Theme: “They have Moses and the prophets. Let them hear them”
1st Reading: Amos, Chapter 6: 1a, 4-7
The prophet Amos criticises the
lack of compassion by the wealthy for the poor in our society. With time, he
says, their wealth would be a thing of the past.
2nd Reading: 1Timothy, Chapter 6: 11-16
Paul reminds Timothy, and all of us,
to live virtuous lives and to continually renew our baptismal vows until the
end of time.
Gospel Reading: Luke, Chapter 16: 19-31
The fate that befell the rich man
in the parable should remind us that those who are the most insignificant
socially may be the ones who have a value in God’s kingdom. It is unwise to
ignore the Lazarus in our community.
