Stand in the fear of God and listen to the Holy Gospel.
A reading from the Gospel according to our teacher Saint Mark the Evangelist.
May His Blessings be with us all.
Mark 10 : 17 - 30
Chapter 10
17 | Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?" |
18 | So Jesus said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. |
19 | You know the commandments: "Do not commit adultery,'"Do not murder,'"Do not steal,'"Do not bear false witness,'"Do not defraud,'"Honor your father and your mother."' |
20 | And he answered and said to Him, "Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth." |
21 | Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me." |
22 | But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. |
23 | Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!" |
24 | And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God! |
25 | It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." |
26 | And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, "Who then can be saved?" |
27 | But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible." |
28 | Then Peter began to say to Him, "See, we have left all and followed You." |
29 | So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's, |
30 | who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time--houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions--and in the age to come, eternal life. |
And Glory be to God forever.
