“For from the rising of the sun, even to its setting, my name is great among nations; And everywhere they bring sacrifice to my name, and a pure offering…” (Malachi 1:11)
Hindi na daw kailangan ng Misa, kasi nagsakripisyo na si Hesus. “Minsan lamang naghandog si Jesus, at ito’y magpakailanman, nang ihandog niya ang kanyang sarili.” (Hebreo 7:27)
Ang Misa daw ay paulit-ulit na pagpako kay Hesus sa krus.
Inuulit-ulit daw ng Simbahang Katoliko na ipako sa Krus si Hesus.
Inuulit-ulit nga ba?
“The sacrifice of Christ and the sacrifice of the Eucharist ARE ONE SINGLE SACRIFICE: “The victim is ONE and THE SAME: the same now offers through the ministry of priests, who then offered himself on the cross; ONLY THE MANNER OF OFFERING IS DIFFERENT.” “In this divine sacrifice which is celebrated in the Mass, the same Christ who offered himself once in a bloody manner on the altar of the cross is contained and is offered in an unbloody manner.” (Catechism of the Catholic Church #1367)
Sa unang tingin mukhang inuulit-ulit nga. Pero kung ibabase natin sa propesiya sa Malachi 1:11, [“For from the RISING OF THE SUN, even to ITS SETTING, my name is great among nations; and EVERYWHERE they bring SACRIFICE to my name, and a PURE OFFERING; for great is my name among the nations, says the Lord of hosts.”] e hindi ito inuulit-ulit.
Bakit?
Ang sabi EVERYWHERE, ibig sabihin sa lahat ng dako.
They bring SACRIFICE, isa lang. Hindi sacrificeS.
And a PURE OFFERING, isa lang din. Hindi rin offeringS.
Ano pa bang magiging mas PURE na OFFERING kesa sa ginawang SACRIFICE ng Panginoong Hesus sa Krus ng Kalbaryo?
Ang propesiya sa Malachi 1:11 ay tumutukoy sa Eternal Sacrifice ng Panginoong Hesus na naganap noong 33 A.D.
At ang Misa ay ang pareho ring Eternal Sacrifice ng Panginoong Hesus na pumpasok sa Time and Space.
Space (EVERYWHERE) – dito, doon, diyan, sa America, sa Pilipinas, sa Jerusalem, sa Roma etc.
Time (RISING AND SETTING OF THE SUN) – kahapon, ngayon, bukas, kanina, kagabai etc.
Ang Misa ay hindi pag-uulit ng Sakripisyo. Ito ay ang “magpakailanmang paghahandog ni Jesus ng kanyang sarili”(Heb.7:27) na nagiging present ulit (representation) sa oras ng consecration ng bread and wine.
Kaya ang sabi sa CCC #1367, “The sacrifice of Christ and the sacrifice of the Eucharist ARE ONE SINGLE SACRIFICE”.
Sa bawat Misa, para tayong nag-time machine. Ibinabalik tayo nito sa panahon ng pagpako sa Panginoong Hesus sa Krus ng Kalbaryo at kasabay nito ang pagdadala sa atin sa hinaharap sa Pananambahan sa Langit (Pahayag 4) at sa Hapag ng Panginoon (Mateo 8:11), at doon kasalo natin ang Panginoon (Pahayag 3:20).
KUNG MAHAL MO SI JESUS AT GUSTO MO SIYANG MAKASAMA NG BUONG BUO, BODY AND BLOOD, SOUL AND DIVINITY…
TATANGGIHAN MO PA BA ANG NAPAKAGANDANG BIYAYANG ITO? (Tignan mo ‘to)

Share ko lang ito nakuha ko kay Ross Earl Hoffman sa fb regarding the Sacrifice of the Eucharist:
From Jesus onward, the first Christians spoke of the covenant with flesh-and-blood realism. Implicitly contrasting the New Covenant with the old, Jesus said, at His next-to-last Passover, “It was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven; My Father gives you the true bread from heaven…I am the bread of life…If any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is My flesh” (Jn 6:32, 35, 51). This pointed forward to the covenant meal Jesus would serve at His final Passover. St. Paul reports that, at that meal, Jesus commanded His disciples to “Do this”—to mark the covenant in the same way He had–“in remembrance of Me” 1 Cor 11:25). The Greek word that is translated here is “remembrance” carries much stronger connotations in ancient Hebrew culture. Given their original force, Paul’s words evoke a “re-calling”–not only remembering but re-actualizing, re-presenting. This meal is unmistakably the Real Presence of Jesus Christ: Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. St. Paul elsewhere speaks of the covenant meal with the same vivid realism. “The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?”(1 Cor 10:16). “Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord….Any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgement upon himself”(1 Cor 11:27,29). In this New Covenant meal, we step beyond the shadows of metaphor into the very image and reality of God’s glory. Our kinship with God is so real that His very blood courses through our bodies. We assimilate His flesh into our own. In the New Covenant meal, the Family of God eats the Body of Christ and so becomes the Body of Christ. This is how God willed us to became sons and daughters in the one eternal Son. “The children share in flesh and blood” (Heb 2:14), “conformed to the image of His Son”(Rom 8:29). By grace we are God’s image and likeness, His blood kin. (Dr. Scott Hahn, First Comes Love).
Salamat sa pagbabahagi!
