The message of the Heart of Jesus and the Gospel according to Saint John
01 Introduction to the Gospel of John
The Gospel of John as the cream of the scriptures
The episode of the pierced side as the perspective point for the entire Gospel of John
The pierced heart of Jesus, united to that of Mary, is therefore the key to interpreting not only the Gospel of John but all of Scripture.
02 The Sacred Heart on Maundy Thursday
The mad love of the heart of Jesus in the Eucharist and on the Cross symbolised by the gesture of the washing of the feet.
The mystery of Judas' betrayal, like the rejection of the love of Jesus' Heart, especially in the Eucharist
Jean, the beloved disciple, as an antithesis to Judas, Comforter of the Heart of Christ
03 The Pierced Hearts of Jesus and Mary on Good Friday
Jean's gift to Mary and Mary's gift to Jean at the foot of the Cross, testament to Jesus' love
Jesus' thirst and humanity's inability to adequately satisfy it
●The superabundant gift of the Father's mercy through the blood and water that flowed from Christ's side
“they will look upon him whom they have pierced”: the ultimate gift of the Holy Spirit is to allow us to recognise in the immolated Lamb the one whom we have pierced
04 The Glorified Heart of Jesus on Easter Sunday and the Eighth Day After Easter
The appearance of Christ to his Apostles locked in the Upper Room
● The appearance to Thomas and the conversion of he who would become the most missionary of the apostles, witness to the mercy of the Heart of Jesus in his life and in his death
