Gospel of March 11, 2021
Gospel of the day 11 March 2021: Vigilance! But, three criteria, huh! Don't confuse the truth. Jesus fights against the devil: the first criterion. Second criterion: whoever is not with Jesus is against Jesus. There are no half-hearted attitudes. Third criterion: vigilance over our heart, because the devil is cunning. It is never cast away forever! Only the last day will be (Pope Francis, Santa Marta, 11 October 2013)
From the book of the prophet Geremìa Jer 7,23-28 Thus says the Lord: «This I commanded them:“ Listen to my voice, and I will be your God and you will be my people; always walk on the path that I will prescribe to you, so that you may be happy ”.
Gospel of March 11, 2021: But they neither listened nor listened to my word; rather, they stubbornly proceeded according to their wicked heart and, instead of turning to me, they turned their backs on me.
Since your fathers left Egypt until today, I have sent you all my servants, the prophets, with assiduous care; but they did not listen to me or listen to me, on the contrary they made their neck hard, becoming worse than their fathers. You will tell them all these things, but they will not listen to you; you will call them, but they will not answer you. Then you will say to them: This is the nation that does not listen to the voice of the Lord its God, nor does it accept correction. Fidelity has disappeared, it has been banished from their mouth. "
Gospel of March 11, 2021: From the Gospel according to Luke
From the Gospel according to Luke Lk 11,14: 23-XNUMX At that time, Jesus was casting out a devil who was mute. When the devil came out, the dumb man began to speak and the crowds were amazed. But some said, "It is through Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons, that he casts out demons." Others then, to test him, asked him for a sign from heaven.
Knowing their intentions, he said, “Every kingdom divided into itself falls apart and one house falls on the other. Now, even if satan is divided within himself, how will his kingdom stand? You say that I cast out demons through Beelzebul. But if I cast out the demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? That is why they will be your judges. But if I cast out demons with God's finger, then the kingdom of God has come to you. When a strong, well-armed man guards his palace, what he possesses is safe. But if someone stronger than him comes and wins him, he snatches away the weapons in which he trusted and divides the spoils. Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters ».
