Living with the Wrong Prepositions
2021 July 25th Streaming
Every word written by Paul was very carefully chosen; in fact, there is a significant spiritual revelation in even the smallest prepositions that Paul chooses to use. Prepositions are a class of words that are used to express spatial (positional), temporal (time), or directional relationships. Thus we have a pre-position or a word that establishes the relationship between a noun or a pronoun and its place, position, time, or method. Paul often uses the preposition ‘to’, but we blow right through it and never give it a second thought. Within that smallest of words lies the revelation of God’s greatest Mystery – the Mystery of sonship. But in spite of what Paul has clearly written, the Church continues to live the wrong prepositions.
