12th Sunday, Yr C – A Different Messiah

June 14, 2010

Download 12th Sunday Yr C

Reflection Question 5; It is strange that Jesus rebukes Peter for his answer. Jesus wants them to be silent before they truly understand what type of messiah / Christ Jesus is. It will not be the military glory of public expectation but a suffering messiah who is rejected and killed before rising again. This requires a completely new mind-set for Jewish people and Jesus’ followers. It is shameful for God to suffer and die. It is the obstacle that Jews cannot overcome. Jesus therefore cannot be the Messiah. What do you think?
