  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  Revelation 7:2-4, 9-14

  2Then I saw another angel ascend from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea, 3saying, "Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God upon their foreheads." 4And I heard the number of the sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand sealed, out of every tribe of the sons of Israel, 9After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!" 11And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12saying, "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen." 13Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?" 14I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

  RESPONSORIAL PSALM

  Psalms 24:1-6

  1The earth is the LORD's and the fulness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein; 2for he has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the rivers. 3Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD? And who shall stand in his holy place? 4He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false, and does not swear deceitfully. 5He will receive blessing from the LORD, and vindication from the God of his salvation. 6Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. [Selah]

  SECOND LECTURE OF THE MASS

  1 John 3:1-3

  1See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2Beloved, we are God's children now; it does not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 3And every one who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  Matthew 5:1-12

  1Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down his disciples came to him. 2And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying: 3"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. 5"Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. 6"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. 7"Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. 8"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 9"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 10"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11"Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. 12Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so men persecuted the prophets who were before you.

  FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

  phil 1:1-11

  Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus,
  to all the holy ones in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi,
  with the bishops and deacons:
  grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
  
  I give thanks to my God at every remembrance of you,
  praying always with joy in my every prayer for all of you,
  because of your partnership for the Gospel
  from the first day until now.
  I am confident of this,
  that the one who began a good work in you
  will continue to complete it
  until the day of Christ Jesus.
  It is right that I should think this way about all of you,
  because I hold you in my heart,
  you who are all partners with me in grace,
  both in my imprisonment
  and in the defense and confirmation of the Gospel.
  For God is my witness,
  how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.
  And this is my prayer:
  that your love may increase ever more and more
  in knowledge and every kind of perception,
  to discern what is of value,
  so that you may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,
  filled with the fruit of righteousness
  that comes through Jesus Christ
  for the glory and praise of God.

  GOSPEL OF THE MASS

  lk 14:1-6

  On a sabbath Jesus went to dine
  at the home of one of the leading Pharisees,
  and the people there were observing him carefully.
  In front of him there was a man suffering from dropsy.
  Jesus spoke to the scholars of the law and Pharisees in reply, asking,
  “Is it lawful to cure on the sabbath or not?”
  But they kept silent; so he took the man and,
  after he had healed him, dismissed him.
  Then he said to them
  “Who among you, if your son or ox falls into a cistern,
  would not immediately pull him out on the sabbath day?”
  But they were unable to answer his question.
