Readings from the Bible for the Roman Catholic liturgy in the ordinary form

First Sunday of Lent

Nativity (William Congdon, 1960, © William Congdon)
1 Pet 3:21-22

This prefigured baptism, which saves you now. It is not a removal of dirt from the body but an appeal to God for a clear conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers subject to him.
