33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time 18th November: Focus: The Son of Man will gather his elect from the four winds. – The sacrifice of Jesus is perfect & complete, atoning for our sins, & he will one day come again to gather to his side all of us who have followed him. In doing this, he will judge between the living – those who have remained faithful to his commandments - & the dead: those who live lives not asdisciples. Christ’s judgment, then, simply reflects our status, it doesn’t impose it. God has chosen us for his own – we are the elect. Let us respond by choosing it for ourselves, as well.
