AI Summary: 

The talk focuses on the concept of divine visitations and how they represent critical moments for inspection and reflection in the lives of believers. This is likened to inspections in various professions, with a specific emphasis on the transformative power of spiritual visitations in Christian theology. The discussion draws parallels between Old Testament concepts of inspection and the New Testament's emphasis on grace and salvation through Jesus Christ. The role of ecclesiastical figures like bishops and their pastoral responsibilities during visitations is also highlighted as part of this spiritual tradition, underlining the profound impact of such engagements.

  • Jeremiah's "Tempest and Dissolution": This work is referenced in the context of explaining the Old Testament idea of a "Day of Inspection" where divine judgment or interventions were considered moments of critical change.

  • Example of St. Peter: St. Peter's transformative experience during his "visitation" from Christ is discussed, illustrating a pivotal instance of personal spiritual change and forgiveness within Christian teaching.

  • Christian Eucharist: Highlighted as a recurring "visitation," where believers commemorate the visitative and salvific act of Christ's presence in the Eucharist as a continuous source of spiritual nourishment and renewal.

  • Ordination and Role of a Bishop: The role of bishops as spiritual inspectors and how their visitations are seen as necessary acts of divine oversight and care within the church community, reflecting the model of Christ as the ultimate shepherd.

Transcript: 

to gather here to celebrate the Sunday of the 8th day and it is appropriate to say a word that may help us find and give the right response to these divine visitations because that is the key word of today's gospel. I would not be able to choose it, because Jerusalem does not know, it does not find the answer. It does not know what to do on the day of the divine visitation. There are moments in the human life in which God's power comes into it in a special way, critical form. The moment of Catholic land, one thinks about the history of this world, time of visitation, the moment for a kind of inspection, one would say.

[01:14]

Visitation, inspection. Everybody knows that. Every one of the groups. Sir, the army knows what it means when the general asks to be spent. Everything has been just so. Especially everything that serves the metier of the soldier. I mean the weapons that he has, of which he is in charge. or in the business establishment. The books have to be inspected and have to be found in oil. And everybody is on a job, even in great, because those buyers that want to inspect, they are the fish you are. and their profession is to discover the mistake that is the meaning of the day of inspection.

[02:25]

Now this irony of ours applies also to the relation between the dog of the Old Testament and his chosen people. Father Jeremiah's collectivist work, Tempest Dissolution, the Day of Inspection. And that Day of Inspection, that modern day, that is maybe a capitalistic note of the Old Testament, that later is, for Christian honor, where I was directed towards the media of the chosen people of God's firstborn son. And these eyes of ours looked into the book, the book of life. And what were they searching for?

[03:27]

Searching for this book and whatever was written in the book. would be a calling to the Lord, a calling to the wounds set down by the inspector, by God, who gave to the chosen people the claim of baptism, the law, you're willing to stop, and of course what they did, and of course what exactly took place, I heard, who? So they were the day of inspection became synonymous with the day of action. Inspection from the powers of the young ones who would have given to most of the law. And this law stated, if you don't do it, talk of it and you shall die.

[04:32]

The world constantly speaks. Those who are under the law will pronounce the same object without touch. But now that we've heard the way the shamanology of Christ uses this term today, then we see what a tremendous change has taken place. This is your day, Jerusalem, he said. This is your day. This is the time of your visitation. That he would openly know what's her good. That is, therefore, the meaning of this invitation. And what God expects Don't you two don't want eagles on what contributes and makes their feet?

[05:35]

And what is it? Now that again depends. Just as the eyes of a general look at the weapons, because the general law of the general of the soldier is that of war and that of fight. And we can still walk through the face and face, look at the books and see if the discovery is important or not. So we fear when the Son of God comes to visit Jerusalem. And that is naturally the city of peace, the vision of peace. When the son of man and son of God comes to inspect Jerusalem, when he turns his eyes toward his chosen people whom he loves, these eyes are the eyes of the Lord who loves.

[06:49]

They are the eyes of the Savior. They are the eyes of the one who wants to stay. Because he said, I did not come to judge. I came to save. That's the only difference between the old and the new day. So the visitation of this kind of God-made man has completely different me. It is in becoming present. It is more than becoming present. It is giving himself. That's the point. These are not all little secrets. They are honest words given. We regard them as secrets.

[07:50]

So whatever in which the Lord Jesus Christ looks and sees, that is a culmination of it. Because it is a culmination of what he is. Take the example of St. Peter. St. Peter, who had delights before. who therefore mentioned the book, was worth the attention. Now the scripture gives us a description of the visitation, the moment, the critical moment in the life of Satan. Our Lord turns around and he came back. He gave him the food he died of his death, of his eyes.

[08:54]

And in his eyes, the finger could breathe. He could read the things. And that sentence was a sentence of forgiveness. That sentence was a life. Here I am. count them little things of the world, and you will see. And for this you will see, I tell. And in this way, I narrate a word. That is the time of the situation. For St. Peter, what then it was, did we answer. For there is to be a fever that will indeed now let and wet the The artist was broke. A new dimension opened up, and a new life was given to him.

[09:56]

The life not of the sick, the life not of the one who always knew better than the others what to do, not the life of one who always had the first word and the last word, but now the die of the world who believe in that sacred die of the good shepherd. You could know that I have. He put his heart into the saying of the Godhead, not that loving land of God's forgiving heart. And that is Jesus. Now, my dear friends, we have these days of visitation. And when we know what kind of visit we have to receive, then we also know what serves for other people.

[11:05]

We met when at length they were studying our dear Father Christopher Worsley. That is yet follows in our involvement of music. And at this moment of visitation, you would think that you remembered the word that was spoken and to which we were supposed to listen. That word sent away was what is said. You bought me to be a house. I shall build you a house. That was the word that went on the divine visit. That was the saving work of the one who came to the instance, but with the loving eyes of the one who called into that place that he in his own mercy and in his own power can be, for the one who really loves and agrees to dwell in that house.

[12:21]

Let them be put. And then we had another day of visitation. And that was the ordination. The ordination of our Father Martin. They are the bishop here. You know, bishop is in Greek, episkopos. And episkopos means just the sign in root. And me is the overspeaker. It means the one who comes for inspection. The indicator. And we all realize that when the bishop of the Dalai comes, everything has to be just so. And how was that just so? Hope, he came here. He stood at his table. And we were all around him. And he celebrated And I know so.

[13:25]

He was surrounded by the enthusiastic response of his people. They feared that our bishop came with a loving heart. They were distinctive of their bishop. After the good shepherd of the Lord Jesus Christ, So what was the response? The response was an enthusiasm, a yes, a yes, to be. And what was the future? Was there another priest, another priest, another inspector, another officer? For what was he already? He was saying he will receive and bear the delegation for a visitation. What is the visitation? That priest comes to have with his people.

[14:28]

He comes to the altar and there he announces the blasphemy of the gospel. And then he decoats, and he consecrates, he gives the correct and the one. And he stares in the name of God. This is my body, this is my blood. Eat, drink it, eat for the forgiveness of your sins. That is the Christian dedication. The visitator comes to take a look. But what is there now in thine giving? Give it in ears of old. What is then our answer? Come to the table and receive this. Blessed therefore are those that are hungry and thirsty for justice.

[15:30]

And they which come and want to receive the body and the blood of the one who comes to visit. Therefore, this visitation, my dear friends, it is a meeting. More exactly, it could not be more. It is a visit, a meeting, which is complete excellence of life. God became man that man and then he called God. That gives the meaning of the day of the city. That is the meaning for us, for yet of yesterday's people. The North of England, where we, dedicated to the mystery of the Lord's consecration, in a special way, celebrated this greatest manifestation of God's name.

[16:34]

But what was this manifestation? Was it essential object? No, it was an invitation. An invitation. It was an adoption and a thought. It was a manifestation of divine glory. But for what purpose that this glory may be shaped by those who are there and the environment, and the adopted son, that they may even become, even to be divine people, loved of the divine person. That is the meaning of the big issue. So, my dear friends and sisters, every time when we celebrate a visitation, and you realize already from what we have said, that this visitation is the celebration of this reunion.

[17:37]

That is for us, for every Christian, every week, for every day, the moment of visitation. Hope then, dear friends, that when we know, we may know what really stirs our peace in that moment. And what stirs our peace? That in the sickness and in the fullness of our faith. In the straitly dark of the morning, we come to this, we come to the oven, and then we will see him, his body and his blood, as food for our souls. In a time where infants, infants, children, dying, children, loud, not pleased, divided, Where we fear that the burden of the past, you, and things I have given, you are not my loved ones.
