SCRIPTURE READINGS FOR SUNDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2013

APOSTOLIC READING

Blessed are You, O Lord, the God of our Fathers.

For you are just in all you have done.

The reading is from the Letter of St. Paul to Titus (3: 8-15).

Titus, my son, the saying is true, and I desire you to insist on

these things, so that those who have believed in God may be

careful to apply themselves to good deeds; these are excellent

and profitable to people. But avoid foolish controversies,

genealogies, dissentions, and quarrels over the Law, for they

are unprofitable and futile.

As for a factious man, after admonishing him once or twice,

have nothing more to do with him, knowing that such a person

is perverted and sinful; he is self condemned.

When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, make every effort to

meet me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter

there. Help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way, taking

care that they lack nothing. And let our people learn to apply

themselves to good deeds, so as to help cases of urgent need,

and not to be unfruitful. All my companions greet you. Greet

those who love us in the faith. The grace of God be with all of

you. Amen.

THE GOSPEL READING: FOURTH SUNDAY OF LUKE

SUNDAY OF

THE HOLY FATHERS OF THE SEVENTH ECUMENICAL

COUNCIL

THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER

The reading is from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke (8:5-15).

The Lord said this parable: "A sower went out to sow his seed; and

as he sowed, some fell along the path, and was trodden under foot,

and the birds of the air devoured it. And some fell on the rock; and

as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. And

some fell among thorns; and the thorns grew with it and choked it.

And some fell into good soil and grew, and yielded a hundredfold."

And when his disciples asked him what this parable meant, he said,

"To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of

God; but for others they are in parables, so that seeing they may not

see, and hearing they may not understand.

Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. The ones

along the path are those who have heard; then the devil comes and

takes away the word from their hearts, that they may not believe and

be saved. And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear

the word, receive it with joy; but these have no root, they believe for

a while and in time of temptation fall away.

And as for what fell among the thorns, they are those who hear, but

as they go on their way they are choked by the cares and riches and

pleasures of life, and their fruit does not mature. And as for that in

the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an

honest and good heart, and bring forth fruit with patience. As he

said these things, he cried out "He, who has ears to hear, let him
