Is he not perfectly crowned, this King? Are not the thorns more lovely than gems or roses? And the blood and pain more transcendent than Gold of Epiphany? [i] The Wounds on his disrobed body can never heal in this world – openly suffering Mystical Members – while Division’s veil is torn, [ii] for “The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand …” [iii] Then, over the Boundary he carried his Scars, we find their mirror, in Eternity. Oh, greet me at Heaven’s door, you Least [iv] and now transfigured, greet me, once-Idiot, Blind or Lame – And Sinner, – forgiven for Not Knowing, – [v] open for me the gate, show me His hands! (2010s) [i] Matthew 2:11 – “On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.” [ii] Isaiah 25:7-8 – “On this mountain he will destroy the veil that veils all peoples, the web that is woven over all nations. He will destroy Death forever.” . [iii] Matthew 4:17 – “From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, ‘Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.’ ” [iv] Matthew 19: 30, Jesus says – “But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.” [v] Luke 23:34 – Jesus dying on the Cross: “Then Jesus said, ‘Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.’ ” Comments are closed.
