Daily Readings - October 11, 2011 - Tuesday

First Reading: Romans 1: 16-25
Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 19: 2-3, 4-5
Holy Gospel: Luke 11: 37-41


Holy Gospel:

37 As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee asked him to have a meal with him. So he went and sat at table. 38 The Pharisee then wondered why Jesus did not first wash his hands before dinner. 39 But the Lord said to him, “So then, you Pharisees, you clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside yourselves you are full of greed and evil. 40 Fools! He who made the outside, also made the inside. 41 But according to you, by the mere giving of alms everything is made clean.


First Reading:

16 For I am not ashamed at all of this Good News; it is God’s power saving those who believe, first the Jews, and then the Greeks. 17 This Good News shows us the saving justice of God; a justice that saves exclusively by faith, as the Scripture says: The upright one shall live by faith.

18 For the wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and injustice of those who have silenced the truth by their wicked ways. 19 For everything that could have been known about God was clear to them: God himself made it plain. 20 Because his invisible attributes—his everlasting power and divinity—are made visible to reason by means of his works since the creation of the world.

So they have no excuse, 21 for they knew God and did not glorify him as was fitting, nor did they give thanks to him. On the contrary, they lost themselves in their reasoning and darkness filled their minds.


Responsorial Psalm

The heavens proclaim the glory of God.

2 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the firmament proclaims the work of his hands.

3 Day talks it over with day;
night hands on the knowledge to night.

4 No speech, no words, no voice is heard –

5 but the call goes on throughout the universe,
the message is felt to the ends of the earth.
