Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE LORD'S PRAYER AND THE SEVEN LAST WORDS During the 1930s and '40s, Fulton Sheen was the featured speaker on The Catholic Hour radio broadcast, and millions of listeners heard his radio addresses each week. His topics ranged from politics and the economy to philosophy and man's eternal pursuit of happiness. Possessing a burning zeal to dispel the myths about Our Lord and His Church, Sheen gave a series of powerful presentations on Christ's Passion and His seven last words from the Cross. As a Scripture scholar, Archbishop Sheen knew full well the power contained in preaching Christ crucified. With St. Paul, he could say, "For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified" (1 Cor. 2:2). During his last recorded Good Friday address in 1979, Archbishop Sheen spoke of having given this type of reflection on the subject of Christ's seven last words from the Cross "for the fifty-eighth consecutive time." Whether from the young priest in Peoria, Illinois, the university professor in Washington, D.C., or the bishop in New York, Sheen's messages were sure to make an indelible mark on his listeners. Given their importance and the impact they had on society, it seemed appropriate to reintroduce a number of these reflections from 1933 and 1935 on the Seven Last Words and The Lord's Prayer. Fulton Sheen wrote: Our Lord is the only King who ever stumbled to His throne. But that was because He is God, and God reveals His Power through the weakness of a crucifixion and His Wisdom through the foolishness of a cross. What message will the King deliver from His unkingly throne? Last words are always important but particularly the last words of Him Who gave His Life for the redemption of many! It will be recalled that one day, the Apostles approached Him saying: "Lord, teach us to pray." He answered their request by giving them the perfect prayer: the Our Father. Now the time comes for Him to say His own "Our Father." As there were seven petitions in the "Our Father" He taught us, so there are seven petitions in His own last prayer. They are known as the Seven Last Words. We shall meditate conjointly on our "Our Father," and His "Our Father." Our Father Who art in heaven. / Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. Hallowed be Thy Name. / Amen, I say to thee, this day thou shalt be with me in paradise. Thy Kingdom Come. / Woman, behold thy son. Thy Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. / My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me? Give us this day our daily bread. / I thirst. Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. / It is consummated. Deliver us from all evil. Amen. / Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit. The Lord's Prayer and the Seven Last Words have been referred to as "Two Bridges Connecting Heaven and Earth". In the pages that will follow, Archbishop Sheen will help us to understand this in a more deep and meaningful way.

Download or read book Seven Last Words written by Timothy Radcliffe and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2005-03-04 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seven Words from the Cross are the focus of Christian meditation through the ages. Set to music by Haydn, they epitomise the depth of Jesus's human expereience and thus speak most profoundly to the human condition. Each meditation is illustrated with a picture of Christ on the Cross. Many are old masters;some more modern. The object is to lead the reader deeply into prayer and contemplation. But there is nothing fusty about Radcliffe's text. Whatever he writes is a breath of fresh air and these meditations are modern and contemporary in their reference. There are also many autobiographical touches which make these meditations more personal. This is perfect Lent reading by a spiritual master and one of the few Christian prophets in our time.

Book excerpt: Praying "The Seven Last Words" is a deeply rooted devotional practice for Catholics during Lent and Holy Week. Meditating on the dying words of Our Lord during the agony of his crucifixion has enabled believers to both enter into his suffering and to find personal meaning in it, regardless of the time or circumstances in which they live. This book presents thoughtful meditations on each of Christ's sayings from the cross, followed by questions for further reflection and a simple heartfelt prayer. Father Billy, an experienced spiritual director, shows how Jesus' final testament can give you the courage to face your trials, to embrace the inevitability of your own death, and to be filled with the hope and promise of plentiful redemption. He teaches that being fully human, both in life and in death, requires a personal encounter with Jesus that invites him to dwell in your heart. View sample pages. "Paperback"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enjoy nine (9) of Fulton J. Sheen's most treasured books on the Seven Last Words brought together into this one special collection. During the 1930s and '40s, Fulton Sheen was the featured speaker on The Catholic Hour radio broadcast, and millions of listeners heard his radio addresses each week. His topics ranged from politics and the economy to philosophy and man's eternal pursuit of happiness. Possessing a burning zeal to dispel the myths about Our Lord and His Church, Sheen gave a series of powerful presentations on Christ's Passion and His seven last words from the Cross. As a Scripture scholar, Archbishop Sheen knew full well the power contained in preaching Christ crucified. With St. Paul, he could say, "For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified" (1 Cor. 2:2). During his last recorded Good Friday address in 1979, Archbishop Sheen spoke of having given this type of reflection on the subject of Christ's seven last words from the cross "for the fifty-eighth consecutive time." Whether from the young priest in Peoria, Illinois, the university professor in Washington, D.C., or the bishop in New York, Sheen's messages were sure to make an indelible mark on his listeners. Given their importance and the impact they had on society, it seemed appropriate to bring together in this anthology some of Archbishop Sheen's meditations on the Seven Last Words Our Blessed Lord spoke from the Cross on Calvary. The meditations contained in this book are taken from several books and articles written by Sheen between 1933 and 1945. The Seven Last Words. (New York: Century, 1933) The Seven Last Words and the Our Father. (Huntington, Indiana: Our Sunday Visitor 1935) Calvary and the Mass. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons,1936) The Cross and the Beatitudes. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons,1937) The Rainbow of Sorrow. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1938) Victory over Vice. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1939) The Seven Virtues. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1940) Seven Words to the Cross. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1944) Seven Words of Jesus and Mary. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons,1945) These mediations have been selected to provide nine unique reflections for study and meditation on the Seven Last Words. First Meditation - A reflection on the words spoken by Christ from the Cross. Second Meditation - A reflection on a passage from the Lord's Prayer. Third Meditation - A reflection on a part of the Mass. Fourth Meditation - A reflection on one of the Beatitudes. Fifth Meditation - A reflection about sorrow and suffering. Sixth Meditation - A reflection addressing one of the seven deadly sins. Seventh Meditation - A reflection on the virtues. Eighth Meditation - A reflection on dealing with individuals who reject the Church and Christ's teachings. Ninth Meditation - A reflection on the unity of Jesus and Mary. As the reader ponders these reflections, they might have to pause for a moment or two over a sentence that is full of deep meaning that stirs the heart. He might also find that Archbishop Sheen has repeated certain lines throughout these reflections to drive home a point or an important theme, as any good teacher would do. Archbishop Sheen's dynamic personality combined with his brilliant mind, tireless pen, and eloquent voice has made him one of the best-known figures in the world. His radio and television appearances have been phenomenally successful and are still viewed today. His books and magazine articles continue to gratify and attract a boundless circle of readers.
