JESUS COME INTO THE WORLD TO SAVE SINNERS

SATURDAY WEEK 23 IN ORDINARY TIME : Universalis
Saints Cornelius, Pope and Cyprian, Bishop, Martyrs 
‘Why do you call me, “Lord, Lord” and not do what I say? 

Reading 1 Timothy 1:15-17
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners

Here is a saying that you can rely on and nobody should doubt: that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. I myself am the greatest of them; and if mercy has been shown to me, it is because Jesus Christ meant to make me the greatest evidence of his inexhaustible patience for all the other people who would later have to trust in him to come to eternal life. To the eternal King, the undying, invisible and only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Responsorial Psalm: May the name of the Lord be blessed for evermore

Gospel Luke 6:43-49 Whoever hears me builds his house on a rock

Jesus said to his disciples: 

CDR: ‘There is no sound tree that produces rotten fruit, nor again a rotten tree that produces sound fruit. For every tree can be told by its own fruit: people do not pick figs from thorns, nor gather grapes from brambles. A good man draws what is good from the store of goodness in his heart; a bad man draws what is bad from the store of badness. For a man’s words flow out of what fills his heart. 

‘Why do you call me, “Lord, Lord” and not do what I say? 

‘Everyone who comes to me and listens to my words and acts on them – I will show you what he is like. He is like the man who when he built his house dug, and dug deep, and laid the foundations on rock; when the river was in flood it bore down on that house but could not shake it, it was so well built. But the one who listens and does nothing is like the man who built his house on soil, with no foundations: as soon as the river bore down on it, it collapsed; and what a ruin that house became!’

Heavenly Father, my God I love and adore you. Lord Jesus Christ you are my Lord and Saviour. Be with me Lord. May I do what you say as I listen to your commands. Lord Jesus Christ I trust in you. Virgin Mary pray for me. Saint Joseph pray for me. Saints Cornelius, Pope and Cyprian, Bishop pray for me. My Angels Guardian pray for me.

Pray the Holy Rosary: Hail Mary full of grace. Mother pray for me that I may listen to your instruction saying 'Do whatever he tells you'.
