Behold the Lamb Audio
(English)

(Rev.) Emmanuel Charles McCarthy

This professionally recorded retreat on the Nonviolent Jesus of the Gospels and His Way of Nonviolent Love of friends and enemies was given by Emmanuel Charles McCarthy at the Shrine of the Lamb in Knock, Ireland. It consists of sixteen presentations, which collectively contain what is considered to be the most comprehensive and spiritually profound proclamation of Jesus' vital Gospel message of Nonviolent Love.

He takes as his central theme the Nonviolent Lamb of God and focuses on this biblical symbol and reality as the true icon and transcendental model for encountering God as revealed by Jesus, and for understanding and following the Way of God as taught by Jesus. Every Christian, every Christian Church, indeed all humanity, should ponder if what is said here about God and God's Way as made visible by Jesus, the Lamb of God, is THE GOOD NEWS for which each human being, consciously or subconsciously, ceaselessly yearns-if what is said here genuinely fulfills the hopes and quenches the fears, that universally reside at the deepest recesses of each human soul.

The titles of the talks are:

1. The Lamb: To Be Adored and Imitated
2. The Lamb: The Mystery of Gods Suffering Servant
3. The Mind of the Lamb
4. The Lamb Who Glorifies God
5. The Church: A Fold of Lambs
6. The Love That Is Lamb-Like
7. The Lamb in a Jungle
8. The Means of the Lamb
9. The Lamb Who Is Rich in Mercy
10. The Security of the Lamb
11. The Trustworthy Lamb
12. The Mystery of the Oneness in the Lamb: Baptism
13. The Lambs Lamb: Mary
14. The Lamb of Forgiving Love
15. The Lamb of Serving Love
16. The Resurrected Lamb

Behold The Lamb y su traducción al español, Ese es el Cordero, son propiedad intelectual de Dios. Dios es verdad, fuente de toda verdad, y desea que sus criaturas -- a quienes dio la capacidad de conocer la Verdad -- conozcan la Verdad. Todo cuanto es verdad pertenece a Dios, y también, mediante Dios, a la humanidad. La Verdad es un regalo de amor (ágape) para todos nosotros, los seres humanos. Solamente se le considera propiedad privada, y no la propiedad en común de toda la humanidad (por ser fruto del esfuerzo de todos los seres humanos), cuando la secuestran personas violentas, codiciosas y egoístas para dominarla y con ello aumentar su poder y su riqueza a expensas de sus hermanos y hermanas -- y a expensas también del Plan Divino de su Padre Eterno. Objetivamente, la única propiedad privada es el error. La Verdad es, esencialmente, universal. Nosotros -- Emmanuel Charles McCarthy, el autor humano de estas conferencias, y Manuel E. Soto Viera, su traductor humano al español -- con gozo y entusiasmo te damos Ese es el Cordero a ti, lector, para cualquier verdad que estas conferencias te traigan desde la Eternidad en pro del bien temporal y eterno de todas las gentes.
