Gospel : John 6:37-40

37 All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. He who comes to me I will in no way throw out.

38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

39 This is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.

40 This is the will of the one who sent me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day."

The Wisdom of Solomon 3:1-9

1 But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God,
and no torment will touch them.

2 In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died.
Their departure was considered a disaster,

3 and their travel away from us ruin,
but they are in peace.

4 For even if in the sight of men they are punished,
their hope is full of immortality.

5 Having borne a little chastening, they will receive great good;
because God tested them, and found them worthy of himself.

6 He tested them like gold in the furnace,
and he accepted them as a whole burnt offering.

7 In the time of their visitation they will shine.
They will run back and forth like sparks among stubble.

8 They will judge nations and have dominion over peoples.
The Lord will reign over them forever.

9 Those who trust him will understand truth.
The faithful will live with him in love,
because grace and mercy are with his chosen ones.

Romans 6:3-9

3 Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.

5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;

6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.

7 For he who has died has been freed from sin.

8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him,

9 knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!
