Today I want to talk about a beautiful spring holiday - Easter, talk about the attitude and preparing myself for this holiday. We know that in traditional denominations - in Catholicism and Orthodoxy, the foresaw week is the final week of the Great Lent, and during this week it is ordered to especially recall the suffering of Christ for our sins, which is also reflected in the liturgies themselves committed in churches. I think that it is also useful for us to follow this tradition and direct our hearts to reflect on the procession of our Savior. Easter is a feast of the victory of life over death, but it’s hard for us to think about death, we try to avoid these thoughts, and in general we tend to be frivolous, but if there is no death, then there is no resurrection, if there is no empathy of Christ, then joy and joy We will not be able to experience his resurrection as it should. We can read in the Gospel that although his disciples fled during the arrest of Jesus, but during his suffering they were there, at his cross. Jesus, having exclaimed in a loud voice, said: Father! In your hands I betray my spirit. And, saying this, he let out the spirit. Nevertheless, who knew him, and the women who followed him from Galilee stood in the distance and looked at it. Onion. 23: 46; 49. We live in a time when in peacetime we see not many deaths. But in the days of Christ, everyone (except the richest for whom the servants did it), who wanted to eat meat or sacrifice the animal, as a rule, killed it himself. And the Bible compares the death of Christ with the sacrifice of the lamb: the next day John of Jesus sees and says: here is the Lamb of God, who takes on the sin of the world. In. 1:29. And Isaiah also says prophetically: he was torturing, but he suffered voluntarily and did not open his mouth; Like a sheep, he was led to a slaughter, and as an lamb before the stripping him was miserable, so he did not open his mouth. IS. 53: 7. Not so long ago I had a case that reminded me of this scripture. The sheep really does not resist the killer who killed it and when I saw this, my (not the softest) heart was affected, and I still remember this death of the lavish in detail. Moreover, I think that the students of Jesus, who first watched his torture, and then the witnesses of his shameful execution, could not throw it out of memory! And although Jesus told them about his resurrection, they were so crushed by grief from his death that they did not believe him until he appeared to them the risen. We need to understand that until the death of Christ is really perceived by us as deeply amazing emotional experience, just the news of His resurrection will remain for us just some kind of information. Ap. Paul was not at the Cross of Christ (otherwise I would think he wrote about it), but he was shocked by another death, the death of the first minister of Stefan, which he writes about: and when the blood of Stephen was spilled, my witness, I stood there, approved by his murder and the murder of His and the killing He wiped his clothes beat him. Acts. 22:20. We see that Paul himself writes that he approved the killing of Stefan, but the way he accepted death for Paul became a turning point in his life. We can also read in the Gospel that the execution of Jesus Christ, the way He accepted death, made an indelible impression even on the people who shouted “cut Him”: and the whole people who went to this sight, seeing what was happening, returned, Bias of himself. In the chest. Onion. 23:48. Moreover, even the Roman centurion, who commanded the execution (i.e., the head of the executioner brigade), was deeply shocked by the death of Jesus: Jesus, having exclaimed in a loud voice, said: Father! In your hands I betray my spirit. And, saying this, he let out the spirit. The centurion, seeing what was happening, glorified God and said: Truly this man was a righteous. Onion. 23: 46-47. This centurion probably saw dozens (if not hundreds) of deaths, but it was the death of Christ that brought him into awe. According to the tradition of the church, this centurion was called Longin and later he took a martyrdom for faith in Christ. He is revered as a martyr in the Orthodox tradition. Friends, today it is important to hear that God made the death of Christ with a medicine against the bitterness of our hearts, but this medicine is too bitter for us and we behave exactly as Isaiah says: He was despicable and dull before people, the husband of sorrows and out of illness, And we turned our face away from him; He was despised, and we put him in anything. IS. 53: 3. Today I urge us to turn to the suffering of Christ and ask God to give and to survive His death so that it affects and changes us! Ap. Paul was successful precisely because he literally “painted” the picture of the crucifixion of Christ in the minds of those whom he preached! Oh, meaningless Galatians! Who seduced you not to submit to the truth, you, in whom Jesus Christ was destined before your eyes, how would you have crucified? Gal. 3: 1. Pavel uses a word translated as “destined”, but it means something more, it makes sense “a message put on public display”, i.e. Do something completely clear for everyone! Paul says his message made cm?
