Reading the Liturgy 13 November 2015

Part 1: Wis 13: 1-9
It would be foolish because the nature of all those who do not know God at all; they were not able to know Him who is from the visible stuff! Although dealing with his works The artists they do not know. Instead they regard as a god mastery of the universe
is a fire or wind or storm, clusters of stars, or turbulent water, or torch-lights in the sky. If to enjoy their beauty to think of gods, then they should understand how much more noble Lord of all of them. For the Father of the beauty that is created. If they get fascinated by the power and the power, then they should be aware, therefore, how much power Shaping things. Because people can get to know the Creator by comparing the greatness and beauty of his creations.
However, in this case they are only a little harm, perhaps because they only lost, but their search for God and trying to find him. Due to busy watching the works of God and investigated, they were just overwhelmed by what they see, because it's beautiful all visible. But however they can not be excused. For if they were able to know that much, so it can investigate the universe,
why they do not first find the Lord of all of it?
Thus saith the Lord.

Psalms: Psalm 19: 2-5
The heavens declare the glory of God.
* The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands; day one tells the other day, and the evening one conveying knowledge to the following night.
* Although not speak, and not uttering a sound, but on the whole earth bergaunglah echoes, and their message to the ends of the earth.

Gospel: Luke 17: 26-37
On one occasion Jesus said to the disciples of His, "As in the days of Noah, so also later in the day the Son of Man. In the days of Noah were people eating and drinking, marrying and given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark . Then the flood came and destroyed them all. Similarly, what happened in the days of Lot. They ate and drank,
buying and selling, planting and building, until the day that Lot went out of Sodom. Then the rain came down fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Such is the case later in the day the Son of Man is revealed themselves.
On that day, whoever was at the top ventilation in the house, let him not go down to pick up his belongings in the house. Similarly, being in the field, let him go home. Remember Lot's wife!
Whoever tried to preserve his life will lose it,
and whoever loses his life will save it.
I tell you: On that night if there are two people in the bed,
one will be taken and the other left. If there were two women who were jointly refine, one will be taken and the other left. "The student then asked," Where, Lord? "Jesus answered,
"Where the corpse is, there the vultures will gather."
Thus the Gospel of the Lord.

Afterthought
Many people do not want to learn from experience. In the days of Noah and the people of Sodom - Gomorrah, many do not care about God, eating and drinking, drunk drinking, mating and mated at will. God's wrath and they perish. This time is no different. Rampant crime, corruption insistent insistently, unbridled exploitation, Staying wait for the coming of God's wrath.
Day will be a day of redemption for those who believe and doom for those who do not believe. That day will come suddenly so there will be no more time for people to prepare themselves, to change direction, to settle unfinished, and others. It was declared Jesus to the image. "On that day, whoever was at the top ventilation in the house, let him not go down to pick up his belongings in the house. Similarly, being in the field, let him go home. "Therefore, as Lot's wife turned into salt due to turn round and not willing to leave Sodom, the disciple of Jesus' disciples must be firm in their faith and do not often change their minds. A double minded to lose, because of safety or misfortune depends on the decision and determination. Two people who were busy in the same case will meet a different groove. Unbelievers will be abandoned and destroyed, the faithful will be taken God and brought into the home of his communion with the Father.

Items to contemplation
Believe in Allah alone attitude that should be maintained continuously. People are not saved because of this and that, but because it has faith. Those who believe not much feared by many cases, he believes, that God will save and give life as expected,

Prayer
O God, send thy Holy Spirit, so that we are constantly on guard duty in your presence, so when it came time you come, we are your people were ready to welcome your kingdom. Amen.
