Easter message from Bishop Donald J. Hying of Madison
“But I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.” (John 16: 22). This promise of Jesus in His farewell discourse before His Passion and death is a remarkable moment of hope for the apostles and indeed for all of us. Yes, Jesus will suffer horrifying crucifixion and an early death. Yes, His friends will be shattered by their overwhelming loss and grief. But against all human expectation, the Lord rises from the grave to live forever, conquering the seemingly intractable power of sin and death for all people of all time. This epic victory of the Son over the power of the Evil One is the source and center of our Easter faith.
Mensaje de Pascua del Obispo Donald J. Hying de Madison
“Pero yo los volveré a ver, y sus corazones se regocijarán, y nadie les quitará su gozo” (Juan 16, 22). Esta promesa de Jesús en su discurso de despedida antes de Su Pasión y muerte es un momento notable de esperanza para los apóstoles y, de hecho, para todos nosotros. Sí, Jesús sufrirá una horrible crucifixión y una muerte prematura. Sí, Sus amigos serán destrozados por su abrumadora pérdida y su dolor. Pero contra toda expectativa humana, el Señor se levanta de la tumba para vivir para siempre, conquistando el poder aparentemente intratable del pecado y la muerte para todas las personas de todos los tiempos. Esta victoria épica del Hijo sobre el poder del Maligno es la fuente y el centro de nuestra fe pascual.
