In those days John the Baptist came,
preaching in the wilderness of Judea and saying,
“Repent, for
the kingdom of heaven has come near.”
This is he who was spoken of through the
prophet Isaiah:
“A voice of one calling in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the Lord,
make
straight paths for him.’”
Matthew 3:1-3
The lectionary readings for this second Sunday of Advent are:
Psalm- Psalm 72:1-7;18-19
Second Reading- Romans 15:4-13
Gospel Reading- Matthew 3:1-12
The collect for this Sunday is:
Almighty God,
you sent your servant John the Baptist
to prepare your people to welcome the Messiah.
Inspire the ministers and stewards of your truth
to turn our disobedient hearts to you,
that when the Christ shall come again to be our judge
we may stand with confidence before his glory;
who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
