What is the significance of march 25

The members of the fellowship still had work to do. Similarly, though the incarnation and the cross spell the defeat of Satan, we, too, have work to do. And like Frodo, our success will come not through earthly power, but by humility. For it was by the humility that characterized Mary, the New Eve, that she untied the knot of the first Eve, and it was by his humility that Christ overcame death Phil — Photo by Jeremy Perkins on Unsplash.

Fortunately, he loves talking about stories. And Catholicism. And history. Mirroring Christian history, Tolkien presents to his readers an incredible juxtaposition of life and death. Mary's acceptance of Christ's Incarnation - her fiat - was a death to her own plans or desires for her life; Christ's humiliation, torture, and crucifixion was the ultimate act of love brought about through death.

Through Frodo's death to himself, he conquers the evil of Sauron and brings about an age of peace for Middle-Earth. Through Christ's death to himself, he conquers death and brings about eternal life. So this date is quite an important day for us all - and now that you know, I hope you'll find a little way to celebrate. Start Here. Living Like a Hobbit. On the Blog: Living Like a Hobbit.
