Gospel of the Day – Matthew 16:1-12

“"Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came to him, and to test him they asked him to show them a sign from heaven.".

But he answered and said to them, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’.

And in the morning: "Today there will be a storm, for the sky is a threatening red." Hypocrites, you know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times?

An evil and adulterous generation asks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. Then he left them and went away.

And when his disciples had crossed over to the other side, they had forgotten to bring bread. And Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”.

And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "It is because we brought no bread.".
And Jesus, perceiving this, said: “Why are you reasoning among yourselves, you of little faith, about having brought no bread?”

Do you still not understand, nor do you remember the five loaves of bread for the five thousand men, and how many baskets you gathered?

Nor of the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets did you gather? How is it that you do not understand that I was not speaking to you about bread, but that you should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?

Then they understood that he was not telling them to beware of the yeast used in bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees..

Matthew 16:1-12

The Importance of the Gospel of the Day

As Christians, we place a high value on God’s Word. It is through belief in the Word of God that we are saved (Rm 10:17). The Word of God then becomes our guide for life in all circumstances, whether in employment, in social life or even in the family circle. Our aspiration should be to live by the Word of God.

I would like to receive new Blessings?

Every day a beautiful text from the word of God for you to meditate on and talk to the Father.
