| Lectio Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Philippénses Philipp 3:7-12 Fratres: Quæ mihi fuérunt lucra, hæc arbitrátus sum propter Christum defriménta. Verúmtamen exístimo ómnia detriméntum esse propter eminéntem sciéntiam Iesu Christi, Dómini mei: propter quem ómnia detriméntum feci et árbitror ut stércora, ut Christum lucrifáciam et invéniar in illo, non habens meam iustítiam, quæ ex lege est, sed illam, quæ ex fide est Christi Iesu: quæ ex Deo est iustítia in fide, ad cognoscéndum illum, et virtútem resurrectiónis eius, et societátem passiónum illíus: configurátus morti eius: si quo modo occúrram ad resurrectiónem, quæ est ex mórtuis: non quod iam accéperim aut iam perféctus sim: sequor autem, si quo modo comprehéndam, in quo et comprehénsus sum a Christo Iesu. ℟. Deo grátias. | Lesson Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Philippians Phil 3:7-12 Brethren: The things that were gain to me, these, for the sake of Christ, I have counted loss. Nay more, I count everything loss because of the excelling knowledge of Jesus Christ, my Lord. For His sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and I count them as dung that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having a justice of my own, which is from the Law, but that which is from faith in Christ, the justice from God based upon faith; so that I may know Him and the power of His Resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings: become like to Him in death, in the hope that somehow I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained this, or already have been made perfect, but I press on hoping that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has laid hold of me. ℟. Thanks be to God. |
