Holy Tuesday

On Holy Tuesday the Church calls to remembrance two parables\, which are related to the Second Coming. The one is the par able of the Ten Virgins (Matthew 25:1-3)\; the other the parable of the Ta lents (Matthew 25:14-30). These parables point to the inevitability of the Parousia and deal with such subjects as spiritual vigilance\, stewardship \, accountability and judgment.

From these parables we learn at le ast two basic things. First\, Judgment Day will be like the situation in w hich the bridesmaids (or virgins) of the parable found themselves: some re ady for it\, some not ready. The time one decides for God is now and not a t some undefined point in the future. If “time and tide waits for no man\, ” certainly the Parousia is no exception. The tragedy of the closed door i s that individuals close it\, not God. The exclusion from the marriage fea st\, the kingdom\, is of our own making. Second\, we are reminded that wat chfulness and readiness do not mean a wearisome\, spiritless performance o f formal and empty obligations. Most certainly it does not mean inactivity and slothfulness. Watchfulness signifies inner stability\, soberness\, tr anquility and joy. It means spiritual alertness\, attentiveness and vigila nce. Watchfulness is the deep personal resolve to find and do the will of God\, embrace every commandment and every virtue\, and guard the intellect and heart from evil thoughts and actions. Watchfulness is the intense lov e of God.

In addition\, it is the clear intention of the Sacrament that through the anointing of the sick body the sufferings of the person should be san ctified and united to the sufferings of Christ. In this way\, the wounds o f the flesh are consecrated\, and strength is given that the suffering of the diseased person may not be unto the death of his soul\, but for eterna l salvation in the resurrection and life of the Kingdom of God.\nIt is ind eed the case that death inevitably comes. All must die\, even those who in this life are given a reprieve through healing in order to have more time on the earth. Thus\, the healing of the sick is not itself a final goal\, but is merely “instrumental” in that it is given by God as a sign of his mercy and as a grace for the further opportunity of man to live for him an d for others in the life of this world.\nIn the case where a person is obv iously in the final moments of his earthly life\, the Church has special p rayers for the “separation of soul and body.” Thus\, it is clear that the Sacrament of Holy Unction is for the sick-both the physically and mentally sick-and is not reserved for the moment of death. The Sacrament of Unctio n is not the “last rites” as is sometimes thought\; the ritual of the anoi nting itself in no way indicates that it should be administered merely in “extreme” cases. Holy Unction is the Sacrament of the spiritual\, physical \, and mental healing of a sick person whatever the nature or the gravity of the illness may be.

Holy Unction

When one is ill and in pain\, this can very often be a time of life when one feels alone and isolated. The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick\, or Holy Unction as it is also known\, reminds us that when we are in pain\, either physical\, emotional\, or spiritual\, Ch rist is present with us through the ministry of His Church. He is among us to offer strength to meet the challenges of life\, and even the approach of death.
\nAs with Chrismation\, oil is also used in this Sacrament as a sign of God’s presence\, strength\, and forgiveness.

Orthodoxy does not view this Sacrament as available on ly to those who are near death. It is offered to all who are sick in body\ , mind\, or spirit.
\nChrist came to the world to “bear our infirmiti es.” One of the signs of His divine Messiahship was to heal the sick. The power of healing remains in the Church since Christ himself remains in the Church through the Holy Spirit.
\nThe Sacrament of the Unction of th e sick is the Church’s specific prayer for healing. If the faith of the be lievers is strong enough\, and if it is the will of God\, there is every r eason to believe that the Lord can heal those who are diseased.
\nThe biblical basis for the Sacrament is found in James 5:14-16:
\nIs any among you sick\, let him call for the presbyters of the church\, and let them pray over him\, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord\; and the prayer of faith will save the sick man\, and the Lord will raise him u p\; and if he has committed sins\, he will be forgiven. Therefore\, confes s your sins to one another and pray for one another\, that you may be heal ed.
\nIn ancient Christian literature one may find indirect testimoni es of the Mystery of Unction in Saint Irenaeus of Lyons and in Origen.

\nThe express purpose of the Sacrament of Holy Unction is healing a nd forgiveness. Since it is not always the will of God that there should b e physical healing\, the prayer of Christ that God’s will be done always r emains as the proper context of the Sacrament. In addition\, it is the cle ar intention of the Sacrament that through the anointing of the sick body the sufferings of the person should be sanctified and united to the suffer ings of Christ. In this way\, the wounds of the flesh are consecrated\, an d strength is given that the suffering of the diseased person may not be u nto the death of his soul\, but for eternal salvation in the resurrection and life of the Kingdom of God.
\nIt is indeed the case that death in evitably comes. All must die\, even those who in this life are given a rep rieve through healing in order to have more time on the earth. Thus\, the healing of the sick is not itself a final goal\, but is merely “instrument al” in that it is given by God as a sign of his mercy and as a grace for t he further opportunity of man to live for him and for others in the life o f this world.
\nIn the case where a person is obviously in the final moments of his earthly life\, the Church has special prayers for the “sepa ration of soul and body.” Thus\, it is clear that the Sacrament of Holy Un ction is for the sick-both the physically and mentally sick-and is not res erved for the moment of death. The Sacrament of Unction is not the “last r ites” as is sometimes thought\; the ritual of the anointing itself in no w ay indicates that it should be administered merely in “extreme” cases. Hol y Unction is the Sacrament of the spiritual\, physical\, and mental healin g of a sick person whatever the nature or the gravity of the illness may b e.
