神父講道 – 聖依納爵 • 羅耀拉 (司鐸) (紀念) (週二) (2018年7月31日)
恭讀聖路加福音 14:25-33
那時候,有一大夥人與耶穌同行,耶穌轉身向他們說:「如果誰來跟隨我,而不惱恨自己的父親、母親、妻子、兒女、兄弟、姊妹,甚至自己的性命,不能做我的門徒。不論誰,若不背著自己的十字架,在我後面走,不能做我的門徒。
「你們中間誰願意建造一座塔,而不先坐下籌算費用,是否有力完成呢?免得他奠基以後,竟不能完工,所有看見的人都要譏笑他:說:這個人開始建造,而不能完工。或者一個國王要去同別的國王交戰,那有不先坐下運籌一下,能否以一萬人,去抵抗那領著兩萬來攻打他的呢?如果不能,就得趁那國王離得尚遠的時候,派遣使節去求和平的條款。同樣,你們中不論是誰,如不捨棄他的一切所有,不能做我的門徒。」
—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 14:25-33
Great crowds were traveling with him, and he turned and addressed them, “If any one comes to me without hating his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. Which of you wishing to construct a tower does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see if there is enough for its completion? Otherwise, after laying the foundation and finding himself unable to finish the work the onlookers should laugh at him and say, ‘This one began to build but did not have the resources to finish.’ Or what king marching into battle would not first sit down and decide whether with ten thousand troops he can successfully oppose another king advancing upon him with twenty thousand troops? But if not, while he is still far away, he will send a delegation to ask for peace terms. In the same way, everyone of you who does not renounce all his possessions cannot be my disciple.
—The Gospel of the Lord.
