FROM THE PASTOR
I wish to offer you my prayers and blessings on this
Easter Day. Christ is Risen! Today marks the real historical
event when Jesus, who had been scourged and crucified,
dead and buried in a tomb, rose bodily from the grave. Having been glorified by his, and now our Father, Jesus rises
from the tomb. It’s important that we not liken his resurrection to mere resuscitation. Resuscitation is what happens on
those medical dramas on television when a person’s heart
stops and then re-started. Jesus’ body was glorified, transformed into a spiritual body not subject to aging, wrinkles,
acne, being too skinny or too fat and certainly not subject to
death. Rather, he is Lord over death and his risen and glorified body is not subject to space and time.
As we remember from the scriptures and our religious education, Jesus came to teach us the way to heaven
and, in fact, is the only way to heaven. He took upon himself our sins and when he died on the cross so did our sins.
He, however, is the risen one and now sits at the Father’s
right hand to intercede for us. For all who believe in him, he
has given the promise of a resurrection like his. If we seek
him, love him, worship and adore him with sincere hearts
the resurrection of the body to glory awaits us.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen once offered that the type
of resurrected body we will possess depends on the state of
the soul in death. Those who die with unrepented mortal
sins will also be raised up but not to glory. We cannot know
what will happen to those bodies exactly until the day when
we see it. The Lord himself calls it the resurrection of condemnation (John 5:29) when those who do evil take their
bodies with them to fires of hell. Needless to say, we must
do our best to avoid it so please confess any grave sins and
practice your faith with sincerity. Those who do seek the
Lord with sincere hearts will not rise to condemnation but to
glory! We have been predestined to share in the glory of
Jesus Christ, to be raised up like him on the last day. Where
he has gone we hope to follow.
Rejoice today that Jesus is risen from the dead. He
reigns in glory in the Kingdom of Heaven and will come
back again to take us with him so that we too might reign
with him with glorified bodies of our own. Give thanks to
the Lord for he is good, his love endures forever!

DEL PASTOR
Domingo de Pascua: La Resurrección del Señor
Deseo ofrecerles mis oraciones y bendiciones en
este Domingo de Cuaresma. ¡Cristo ha Resucitado! Hoy
Marca el acontecimiento histórico verdadero, cuando Jesús
que había sido azotado y crucificado, muerto y enterrado en
una tumba, levanto su persona de la tumba. Glorificado por
su, y ahora nuestro, Padre Jesús se levanta de la tumba. Es
importante que nosotros no comparemos su resurrección a
mera resucitación. La resucitación es lo que sucede en esos
dramas médicos en la televisión cuando el corazón de una
persona se para y luego reinicia. El cuerpo de Jesús fue glorificado, transformado en un cuerpo espiritual no sujeto al
envejecimiento, las arrugas, el acné, ser demasiado flaco ni
demasiado gordo y ciertamente no sujeto a la muerte. Más
bien, es Señor sobre la muerte y su cuerpo resucitado y glorificado no es sujeto al espacio y tiempo.
Al recordar las escrituras y nuestra educación religiosa, Jesús vino a enseñarnos la manera de ir al cielo, y de
hecho es la única manera se ir al cielo. Tomó sobre él mismo
nuestros pecados y cuando murió en la cruz también nuestros pecados. El, sin embargo, resucito y ahora esta sentado
a la mano derecha del Padre para interceder por nosotros.
Por todos los que cree en él, él ha dado la promesa de una
resurrección como la suya. Si lo buscamos, amamos, veneramos y lo adoramos con corazones sinceros, la resurrección
del cuerpo a la gloria nos aguarda.
El arzobispo Fulton Sheen ofreció una vez que el
tipo del cuerpo resucitado que poseeremos depende del estado del alma en la muerte. Los que se mueren con pecados
mortales sin arrepentimiento también serán resucitados pero
no a la gloria. Nosotros no podemos saber lo que les sucederá a esos cuerpos exactamente hasta el día que lo veamos.
El propio Señor le llama la resurrección de condenación
(Juan 5:29) cuando los que hacen el mal llevan sus cuerpos
con ellos al fuego del infierno. Innecesario decir, debemos
hacer cuanto podamos para evitarlo, por favor confiesen
algún pecado grave y practique su fe con sinceridad. ¡Los
que buscan al Señor con corazones sinceros no resucitaran a
la condenación sino a la gloria! Hemos sido predestinados
para compartir en la gloria de Jesucristo, para ser levantados
como él en el último día. Dónde él ha ido esperamos seguirlo.
Alégrense hoy que Jesús ha resucitado. Reina en la
gloria en el Reino de los cielos y regresará otra vez para llevarnos con él, para que nosotros quizás reinemos con él, con
nuestros propios cuerpos glorificados. ¡Den gracias al Señor
por que es bueno, su amor dura para siempre!
