HOSANNA TO THE SON OF DAVID
By H.G. Yoohanon Mar Chrysostomos Metropolitan
Though the followers of Jesus shouted and sang Hosanna, they failed to understand who Jesus was? Lord Jesus was not the earthly redeemer from the yoke of Romans, and His Kingdom was not of this world. Prophet Joel make a serious call to the people, to return and repent, fast and pray, and to seek unto God for mercy, with directions how to do this alright. Our fasting and weeping are worth nothing if we do not tear our heart and turn to Lord.

St. Thomas physically saw, believed and expanded as a fire to witness and spread Gospel of His resurrection to India. This is the real heritage of the Malankara Christians.

DEVINE FOOT TOUCH OF LORD JESUS
CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION TO THE BIBLICAL HOLY LAND [MALAYALAM]
By H.G. Editor Dr. Rajan Mathew
Land in the Bible is real place on our own earth and not the background of any man-written story or a tale. Bible is a record of unfeigned events, really lived people, at legitimate places of the surface of earth in the span of a great period. It is the message of transcended God who created earth and heaven and everything involved with world. God's association with the world and people is not in an abstract way but in tangible ways involving real people and in comprehensive ways. So Land of Israel in the Bible has huge impact in the history of mankind because of God's involvement. It is the chosen land of God.

ECUMENISM: A NEW LIFE STYLE OF HUMAN RELATION
By H.H. Baselios Marthoma Mathews III
Our Lord Jesus presses upon us that righteousness towards men which is an essential branch of true ecumenism and that leads towards God. The rule in general is whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you even so to them. We cannot expect to receive good things from God, if we do not fair things, and that which is honest, and lovely, and of good report among men. The negatively approach of forbidden comes out of a rule, positive commitment comes out of Godly love.

BROTHERLY LOVE THROUGH GREAT LENT
By H.H. Baselios Marthoma Mathews III
Great Lent is a period of renewal and rejuvenation through penitence. In general, a fast is intended, for the honoring and pleasing of God. It is not enough to look demure, to put on a grave and melancholy aspect, to bow down the head like a bulrush that is withered and broken. Real Lent is to share your bread with the hungry and bring the homeless poor into the house; when you see the naked, to cover him; And not to hide yourself from your own flesh.

RECONCILIATION THROUGH GREAT LENT

GANDHIAN ETHICS AND ITS IMPORTANCE ON SOCIETY
By Rev. Fr. Dr. K.M. George
The most important two ideals of the Mahatma Gandhi were Satyagraha and Ahimsa. Ahimsa is the doctrine of refraining from harming any living being. Ahimsa is one of the cardinal virtues and an important tenet of Jainism. Satyagraha is a term coined by Gandhi on his own. The way of Satyagraha was experimented by Gandhi in South Africa and then followed it in India for the Freedom Struggle. Satyagraha literally means “hold onto the truth.” So, true Satyagraha needs purification of body, mind and spirit. It is the philosophy of nonviolent resistance to authorities.

TWO WORD PRAYER OF ST. PAUL : MARANATHA
By Rev. Fr. Dr. T. J. Joshua - Orthodox Theological Seminary, Kottayam
Maranatha is the smallest prayer of St. Paul, we can see in his epistles. Maranatha is an Aramaic phrase occurring once only in the New Testament and also in the Didache which is part of the Apostolic Fathers' collection. It is transliterated into Greek letters rather than translated, and is found at the end of Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians. (1 Corinthians 16:22) This was a traditional prayer of early Christian Church which means 'O Lord, come!', for the early return of Jesus Christ. The prayer interpretation of the word is supported by what appears to be a Greek equivalent of this acclamation in Rev 22:20 'Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!'

As per the New Testament, body of person is the temple of God and it should be preserved holy as a Church. God is Holy and He can dwell only in a holy temple. Man himself is not holy or saintly as God is the only holy. Believers who keep the holiness of God became the Saint in God. They produce the fruits of Holy Spirit. We should not defile the temple of God with vices of world and flesh. Intoxication with liquor, over indulgence fleshy desires, addiction of drugs, and these all defile the body which is the temple of God.

GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND LOVE OF THE GOD AND COMMUNION OF THE HOLY GOST
By Rev. Fr. Dr. T. J. Joshua
St. Paul concludes his Epistles to Corinthians with a valediction and a benediction. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. It is usual and proper to dismiss worshipping assemblies in all denominations of Christianity. This plainly proves the doctrine of the gospel, and is an acknowledgment that Father, Son, and Spirit, are three distinct persons, yet but one God; and herein the same, that they are the fountain of all blessings to men. This benediction reiterates the faith in Trinity. The believers live in a continual regard to the three persons in the Trinity, into whose name we were baptized, and in whose name we are blessed. We can desire no more to make us happy than the grace of Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost.

CHURCH - THE PLACE OF WORSHIP
By Rev. Fr. Dr. T. J. Joshua
The innate desire of human to communicate with his creator has caused him to commence the worship of God. Initially he started to worship God in his own house. Later the communal worship had come into existence. While the Israelite went through the desert they started making tabernacle and lived around it. Eventually King Solomon made the Church of God in Jerusalem. Lord Jesus Christ loved the Church and He was keen to go to the Church regularly. It is not the tradition or bigness of the Church count, it should be worshipping place which rejuvenate our spiritual life. Our Body is another form of Church wherein the God resides.

WORLD, FLESH AND SATAN
By Rev. Abraham Zachariah
The strong forces, which retract those walks looking at God and heaven, are world, Flesh and Satan. These three forces try to drag men in the Old Testament and New Testament. Though the disciples of Jesus were in state of aimlessness after crucifixion of Jesus, Jesus Himself dragged them back to their commission. After the downpour of Holy Spirit on the Pentecost, the disciples became transformed and defeated the world, flesh and Satan.

FOR SHE HAS DONE A GOOD DEED TO ME?
By Rev. Fr. O. Thomas
God has Godly yardstick to measure the deeds of man. He does not look through human eyes. Deeds which are seen as mean in human eyes are considered lofty in the eyes of God. What ever come out of Godly love will be considered as Good by God. While we express our intense love to God we loose many material things in the world. Our services and ministry to God should be out of our thankfulness to God for forgiving our sins and given a transformed life. Jesus hate sin, but he loves the sinners. Heaven rejoice on the repentance of the sinner.

CHRISTMAS MESSAGE

Christmas is the greatest gift of God given to the world out of His abundant love. God has loved the world so much as to give His begotten Son for the world.

By Mrs. Elizebeth Sam
When a person comes into Christ, he/she have to put off the old man with its deeds. The new man gets renewed in knowledge and understanding. The new creation gets reformed in similitude of the image of his creator by sanctifying grace. In the privileges and duty of sanctification there is no difference between human to human, arising from nationality, caste, creed, language or educational or social status. Christ came to take down all partition-walls, that all might stand on the same level before God, both in duty and privilege. And for this reason, Christ is all and in all.

BE STRONG TO DO GOOD
By Evng. Br. Viji Alexander

INFANT BAPTISM ACCEPTABLE OR FORBIDDEN? [A STUDY]
By H.H. Basalios Marthoma Mathews II
If the Spirit of God could hatch and form a new creation from lifeless material without form, and void; how much more the Spirit of God can work upon His living handiwork? Scriptures witness very authentically that children can receive the grace and blessings of God and above it they are chosen, separated and equipped for the special mission of God. Many early church fathers had witnessed in their ecclesiastical works that Infant Baptism was a holy tradition of the early century Christian Church.

WE ARE FOREIGNERS
By Evng. Br. Viji Alexander
For a man's life consist not in the abundance of the things, which he possess. Selfishness tends to lead to possessiveness and possessiveness leads to arrogance. Selfness is a sweet treat to the innately sinful nature of man. It is our Scriptural charge to place God above all in all ways. He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves abundance with its income. He who profits illicitly troubles his own house. When we give generously our heart shall not be grieved, because for this thing the Lord bless us in all our work and undertakings.

WHO ARE THE BLESSED?
By H.G. Mathews Mar Barnabas
The blessings of God themselves need not make any one blessed. It is what one becomes through the grace of God, that one becomes really blessed. Poverty in spiritual realm cannot be a blessing in itself. But those who are aware of the fact that they have spiritual deficits, are blessed because they may crave for more spirituality and this can lead to heavenly blessings.

NOW WE KNOW ONLY IN PART
By Rev. Dr. Valsan Thampu
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known.

WHAT YOU WILL GIVE TO ME?
By Fr. Varghese Varghese
Spirituality of the modern world is debased as the means to reap personal gains.

THOUGHTS FOR LENT PERIOD
By V. Rev. K. Mathai CorEpiscopa
Lent means lengthening of Daytime hours. During the Lent period we abstain from our ardency food and pleasures and live with God. Len or Fasting is established by God and not by man.

TRNASFIGURATION THROUGH GRACE
By Rev. Rajkumar
When we are turned to Christ a veil of our heart is removed. Then we are able to perceive the word of God very clearly. If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away, new things have come. Sinful, anxious, discouraging, futile, unforgiving and worldly thoughts are not conforming to the mind of Christ. Holy Scripture sanctifies our mind and heart. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within us.
