7:19
ever the first reading is a reading from
7:22
the book of Exodus the whole Israelite
7:24
Community grumbled against Moses and
7:26
Aaron the Israelites said to them with
7:30
that we had died at the Lord's hand in
7:32
the land of Egypt as we sat by our flesh
7:34
pots and ate our fill of bread but you
7:37
had to lead us into this desert to make
7:39
the whole Community die of famine then
7:42
the Lord said to Moses I will now rain
7:45
down bread he bread from heaven for you
7:48
each day the people are to go out and
7:50
gather their daily portion thus will I
7:53
test them to see whether they follow my
7:55
instructions or not I have heard the
7:57
grumbling of the Israelites tell them in
8:01
the e in the evening Quail came up and
8:04
covered the camp in the morning a DW lay
8:06
all about the camp and when the Dew
8:09
evaporated there on the surface of the
8:11
desert were fine lights asked one
8:13
another what is this for they did not
8:15
know what it was but Moses said to them
8:19
this is the bread that the Lord has
8:20
given bread from Heaven what we have
8:23
heard and know and what our fathers have
8:25
declared to us we will declare to the
8:27
generation to come the Glorious Deeds of
8:29
the Lord and his strength and and the
8:32
Wonders that he wrought the lord gave
8:35
them bread from Heaven he commanded the
8:38
skies above and opened the doors of
8:40
Heaven he rained Mana upon them for food
8:44
and gave them Heavenly bread the lord
8:47
gave them bread from
8:48
Heaven man ate the bread of angels food
8:51
he sent them in abundance and he brought
8:54
them to this Holy Land to the mountains
8:56
his right hand had won the Lord gave
8:59
them bread from
9:02
Heaven a reading from the letter of St
9:04
Paul to the Ephesians brothers and
9:06
sisters I declare and testify in the
9:09
Lord that you must no longer live as the
9:11
Gentiles do in the futility of their
9:13
minds that is not how Christ how you
9:16
learned Christ assuming that you have
9:19
heard of him and were taught in him as
9:22
truth is in Jesus that you should put
9:24
away the old self of your former way of
9:26
life corrupted through deceitful desire
9:29
desires and be renewed in the spirit of
9:31
your minds and put on the new self
9:34
created in
9:38
God's
9:41
hallelujah

9:58
Gospel According to St John glory to you
10:01
oh Lord when the crowd saw that neither
10:03
Jesus nor his disci see they said to him
10:06
Rabbi when did you get here Jesus
10:09
answered them and said amen amen I say
10:12
to you you were looking for me not
10:14
because you saw signs but because you
10:17
ate the Loaves and were filled do not
10:20
work for food that father God has set
10:23
his seal and so they said to him what
10:25
can we do to accomplish The Works of God
10:28
Jesus Jesus answered and that we may see
10:31
and believe in you what can you do our
10:34
ancestors ate Mana in the desert as it
10:36
is written he gave them bread from
10:38
Heaven my father gives you the true
10:40
bread from heaven for the bread of God
10:43
is that which comes down from heaven and
10:45
gives life to the world and so they said
10:47
to him sir give us this bread always and
10:51
Jesus said to them I am the bread of
10:53
life whoever comes to me will never
10:56
hunger and whoever believes in me will
10:59
never thirst the gospel of the Lord
11:03

town we're very very happy to have you
11:13
with us uh we do uh have benediction
11:15
after Mass today uh which means that
11:17

11:19
of the Most Blessed sa my sister in
11:20
Oklahoma I'll be gone for about two days
11:23
but we will not have mass on Tuesday
11:25
Wednesday or Thursday morning we will
11:28
have mass as usual Friday and then
11:30
through next weekend uh but daily masses
11:32
this week will be truncated that
11:33
information is in the bulletin I hope
11:35
you'll grab one and follow along uh in
11:37
the course of the
11:39
week so as Catholic
11:42
Christians we believe and we understand
11:46
God would be able to hand us a kind of
11:48
schematic of some sort and say here is
11:51
the complete revelation of me and we
11:55
would then be able to absorb that and
11:57
say aha this is what what we need to do
12:00
this is what I need in order to go to
12:03
heaven God
12:05
does give us a full perfect revelation
12:09
of himself in the person of Jesus Christ
12:13
able to receive that whole Revelation at
12:16
one moment this is why God is stuck
12:19
ultimately all through Christian history
12:22
all through Jewish history revealing
12:24
himself in all sorts of different ways
12:28
in hopes that human Humanity us or in
12:32
mystical visions of saints we are
12:34
limited in the way in which we wisdom
12:37
and the way at which becomes
12:39
understanding way that receive them in
12:41
different I would treat a child little
12:44
child treatment but I'm going to you're
12:46
going to be fine the cat doesn't get
12:48
every second of it same thing with the
12:50
child right you can't explain to the
12:53
child something instead you have to run
12:55
scream yell hold squirt water at do all
12:58
kinds of different decisions and even
13:00
then going on any more than the cat
13:02
pieces together to God reveals himself
13:06
in
13:07
scripture but there's a lot of different
13:10
kind of things happening in scripture
13:12
there's poetry there's Nally relate of
13:15
different things happening with
13:16
preaching failing a little bit to lead
13:19
the Christian of what it means to all of
13:22
those things this whole sermon so far is
13:25
basically something that we all
13:26
hopefully understand and grasp but what
13:29
Jesus brings today all of these
13:32
intellectual
13:33
necessary right that needs to experience
13:37
the direct God made Adam and Eve he gave
13:40
each of them a physical reality a
13:43
physical connection to him for Adam that
13:46
was tilling the Earth for Eve it was
13:48
just a physical repercussion over and
13:51
over again these phys we see God giving
13:54
Mana in the desert the idea of physic
13:58
God wants to give them as a promise he
13:59
wants to give etc etc etc and that is
14:03
3,000 years later because both of those
14:05
people believe within them a physical
14:09
somewhere else I mean why is that
14:10
happening why is this such a problem
14:12
I'll buy you a plot of land in Mexico
14:14
and everybody can stop fighting and we
14:16
go no no this physical land component
14:20
means everything and the bread will
14:24
endure now are many modern Christians
14:26
read that and say ah well that just
14:28
means some kind of spiritual thing but
14:30
Jesus clearly give you food that will
14:33
pass away work for the f I am the bread
14:36
of other ways in which God reveals
14:38
himself God who reveals himself through
14:40
scripture God who reveals himself
14:42
through human nature God who reveals
14:44
himself through our human reason God who
14:46
reveals himself and on top of all of and
14:48
so just as last week to communicate what
14:51
it I gave and so we have today this
14:53
incredibly matters now we call that
14:56
physical expression the Holy Eucharist
14:59
the body blood soul and Divinity of
15:01
Jesus in the formity that they
15:04
signif now again this can seem high
15:07
futin understand to us and whether the
15:11
full but physic light available from the
15:13
nice LED fixtures at the end of mass
15:15
today be expression continue a little
15:17
bit more of this next week of our Human
15:19
Experience there is not any little part
15:22
of what God has created that doesn't
15:24
have his fingerprint on it and therefore
15:26
our faith has to God we can't just take
15:30
one little piece and be done we have to
15:32
have this entire that will persist and
15:36
that's what we come to
15:46
amen of all things visible and invisible
15:50
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ the
15:53

15:56
