Theme: Jesus’ Royal Messiahship of both Jews and Gentiles
1st
Reading: Isaiah,
chapter 60: 1 – 6
Jerusalem is portrayed as
the city to which all the nations of the earth shall converge. Jerusalem shall be their destination because
God’s own light shines forth from it.
2nd Reading: Paul’s
letter to the Ephesians, chapter
3: 2 – 3, 5 –6
The long-kept secret of God is that non-Jews shall,
through the light of Christ, become joint heirs with the Jews, because we all
share a common Christ-centred destiny.
Gospel
Reading: Matthew, chapter 2: 1 – 12
The
Three Wise Men followed the light of the Star, and found Jesus. It is our turn, dear Brothers and Sisters, to
follow the light of Jesus, with thankful gifts from our hearts.
