Tuesday, September 3 : Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 18,18-23.
A certain ruler asked him, ‘Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?’
Jesus said to him, ‘Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone.
You know the commandments: “You shall not commit adultery; You shall not murder; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; Honour your father and mother.” ’
He replied, ‘I have kept all these since my youth.’
When Jesus heard this, he said to him, ‘There is still one thing lacking. Sell all that you own and distribute the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.’
But when he heard this, he became sad; for he was very rich.
