Catechism A Day: Gospel Verse Lk 5:38
Rather, new wine must be poured into fresh wineskins. THE MEANING & SAVING SIGNIFICANCE OF THE RESURRECTION (CCC Par 654) The Paschal mystery has two aspects:by his death,Christ liberates us from sin;by his Resurrection,he opens for us the way to a new life.This new life is above all justification that reinstates us in God's grace,"so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father,we too might walk in newness of life." Justification consists in both victory over the death caused by sin & a new participation in grace.It brings about filial adoption so that men become Christ's brethren, as Jesus himself called his disciples after his Resurrection:"Go & tell my brethren."We are brethren not by nature,but by the gift of grace,because that adoptive filiation gains us a real share in the life of the only Son,w/c was fully revealed in his Resurrection.
