one day three and twenty thousand.Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were

destroyed of serpents.Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed

of the destroyer.Now al these things happened unto them for ensamples; and they are

written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man; but

God is Faithful, Who wjill not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able;but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able tobear it. (1 Cor. 10: 6 - l3) ^l. Thanks be to God.

accused unto him that he had wasted his goods."And he called him, and said unto him, 'How is it that I hear this of thee?

Give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.'"Then the steward said within himself, 'What shall I do? For my lord

taketh away from me the stewardship; I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.'I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship,

they may receive me into their houses.'"So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the

first, 'How much owest thou unto my lord?'"And he said, 'An hundred measures of oil.' And he said unto him, 'Take

thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.'"Then said he to another, 'And how much owest thou?' And he said, 'An

hundred measures of wheat.' And he said unto him, 'Take thy bill, and writefourscore.'

"And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely;for the children of this World are in their generation wiser than the children ofLight.

Hesuffered and was Buried; And the third day He rose again according to theScriptures; And ascended into Heaven; And sitteth on the Right Hand of theFather. And He shall come again with Glory to judge both the quick and thedead; Whose Kingdom shall have no end.

On Wednesday or, if it be not possible, on Thursday, the followingReadings are to be used:

the First Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle, to theThe Epistle:

Reading fromCorinthians:

Brethren: Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants toobey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of

obedience unto righteousness?


11/13

11But God be Thankjed, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed

from the heart that form jof doctrine which was delivered you.Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.

Rom. 6: 16 - 18) W. Thanks be to God.

Or the following m y be used in place of the above:

The Epistle as kept at Bee): ,Reading from the First Epistie of blessed Paul the Apostle, to the

Corinthians:Brethren: All flesh is not the same flesh; but there is one kind of flesh of

men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial; but the glory of the

celestial is one, and the giory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory ofthe Sun, and another glory of the Moon, and another glory of the stars; for onestar differeth from another star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead.

It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruptlon;It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness; it is

raised in power;It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural

body, and there is a spiritual body.

And so it is written, "The first man Adam was made a living soul; theLast Adam was made a quickening spirit."

Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural;and afterward that which is spiritual. 1 Cor. 15: 39 - 46) ^ . Thanks be toGod. , '

The Gospel:y. The Lord be With you. And with thy spirit,y. The Holy Gospel according to Luke.1. Glory be to Ijhee, O Lord.At that time: Jesus said unto His disciples:"He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much; and he

that is unjust in the leastwhois unjust also in much."If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon,

will commit to your trust the true riches?"And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall

give you that which is your own?"No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and

love the other; or ls he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannotserve God and mammon."

And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things; andthey derided Him.

them, "Ye are they which justify yourselves before men;learts; for that which is highly esteemed among men isof God." Luke 16: 10 - 15) F . Praise be to Thee,

A Reading from the First Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle, to theCorinthians:

Brethren: For as in Adam al die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.But every man in nis own order; Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that

are Christ's at His coming.Then cometh the end, when He shall have delivered up the Kingdom to

God, even the Father; when He shall have put down all rule and all authority andpower.

For He must reign, till He hath put all enemies under His Feet.The last enemy ihs i shall be destroyed is death.For He hath put 11 things under His Feet. But when He saith all things

are put under Him, it is manifest that He is excepted. Which did put all things

under H i m . jA nd when all things shall be subdued unto Him, then shall the Son alsoHimself be subject unto Him That put all things under H i m , that God may be allin all. 1 Cor. 15: 22 - 28) Thanks be to God.

but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and yourmembers as instruments of righteousness unto God.

For sin shall not have dominion over you; for ye are not under the Law.but under grace.

What then? ShaG od forbid.

Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, Hisservants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience untorighteousness?

before dinner.And the Lord said unto him, "Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside

of the cup and the plktter; but your inward part is fisU of ravening andwickedness.

Ye fools, did not He That made that which is without make that which iswithin also?

But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things areclean unto you.

"But woe unto you, Pharisees For ye tithe mint and rue and all mannerof herbs, and pass over judgment and the Love of God; these ought ye to havedone, and not to leave the other undone.

"Woe unto you, Pharisees For ye love the uppermost se ts in theSynagogues, and greetings in the markets.

"Woe unto you. Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites For ye are as graves

which appear not, and thp men that walk over them are not aware of them."Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto Him, "Master, thussaying Thou reproachest us also."

And He said, "Woe unto you also, ye lawyers For ye lade men withburdens grievous to be liornfe, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with oneof your fmgers. (Luke U: 37 - 46) ^ . Praise be to Thee, O Christ.
