These words spoken to the people of Israel in the wilderness are spoken again to the church in the New Testament. And spoken to us today. But what is it to be called to be a kingdom of priests? In the understanding of those who wrote our Old Testament lesson, the priest was the focus of everything that God's people gave to God Primates Meetings News Tue, 22 Feb 2005 12:31:00 -0100 http://www.aco.org/acns/news.cfm/2005/2/22/ACNS3944 http://www.aco.org/acns/news.cfm/2005/2/21/ACNS3943 The Primates of the Anglican Communion today met in Dromantine Retreat and Conference Centre near Newry for a five-day conference.

El policía de Nueva York se fijó poco en su pequeña figura hasta que el niño había pasado frente a él cuatro veces. Detuvo al muchacho y le preguntó qué estaba haciendo: "Ocurre, señor," dijo, "que me he arrancado de mi casa, pero mi madre me dijo que nunca cruzara la calle." La historia podría representar bien, en esta estación de Cuaresma, nuestra naturaleza rebelde que, aunque desea la libertad, todavía siente las limitaciones que la ley moral impone en nuestros corazones.

The NY policeman took little regard of the small figure until the boy had passed him four times. He stopped the lad and asked him what he was doing: 'Well, sir,' he said, 'I've run away from home but my mother always told me never to cross the road.' The story could well represent, in this season of Lent, our rebellious nature that desires freedom yet feels the constraint of the moral law in our hearts.

I have no intention of repeating the eloquent words of the Archbishop of Canterbury on Tuesday evening, when he spoke of the future of Jerusalem, this golden city beloved of so many people. At other times, and in other places, I have had my say. Today I simply want to place myself squarely behind the archbishop.
