On this the feast of Corpus Christi
… I need be fair to all Pastors, you do not need to have “formal adoration”, i.e.
Jesus in a Monstrance on the Altar … but you should be promoting prayer before
the Tabernacle.. (Same Jesus) …
I have run across Catholics
who bitch and complain their Pastors do not have formal adoration… as if Jesus
magically becomes “greater” in a Monstrance than he is in the Tabernacle … hmm
let me ponder that philosophically, spiritually, metaphysically … let me even
throw in “scientific thought” … such as Schrodinger's cat (is Jesus alive in the Monstrance and
dead in the Tabernacle???) … Let me even think particle entanglement… is
the essence (particles) of the second person of the Blessed Trinity greater in
the Monstrance than the Tabernacle???
Maybe I should think … Occam's razor the problem-solving principle that states
"entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily". So is Jesus more
powerful in the Monstrance and not as powerful in the Tabernacle …
Are these Catholics who think
they can only “adore” Jesus Christ’s True presence in the Eucharist, when He is
on the altar in a Monstrance, really saying there is a “ greater and lesser”
Jesus Christ (Monstrance greater … Tabernacle lesser) … Not true … by Jesus’
own words, “I Am”… yep the great “I Am”
can be found 24/7 in the Tabernacle and occasional in a Monstrance … but why
wait for the scheduled adoration time at your church, go now avoid the rush …
spend time with Jesus Christ before the Tabernacle …
