Scriptures for July 5, The Fifth Sunday after Pentecost
Zechariah 9:9-12 A prophecy of great hope and salvation for Jerusalem: her triumphant but humble king comes to rule.
Psalm 145:8-15  A hymn of praise to the Lord, who is mighty in deeds yet tender and compassionate.
Romans 7:15-25a Paul continues to wrestle with the question of the role of the law. Although the law is good in principle, without God’s saving act in Jesus, it only produces more sinfulness.
Matthew 11:16-19, 25-30 Jesus compares his generation to capricious children, equally displeased by the austere message of John the Baptist and the inviting message of Jesus. Yet God’s wisdom will prevail. Jesus bids all to come and find that the yoke of his teaching is easy to bear.
