Reading 3, Heb 13:7-10 : Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings
| 7 | Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God; consider the outcome of their life, and imitate their faith. |
| 8 | Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever. |
| 9 | Do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings; for it is well that the heart be strengthened by grace, not by foods, which have not benefited their adherents. |
| 10 | We have an altar from which those who serve the tent have no right to eat. |
Gospel, Mt 24:45-51 : The faithful or the unfaithful slave
| 45 | "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time? |
| 46 | Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing. |
| 47 | Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions. |
| 48 | But if that wicked servant says to himself, `My master is delayed,' |
| 49 | and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eats and drinks with the drunken, |
| 50 | the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, |
| 51 | and will punish him, and put him with the hypocrites; there men will weep and gnash their teeth. |
