SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - 23rd Sunday
DESCRIPTION:A reading from \nST JOHN CHRYSOSTOM \n◊◊◊ \nThe Apostle says: Whether you eat or drink\, or whatever you do\, do it all \nfor the glory of God. You will be doing everything for the glory of God if\, when \nyou leave this place\, you make yourselves responsible for saving a brother or \nsister\, not just by accusing and rebuking him or her\, but also by advising and \nencouraging\, and by pointing out the harm done by worldly amusements\, and \nthe profit and help that come from our instruction. You will also be preparing \nfor yourself a double reward\, since as well as greatly furthering your own \nsalvation\, you will be endeavoring to heal a fellow member of Christ’s body. It is \nthe Church’s pride\, it is the Savior’s command\, not to be concerned only about \nour own welfare\, but about our neighbor’s also. \nThink to what high honor you raise yourself when you regard someone \nelse’s salvation as a matter of extreme importance. As far as is humanly possible \nyou imitate God Himself\, for listen to what he says through the prophet: \n“Whoever leads another from wrong to right will be as my own mouth.” In other \nwords\, “Whoever tries to save those that are negligent\, and to snatch them from \nthe jaws of the devil\, is imitating me as far as a human being can.” What other \nwork can equal this? Of all good deeds this is the greatest; of all virtue this is the \nsummit. \nAnd this is perfectly reasonable. Christ shed his own blood for our \nsalvation; and Paul\, speaking of those who give scandal and wound the \nconsciences of people seeing them\, cried out: Because of your knowledge a \nweak brother or sister is destroyed – someone for whom Christ died! So if your \nLord shed his blood for that person\, surely it is right for each of us to offer at \nleast some words of encouragement and to extend a helping hand to those who \nthrough laxity have fallen into the snares of the devil. \nBut I am quite certain that you will do this out of the tender love you bear \nyour own members\, and that you will make every effort to bring your neighbors \nback to our common Mother\, because I know that through the grace of God you \nare able to admonish others with wisdom.
