Gospel: Mark 11:27-33

27 They came again to Jerusalem, and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders came to him,

28 and they began saying to him, "By what authority do you do these things? Or who gave you this authority to do these things?"

29 Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

30 The baptism of John--was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me."

31 They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we should say, 'From heaven;' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'

32 If we should say, 'From men'"--they feared the people, for all held John to really be a prophet.

33 They answered Jesus, "We don't know."

Jesus said to them, "Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things."

Jude 17, 20b-25

17 But you, beloved, remember the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.

20b keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.

21 Keep yourselves in God's love, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.

22 On some have compassion, making a distinction,

23 and some save, snatching them out of the fire with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.

24 Now to him who is able to keep them‡ from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,

25 to God our Saviour, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.


‡1:24: TR and NU read "you"
