Jeremiah. 11:18-20. John 7:40-52
The Word fulfils all that
the Father wills and purposes.
The faithful and the true
of heart in every generation
witness to the loving power
and powerful glory of the
Father through what they
say and through what they
are becoming. The Incarnate
Word was faithful from the
beginning and so was able
to fulfil the Father's will
for His beloved sons and
daughters, namely salvation
and eternal life.
But suffering is the inevitable
consequence of wilful sin,
and it comes to many who
are faithful to the truth
as they identify it. It
falls as well on those who
are not part of the perversity
and sin of those committing
it, for man is part of a
sentient whole. But by this
same token the virtue of
the one affects the well-being
of the many, and suffering
love is its own dynamic.
But the dynamic fact and
truth is that the Father's
Word Incarnate Who also
is Incarnate Love through
His death and risen life
redeems and saves and, with
Our Holy Spirit, sanctifies.
Identify, embrace, and
follow.
