              The Sixth Sunday of Easter — 9 May 2021

UNFURLINGS V
Beware acclaim’s warm
comfort; seek only to be
filled with light, all flame.

Never enough for
your striving: always enough
gift, autumn leaf fall.

Study the conflicts
within you; know them, be free;
flock flying as one.

Those failings? Just your
clumsy attempts to come home:
the door stands open.

Miles brings the trumpet
to his lips: So What! Some day
all will be dancing.

Flowers graffiti
the pavement. Could our work be
to notice beauty?
                                       Ian Adams, Unfurling (Norwich: Canterbury Press, 2014), p. 8.

FROM THE RECTOR

When I first arrived at the Rectory in Mosman Park, I saw a big garden with lots of potential!
There had been extensive landscaping done, with clear garden beds and good paths, and some
spaces available. The climate is the opposite to where I have come from (eg. annual rainfall of
2,000mm to ca 730mm in Perth), and the soil is very sandy with little organic matter. Still, having
lived in Dubbo, NSW, with similar conditions, I was prepared and thought about how I might begin
my gardening here.
A year later, some of what I have planted has grown, some have died. Certainly there is an
adjustment to lower rainfall and poorer soil! What I had dreamed of has not yet come to fruition
and I am glad I didn’t do everything at once. It may take a number of years for my dream to be
realised. Life in the Church is like this as well—seemingly complete at times, but not really
finished yet, and unlikely to be so until some unknown time in the future.
This week we celebrate the Ascension of Jesus Christ on Ascension Day and will soon celebrate
the coming of the Spirit at Pentecost. On the Feast of the Ascension we remember Jesus’ words
to his closest friends before he was taken up to heaven: “Go into all the world and proclaim the
good news to the whole creation.” Today these words are addressed to us as the members of the
Body of Christ alive in the world.
Jesus’ death and resurrection earned for us a new life and a ‘New Jerusalem,’ but we’re not there
yet. Jesus’ ascension and the arrival of the Spirit show us that same thing—where Jesus has
gone, we one day hope to follow—but not yet. ‘Already but not yet’ is one of the overlooked
paradoxes of our Christian faith. This odd in-between (liminal) time is hard to wrap our heads
around. Most of us view heaven as the ultimate and final destination of our souls, but that’s only
because that’s what it’s been for 2,000 years. Our grandparents, or even parents, might have had
to memorise this answer (or something similar) from the Baltimore Catechism: “God made me
known to Him, to love Him, and to serve Him in this world, and to be happy with Him for ever in
heaven.” But wait—isn’t that the ultimate goal, as recited in the Nicene Creed every Sunday, the
resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come?
It feels, sometimes, as if our church has lost that sense of expectation after all this time. Do we,
like the early apostles might have, glance up at each passing cloud and wonder, is this the one
that is bringing Jesus back to us? When will Christ come again? Is it today? Am I ready? These
are the sorts of things we pray over at the end of each Church year and into Advent as well—but
this is also the perfect time to reexamine our lives and our faith. Are we ready? How can we be
more ready? How can we more deeply ponder these serious questions?

Alleluia! Christ is risen.

For Your Contemplation
✜ In the Acts of the Apostles, “the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard the word.” When has the
    Holy Spirit fallen on you?
✜ The psalm invites us to “sing to the Lord a new song.” Where is God calling you to newness
    in the spiritual life?
✜ The First Letter of John declares that “the love of God is…obey[ing] his commandments.” In
    your relationship with God, do you find yourself focusing more on the love of God or the
    observance of the commandments?
✜ In the Gospel parable Jesus expresses his desire that “my joy may be in you, and that your
    joy may be complete.” Where do you find your greatest joy at this moment in your life?

TODAY’S REFLECTIONS

REACHING OUT IN THE DARK
                           I remember in my youth, my friend and I, after our first experience of
                           the Orthodox Ascension Liturgy, loudly lamenting, ‘He’s gone! He’s
                           gone!’ There is certainly in Orthodoxy a sense of bereavement when the
                           Easter Hymn and Greeting suddenly resound no more.
                           Of course, theologically our lament was rather unsophisticated. Jesus
                           at his ascension does not simply disincarnate himself and abandon
                           earth for heaven, like an alien visitor returning to his mothership! He
declares, ‘I am with you always, to the end of time’ (Matt 28:20). He remains incarnate, taking our
humanity into the depths of the Trinity, with consequences we shall later explore.
Nevertheless Jesus was no longer present in a locatable way in space and time. He was no
longer the companion, conversationalist, collaborator and lover in the way he had been. There is
a perfectly straightforward sense in which he was now absent — intangible and
incomprehensible — even if in a more profound way he would be even more present — for our
bodies keep us apart a well as unite us together, and now he could be present in the mysteries
and in the heart in a way in which he was not before. But those are modes of presence we have
to learn — as part of our late Easter ‘mystagogy,’ perhaps.
To learn them, we have to go through honestly with the pain of loss. C. S. Lewis found in relation
to his own loss of his wife:
     Passionate grief does not link us with the dead but cuts us off from them…It is just at
     those moments when I feel least sorrow — getting into my morning bath is one of them —
     that H. rushes upon my mind in her full reality, her otherness. Not, as in my worst
     memories, all foreshortened and patheticised and solemnised by my miseries, but as she
     is in her own right.
In their different ways, Mary, Thomas and the Emmaus Road disciples show how grief can turn
us emotionally and intellectually inward, unable to see the light when it is there. Jesus had to
address Mary’s blinding passion, Thomas’ blinding gloom and the disciples’ blinding despair,
before they could see him as he is in his own right.
As a Church, perhaps in our anxiety to show ourselves to be ‘normal’ happy healthy modern
people, we tend to avoid sorrow and lament. As with Christmas, so with Pentecost, we want to
get on quickly to the joyful bits. In our desire to be an ‘Easter people’ we tend to want to affirm
the continuity between ourselves and the first disciples, as if our spiritual experience of Jesus
alive in and among us were exactly the same as the experience of the early disciples at the
empty tomb and in the upper room. And the Church has sometimes claimed to be a continuation
of the incarnation, being the infallible spirit-filled body of Christ after Jesus' departure. The more

                                                                                               PAGE 7
we emphasise the ascension, with Christ now reigning as in one sense Lord of all history, but also
in a sense removed now from historical time, the harder those bold claims become. That is of
course precisely why the Reformers, challenging the Catholic view, did emphasise it. So for
several reasons we often downplay the ascension and the great gulf it fixes between the 40 days
of Jesus’ post-resurrection earthly appearances, and our experience of the ascended Lord today.
So one thing — the first and seemingly theologically unsophisticated thing — Ascension does for
us is confront us with the third great darkness. Early Lent confronted us with our own darkness,
the darkness of sin and our inability to set our lives in order. Passiontide showed us the darkness
of the suffering and the death it was necessary for the Son of Man to undergo: the darkness
located as it were at the place where God and humanity join in Christ. But Ascensiontide
confronts us with the darkness of God as such, the unknowable and unfathomable boundless
depth and height to which the Christ returns, and to which now, like an anchor held fast in the
heights, he irrevocably draws us. Perhaps this season more than any other resonates with our
own age and the eclipse of God for so many.
That eclipse and darkness is very evident in Scripture and tradition. Job and Ecclesiastes present
us with a radically different kind of wisdom from the Song of Songs, one in which despair and the
sense of the vanity of all things are the negative side of the knowledge of God. And the Christian
mystical tradition speaks of darkness as much as light, the unknowability as much as the
knowability of God. According to the fourth-century theologian from Asia Minor, Gregory of
Nyssa, God is known only through a longing, a reaching out (epektasis) in the darkness, which —
because God is infinite — can never encompass its goal.
    This truly is the vision of God: never to be satisfied in the desire to see him. But one must
    always, by looking at what he can see, rekindle the desire to see more. Thus, no limit
    would interrupt growth in the ascent to God, since no limit to the Good can be found nor
    is the increasing of desire for the Good brought to an end because it is satisfied.
In Matthew Jesus meets his disciples for the last time on a mountain in Galilee (Matt 28:16-20),
while in Luke a specific ascension is mentioned as taking place on the outskirts of Bethany
(24:50-53). In Acts (1:6-11) the cloud that received Jesus suggests but does not necessitate a
high place. But the mountain as the place of ascension is imaginatively rich in its link with the
traditions that speak of the ascent to God as being an ascent on the mountain, with — in the
anonymous Cloud of Unknowing — clouds of forgetting shrouding the created world, and a cloud
of unknowing shrouding God above, and only the dart of love able to penetrate that thick cloud.
The ascension, I suggest, leads us onward in that kind of mountain journey. When we climb a
mountain we learn soon to respect its otherness, its mystery and its danger. In Asceniontide we
learn respect for otherness and mystery in God and in one another. Also on the mountain we can
get lost in cloud, and then suddenly we can see for miles as never before. So Ascensiontide is
also about allowing ourselves and one another to get lost and confused in what Ruysbroeck
called the ‘wayless ways’ of God, but also, at times, to stand before God on the heights in an
uncanny new naked clarity.

SOMETHING DIFFERENT: ASCENSION DAY
Ascension Day declares the primary task of every church in Christendom, its true vocation. It is,
in its worship and its common life, to acknowledge the authority of Jesus Christ in all things, at
all times and in all places, and to spell out the implications of that truth. And to invite all who will
hear to turn and discover the new way of life that foreshadows life in the kingdom of God.
An immodest kind of agenda, some will think, and I’d agree. But then it’s an immodest kind of
claim, that first Easter claim that began to change the world. For it claims that in Christ, God was
doing nothing less than re-creating humanity, remoulding human nature, redefining what he has
shaped us to be, showing how life may be transformed in the light of what God has done for us in
Christ.
People like Peter and John, who had known Jesus in the flesh, were in the end persuaded that
God was in him in a unique sense. They came to understand that the deepest questions of all,
questions about the nature of God and the meaning of our life, our suffering and our death, need
to be seen against the background of the life, suffering, dying and rising of Jesus Christ. And in a
kind of shorthand summary they began to use the words: ‘Jesus is Lord.’
For people like Paul, who hadn’t known Jesus in the flesh, the experience was different. When he
said ‘Jesus is Lord,’ he spoke of one whom he knew as a life-giving Spirit, experienced in the
worshipping life of small communities of Christians. And he invented another phrase to describe
his experience: to believe and to be baptised was to be ‘in Christ,’ opening your life to him, so that
gradually Christ might refashion you in his own likeness.
For both Peter and Paul that phrase, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ had huge implications. It meant that his
claim on your life was total, that the standards and values by which you sought to live, in your
public as well as your private life, were his values of truth and compassion, unselfishness and
forgiveness, and generosity of spirit.
It still does mean that. To build your life on the values of Jesus is costly and desperately hard —
but we are not judged on whether we succeed. We are judged on whether we desire to do so and
are not deterred by repeated failure.
To build a Christ-centred community in Westminster Abbey or in a parish church — that’s hard
too, though most of us have been lucky enough, every now and then, to glimpse it, to know it’s
possible.
But to have a vision of what it means for public life, the life of a nation, to be based on the
sovereignty of God and the authority of Christ, that requires a stubborn and persistent refusal to
conform to worldly values because you have glimpsed something different: that redefined and re-
created humanity that Christians call the kingdom of God.
Is that cloud-cuckoo land? It would seem like it in a world in which horror piles on horror, in which
we torture and imprison and kill each other, in which some make unjust laws and others get rich
selling weapons of war. Yet there has always been a kind of foolishness about the gospel, which
says that the world is not just what it seems; that there is another dimension in which God is at
work in his people; that, daily, evil is both challenged and redeemed by countless small acts of

                                                                                                 PAGE 9
love, courage, goodness and self-sacrifice. So that, for example, even in those long dark years of
Hitler’s Germany, Stalin’s Russia or the nationalists’ South Africa, the human spirit stubbornly
refused to be suppressed, and there was the vital leaven of a powerful and courageous Christian
witness by a minority who even in prison cells ‘set their minds on God’s kingdom and his justice
before everything else.’
So Ascensiontide sets before Christians an immodest kind of agenda, one that would have been
stillborn were it not for one thing: the readiness of those first Christians, in their first glimmering
awareness of what God had done in Christ, to wait in the city until the Spirit was given at
Pentecost, and they knew they had not been deserted. For they found Christ again, within and
among them, only this time as a life-giving Spirit. And that is why we now are able to stand where
they stood two thousand years later and, with people out of every nation under heaven, dare to
place our trust in the lordship of Christ.
                                Michael Mayne, Alleluia is Our Song: Reflections on Easter and Pentecost,
                                                            (Norwich: Canterbury Press, 2018), pp. 50-52.

FRIENDS
The union that binds the members of Christ together is not the union of proud confidence in the
power of an organisation. The Church is united by the humility as well as by the charity of her
members. Hers is the union that comes from the consciousness of individual fallibility and
poverty, from the humility which recognises its own limitations and accepts them, the meekness
that cannot take upon itself to condemn, but can only forgive because it is conscious that it has
itself been forgiven by Christ.
The union of Christians is a union of friendship and mercy, a bearing of one another’s burdens in
the sharing of divine forgiveness. Christian forgiveness is not confined merely to those who are
members of the Church. To be a Christian one must love all people, including not only one’s own
enemies but even those who claim to be the ‘enemies of God.’ ‘Whosoever is angry with his
brother or sister shall be in danger of the judgement. Love your enemies, do good to them that
hate you, pray for them that persecute and speak calumny of you, that you may be the children of
your Father who is in heaven.’
The solidarity of the Christian community is not based on the awareness that the Church has
authority to cast out and to anathematise, but on the realisation that Christ has given her the
power to forgive sin in his name and to welcome the sinner to the banquet of his love in the holy
Eucharist. More than this, the Church is aware of her divine mission to bring forgiveness and
peace to all men and women. This means not only that Christians themselves must bring love,
mercy and justice into the lives of their neighbours, in order to reveal to them the presence of
Christ in his Church. And this can only be done if all Christians strive generously to love and serve
all people with whom they come into contact in their daily lives.

RECOGNISING CHRIST
We are not to stare absently into an empty sky to look out for those glimpses of glory which
reflect the divine majesty and refract God’s splendour. We must look to Jesus, in other words, so
that…we too might see the natural world of sea, rock and earth as being redolent with divine
glory, and recognise Christ in the faces of friends and strangers.

ABSENCE
Christ’s last appearance on earth posed an almost insoluble problem for the artist. For the
important thing about this appearance was the fact of disappearance, and…absence is hard to
paint interestingly…And since movement is as difficult to paint as absence, most artists

A BIRTHDAY
My heart is like a singing bird
        Whose nest is in a watered shoot:
My heart is like an apple-tree
        Whose boughs are bent with thickset fruit;
My heart is like a rainbow shell
        That paddles in a halcyon sea;
My heart is gladder than all these
        Because my love is come to me.
Raise me a dais of silk and down;
        Hang it with vair and purple dyes;
Carve it in doves and pomegranates,
        And peacocks with a hundred eyes;
Work it in gold and silver grapes,
        In leaves and silver fleur-de-lys;
Because the birthday of all my life
        Is come, my love is come to me.
