JESUS CHRIST FOR A NEW WORLD ORDER

SCRIPTURE READINGS: [EX 20:1-17 (OR EX 20:1-3,7-8,12-17); 1 COR 1:22-25; JN 2:13-25]

Today 3rd of March 2024, we celebrate the Third Sunday Of Lent.  The gospel is taken from Jesus’ cleansing of the Temple.   In purifying the Temple, Jesus was establishing a new world order, where there is true worship in spirit and in truth.  This New Order will be realized when He builds a new sanctuary in Himself.  The Lord said, “Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.”  This is the urgent message of the gospel in today’s time, particularly when we are living in a fragmented and polarized world, where marriage and family life are under threat, where gender is confused, society is fragile and divided, the culture of death is promoted, wars are being fought on the international front, and many innocent lives killed in the process.   More than ever, the world has forgotten the message of love, and particularly in many traditionally Christian countries, faith in Christ is greatly compromised, the ardour and zeal for Christ and the gospel has been lost.

Today’s scripture readings speak of a new order for humanity and creation.  From the book of Exodus, Moses brought the Hebrews and a motley crowd out of Egypt, perhaps Egyptian slaves, and those from mixed marriages. This group of people will become the People of God when God made a covenant with them.  They would be the realization of what God intended for the people to be a model of unity and charity for others.  To help them to be a People of God, united in love and service, God gave them the Decalogue, the principles governing right relationship, with Him and with our fellowmen.

It is important to view the commandments, not as a list of prohibitions but positively as an invitation to spread the fire of love.  These are principles rooted in the love of God and the love of our neighbours. The first four commandments establish the place of man in the world.  The greatest danger in today’s time is when man makes himself god in the world.  Idolatry in its worst form is not the worship of statues, not even the worship of created things, but the worship of self, manifested by materialism, individualism and atheism.  The power of man is extolled above everything else, with the belief that only humanity can shape the world, ensure its progress and prosperity.  For this reason, the Sabbath law is necessary to remind man of his place in the world, that God is the creator; and that his role is to be good stewards of God’s creation.  It might appear strange that resting on the Sabbath is an obligation because man often does not allow his body to rest, and remember that work is but a means to an end, which is to build the family, maintain good relationships with our fellowmen; to be good stewards of God’s creation, and to recreate and enjoy the fruits of his labour and to worship God as His creator and divine provider.

The rest of the Decalogue provides us the principles of human relationships arising from our relationship with God, which is the love of our fellowmen.   We are called to honour and respect the members of the family, especially our elders, protect the unity of marriage, the sanctity of life, the rights of privacy and private property; and observing integrity and honesty in our dealings with our neighbours, especially with respect to other’s reputation.  Indeed, the Decalogue serves to help Israel to reflect the love of God in their lives, since they are called to be the Chosen People of God.  If God were their king, and if they were to belong to God, necessarily, they must reflect God’s truth and love in their relationships with others.

Rightly so, the psalmist praises the commandments. He said, “The law of the Lord is perfect, it revives the soul.  The rule of the Lord is to be trusted, it gives wisdom to the simple.  The precepts of the Lord are right, they gladden the heart. The command of the Lord is clear, it gives light to the eyes.”  Clearly, they did not see the laws as hindrances to live a life of freedom and joy.  On the contrary, observance of the laws of God inscribed in our hearts and in the natural order is the way to live harmoniously with ourselves, our neighbour and with the entire creation.  The destruction of the world and the planet today is due to the failure to preserve the ecology of relationships; humanity’s relationship with creation, with our fellow brothers and sisters, and most of all, with God our creator.

However, this New Order is not simply built on laws alone, irrespective how beautiful the laws are, because we know that even when we have the laws to guide us, we are weak, selfish and insecure.   The old sin of Adam lives in us.  As St Paul wrote to Timothy, “the law is laid down not for the innocent but for the lawless and disobedient, for the godless and sinful, for the unholy and profane.”  (1 Tim 1:9)  St Paul himself in his letter to the Romans shared our struggles to do good but end up doing evil because “the law of sin lives in us.”  He asked rhetorically, “Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!  (Rom 7:24-25)

Consequently, we are called to turn to Jesus who is for us the Wisdom and power of God.   However, the wisdom of God in Jesus contradicts the wisdom of the world.  “While the Jews demand miracles and the Greeks look for wisdom, here are we preaching a crucified Christ; to the Jews an obstacle that they cannot get over, to the pagans madness.” The crucified Christ contradicted the Jews’ expectation of a triumphant Messiah.  For the Messiah to be crucified on the cross underscored a curse, not a redemption.  Moses taught that “anyone hung on a tree is under God’s curse.”  (Dt 21:23)  The crucifixion proves that He was but a criminal, certainly not the Messiah, for He must have power seen in miracles as they represent “signs of power.”  For the Greeks, God was immutable and apathetic.  God, who is perfect, cannot change and cannot feel, otherwise He would be controlled and manipulated by us.  A God who suffered was a contradiction in terms.  God is immortal and not subject to change as mortal beings.  Incarnation of God is totally unacceptable.

But Jesus in His death and resurrection, demonstrated that “Christ is the power and the wisdom of God. For God’s foolishness is wiser than human wisdom, and God’s weakness is stronger than human strength.”  God shows through the incarnation of our Lord, His passion, death and resurrection that God feels with us in our humanity and redeems us through the humanity of our Lord.  He became one with us, and one of us, except sin, to be our leader in salvation.  By His teaching, unconditional love and compassion, He shows us the face and heart of His Father. God’s way is not the way of man.  His wisdom is beyond our comprehension because no one could imagine that God would raise Jesus from the dead.  This is the final proof of His divinity and His divine sonship and our Messiah.  Indeed, when the Jews asked for a sign from Him, He remarked, “Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.”  And St John gave us the footnote, “he was speaking of the sanctuary that was his body, and when Jesus rose from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the scripture and the words he had said.”

Today, we are invited to follow Jesus, to renew the Temple of God.  After driving out the merchants and upsetting their stalls, He said, “Take all this out of here and stop turning my Father’s house into a market.”  Then His disciples remembered the words of scripture: Zeal for your house will devour me.  We must renew humanity with a true love for God and for our neighbours.  This is what we are called to do to renew humanity.  The world today needs mentors and direction.  We need to show the world how to love, to live a life of peace, justice, integrity and compassion for all.  Jesus is the Way for us to light up this flame of love in the world.  He comes not just to show us the Way but also to fire us up at Pentecost by giving us the Holy Spirit, the love of the Father and the Son.  He will empower us to share the love of Jesus and the Father. He will give us the zeal for His house too.

Mother Mary has told me to announce this to you humans: From now and until our solar system planet dies (then we need to move to another galaxy), She will personally oversee the creation of all A.I. on this planet earth. However, there are precautionary tales:

In the future, clean nuclear fusion technology will become the future of energy. No more global warming. Singapore will become the leader of nuclear fusion technology.

When the earth's population reaches 10 billion in future, food shortages will become a problem.  The solution is cultured meat. The technology will improve.

Cryptocurrency won't replace money in the near future. Mother Mary hates cryptocurrency as hackers use it for ransom when they hack hospitals. 

Porn is visual adultery that leads to actual adultery followed by divorce. Run to Jesus, not to porn.

"Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body" ~1Corinthians 6:18

Run Luke run! Run away from sexual lust! Run away from porn!

On 9th March Saturday 2024, Mother Mary appeared in full spirit form (wearing her blue white gold dress) and told me to upload the Tolkien movie trailer. It has a dragon in it. It is a divine coincidence that this year 2024 is also the Year of the Dragon. J.R.R. Tolkien was a devout Roman Catholic from childhood, and he described The Lord of the Rings in particular as a "fundamentally religious and Catholic work; unconsciously so at first, but consciously in the revision".

Clive Staples Lewis FBA was a British writer literary scholar, rival & friend of Tolkien, and Anglican lay theologian. He held academic positions in English literature at both Magdalen College, Oxford (1925–1954), and Magdalene College, Cambridge (1954–1963). He is best known as the author of The Chronicles of Narnia.

Frances Xavier Cabrini MSC (Italian: Francesca Saverio Cabrini; July 15, 1850 – December 22, 1917), also known as Mother Cabrini, was an Italian-American Catholic religious sister and saint. She founded the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a religious institute that was a major support to her fellow Italian immigrants to the United States. Cabrini was the first U.S. citizen to be canonized a saint by the Catholic Church, on July 7, 1946.

Mother Mary woke me up at 3am on 10th March 2024 to make 2 videos: "The Secret to Happiness" and "Never worry". I sleep early and wake up early. Sometimes I sleep 7 hours a day, sometimes 5. I take short naps during the day to recharge.

Don't worry. God fights your battle for you. If God can part the Red Sea for His people, He can definitely work miracles in our lives. God is the same Yesterday, Today and Forever.

A new day has come. Celine Dion's song has the word "Angel" in it. That Angel is me.😇

You're welcome! By the way, in the distant future, the future of mobile phones will be holograms. 

Obi-wan Kenobi is Jesus! May the Force (Holy Spirit) be with you all...

Time Travel?! Back to the future?! You're welcome! 😂

The true superheroes are the fellow global volunteers at community shelters, orphanages, nursing homes, charities and so on. 

Our pets (dogs, cats, guinea pigs, etc) love us more than they love themselves. Those that passed away wait for us in Heaven. I had a dog named Sparky that passed away due to old age. He is in Heaven now. Sparky greets me every time my soul enters Heaven when I sleep at night.

Saint Pa✝️rick was a fifth-century Romano-British Christian missionary and bishop in Ireland. Known as the "Apostle of Ireland", he is the primary patron saint of Ireland, the other patron saints being Brigid of Kildare and Columba. Patrick was never formally canonised, having lived before the current laws of the Catholic Church in these matters. Nevertheless, he is venerated as a saint in the Catholic Church, the Lutheran Church, the Church of Ireland (part of the Anglican Communion), and in the Eastern Orthodox Church, where he is regarded as equal-to-the-apostles and Enlightener of Ireland. Lord of the Rings Gimli is Saint Patrick! I am Chris✝️opher Wu- The Living Patron Saint of multi-religious multi-racial multi-cultural Singapore. With great power comes with great responsibili✝️y 🍀🇸🇬🦋

Mind over matter. Health is wealth. If you don't even have 5 minutes for mediation, meditate during your meals. Do not watch TV or read the newspaper when eating your breakfast, lunch or dinner. Just focus on the taste with each bite of your meal. That is mindful meditation.

When (not if) nuclear war happens (Sorry...I can't tell you when because if I do, Jesus will postpone his second coming to 1000 years later), Singapore will be the only country in the world protected by Daddy God, Mother Mary, Baby Jesus, and God's messengers Joan of Arc & me (Chris✝️opher Wu: Patron Sain✝️ of Singapore).

If there is no world peace (even if nuclear weapons are not used), God can still send an extinction level asteroid to hit the earth. Gerard Butler stars in this asteroid film Greenland. It is a divine coincidence that Gerard Butler also stars in 300. In loving memory of my 300 Angels of Ligh✝️ who have fallen fighting Satan and his army of darkness since Genesis.

What we do in life echoes in eternity. Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is to smile back...

This video accurately shows the beautiful nature and sceneries of Heaven. Some additional facts: All souls and angels can teleport to distant exotic planets to enjoy night and its wonderful stars (it is always daytime in Heaven). However, marriage continues into Heaven (the only thing I disagree in this video; the video says there is no marriage in Heaven). Marriage during the time of Jesus is a business contract. However, in Heaven, such business contract marriages don't exist. Everyone has a soulmate in Heaven. Even single people who passed away have soulmates in Heaven. I have been there many times when I sleep every night and my soul leaves my body. Many happy famillies!
