Motto: Let’s get niggers-free, … !להרוס את כיפת הסלע , and put chuck-the-clown in a psychiatric ward, is already on suicide watch… Tuez les negres, rendez-vous service… Dico per loro, non per me!…
Today, on the Third Sunday of the Great Lent, with ever greater humility in the Holy Spirit, a sine-qua-non condition of my poor mind, already damaged and attacked by the fury of suicide attacks of the apes, of all kind, led by the genuine britindians apes, i would try to briefly approach, with simple words, and say something about the Holy Cross, to Which is dedicated this Sunday of the Great Lent.
The Holy Cross was anticipated in the Old Testament, as Instrument of salvation of the human race, when the jews were bitten in the desert by lethal poisonous snakes. A Cross was made, with a bronze snake wrapped around the Cross, and every time the jews were bitten by the poisonous snakes in the desert, the Cross with the bronze snake wrapped around was elevated, and the jews only looking at the Cross, the bronze snake symbolizing Jesus Christ, Who afterwards was crucified on the Holy Cross, were immediately healed of the bites of the poisonous snakes.
Then when the jews were battling the pagans, up on a hill, the Holy Prophet Moses was making with his arms opened the sign of the Cross, and the jews were defeating their enemies, and many times, the arms of Holy Moses, the God-seer, were held opened by 2 other faithful, and the jews were always crushing their enemies in the battle.
But whenever the Holy Prophet Moses was exhausted, and had to rest his arms for a short while, leaving them down, the jews were being defeated in their battle against the pagans.
Then is a true story which says that the tree from which after years was crafted the Holy Cross, on Which Jesus Christ was crucified, was watered every day, with a cup of water, by somebody who was inspired to do so, by a Holy Angel of God, and was doing so, by walking every day a long distance, from the time the tree was planted, and was very young, to the time the tree grew big…
When Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was forced to carry the Cross on Which was crucified, up to the Golgotha Hill, for many stops, it was Saint Symeon the Cyrene who actually carried for Him the Holy Cross, as Jesus Christ fell under the heavy burden and weight of the Cross…
The Holy Cross has become, after the Crucifixion, death and Holy Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Instrument with Which the demons and death are being defeated, through the life giving death of Jesus Christ. From being the most shameful way of execution in those times, the Cross has become afterwards the Symbol of triumph over death, and over the spiritual death.
Saint Constantine the Great saw in a vision, in the sky, before going to battle his pagan brother-in-law, a massive Cross with the arms equal between them, and a voice telling him … ‘Under this Sign you will win!’ Then Saint Constantine the Great has crafted on the flags of his army, the Sign of the Cross, and has defeated his enemy.
Then the mother of Saint Constantine the Great, the Holy Empress Helen, with holy zeal, has found the Holy Cross on Which was crucified Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Together with Saint Macarius, Bishop of Jerusalem at that time, Santa Helen has uncovered the 3 Crosses on the Golgotha Hill, where Jesus Christ was crucified, between the 2 robbers, the good Thief, Saint Dismas, and the unrepentant and the non-believer thief. And in order to discover which was the Holy Cross, on Which Jesus Christ was crucified, Santa Helen and Saint Macarius have brought an old woman, suffering of a disease with no cure, probably a skin disease, and immediately after the old woman was touched by the Holy Cross on Which Jesus Christ was crucified, the old woman was immediately healed.
Jesus Christ Himself has revealed as a way of complete renouncing of somebody, of everything and everybody, to take upon himself or herself, of the Cross, as an ultimate and irrevocable path to follow Jesus Christ, and become His disciple, when He said … ‘Whoever wants to follow Me, to completely renounce himself (herself), to take upon his/her Cross, and then can follow Me!…’
The Cross is the ultimate symbol of personal sacrifice and kenosis, or emptying out of his or her personal selfishness, without which nobody can walk in the footsteps of Jesus Christ. Or again, like Jesus Christ said … ‘Whoever will not hate his mother, his father, his brother or even his/her own soul, is not worthy of Me!…’
Sounds very radical, but is not, this is how Jesus Christ Himself has accepted the ultimate sacrifice of death, on the Holy Cross, to save from the death of hell, His Creation, and gave His holy soul, in the Hands of His Father, God the Mind and Father, saying on the last breath … ‘To Thee, Father, I entrust My soul!’
So help us, we the free world, Holy Trinity the Creator Almighty !!!…
