Here are some of the themes that we find in the Mass readings for the 6th Sunday of Easter.
1st Reading – Acts of the Apostles 15:1-2,22-29
The question arises if a person has to strictly follow Jewish law in order to follow Jesus and be saved.The apostles and elders gather in Jerusalem and determine that the Gospel can be preached to all people.“O God, let all the nations praise you!”All people rejoice among the nations for the salvation that comes from God.2nd Reading – Revelation 21:10-14,22-23
The heavenly city of Jerusalem is seen in all its gleaming splendor.The city has no need of sun or moon, for the Lamb of God is the lamp that gives it light.Jesus asks the Father to send the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, to teach and remind the disciples.The Lord then gives his disciples peace that cannot be found in the world, so that they are not troubled or afraid.Mass Readings – 6th Sunday of Easter (#57)
