Second Reading for Common of Holy Men and Women

Galatians 6:14-16

Summary: I boast only in Christ’s cross, through which I am separated from the world. Only becoming a new creation matters; peace and mercy are for those who follow this way.

Boasting Only in the Cross

Brothers and sisters:

May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

For neither does circumcision mean anything, nor does uncircumcision, but only a new creation.

Peace and mercy be to all who follow this rule and to the Israel of God.
