Summary

In this reading, we learn that all sinners are the authors of Christ’s Passion. We do not blame the Jews for the Crucifixion of Jesus as we know that it is our own sins that caused his Passion and death. Fr. Mike tells us that the Jews are not collectively responsible for Jesus’ death, and they should not be spoken of as rejected or cursed. We’re reminded that when we choose sin and deny Christ by our deeds, we crucify him anew in our hearts. Today’s reading are Catechism paragraphs 595-598.

0:00.0	Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz and you're listening to The Catechism in a Year Podcast,
0:09.4	where we encounter God's plan to share goodness for us, revealed in Scripture and passed
0:13.0	down through the tradition of the Catholic faith. The Catechism in a Year is brought to
0:16.4	by Ascension. In 365 days, we'll read through the Catechism of the Catholic Church discovering
0:20.9	our identity in God's family as we journey together toward our Heavenly Home. It is
0:24.4	day 85, when you paragraphs 595-598 as always, I'm using the Ascension edition of the Catechism,
0:30.0	which includes the foundations of faith approach, but you can follow along with any recent
0:33.2	version of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. You can also download your own Catechism

0:46.1	app to receive daily updates. Indi-Lin notifications yesterday. Well, we talked about it's day 85
0:51.9	yesterday. Yesterday we talked about how Jesus fulfills the temple. We talked about how Jesus
0:58.4	had recognized that there's a scandal that Christ offers in the fact that he is who he says he is.
1:04.8	And that not only did he claim to be the Messiah, he claimed equality with God himself. And because
1:12.7	of this, Jesus becomes the crux, right? He becomes the turning point of history, not merely because
1:19.6	he claimed to be God, because he demonstrated that he actually is God. And of course,
1:24.7	that last sentence, well, we had the in brief, the nuggets at the end of this, but we also had
1:28.4	that last sentence of paragraph 591 that said, the members of the Sanhedrin were thus acting at
1:33.0	the same time out of ignorance and the hardness of their unbelief. And the recognition, of course,
1:38.2	is that all of us, all of us are in that same boat. I mentioned that because today we're taking
1:43.2	the next step. Paragraph 2, Jesus died crucified. We're going to look at the trial of Jesus a little
