THE RISEN LORD'S AUTHORITY | The Word Exposed with Cardinal Tagle (May 29, 2022) Subscribe to JesComTV http://bit.ly/3qN0biC #TheWordExposed #CardinalTagle #Easter #AscensionSunday We are on the Seventh Sunday of Easter, which is also celebrated as the feast of the Ascension of the Lord in some parts of the world. In the Gospel according to Luke, the Risen Lord explains once again to his disciples: As written, the Christ would suffer and rise from the dead after three days; and in his name, repentance for the forgiveness of sins would be preached. He then prepares them for what is to come: They need to stay in the city until “the promise of [his] Father” arrives that will clothe them with power from on high. After blessing his disciples, the Risen Lord is “taken up to heaven.” What is the effect on the disciples? Filled “with great joy,” they continually praise God. Friends, we are almost through with the Easter season. What is the effect of this season on you? We hope it would be one of joy, one that inspires us to continuously praise God. ______________ The Word Exposed with Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples reflects on Sunday's Mass readings each week.
