from wrath through Him.For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of

His Son,much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His Life.And not only so, but we also joy in God through OurLord Jesus Christ.Rom. 5: 8-11) 1 . Thanks be to God.

Brethren: Know ye not that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spiritof God dwelleth in you?

If any man defile the Temple of Go d , him shall God destroy; for theTemple of Go d is Holy, which Temple ye are.

Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wiseinthis world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.For the Wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written,

"He taketh the wisein their own craftiness."And again, "The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are

vain." Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your's.1 Cor. 3: 16 - 20) 1 . Thanks be to God .The Gospel:

out devils in Thy Name, and he followeth not us; and we forbad him, because hefolloweth not us."But Jesus said, "Forbid him not; for there is no man which shall do a

miracle in My Name, that can lightly speak evi of me."For he that is not against us is on ourpart."For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in My Name,because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, 'He shall not losehis reward.'"And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in Me , itis better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were castinto the sea."And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter intolife maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shallbe quenched;"Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.


11/12

11"And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter halt

into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall bequenched;

"Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched."And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out; it is better for thee to enter

into the Kingdom of God with one eye, than having two y s to be cast into hellfire;

Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched."Mark 9: 38 - 48) Praise be to Thee, OChrist.
