神父講道 – 常年期第十五週 (週一) (2018年7月16日)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 10:34-11:1

那時候,耶穌對他的門徒說:「你們不要以為我來,是為把平安帶到地上;我來不是為帶平安,而是帶刀劍,因為我來,是為叫人脫離自己的父親,女兒脫離自己的母親,兒媳脫離自己的婆母;所以,人的仇敵,就是自己的家人。誰愛父親或母親超過我,不配是我的;誰愛兒子或女兒超過我,不配是我的。誰不背起自己的十字架跟隨我,不配是我的。誰獲得自己的性命,必要喪失性命;誰為我的緣故,喪失了自己的性命,必要獲得性命。誰接納你們,就是接納我;誰接納我,就是接納那派遣我來的。誰接納一位先知,因他是先知,將領受先知的賞報;誰接納一位義人,因他是義人,將領受義人的賞報。誰若只給這些小子中的一個,一杯涼水喝,因他是門徒,我實在告訴你們:這人決失不了他的賞報。」
耶穌囑咐完了他的十二門徒,就從那裏去了,為在他們的城裏施教宣講。」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 10:34-11:1

Jesus said to his Apostles: “Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth. I have come to bring not peace but the sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and one’s enemies will be those of his household.
“Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
“Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me. Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever receives a righteous man because he is righteous will receive a righteous man’s reward. And whoever gives only a cup of cold water to one of these little ones to drink because he is a disciple– amen, I say to you, he will surely not lose his reward.”
When Jesus finished giving these commands to his Twelve disciples,
