Alter Christus

John 3:31-36


Eventually, the goal of ever Eucharist is to make us "Alter Christus" or another Christ.  This can only be attained if we desire to be close to Christ and follow his will unreservedly rather than our own.  This is the conviction of Peter, "Better to follow God rather than man."

We need to be fully convinced why God's will is better than ours.  It brings about social order.  God's will is for the common good.  It brings about development.  But most of all, it causes our salvation when we adhere to God's will unlike our first parents who disobeyed God.  Jesus leads us to the new creation of the Father.
