Nice Jesus Christ photos

A few nice jesus christ images I found:


Contemplating the Incarnate Word

"The Child at Bethlehem is a profound image of God’s love for us; he entrusts his Son to humanity, who humbles himself to become as vulnerable as a human baby. O great mystery! But the wonder of Christmas is excelled by the mystery of the Eucharist. Because Christ loves and trusts us so much that he humbles himself, and acting through his priest, he becomes utterly vulnerable; he becomes truly present as our real food, and real drink under the form of Bread and Wine. O marvellous sacrament! Through the Blessed Sacrament, Christ entrusts himself to us, and he is united to our flesh, to our humanity. In this way, Christ is eminently Emmanuel – God-with-us – because the Word became flesh and dwelt among us… Not just in this church in the tabernacle, but in us, in the tabernacle of our very bodies."


The rest of my sermon for Christmas day can be read here.

"O God, who on this day

revealed your Only Begotten Son to the nations

by the guidance of a star,

grant in your mercy, that we, who know you already by faith,

may be brought to behold the beauty of your sublime glory.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen."


– Collect for the feast of the Epiphany which is on 6 January.


Today is the Feast of the Epiphany, and my sermon for today can be read here.
