First
Letter of John 5:5-13.
Who (indeed) is the victor over the world
but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
This is the one who came through water and blood, Jesus Christ, not by water alone, but by
water and blood. The Spirit is the one that testifies, and the Spirit is truth.
So there are three that testify,
the Spirit, the water, and the blood, and the three are of one accord.
If we accept human testimony, the testimony of God is surely greater.
Now the testimony of God is this, that he has testified on behalf of his Son.
Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within himself.
Whoever does not believe God has made him a liar by not believing the testimony God has given about
his Son.
And this is the testimony: God gave us eternal
life, and this life is in his Son.
Whoever possesses
the Son has life; whoever does not possess the Son of God does not have life.
I write these things to you so that you may know that you have eternal
life, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.
Psalms
147:12-13.14-15.19-20.
Glorify the LORD, Jerusalem; Zion, offer
praise to your God,
Who has strengthened the bars of
your gates, blessed your children within you,
Brought
peace to your borders, and filled you with finest wheat.
The LORD sends a command to earth; his word runs swiftly!
The LORD also proclaims his
word to Jacob, decrees and laws to Israel.
God has not
done this for other nations; of such laws they know nothing. Hallelujah!
Letter to the Ephesians
3:2-3a.5-6.
If, as I suppose, you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me
for your benefit,
(namely, that) the mystery was made
known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly earlier.
which was not made known to human beings in other generations as it has now been revealed
to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit,
that
the Gentiles are coheirs, members of the same body, and copartners in the promise in Christ Jesus
through the gospel.
