The way of the Cross: The *only* way into the Kingdom of Heaven. Sun after Exaltation of the Cross.
In today’s gospel reading, after the Lord sorts us to take up our cross and follow him and lose our life in order to save it, immediately he makes this peculiar premise:” there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.” This associates the kingdom of heaven with the cross. We learn about how to obtain the Kingdom of Heaven through the cross by following the instructions of the epistle to the Galatians, read today, and also our Lord’s admonition to take up the cross. The gospel gives the command, and the epistle shows us how to carry it out. Galatians 2:16-20 Mark 8:34-9:1
