You can't destroy him because he's beyond creation.
He is the Lord of creation, but he allows it to happen out of love for all of us.
And, you know, I mean, it's just so rich with images that can be beneficial to all of us.
us to hear Christ in this time, in this moment, in our history, for the world, for this nation, for the Catholic Church, for Christians, to hear Christ say to those who are literally in the moment, nailing him to a cross, killing him, Father, forgive them.
They know not what they do.
To have that kind of mercy and compassion in your heart is
And we've seen some saints that have echoed it.
St.
Stephen, the first martyr, echoed his Lord in saying that.
But that is, again, going back to where's the threat?
That is a very threatening sentiment when you think, when we think, when the world thinks that the powers of the world can ultimately prevail, to hear the man being destroyed by the world saying, Father, forgive them.
They know not what they do.
It reminds us that we've got to retune our hearts and our minds to the message of Jesus Christ and to face
everything we're facing that is it it it's like holy week being played out again at writ large in our time the the the hidden messages and the the plottings and the confusing i mean here we have things being hailed as wonderful and then underneath it on the the underbelly is a darkness of plotting
the destruction of innocence and the destruction of lives that really have nothing to do with this.
So once again, I go back to that idea of we have to, I mean, the gauge has to be the large scale destruction of civilian life can never be morally justified.
And, you know, with Christ, I mean, it was one man, but
In terms of reality, in terms of the universe, trying to kill Jesus Christ, Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth, killing him, I mean, they were successful in killing him.
He died on the cross.
But that is large-scale destruction of innocent life, of civilian life.
