“Do you wish to learn the secret of true Eucharistic prayer? Consider, then, all the mysteries in the light of the Blessed Sacrament. It is a divine prism through which they can all be studied. The Holy Eucharist is, indeed, 'Jesus Christ, yesterday, and today, and the same forever' (Heb 13:8). In this Sacrament He glorifies all the mysteries of His life and prolongs, as it were, the exercise of all His virtues. The Eucharist is, in a word, the great Mystery of our faith to which all Catholic truths lead” LightTodayJesusWishChristPrayerSecretForeverVirtueMysteryDivineExerciseHolyJesus ChristCatholicBlessedYesterdaySacramentsGlorifyEucharistBlessed SacramentPrismsEucharisticHoly EucharistYesterday And Today Author:Peter Julian Eymard

“Major Greene this evening fell into some conversation with me about the Divinity and satisfaction of Jesus Christ. All the argument he advanced was, "that a mere creature or finite being could not make satisfaction to infinite justice for any crimes," and that "these things are very mysterious." Thus mystery is made a convenient cover for absurdity.” MadeWisdomJesusChristJusticeMysteryCrimeConversationCreaturesMajorsJesus ChristArgumentInfiniteMereSatisfactionMysteriousEveningDivinityAbsurdityFiniteConvenient Book:Diary and Autobiography of John Adams: Diary, 1755-1770 Source: Diary and Autobiography of John Adams: Diary, 1755-1770
“To abandon all, to strip one's self of all, in order to seek and follow Jesus Christ naked to Bethlehem where He was born, naked to the hall where He was scourged, and naked to Calvary where He died on the cross, is so great a mystery that neither the thing nor the knowledge of it, is given to any but through faith in the Son of God.” SelfOrderJesusGivenChristBornMysterySonJesus ChristCrossesDiedNakedAbandonHallsCalvaryBethlehem Author:John Wesley

“The nativity mystery “conceived from the Holy Spirit and born from the Virgin Mary”, means, that God became human, truly human out of his own grace. The miracle of the existence of Jesus , his “climbing down of God” is: Holy Spirit and Virgin Mary! Here is a human being, the Virgin Mary, and as he comes from God, Jesus comes also from this human being. Born of the Virgin Mary means a human origin for God. Jesus Christ is not only truly God, he is human like every one of us. He is human without limitation. He is not only similar to us, he is like us.” HumansMeanSpiritJesusChristBornHuman BeingsExistenceGraceMysteryHolyJesus ChristMiracleLimitationHoly SpiritClimbingMaryVirginsVirgin MaryNativity Author:Karl Barth
“The only cross in all of history that was turned into an altar was the cross on which Jesus Christ died. It was a Roman cross. They nailed Him on it, and God, in His majesty and mystery, turned it into an altar. The Lamb who was dying in the mystery and wonder of God was turned into the Priest who offered Himself. No one else was a worthy offering.” JesusChristWonderMysteryDyingJesus ChristCrossesDiedWorthyPriestsOfferingEasterMajestyAltarsLambs Author:Aiden Wilson Tozer
