Give
the Lord glory and honor.

Psalm
96

THEME
OF OUR LITURGY
-
|
|
In harmony
with the words of Isaiah and
Paul, Jesus teaches us that God
is the ultimate source of all
power.
|
First
Reading: Isaiah 45:1,4-6
The Lord said to Cyrus, his anointed,
“I am the Lord, there is not
other”.
Second
Reading: 1 Thessalonians 1:1-5b
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy to the
church of the Thessalonians: We thank God
always for all of you.
Gospel:
Matthew 22:15-21
Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and
to God what is God’s.
|
|
In
this Sunday’s
Gospel reading the
Pharisees engage Jesus
in a power struggle over
whether Jews should show
tribute to Caesar by
paying taxes.
Jesus’ response
puts this and every
struggle for power into
perspective. In harmony
with the words of Isaiah
and Paul, Jesus teaches
us that God is the
ultimate source of all
power—the power of
earthly rulers, the
Pharisees, Jesus, the
Church, and the power
within
ourselves.
