Many movements to deep inclusion

The texts from the Roman Catholic Lectionary today encourage reflection of the nature and depth of the desire of God to be in an intimate relationship with people. Philip is "moved by the Spirit" to become a proclaimer of the Good News. In this action, his human senses are highly attuned for signs like the study and prayer of the Ethiopian eunuch. Friar Jude Winkler picks up the thought that the eunuch would have been excluded from the worship assembly in Jerusalem because of his not being "physically intact". The Book of the Prophet Isaiah was speaking to the eunuch of the "Suffering Servant". Luke, in the Acts of the Apostles, refers to the section of Isaiah where the Suffering Servant endures silent humiliation as justice is denied him. The inclusion by Philip of the Ethiopian eunuch in the revelation of Jesus as Messiah, Suffering Servant is an action which according to Coptic Christian scholars aided in the establishment of the Coptic Christian Church in North Africa.  In the Wisdom literature, the Queen of the South (Sheba?) is identified in Luke 11:31 as coming to listen to the wisdom of Solomon but finding in Jesus time and person something greater than Solomon. The Gospel of John moves the relationship of Jesus as Wisdom Incarnate to deeper intimacy. Friar Jude instructs that the Greek verb in John 6:51 for giving His Flesh for the life of the world is the catholic and deeply intimate invitation to let the Father lead all people to becoming one with the Divine.
