GETTING READY FOR SUNDAY: PREVIEW OF THE READINGS
What is the essential message which the Church proclaims in and through her liturgical worship? The essense of the message is contained in today’s Epistle lesson where St. John writes, “ And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us.” ( 1 John 3.23). The belief, the recognition concerning Jesus Christ as the revelation of the love of God is the starting point of the Christian life. That we should catch a glimpse of that revelation and be refreshed and elevated by it, is the first point of our liturgical celebrations, wherein we are invited to “eat the bread” of the kingdom of God. But as we hear in today’s Gospel lesson, many of those invited to the dinner banquet, couldn’t be bothered or were otherwise occupied, as a consequence of which the owner of the house instructed his servants to invite poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame to come and “taste of his dinner.” In this season of Trinity we are invited to “taste and see how good the Lord is,” to be nourished in our faith, and to find ourselves transformed into lovers of God and our brother. This love doesn’t just happen, and is not simply a matter of feeling. It is a commandment, which is fulfilled in the laying down our lives for each other in the Church. In this way God lives in us and we in Him.
THE LESSON: 1 John 3:13-24

GETTING READY FOR SUNDAY: PREVIEW OF THE READINGS
With the First Sunday after Trinity, we are launched on the second half/ semester of the church calendar! In our Epistle reading for today, St. John gives us a review of what we have seen and discovered in our worship and preaching in our first “semester” from Advent through Christmas, Epiphany, Lent and Easter: “In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins.” So what’s in store for us in the second semester? John writes, “Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No man has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.” In our Gospel lesson today, Jesus tells the parable of Dives ( the rich man) and Lazarus which comes to us a cautionary of tale of someone who did not receive and embody the love of God…with catastrophic results.
THE LESSON: 1 John 4:7-21

Today we come to Trinity Sunday in the church calendar, which provides us with the answer to the all important question, “ In light of all that the Church has shown us concerning the Advent, the Birth, the Baptism, the preaching, the teaching, and miracles , the suffering, death and resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ, and the sending of the Holy Spirit…Who is God?” God is the Father, who is always with His Son and always with His Holy Spirit. God is communion of love of the persons of the Trinity.

Today we celebrate the Feast of Pentecost, and the presence, power, and work of the Holy Spirit in our lives in the special anointing for personal renewal that will take place at the beginning of today’s service. The Holy Spirit is the gift of God to those who align themselves with Jesus through obedience to His commandments. It is the Holy Spirit through whom we receive the spirit of sonship whereby we know ourselves deeply loved by God as our Father, even as we participate in the sufferings of His Son, Jesus Christ. It is the Holy Spirit who also gives us peace in the midst of our troubles.
THE LESSON : Romans 8:14-17

This is the Sunday after the Ascension, where the Church invites us to maintain emotional and spiritual sobriety in the face of the end or the goal of human history and our lives that has drawn near to us in the person of Jesus Christ. Ascensiontide is a time of prayerful expectation for the celebration of the Feast of Pentecost next Sunday and the fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the gifts which He bestows upon us.
