Year 2 Weekday Reading. (13/4/10)
Tuesday of the Second Week of Easter
Reading 1
The
community of believers was of one heart and mind,
and no
one claimed that any of his possessions was his own,
but they
had everything in common.
With
great power the Apostles bore witness
to the
resurrection of the Lord Jesus,
and great
favor was accorded them all.
There
was no needy person among them,
for those
who owned property or houses would sell them,
bring the
proceeds of the sale,
and put
them at the feet of the Apostles,
and they
were distributed to each according to need.
Thus
Joseph, also named by the Apostles Barnabas
(which is translated Ason of
encouragement”),
a Levite,
a Cypriot by birth,
sold a
piece of property that he owned,
then brought the money and put it at the feet of the
Apostles

Gospel
Jesus
said to Nicodemus:
“‘You
must be born from above.’
The
wind blows where it wills, and you can hear the sound it makes,
but you
do not know where it comes from or where it goes;
so it is
with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
Nicodemus
answered and said to him,
‘How
can this happen?”
Jesus
answered and said to him,
“You
are the teacher of Israel and you do not understand this?
Amen,
amen, I say to you,
we speak
of what we know and we testify to what we have seen,
but you
people do not accept our testimony.
If I
tell you about earthly things and you do not believe,
how will
you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?
No
one has gone up to heaven
except
the one who has come down from heaven, the Son of Man.
And
just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert,
so must
the Son of Man be lifted up,
so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal
life.”
