1. He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Chosen One, the Messiah of God.

Suggested Songs for November 17, 2013 Mass

Repost from JR Medina's post

17 November 2013
33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

We are in Year C.
Liturgical Color: Green

Readings:

1R: 2 Malachi 3:1-20: The prophet Malachi warns the proud and the evildoers that they will be put to fire (hell), and assures those who fear the Lord of the sun's healing rays (heaven).

RP: 97 or 98: The Lord comes to rule the people with fairness. 

2R: 2 Thessalonians 3:7-12: Laziness is to be condemned. Those who are unwilling to work should not eat. 

G: Luke 21:5-19. 27-38 is about the signs of the end. Jesus warns that there will be some who will pretend to be Him and prophesy that the end is coming. They are mistaken. Terrible things will happen, but this is not the end. These terrible things include earthquakes, famine, persecution, and martyrdom. By your perseverance you will secure your lives. Jesus assures us of His presence through all these. 1R is perfected here.
