Excerpt from Meditations on the Sacraments and Christian Life for Priests and Seminarians "After John had been imprisoned, Jesus returned to Galilee to preach God's Good Message, This was his theme: 'The time of waiting is over, the kingdom of God is close at hand. Change your evil ways; believe in the Good Message.'" Mark 1:14-16. I have chosen as the theme of this meditation the summary of the teaching of Our Lord as given by St. Mark. Generally the biblical scholars agree that Mark didn't wish to express how Christ began to teach. Indeed the first preaching of Our Lord was longer, not just three phrases. Mark wishes to give a whole summary. He wished to show the very structure of the preaching of Our Lord. This is the program of the teaching of Our Lord and it should be the program for this retreat. Jesus began to proclaim the Good Tidings. It is Good Tidings, the Good News, and why? Above all because it is Jesus. "Salvator Mundi", salvation. It is Jesus, the Only-Begotten Son. In the same chapter of St. Mark is contained the baptism of Christ. There the heavens opened and a voice came from heavens "This is My Beloved Son". The Father proclaims from heaven it is My Son, My Beloved to whom you shall listen. So in the text it is clear what is the essence or heart of the message of the Gospel - it is not some messenger, prophet, patriarch or preacher, it is the Word of God, the Beloved Son of the Father. It is the Word that has made the world, it is the Word-made-Man, it is this Blissful Word to whom the Father from all eternity has given all his wisdom, power, and love. It is the Word in which the Father expresses His beatitude, and this is the Gospel coming from God. As better texts say; "Jesus begins to preach the Gospel coming from God." It is the Word Himself, the Son, Who comes. How wonderful were the words of Pope Paul at the beginning of the second session of the Vatican Councils "per Christum solum Dominum"; that the Church in the council will not bring another message to the world but Christ. He is the messenger, but not a messenger as a prophet bringing a message of future times or a message beyond himself. Here we have a messenger Who is Himself the message, beatitude, and salvation. The first attitude, therefore, dear friends, in our whole Christian life and especially during these days of retreat is to listen to Christ and not to watch and to judge the retreat master. "Oculi mei semper ad Dominum". We should be aware that it is still the Lord who brings the Good Tidings, as the Constitution on the Liturgy says, "in ecclesiae Christus adhuc praedicat."
