08072016 Gospel Mt 10:16-23

Jesus said to his Apostles: “Behold, I am sending you like sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and simple as doves.

But beware of men, for they will hand you over to courts and scourge you in their synagogues, and you will be led before governors and kings for my sake as a witness before them and the pagans.

When they hand you over, do not worry about how you are to speak or what you are to say. You will be given at that moment what you are to say. For it will not be you who speak but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

Brother will hand over brother to death, and the father his child; children will rise up against parents and have them put to death. You will be hated by all because of my name, but whoever endures to the end will be saved. When they persecute you in one town, flee to another.

Amen, I say to you, you will not finish the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.”

Repleksiyon:

Uno ma’y buot ipasabot sa taglaong ni Jesus na kinahanglan kuno na magpaka-karnero an mga disipulo kon makigsandurot sila sa mga lobo (wolves)?

Para sa ako, tagpasidan’an sila ni Lord na maka-ekperiyensiya sila nan oposisyon sanan persekusyon gikan sa mga kontra sa Ebanghelyo sanan sa umalabot na kaharian ni God.

Segurado ako na amo ini’y ila makasagupa amo na waya si Jesus mag-duha-duha sa pagpasidaan dila kon mosunod sila Dija.

Pero, priblihiyo ini para sa ila sanan para dato na makasunod sa yapak nan ato Lord sanan Master na nagpakamatay para nato makab’ot an ato kadaugan kontra kan Satan, sa kasay’anan sanan sa kamatajon.

Kita dawaton ba nato an mga kalis’danan sanan mga pag-antos na amo’y mga kaiban sa ato serbisyo para kan Lord Jesus Christ?
