Friday, September 17 : Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 12,31-36.
Now is the judgement of this world; now the ruler of this world will be driven out.
And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.’
He said this to indicate the kind of death he was to die.

Jesus said to them, ‘The light is with you for a little longer. Walk while you have the light, so that the darkness may not overtake you. If you walk in the darkness, you do not know where you are going.
While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you may become children of light.’ After Jesus had said this, he departed and hid from them.
