Our pastor always intones his homily with the plainchant from Good Friday, "Behold the wood of the Cross, on which hung the saviour of the world. Come let us worship."<BR/><BR/>And of course, the first reading is one of the first sacraments in the Bible. It's an amazing apologetical resource: God instituted a visible sign into the world to give His life. The NT Sacraments differ only a little insofar as they give spiritual life instead of physical, but the general apparatus of a sacrament is completely present in the story of Moses.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for a great reflection.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074739091726231927noreply@blogger.com
