We can break out of the natural world and enter the supernatural realm, to know the reality of how close God is to us. One of the most important ways in which we on earth are in communion with God in heaven is through the ceremony Catholics call the Mass. At Mass the priest brings into the world the death on the cross of Jesus Christ, man and God in the same person, and by this historical death 2000 years ago, Jesus' act of doing justice to God for the offences of all people, past present or future. God is so good, that any evil act or neglect of the good, the true or the beautiful is abhorrent by way of insult to his absolutely pure qualities. Justice, of the absolute degree, demands a punishment, a recompense for the insult.
