No Escape

As we prepare for the end of the Liturgical Year and the Beginning of the New, with the First Sunday of Advent on December 2, the words of Jesus leave no doubt, that he will be coming, no one will escape, and that, as Shakespeare wrote, "the readiness is all."  The author of the second letter of Saint John warned the people of his time (and ours) that "many deceivers have gone out inot the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh.: (2 Jn: 7)  ).  The deceivers of our day try to melt down the message of Jesus and the very person of Jesus, the Son of God.  Jesus warns them and us that  we must be ready, that is, practitioners of his Gospel.  Be ready at all times, for we know not when he will come.
