Today a the wednesday audience the Pope Spoke about Divine Authority.
He mentioned that Divien Authority is not a power of nature but rather a power that creates, apower that descends into humanity, a power that heals the world conquered by sin.
This power is not a power that dominates, possesses or is set on success rather it is a humble power of service.
The authority of God which is sovereign is a servant, it is at the service of the free will of man to accept or deny. It is in this that we encounter love.
Think about the gospels. How often the scribes and pharisees reject the divine authority of Christ. Even in today's gospel, Jesus the home town boy, is rejected by his fellow towns folk.
they took offense to him, the gospel relates to us.
Even in this, the divien authority reveals itself as a humble servant.
How awesome is that.
