Can someone help me find the Gospel reading for Vespers on Saturday, July 2, 2005?...I was interested in re-reading over to myself but I have no idea where to find it...Thanks ahead of time! Peace and God Bless!
Thanks for replying biboy...Yeah I know it passed, but when it was being read I heard some things that I want to read over...I get really distracted lol...
8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer; Give ear, O God of Jacob!. 4 Blessed are those who dwell in Your house; They will still be praising You. [NKJV] Alleluia
and the Gospel wasMatthew 5:34-48
But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; 35 nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 But let your `Yes' be `Yes,' and your `No,' `No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one. 38 You have heard that it was said, `An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.' 39 But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. 40 If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also. 41 And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. 42 Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away. 43 You have heard that it was said, `You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, 45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so? 48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. [NKJV] Glory is due to our God to the age of all ages. Amen
