tohttps://betsymarvin.com/podcasts/You can follow me on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/betsyjmarvin/and Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/betsy.marvin.98

UWACU Campus Bible Talk (05 March 2024)

"Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" In this episode, by looking at the Scriptural meaning and themes of "the lamb," we can better understand the gravity of the words we hear every mass... but perhaps have never truly heard. These words, spoken by John the Baptist (John 1:29), are familiar to us, as Catholics. We hear them at each mass as the priest raises the consecrated bread and wine high to the Heavens. But, as John spoke these words, they would have had familiar meaning to the believers of his time, as well! What did they hear in these words that led people to immediately follow Jesus (John 1:37)?

Micah Klutinoty in Week 04 of the series, Behold the Lamb! John 1:19-28

As we continue in our series through the book of John, we see how John the Evangelist harmonizes the quest for truth with the melodies of life, much like a John Williams score accompanies an epic tale. We navigate the narrative of John the Baptist, whose role in heralding the Messiah frames our understanding of Jesus as the Lamb of God. Our discussion extends beyond the biblical text, drawing rich parallels between the journeys we undertake in our daily lives and the transformational encounters with grace and identity.As we unravel the anticipation of the Messiah within Jewish tradition, Pastor Ricky's insights shed light on the profound declarations of John the Baptist and the role of prophecy in shaping the narrative of Jesus' coming. We examine key biblical events where God's voice affirms Jesus's preeminence, reflecting on the eternal nature of Christ and His centrality in our faith journey. We don't  just recount these stories; we want you to ponder the implications of these truths in our own lives, challenging us to see ourselves not just as observers, but as participants in a story of redemption.We finish with an inspirational look at the tale of Jean Valjean from "Les Misérables," where grace redefines identity and purpose. Pastor Ricky connects this to our own search for significance, urging us to find our worth not in our achievements, but in the grace and truth found in Christ. By fixing our gaze upon the true Lamb of God, we are invited to embrace a life-changing shift in perspective that promises to influence how we view ourselves and the world around us. Join us as we desire for you to reflect on your own path toward redemption and the profound impact of Jesus' presence in your life.

Step into the radiant message of John 1:6-13 as Drew Suttles joins to shed light on John the Baptist's pivotal role and Jesus as the Light of the world.

What does it mean to answer Jesus' call? John Stott wrote, “At its simplest Christ's call was ‘Follow me.' He asked men and women for their personal allegiance. He invited them to learn from him, to obey his words and to identify themselves with his cause. To follow Christ is to renounce all lesser loyalties.” In Matthew 4, Jesus' public ministry had begun. John the Baptist had been taken into custody, and, because of the growing threat, Jesus left Nazareth and settled in Capernaum. There He preached publicly a message of repentance, an acknowledgment of sin and a turning from it (v. 17). Two fishermen, Peter and Andrew (v. 18), were familiar with Jesus, since Andrew had been a disciple of John the Baptist (John 1:35–42). They'd already considered Jesus' mission and message. When Jesus said to them, “Come, follow me” (v. 19), they were prepared to immediately leave their boats, their occupation, and their livelihood—and follow Jesus. Next, Jesus called another pair of brothers, James and John, who were fishing with their father. When He called them, “immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him” (v. 22). The magnitude of their obedience is highlighted by the fact that they also left their family. While discipleship was a common concept in the Jewish culture, being a disciple of Jesus was distinct. The traditional model involved a rabbi, demonstrating his teaching of the Torah, and his disciples following his pattern. Certainly, Jesus' disciples were committed to His teaching, but they were even more committed to His person. Jesus was not only offering them temporal teacher training but also inviting them into an eternal kingdom relationship. >> The call of first disciples highlights Jesus' authority. When He calls us to follow, the only appropriate response is obedience and utter dedication. A renouncing of all “lesser loyalties.” A complete realignment of focus and life.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this edition of Channeling History, we investigate what it was like to know Jesus by speaking to the spirits of those who knew him best; John the Baptist, John the Apostle, Mary Magdalene and Peter the Apostle. This is an outstanding and powerful show where you hear information about the life of our Lord from those who knew him best. Please tell your friends about our shows.
