Seventh Sunday after Pentecost July 23, 2017

Introit Ps 46:2: All you peoples clap your hands, shout to God with cries of gladness. Ps 46:3: For the Lord, the Most High, the awesome, is the great King over all the earth. V. Glory be to the Father... All you peoples clap your hands… Collect O God, Whose providence never fails to set things in order, we humbly beseech You to remove from us whatever is harmful and grant whatever is for our benefit. Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord. R. Amen. Lesson Rom 6:19-23: Brethren: I speak in a human way because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you yielded your members as slaves of uncleanness and iniquity unto iniquity, so now yield your members as slaves of justice unto sanctification. For when you were slaves of sin, you were free as regards justice. But what fruit had you then from those things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of these things is death. But now set free from sin and become slaves to God, you have your fruit unto sanctification, and as your end, life everlasting. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is life everlasting in Christ Jesus our Lord. Gradual Ps 33:12, 6: Come, children, hear me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. V. Look to Him that you may be radiant with joy, and your faces may not blush with shame. Alleluia, alleluia. Ps 46:2: V. All you peoples, clap your hands, shout to God with cries of gladness. Alleluia. Gospel Matt. 7:15-21: At that time, Jesus said to His disciples: Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. By their fruits you will know them. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree

bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore, by their fruits you will know them. Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of My Father in heaven shall enter the kingdom of heaven. Offertory Dan 3:40: As though it were holocausts of rams and bullocks, or thousands of fat lambs, so let our sacrifice be in Your presence today, that it may please You; for those who trust in You cannot be put to shame, O Lord. Secret O God, You Who have given us in one perfect sacrifice the fulfillment of the various sacrifices made under the Old Law, accept these sacrificial gifts offered You by Your devoted servants, and make them holy as You did the gifts of Abel, so that what each one of us has offered in praise of Your majesty may profit for the salvation of all. Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord. R. Amen. Communion Ps 30:3: Incline Your ear to me, make haste to deliver me. Post Communion May Your healing action, O Lord, mercifully rid us of our evil inclinations and lead us to do good. Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord. R. Amen.

The gift of God is life everlasting. But to deserve it, we must, as good trees, bring forth good fruit. Pious words are not sufficient, we must yield the substantial fruit of good deeds.
