All things are for the Lord, because all things come from Him. No thing can approach the Lord that is not of the Lord, for it does not exist. Therefore, anything that would seek to come against the Lord is doomed by the very essence of its creation. To deny that the Lord is Almighty God and Creator of all that lives, is to embrace Unlife, which is an impossibility, in that life comes before death. To be born into life is not to be raised from the dead. But we are all dead from our mother’s womb. Dead as being separated from the life that God created us to live. But by the turning away from God by Adam in disobedience, Adam chose a death he did not understand. He chose to eat of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and forfeited the right to eat from the Tree of Life. Death came to be known as the end of natural life. That twisted to be called a triumph as by death the living conquered the living. Death has life because of life. Yet without life, death is not. So in its fury, death wars against life....and fails. For it cannot prevail, death does not conquer life. Life conquers death. So death, in its twisted thinking, turned against God Himself. Christ was crucified and died, but did He? Or was it just the body of death, the one separated from God that died and was buried? But He rose in glorious form! The natural body never to be found. The form of a man yet not of this world. Wounded but alive, seen, walking thru walls, eating, drinking and talking. Killed but not dead. Alive! Ascending into Heaven to sit at the right Hand of God. To intercede day and night in regards to His saints. The flock of The Shepherd.
Arise O Holy Church! Sing songs of rejoicing O Beautiful Bride of Christ! Enter into His courts with thanksgiving, His gate with praise, for no weapon formed against you shall prosper, and The King of Glory will come in. Death, where is your victory? Where is your sting? You are come to nought for you are of nought.
