Epistle

Ephesians 2:19–3:7

Open Reader ↗

19Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

20having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone,

21in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,

22in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

1For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles—

2if indeed you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you,

3how that by revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I have briefly written already,

4by which, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ),

5which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets:

6that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ through the gospel,

7of which I became a minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the effective working of His power.

Gospel

Luke 8:1–3

Open Reader ↗

1Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him,

2and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities—Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons,

3and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others who provided for Him from their substance.
