Djela apostolska 10: 25-26, 34-35, 44-48

10:25 I to se desilo, when Peter had entered, Cornelius went to meet him. And falling before his feet, he reverenced.

10:26 Ali zaista, Peter, lifting him up, rekao je: “Rise up, for I also am only a man.”

10:34 Onda, Peter, opening his mouth, rekao je: “I have concluded in truth that God is not a respecter of persons.

10:35 But within every nation, whoever fears him and works justice is acceptable to him.

10:44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell over all of those who were listening to the Word.

10:45 And the faithful of the circumcision, who had arrived with Peter, were astonished that the grace of the Holy Spirit was also poured out upon the Gentiles.

10:46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and magnifying God.

10:47 Then Peter responded, “How could anyone prohibit water, so that those who have received the Holy Spirit would not be baptized, just as we also have been?”

10:48 And he ordered them to be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then they begged him to remain with them for some days.

The First Letter of Saint John 4: 7-10

4:7 Most beloved, let us love one another. For love is of God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

4:8 Whoever does not love, does not know God. For God is love.

4:9 The love of God was made apparent to us in this way: that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, so that we might live through him.

4:10 In this is love: not as if we had loved God, but that he first loved us, and so he sent his Son as a propitiation for our sins.

 

Jevanđelje

Sveto jevanđelje po Jovanu 15: 9-17

15:9 Kao što me je Otac voleo, tako da sam te voleo. Ostani u mojoj ljubavi.

15:10 Ako se držiš mojih propisa, ostaćeš u mojoj ljubavi, kao što sam i ja držao zapovesti svog Oca i ostajem u njegovoj ljubavi.

15:11 Ove stvari sam ti govorio, da moja radost bude u tebi, i vaša radost može biti ispunjena.

15:12 Ovo je moje pravilo: da volite jedno drugo, kao što sam i ja tebe voleo.

15:13 Niko nema veće ljubavi od ove: da je život svoj položio za svoje prijatelje.

15:14 Vi ste moji prijatelji, ako uradiš ono što ti ja naredim.

15:15 Neću vas više zvati slugama, jer sluga ne zna šta njegov Gospodar radi. Ali ja sam vas nazvao prijateljima, jer sve što sam čuo od svog Oca, Ja sam vam rekao.

15:16 Nisi me izabrao, ali ja sam izabrao tebe. I ja sam te imenovao, tako da možete izaći i donijeti plod, i tako da vaš plod može trajati. Onda sve što ste tražili od Oca u moje ime, on će vam dati.

15:17 Ovo ti naređujem: da volite jedno drugo.
