1st Reading – 1 John 3:11-21
Beloved:
11 This is the announcement that you heard from the beginning: that you should love one another.
12 Do not be like Cain, who was of the evil one, and who killed his brother. And why did he kill him? Because his own works were wicked, but his brother’s works were just.
13 If the world hates you, brothers, do not be surprised.
14 We know that we have passed from death to life. For we love as brothers. Whoever does not love, abides in death.
15 Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer. And you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding within him.
16 We know the love of God in this way: because he laid down his life for us. And so, we must lay down our lives for our brothers.
17 Whoever possesses the goods of this world, and sees his brother to be in need, and yet closes his heart to him: in what way does the love of God abide in him?
18 My little sons, let us not love in words only, but in works and in truth.
19 In this way, we will know that we are of the truth, and we will commend our hearts in his sight.
20 For even if our heart reproaches us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows all things.
21 Dearly beloved, if our heart does not reproach us, we can have confidence toward God;
Responsorial Psalm – Psalms 100:1B-2, 3, 4, 5
R. (2a) Let all the earth cry out to God with joy.
1B Sing joyfully to the LORD, all you lands;
2 serve the LORD with gladness;
come before him with joyful song.
R. Let all the earth cry out to God with joy.
3 Know that the LORD is God;
he made us, his we are;
his people, the flock he tends.
R. Let all the earth cry out to God with joy.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
his courts with praise;
Give thanks to him; bless his name.
R. Let all the earth cry out to God with joy.
5 The LORD is good:
the LORD, whose kindness endures forever,
and his faithfulness, to all generations.
R. Let all the earth cry out to God with joy.
Alleluia
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
A holy day has dawned upon us.
Come, you nations, and adore the Lord.
Today a great light has come upon the earth.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel – John 1:43-51
43 Jesus decided to go to Galilee, and he found Philip. And he said to him: Follow me.
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip found Nathanael and said to him: We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets did write, Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth.
46 And Nathanael said to him: Can anything good come from Nazareth? Philip said to him: Come and see.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him: and he said of him: Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no duplicity.
48 Nathanael said to him: How do you know me?” Jesus answered and said to him: Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.
49 Nathanael answered him, and said: Rabbi, you are the Son of God, you are the King of Israel.
50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than this.”
51 And he said to him: Amen, amen I say to you, you shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
