1 Thessalonians 4:14-17 with 1 Corinthians 15:50-57

THE FIRST EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE
THESSALONIANS.
CHAPTER 4

14 For if we believe that Jesus died and
rose again, even so them also which sleep
in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word
of the Lord, that we which are alive and
remain unto the coming of the Lord shall
not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend
from heaven with a shout, with the voice
of the archangel, and with the trump of
God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain
shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and
so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with
these words.

THE
FIRST EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE
CORINTHIANS.
CHAPTER 15:

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and
blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God;
neither doth corruption inherit
incorruption.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We
shall not all sleep, but we shall all be
changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an
eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall
sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on
incorruption, and this mortal must put on
immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put
on incorruption, and this mortal shall have
put on immortality, then shall be brought
to pass the saying that is written, Death is
swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave,
where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the
strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us
the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

THE FIRST EPISTLE GENERAL OF JOHN.

CHAPTER 3

BEHOLD, what manner of love the Father
hath bestowed upon us, that we should be
called the sons of God: therefore the world
knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God,
and it doth not yet appear what we shall
be: but we know that, when he shall
appear, we shall be like him; for we shall
see him as he is.
5 And ye know that he was manifested to
take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

CHAPTER 3:

20 For our conversation is in heaven; from
whence also we look for the Saviour, the
Lord Jesus Christ:

may be fashioned like unto his glorious
body, according to the working whereby
he is able even to subdue all things unto
himself.

2 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

3 Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. 

5 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

CHAPTER 2:

MY son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; 2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to
understanding;
3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;

5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and
understanding.

CHAPTER 45:

15 Verily thou art a God that hidest
thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
16 They shall be ashamed, and also
confounded, all of them: they shall go to
confusion together that are makers of
idols.
17 But Israel shall be saved in the LORD
with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not
be ashamed nor confounded world without
end.

 

 

Hebrews 6 lines 1 through 6

THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE HEBREWS.
CHAPTER 6:

THEREFORE leaving the principles of
the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto
perfection; not laying again the foundation
of repentance from dead works, and of
faith toward God,
2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of
laying on of hands, and of resurrection of
the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3 And this will we do, if God permit.
4 For it is impossible for those who were
once enlightened, and have tasted of the
heavenly gift, and were made partakers of
the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God,
and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them
again unto repentance; seeing they crucify
to themselves the Son of God afresh, and
put him to an open shame.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. MATTHEW.
CHAPTER 6:

9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our
Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be
thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done
in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive
our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil: For thine is the
kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever. Amen.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. LUKE.
CHAPTER 11:

AND it came to pass, that, as he was
praying in a certain place, when he ceased,
one of his disciples said unto him, Lord,
teach us to pray, as John also taught his
disciples.
2 And he said unto them, When ye pray,
say, Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom
come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so
in earth.
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
4 And forgive us our sins; for we also
forgive every one that is indebted to us.
And lead us not into temptation; but
deliver us from evil.

Jeremiah 6:10 with Jeremiah 20:9

THE BOOK OF THE PROPHET JEREMIAH.
CHAPTER 6:

10 To whom shall I speak, and give
warning, that they may hear? behold, their
ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot
hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is
unto them a reproach; they have no delight
in it.

CHAPTER 20:

9 Then I said, I will not make mention of
him, nor speak any more in his name. But
his word was in mine heart as a burning
fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary
with forbearing, and I could not stay.
