The meaning of Christ
I love Wendover
In the ancient Greek world, four causes were recognised - end, agent, matter and form. So, the end of marmalade was to be spread upon toast, the agent was the knife which cut the oranges, the matter was the oranges and the form was the result. In the middle ages two more causes were recognised: God’s creative power and exemplary causation. So St Richard of Chichester desired “to follow these more nearly”. Similar today is the idea of constitutive meaning, one’s horizon, what gives life meaning. Lent and Eastertide are there for us to appropriate the constitutive meaning of Christ. May we be helped through difficulties. May we come to the glory of the resurrection. Canon Timothy Russ, Parish Priest, St Anne’s
