REFLECTION During the time of Christ, astronomy was well developed in the Near
East. One of the first visitors when Jesus was born were the 'wise
men,' coming from the east. People believed that much of their fate
was determined by these heavenly realities. They set their festivals or
celebrations according to seasons and natural events. Even now, we
still have remnants of such mentality in the power of heavenly bodies
in the horoscopes or in the writings about extra-terrestrial experienc-
es which some papers and magazines carry, no matter how incredible
their claims may sound. No wonder, many people still set their date of
their wedding on a day with a full moon, even though it cannot deter-
mine their future.
It is in this frame of mind that Jesus deals with, in explaining his sec-
ond coming. He will be the light of the world, the power that will rule
the world. He will be the new creation. It will not be a matter of being
born under the right star, but of accepting his glory and power. We do
not have to entrust our destiny to heavenly realities. Jesus has come
to change the direction of our life. He has the light to guide us in find-
ing the meaning of life and the power to make us live up to it.
