📜 Isaiah 1 in Today’s World
The Heart of the Holy Trinity
- The Father: Omnipotent, just and merciful — inseparable attributes. He gave His everything to restore Eden at Calvary.
- The Son: Left His everything for mankind and His Church. Shed every drop of blood at Calvary for humanity and His Bride.
- The Spirit: In agreement with the Father and the Son, sharing the same agape love. Forms, convicts, and daily calls mankind back to the Father.
Their Lament
- Today, their infinite effort seems not to bear fruit.
- Humanity resists grace, rebels against commandments, and loses the sense of sin.
The Parable of the Fig Tree
- Jesus mediates day and night to keep the fig tree alive.
- Through the Eucharist, the sacrifice of Calvary is made present.
- Judah = the whole world.
- Jerusalem = the Roman Catholic Church.
