Dedication of the Lateran Basilica

Christ's body of earth


John 2:13-22

As we celebrate the feast of a dedication of Church, the Basilica of St. John Lateran, which is the seat of Pope, we are reminded of the following:

1. the Church, in reference to Ezekiel 47:1-2,8-9,12, our first reading, is the source of life and grace for humanity.

2. the temple is the very body of Jesus Christ, our source of life and salvation.

3. the temple resides in us as the Lord's living Church on earth.

The physical church mirrors the living Church which is us, the Body of Christ.
