听听听听听 ITEM 11听听听听听听听听听 HOMILY听听听 ARCHBISHOP STACK听听听听听

Here in St. David鈥檚 Cathedral we are taking care of a beautiful statue of St. John the Baptist. It was one of many bronze and stone statues created by the famous Cardiff sculptor William Goscombe John.听 By the end of the 1890鈥檚 he had established himself as 鈥榃ales national sculptor鈥� and much of his work听 both at Cardiff Castle and beyond was created for the Marquis of Bute, the great benefactor of this city.

Some people say Goscombe John鈥檚 statue is forbidding and threatening.听听 At the height of 鈥�. it certainly provokes a feeling of wonder and awe.听 The gospels portray John as a startling figure too. According to Matthew, John described himself as 鈥淭he voice of one crying in the wilderness鈥�.听 Mark, also, speaks of John as being 鈥溾��clad in a garment of camel鈥檚 hair, with a girdle around his waist, and eating locusts and wild honey鈥�. But it was what he said that perhaps made him most frightening of all. 鈥淩epent, for the kingdom of God is at hand鈥�. And to those who came for Baptism he said: 鈥淵ou brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?鈥�.

Some biblical scholars describe John the Baptist as the last of the Old Testament prophets. So powerful and frightening was his preaching that even a committee from the Sanhedrin asked him 鈥淎re you the Christ of the Messiah?鈥澨� 鈥淣o, I am not鈥� he said. 鈥淲ell, are you Elijah risen from the dead?鈥澨� He said 鈥淣o, I am John. My name is not Elijah鈥�. 鈥淲ell are you the Prophet, the One spoken of by Moses when he said : After I am gone, God will raise you up another prophet like me, and him you shall hear鈥�. (Deut. 18:15). Despite these denials, John still preached in the words of the prophet Isaiah:听 鈥淧repare a way for the Lord, make his paths straight. Every valley shall be filled in, and every mountain and hill shall be laid low鈥�.

It was in 1947 that a young shepherd boy found a way into the caves in Qumran, a dry and arid place near the Dead Sea in Israel. The Dead Sea is 1.294 feet below sea level and the desert around it is dry and arid. Hidden in those caves were scrolls which had been preserved for two thousand years. They revealed the presence of a community living there. These people had given up on the economic and cultural life of Jewish society. They had even abandoned worship in the Temple听 and had withdrawn to the desert to live a life of asceticism, reading apocalyptic literature and waiting for the coming of the Messiah Some scholars identify John the Baptist with this community, not least with his radical way of life. If this is true, he was also a maverick because he left the community and went to confront the Pharisees. They were the doctors of the law. He preached to the Sadducees. They were the aristocrats of the Temple. He even dared to confront King Herod himself. 鈥淚t is not right for you to take your brother鈥檚 wife (Mark 6:18).

The community at Qumran, like many Jewish sects, used the precious gift of water for the many washings, cleansings and purifications associated with their religious practice time and time again. If we accept that John had broken away from the rather introverted Qumran community and struck out on his, was it because he was aware that the waiting was over, 鈥渢he end time had come鈥� and the Messiah was at hand?听 In the light of his preaching, it is easy to see John鈥檚 baptising as something much more than a ritual cleansing to be repeated again and again. It was something definitive, a total change of a way of life, a realisation that the kingdom of God was about to be revealed. 鈥淚 baptise you with water, but someone will come who will baptise you with the Holy Spirit鈥�.

If we see John as the last of the prophets of the Old Testament, we can certainly understand Jesus as the first prophet of the New Testament.听 In submitting to baptism by John he linked the Old Testament expectation with New Testament fulfilment. This is made clear in the first sermon of Jesus in the synagogue at Nazareth recorded in the gospel of Luke. Using the language of the prophet Isaiah once more Jesus said:

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 鈥淭he Spirit of the Lord is upon me,

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 Because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor.

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 And recovering of the sight to the blind,

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 To set at liberty those who are oppressed,

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord鈥�.

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 He concluded with these powerful words:

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 鈥淭oday, this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing鈥�. (Lk4:6-21)

听听听听听听听听听听听听听听听 Baptism remains a pivotal and powerful sacrament in the life of the Church. At its heart lies the belief that through it we die to an old way of life, anything that separates us from God, and rise up to a new life in Christ.听听 At the start of a new year, our minds are often filled with thoughts of fresh beginnings and resolutions - changes that will听听help us improve our health, our relationships, our work and recreation, our studies but听our spiritual lives, too, can be added to that list.听 What better time to remind ourselves听听 of the words of Saint Iraneaus in the second century 鈥淭he Glory of God is humanity听fylly alive鈥�.
