24th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Find the Missal (Ordinary of the Mass) at 150 in Oramos Cantando/We Pray in Song

First Reading IS 50:5-9A

The Lord GOD opens my ear that I may hear; and I have not rebelled, have not turned back. I gave my back to those who beat me,

my cheeks to those who plucked my beard; my face I did not shield from buffets and spitting. The Lord GOD is my help, therefore I

am not disgraced; I have set my face like flint, knowing that I shall not be put to shame. He is near who upholds my right; if anyone

wishes to oppose me, let us appear together. Who disputes my right? Let that man confront me. See, the Lord GOD is my help; who

will prove me wrong?

Responsorial Psalm PS 116 R. I will walk before the Lord, in the land of the living.

Second Reading JAS 2:14-18

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother

or sister has nothing to wear and has no food for the day, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well, " but

you do not give them the necessities of the body, what good is it? So also faith of itself, if it does not have works, is dead. Indeed

someone might say, "You have faith and I have works." Demonstrate your faith to me without works, and I will demonstrate my

faith to you from my works.

Gospel MK 8:27-35

Jesus and his disciples set out for the villages of Caesarea Philippi. Along the way he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that I

am?" They said in reply, "John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others one of the prophets." And he asked them, "But who do you say

that I am?" Peter said to him in reply, "You are the Christ." Then he warned them not to tell anyone about him. He began to teach

them that the Son of Man must suffer greatly and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and rise

after three days. He spoke this openly. Then Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. At this he turned around and, looking at

his disciples, rebuked Peter and said, "Get behind me, Satan. You are thinking not as God does, but as human beings do." He

summoned the crowd with his disciples and said to them, "Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross,

and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save

it."

El Misal (Ordinario de la Misa) esta en Oramos Cantando/We Pray in Song a Partir de 150

Primera lectura Is 50, 5-9

En aquel entonces, dijo Isaías: "El Señor Dios me ha hecho oír sus palabras y yo no he opuesto resistencia, ni me he echado para

atrás. Ofrecí la espalda a los que me golpeaban, la mejilla a los que me tiraban de la barba. No aparté mi rostro de los insultos y

salivazos. Pero el Señor me ayuda, por eso no quedaré confundido, por eso endurecí mi rostro como roca y sé que no quedaré

avergonzado. Cercano está de mí el que me hace justicia, ¿quién luchará contra mí? ¿Quién es mi adversario? ¿Quién me acusa? Que

se me enfrente. El Señor es mi ayuda, ¿quién se atreverá a condenarme?''

Salmo Responsorial Salmo 114 R. Caminaré en la presencia del Señor.

Segunda lectura Sant 2, 14-18

Hermanos míos: ¿De qué le sirve a uno decir que tiene fe, si no lo demuestra con obras? ¿Acaso podrá salvarlo esa fe? Supongamos

que algún hermano o hermana carece de ropa y del alimento necesario para el día, y que uno de ustedes le dice: "Que te vaya bien;

abrígate y come", pero no le da lo necesario para el cuerpo, ¿de qué le sirve que le digan eso? Así pasa con la fe; si no se traduce en

obras, está completamente muerta. Quizá alguien podría decir: "Tú tienes fe y yo tengo obras. A ver cómo, sin obras, me demuestras

tu fe; yo, en cambio, con mis obras te demostraré mi fe".

Evangelio Mc 8, 27-35

En aquel tiempo, Jesús y sus discípulos se dirigieron a los poblados de Cesarea de Filipo. Por el camino les hizo esta pregunta:

"¿Quién dice la gente que soy yo?" Ellos le contestaron: "Algunos dicen que eres Juan el Bautista; otros, que Elías; y otros, que

alguno de los profetas". Entonces él les preguntó: "Y ustedes ¿quién dicen que soy yo?" Pedro le respondió: "Tú eres el Mesías". Y

él les ordenó que no se lo dijeran a nadie. Luego se puso a explicarles que era necesario que el Hijo del hombre padeciera mucho,

que fuera rechazado por los ancianos, los sumos sacerdotes y los escribas, que fuera entregado a la muerte y resucitara al tercer día.

Todo esto lo dijo con entera claridad. Entonces Pedro se lo llevó aparte y trataba de disuadirlo. Jesús se volvió, y mirando a sus

discípulos, reprendió a Pedro con estas palabras: "¡Apártate de mí, Satanás! Porque tú no juzgas según Dios, sino según los

hombres". Después llamó a la multitud y a sus discípulos, y les dijo: "El que quiera venir conmigo, que renuncie a sí mismo, que

cargue con su cruz y que me siga. Pues el que quiera salvar su vida, la perderá; pero el que pierda su vida por mí y por el Evangelio,

la salvará".
