A Igreja do Leste, se não é a mais antiga de todas, certamente é bem mais antiga do que a Igreja Católica. Além disso, era a mais poderosa, a que deu mais "trabalho" para os que viriam a ser os fundadores da Igreja Católica. Católica significa universal, ou seja, qualquer outra religião passou a ser, com maior ou menor influência, "nossa". Observe que o Senhor também passou a ser, explicitamente, "Nosso Senhor". Junto com "amém", NSJC (Nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo) é uma das expressões mais repetidas durante a missa.
The Church of the East, if not the oldest of all, certainly is much older than the Catholic Church. Besides, it was then the most powerful, the one that challenged the would-be Catholic Church most. Catholic means universal, that is, any other religion, being more or less influential, became "ours". Notice that Lord also became explicitly "Our Lord". Along with amem, OLJC - Our Lord Jesus Christ - is one of the expressions most repeated in the Mass.
Much of the discourse all around is power-oriented. Our texts, rather, will be appreciated by those brave enough to leave the good life of obedience in order to grow and take risks for the benefit of a multitude of others. Welcome! PORTUGUÊS acesse "apresentação do blog" abaixo
