The Suffering Messiah<br />
Twenty-fourth Sunday in<br />
Ordinary Time<br />
<strong>September</strong> <strong>16</strong>, 2012<br />
In today’s Gospel, Jesus asks this question to <strong>the</strong> people, who do you say I am? Among <strong>the</strong> responses<br />
He received were John <strong>the</strong> Baptizer, Elijah, or one of <strong>the</strong> Prophets. After receiving <strong>the</strong>se<br />
answers, Christ asked <strong>the</strong> disciples (apostles) <strong>the</strong>mselves who <strong>the</strong>y thought Christ to be. <strong>St</strong>. Peter<br />
answered directly, "You are <strong>the</strong> Messiah," <strong>the</strong> anointed one of God. Christ turns to Peter and says,<br />
"Blessed are you Simon Bar-Jonah because flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my<br />
Fa<strong>the</strong>r who is in Heaven.<br />
Our Lord reveals that Peter's knowledge of our Lord was directly given him by God <strong>the</strong> Fa<strong>the</strong>r in<br />
Heaven.<br />
In Mark's Gospel <strong>the</strong> story concerning <strong>St</strong>. Peter is shown that according to tradition, <strong>St</strong>. Peter<br />
and <strong>St</strong>. Mark were close friends.<br />
Then Christ teaches <strong>the</strong>m that <strong>the</strong> Messiah was to be a suffering Messiah. He had to suffer and<br />
die at <strong>the</strong> hands of evil men. He was not <strong>the</strong> Messiah of glory like Caesar but <strong>the</strong> humble, and I<br />
emphasize, <strong>the</strong> humble Servant.<br />
To <strong>the</strong> average Jew <strong>the</strong> idea was that <strong>the</strong> Messiah was to be like Solomon or David with a great<br />
earthly kingdom. The <strong>Apostle</strong>s who, of course, were Jewish were stunned at <strong>the</strong> thought that <strong>the</strong><br />
Messiah had to suffer and die. Peter drew our Lord aside and began to scold Him for <strong>the</strong> idea of<br />
suffering. But Our Lord reprimanded him, "Get out of sight Satan, you are not judging by God's<br />
standards but by human standards." By Satan (Devil) Christ meant Satan who was suggesting to<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Peter that Christ could not suffer. Peter admitted that Jesus was <strong>the</strong> Messiah and Devine but<br />
rejected <strong>the</strong> idea of suffering, which most humans also reject.<br />
This dialogue with Christ showed that <strong>St</strong>. Peter was to be <strong>the</strong> natural spokesman and leader of<br />
<strong>the</strong> twelve apostles, and Pope (Supreme Pastor) head of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Church</strong> founded by Christ. Then Our<br />
Lord told <strong>the</strong> <strong>Apostle</strong>s a truth for <strong>the</strong>m and for all of us. "If a person wishes to come after me, he<br />
must deny his very self, and take up his cross and follow in my steps.<br />
<strong>St</strong>. James in his Epistle tells us that carrying our cross with faith shows our true love of<br />
Christ. Living <strong>the</strong> corporal works of mercy with faith. The corporal Works of Mercy are:<br />
l) To feed <strong>the</strong> hungry, 2) to clo<strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong> naked, 3) to give drink to <strong>the</strong> thirsty, 4) to visit <strong>the</strong> sick,<br />
5) to visit those in need, 6) to give shelter to <strong>the</strong> homeless, and 7) and to bury <strong>the</strong> dead. This<br />
shows we are living in sanctifying grace. For a faith that is living in love is <strong>the</strong> essence of <strong>the</strong> Gospel.<br />
<strong>St</strong>. James in his epistle makes it clear we are not justified by faith alone, we are justified by<br />
faith and works of love (James 2, Verse 24).<br />
We all have crosses and sufferings but if we unite <strong>the</strong>m with Our Lord, (1 Colossians, Verse 4)<br />
great graces will follow from <strong>the</strong> Holy Spirit!<br />
