Isaiah 50:4-7
Psalm 22
Philippians 2:6-11
Matthew 26:14 – 27:66

Saint Augustine and other early fathers of the Church held that people stand at an intersection between two diametrically opposed forces, almost like the force of gravity. There is the force of evil that pulls us away from God, down beneath our true and unique human dignity inherent in our nature. Then there is the force of God’s unconditional love, that pulls us up towards Him and draws from us the desire to love God in return.
