From the Pastor Reflection
The first Church council, the Council of Jerusalem we hear about in today's First Reading, decided the shape of the Church as we know it. Some Jewish Christians had wanted Gentile converts to be circumcised and obey all the complex ritual and purity laws of the Jews. The council called this a heresy, again showing us that the Church in the divine plan is meant to be a worldwide family of God, no longer a covenant with just one nation. Today's Liturgy gives us a profound meditation on the nature and meaning of the Church. The Church is One, as we see in the First Reading: "the Apostles [bishops] and presbyters [priests], in agreement with the whole Church [laity]." The Church is Holy, taught and guided by the Spirit that Jesus promises the Apostles in the Gospel. The Church is Catholic, or universal, making known God's ways of salvation to all peoples, ruling all in equity, as we sing in today's Psalm. And the Church, as John sees in the Second Reading, is Apostolic - founded on the twelve Apostles of the Lamb. All these marks of the Church are underscored in the story of the council. Notice that everybody, including Paul, looks to "Jerusalem [and] ...the Apostles" to decide the Church's true teaching. The Apostles, too, presume that Christian teachers need a "mandate from us." And we see the Spirit guiding the Apostles in all truth. Notice how they describe their ruling: "It is the decision of the Holy Spirit and of us." Knowing these truths about the Church, our hearts should never be troubled. The Liturgy's message today is that the Church is the Lord's, watched over and guarded by the Advocate, the Holy Spirit sent by the Father in the name of the Son. This should fill us with confidence, free us to worship with exultation, inspire us to rededicate our lives to His Name - to love Jesus in our keeping of His Word, to rejoice that He and the Father in the Spirit have made their dwelling with us.
Religion can be a lot like a diet. Every so often something comes along that captures people’s attention and becomes the fad of the month. It’s guaranteed to make you better and stronger, and help you achieve your goals with almost no effort at all. If you don’t do it, you will be missing something in your life. Your life will be miserable, or worthless, or below average—some expression that will make you want to join or try the newest craze. Jesus knows that His Body, the Church, needs two things to sur-vive: love and unity. Love joins us to the heart of Christ, acting towards others as He would. When that unity is threatened, the Apostles act to spell out what is necessary to be part of the Church so that both Jew and gentile can be united at the table of the Lord. When love and unity are present, the Lord makes His dwelling. Where two or three are gathered in His Name, God is present. Unity joins us to the mind of Christ, giving us a common practice that helps us preach and teach the Gospel. We are united because of love, and love unites us together. We must work together to achieve our mission, united in faith yet diversified in gifts. Divi-sion serves no purpose. There is no fad, no shortcut, no easy way to live the Gospel. Live and love, united as one with the Lord.
