Reading 1 Galatians 5: 1-6
Brothers and
sisters:
For freedom Christ set us free; so stand
firm and do not submit again to the yoke of slavery.
It is I, Paul, who am telling you that
if you have yourselves circumcised, Christ will be of no benefit to you. Once again I
declare to every man who has himself circumcised that he is bound to observe the entire
law. You are separated from Christ,
you who are trying to be justified by
law; you have fallen from grace. For through the Spirit, by faith, we await the hope of
righteousness. For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for
anything, but only faith working through love.
Psalm 119:
41, 43, 44, 45, 47, 48
R. (41a) Let your mercy come to me, O Lord.
Let your mercy
come to me, O LORD,
your salvation according to your promise.
R. Let your mercy come to
me, O Lord.
Take not the word of truth from my mouth,
for in your
ordinances is my hope.
R. Let
your mercy come to me, O Lord.
And I will keep your law
continually,
forever and ever.
R. Let your mercy come to me, O Lord.
And I will
walk at liberty,
because I seek your precepts.
R. Let your mercy come to me, O Lord.
And I will delight in your commands,
which I
love.
R. Let your mercy come to
me, O Lord.
And I will lift up my hands to your commands
and meditate
on your statutes.
R. Let
your mercy come to me, O Lord.
Gospel Lk 11: 37-41
After Jesus had spoken, a Pharisee invited him to dine at his
home.
He entered and reclined at table to
eat.
The Pharisee was amazed to
see
that he did not observe the prescribed washing before the
meal.
The Lord said to him, "Oh you
Pharisees!
Although you cleanse the outside of the cup
and the dish,
inside you are filled with plunder and
evil.
You
fools!
Did not the maker of the outside also make the
inside?
But as to what is within, give
alms,
and behold, everything will be clean for
you."
