Mystery of Divine Will: A Hebrew Catholic Reflection on Unity
Pope John Paul II in 'Orientale Lumen' expresses his passionate longing for a "full manifestation of the Church's catholicity to be restored to the world". He longed for the divided Eastern and Western Churches to reunite in full unity. Traditionally the West has stressed the crucifixion and the humanity of the Messiah, the East the Resurrection and the Divinity, in their respective approaches to spiritual life.
How can we reunite these two spiritual ways of the human and divine so they enrich the whole Church and humanity? John Paul II the Great speaks of the East and West as the two lungs of the Mystical Body which is the Church. However it is the heart that pumps blood to these lungs and to all the Body.
