Can you explain ?









NO FAITH


The GOSPELS show: For the Apostles, the disciples, for the believers
(until today): JESUS (Mk 6.1-6)   is a special phaenomenon, sure an Epiphany.
Everybody is asking: "From where did the man get all this?"
(wisdom, courage, clear vocation, sensitive responsibility, strong bearing,
strange behaviour, miracle-strength, relationship-capacity, empathy,
healing power, faith etc... etc... )


Is there any explication for the phaenomenon "JESUS" ?
The mk JESUS knows:
a) It's not the family and the blood-line
(He is only the carpenter, only the son of Mary; the brothers (4) and the sisters
we know as normal people... nothing special...)
b) It's not the image or the story of the home-town Nazareth / Bethlehem
(He is not from Jerusalem)
but it seems for the mk JESUS,
there is a clear new explication of this phaenomenon:
look at Nazareth: where there is no faith
                            there is no miracles, no wisdom, no resurrection...

You see this every day: where there is no faith in each other, no faithful
relationship: there is no healing, no liberating unity, no mutual love...
The great Q:  Why was there no faith - in Nazareth ?
                       Why is here + now no faith - in my own village, family, Parish ???
