Wednesday, March 20 : Holy Gospel according to Saint John 10,22-38.

And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem: and it was winter.
And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.
The Jews therefore came round about him and said to him: How long dost thou hold our souls in suspense? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
Jesus answered them: I speak to you, and you believe not: the works that I do in the name of my Father, they give testimony of me.
But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.
My sheep hear my voice. And I know them: and they follow me.
And I give them life everlasting: and they shall not perish for ever. And no man shall pluck them out of my hand.
That which my Father hath given me is greater than all: and no one can snatch them out of the hand of my Father.
I and the Father are one.
The Jews then took up stones to stone him.
Jesus answered them: Many good works I have shewed you from my Father. For which of those works do you stone me?
The Jews answered him: For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy: and because that thou. being a, man, makest thyself God.
Jesus answered them: Is it not written in your law: I said, you are gods?
If he called them gods to whom the word of God was spoken; and the scripture cannot be broken:
Do you say of him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world: Thou blasphemest; because I said: I am the Son of God?
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
But if I do, though you will not believe me, believe the works: that you may know and believe that the Father is in me and I in the Father.
