Whatever we might say or think about those super-hero movies, we may silently wish that there can be a super-hero(s) to save the world from its distress and danger.
It may be some evil overlord who want to control the world or some meteorite on a collision course with Earth that will exterminate humanity.
Whatever it might be, those super-hero movies arouses our imagination and our subtle wish for a hero (super or otherwise) to eliminate the world's problems and also our problems.
But we do have someone, who is not a superhero that is left to imagination or fantasy, and He has the power to save us from our problems and difficulties.
The 1st reading states that the power of Jesus to save is utterly certain, since He is living for ever to intercede for all who come to God through Him.
The people in the gospel recognised Jesus as the Saviour who had come to drive out evil and to cure diseases and to bring about the reign of the Kingdom of God.
Jesus is not just one of the solutions to the world's problems and our problems.
He is the Saviour of the world and our Saviour. Let us follow Him and no other.
