Romans 1
1
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, 2 which he
promised afore through his prophets in the holy scriptures, 3 concerning his Son, who was born of the
seed of David according to the flesh, 4 who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to
the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead; even Jesus Christ our Lord, 5 through whom we
received grace and apostleship, unto obedience of faith among all the nations, for his names
sake; 6 among whom are ye also, called to be Jesus Christs: 7 to all that are in Rome, beloved of God,
called to be saints:
8
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through
Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world. 9 For God is my
witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,
always in my prayers 10 making request, if by any means now at length I may be prospered by the will of
God to come unto you.

Quotes

Your best servant is the person who does not attend so much to hearing what he himself wants as to willing what he has
heard from you.
Augustine of Hippo, Confessions

Romans 1
11
For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be
established;
12
that is, that I with you may be comforted in you, each of us by the others faith, both
yours and mine. 13 And I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto
you (and was hindered hitherto), that I might have some fruit in you also, even as in the rest of the
Gentiles.
14
I am debtor both to Greeks and to Barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.
15
So, as
16
much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are in Rome. For I am not ashamed
of the gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and
also to the Greek.

Invite the Lord to be present as you read. If you want, use this sample prayer:
Blessed Lord, who caused all holy Scriptures to be written for our learning: Grant us
so to hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them, that we may embrace
and ever hold fast the blessed hope of everlasting life, which you have given us in our
Savior Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for
ever and ever. Amen. (BCP, ECUSA, 1979, p. 236)

underlines?
JANUARY 3
Romans 1
17
For therein is revealed a righteousness of God from faith unto faith: as it is written, But the
18
righteous shall live by faith. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and
unrighteousness of men, who hinder the truth in unrighteousness; 19 because that which is known of God
is manifest in them; for God manifested it unto them.
JANUARY 4
Romans 1
20
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived
through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without
21
excuse: because that, knowing God, they glorified him not as God, neither gave thanks; but became
vain in their reasonings, and their senseless heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise,
they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of
corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
JANUARY 5
Romans 1
24
Wherefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts unto uncleanness, that their bodies
should be dishonored among themselves: 25 for that they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and
26
worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this
cause God gave them up unto vile passions: for their women changed the natural use into that which is
against nature: 27 and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust
one toward another, men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense
of their error which was due.
JANUARY 6

Romans 1
28
And even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up unto a reprobate
29
mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 backbiters,
hateful to God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 without
32
understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, unmerciful: who, knowing the ordinance
of God, that they that practise such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also consent
with them that practise them.
JANUARY 7
Romans 2
1
Wherefore thou art without excuse, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest
another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest dost practise the same things. 2 And we know
that the judgment of God is according to truth against them that practise such things. 3 And reckonest
thou this, O man, who judgest them that practise such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt
escape the judgment of God? 4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and
longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
JANUARY 8
Romans 2
5
but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and
revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 6 who will render to every man according to his works: 7 to
them that by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life: 8 but unto
them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, shall be wrath and
indignation, 9 tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also
of the Greek; 10 but glory and honor and peace to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and
also to the Greek: 11 for there is no respect of persons with God.
JANUARY 9
Romans 2
12
For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without the law: and as many as have
sinned under the law shall be judged by the law; 13 for not the hearers of the law are just before God,
14
but the doers of the law shall be justified: (for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the
15
things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves; in that they show the work
of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with

another accusing or else excusing them);
according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ.
16
in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men,
JANUARY 10
Romans 2
17
But if thou bearest the name of a Jew, and restest upon the law, and gloriest in God, 18 and
19
knowest his will, and approvest the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law, and art
20
confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness, a corrector of
the foolish, a teacher of babes, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth; 21 thou
therefore that teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal,
22
dost thou steal? thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou
that abhorrest idols, dost thou rob temples? 23 thou who gloriest in the law, through thy transgression of
the law dishonorest thou God?
JANUARY 11
Romans 2
24
For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, even as it is
written. 25 For circumcision indeed profiteth, if thou be a doer of the law: but if thou be a transgressor of
the law, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision. 26 If therefore the uncircumcision keep the
ordinances of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision? 27 and shall not the
uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who with the letter and circumcision art
a transgressor of the law? 28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which
is outward in the flesh: 29 but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in
the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
JANUARY 12
Romans 3
1
What advantage then hath the Jew? or what is the profit of circumcision? 2 Much every way: first
of all, that they were intrusted with the oracles of God. 3 For what if some were without faith? shall their
want of faith make of none effect the faithfulness of God? 4 God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but
every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when
thou comest into judgment.

JANUARY 13
Romans 3
5
But if our unrighteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God
unrighteous who visiteth with wrath? (I speak after the manner of men.) 6 God forbid: for then how shall
7
God judge the world? But if the truth of God through my lie abounded unto his glory, why am I also still
8
judged as a sinner? and why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), Let
us do evil, that good may come? whose condemnation is just.
JANUARY 14
Romans 3
9
What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we before laid to the charge both of Jews
and Greeks, that they are all under sin; 10 as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one; 11 There
is none that understandeth, There is none that seeketh after God; 12 They have all turned aside, they are
together become unprofitable; There is none that doeth good, no, not so much as one: 13 Their throat is
an open sepulchre; With their tongues they have used deceit: The poison of asps is under their
14
lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15
Their feet are swift to shed blood; 16 Destruction and misery are in their ways;
have they not known: 18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
17
And the way of peace
JANUARY 15
Romans 3
19
Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it speaketh to them that are under the law;
that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of
20
God: because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified in his sight; for through the
law cometh the knowledge of sin.
JANUARY 16
Romans 3
21
But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the
law and the prophets; 22 even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that
23
24
believe; for there is no distinction; for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; being
justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 whom God set forth to be a
propitiation, through faith, in his blood, to show his righteousness because of the passing over of the sins
10

done aforetime, in the forbearance of God; 26 for the showing, I say, of his righteousness at this present
season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him that hath faith in Jesus.
JANUARY 17
Romans 3
27
Where then is the glorying? It is excluded. By what manner of law? of works? Nay: but by a law
28
29
of faith. We reckon therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. Or is
30
God the God of Jews only? is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yea, of Gentiles also: if so be that God is
one, and he shall justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through faith. 31 Do we then
make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law.
JANUARY 18
Romans 4
1
What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather, hath found according to the flesh? 2 For if
Abraham was justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not toward God. 3 For what saith the
scripture? And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.
JANUARY 19
Romans 4
4
Now to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned as of grace, but as of debt. 5 But to him that
worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reckoned for
righteousness. 6 Even as David also pronounceth blessing upon the man, unto whom God reckoneth
7
righteousness apart from works, saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven,
8
And whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not reckon sin.
JANUARY 20
Romans 4
9
Is this blessing then pronounced upon the circumcision, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we
say, To Abraham his faith was reckoned for righteousness. 10 How then was it reckoned? when he was in
11

circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision: 11 and he received the sign
of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while he was in uncircumcision: that
he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be in uncircumcision, that righteousness
might be reckoned unto them; 12 and the father of circumcision to them who not only are of the
circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham which he had in
uncircumcision.
JANUARY 21
Romans 4
13
For not through the law was the promise to Abraham or to his seed that he should be heir of the
14
world, but through the righteousness of faith. For if they that are of the law are heirs, faith is made
void, and the promise is made of none effect: 15 for the law worketh wrath; but where there is no law,
neither is there transgression.16 For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace; to the end
that the promise may be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which
is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all 17 (as it is written, A father of many nations have I
made thee) before him whom he believed, even God, who giveth life to the dead, and calleth the things
that are not, as though they were.
JANUARY 22
Romans 4
18
Who in hope believed against hope, to the end that he might become a father of many nations,
according to that which had been spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And without being weakened in faith
he considered his own body now as good as dead (he being about a hundred years old), and the
deadness of Sarahs womb; 20 yet, looking unto the promise of God, he wavered not through unbelief, but
waxed strong through faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully assured that what he had promised, he
22
23
was able also to perform. Wherefore also it was reckoned unto him for righteousness. Now it was
not written for his sake alone, that it was reckoned unto him; 24 but for our sake also, unto whom it shall
25
be reckoned, who believe on him that raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, who was delivered up for
our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.
JANUARY 23
Romans 5
1
Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ; 2 through
whom also we have had our access by faith into this grace wherein we stand; and we rejoice in hope of
3
the glory of God. And not only so, but we also rejoice in our tribulations: knowing that tribulation
worketh stedfastness; 4 and stedfastness, approvedness; and approvedness, hope: 5 and hope putteth
12

not to shame; because the love of God hath been shed abroad in our hearts through the Holy Spirit
which was given unto us.
JANUARY 24
Romans 5
6
For while we were yet weak, in due season Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous
man will one die: for peradventure for the good man some one would even dare to die. 8 But God
9
commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more
then, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath of God through him.
JANUARY 25
Romans 5
10
For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much
more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life; 11 and not only so, but we also rejoice in God
12
through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation. Therefore, as
through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin; and so death passed unto all men,
for that all sinned: 13 for until the law sin was in the world; but sin is not imputed when there is no
law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the
likeness of Adams transgression, who is a figure of him that was to come.
JANUARY 26
Romans 5
15
But not as the trespass, so also is the free gift. For if by the trespass of the one the many died,
much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound unto the
16
many. And not as through one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment came of one unto
17
condemnation, but the free gift came of many trespasses unto justification. For if, by the trespass of
the one, death reigned through the one; much more shall they that receive the abundance of grace and
of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, even Jesus Christ.
JANUARY 27
Romans 5
18
So then as through one trespass the judgment came unto all men to condemnation; even so
through one act of righteousness the free gift came unto all men to justification of life. 19 For as through
13

the one mans disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one
20
shall the many be made righteous. And the law came in besides, that the trespass might abound; but
where sin abounded, grace did abound more exceedingly: 21 that, as sin reigned in death, even so might
grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
JANUARY 28
Romans 6
1
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. We who died to
3
sin, how shall we any longer live therein? Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ
4
Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death:
that like as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in
newness of life.
JANUARY 29
Romans 6
5
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of
his resurrection; 6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be
done away, that so we should no longer be in bondage to sin; 7 for he that hath died is justified from
sin. 8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him; 9 knowing that Christ being
raised from the dead dieth no more; death no more hath dominion over him.
died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
10
For the death that he
JANUARY 30
Romans 6
11
Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.
12
Let not sin
13
therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey the lusts thereof: neither present your
members unto sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves unto God, as alive from the
dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace.
14
For sin shall not have dominion
JANUARY 31
Romans 6
15
What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid. 16 Know ye not,
that to whom ye present yourselves as servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey;
14

whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? 17 But thanks be to God, that, whereas ye
were servants of sin, ye became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching whereunto ye were
18
delivered; and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.
February 1
Romans 6
19
I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye presented your
members as servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity, even so now present your
20
members as servants to righteousness unto sanctification. For when ye were servants of sin, ye were
free in regard of righteousness.
21
What fruit then had ye at that time in the things whereof ye are now
ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22
But now being made free from sin and become servants
to God, ye have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life.
but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
23
For the wages of sin is death;
February 2
Romans 7
1
Or are ye ignorant, brethren (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law hath dominion over a
man for so long time as he liveth? 2 For the woman that hath a husband is bound by law to the husband
while he liveth; but if the husband die, she is discharged from the law of the husband. 3 So then if, while
the husband liveth, she be joined to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if the husband
die, she is free from the law, so that she is no adulteress, though she be joined to another man.
February 3
Romans 7
4
Wherefore, my brethren, ye also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ; that ye should
be joined to another, even to him who was raised from the dead, that we might bring forth fruit unto
5
God. For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions, which were through the law, wrought in our
members to bring forth fruit unto death. 6 But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to
that wherein we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.
February 4
Romans 7
7
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Howbeit, I had not known sin, except through the
8
law: for I had not known coveting, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet: but sin, finding
occasion, wrought in me through the commandment all manner of coveting: for apart from the law
15

sin is dead. 9 And I was alive apart from the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived,
10
and I died; and the commandment, which was unto life, this I found to be unto death:
finding occasion, through the commandment beguiled me, and through it slew me.
11
for sin,
February 5
Romans 7
12
So that the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good. 13 Did then that which is
good become death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, by working death to
me through that which is good;that through the commandment sin might become exceeding sinful.
February 6
Romans 7
14
For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
for not what I would, that do I practise; but what I hate, that I do.
consent unto the law that it is good.
17
16
15
For that which I do I know not:
But if what I would not, that I do, I
So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.
February 7
Romans 7
18
For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me, but to
do that which is good is not. 19 For the good which I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I
practise. 20 But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me. 21 I
find then the law, that, to me who would do good, evil is present.
February 8
Romans 7
22
For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23 but I see a different law in my members,
warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my
24
25
members. Wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me out of the body of this death? I thank God
through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then I of myself with the mind, indeed, serve the law of God; but with
the flesh the law of sin.
February 9
16

Romans 8
1
There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of
life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
February 10
Romans 8
3
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, sending his own Son in the
4
likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: that the ordinance of the law might be
fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh mind the
things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For the mind of the flesh is
death;
February 11
Romans 8
but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace: 7 because the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it is
not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can it be: 8 and they that are in the flesh cannot please
God. 9 But ye are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you. But if
any man hath not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead
because of sin; but the spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up
Jesus from the dead dwelleth in you, he that raised up Christ Jesus from the dead shall give life also to
your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
February 12
Romans 8
12
13
So then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh: for if ye live after the
flesh, ye must die; but if by the Spirit ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
February 13
Romans 8
14
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.
15
For ye received not the spirit of
bondage again unto fear; but ye received the spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The
Spirit himself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are children of God:17 and if children, then heirs;
17

heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified
with him.
February 14
Romans 8
18
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory
which shall be revealed to us-ward.
February 15
Romans 8
19
For the earnest expectation of the creation waiteth for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the
creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but by reason of him who subjected it, in
hope 21 that the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of
the glory of the children of God.
22
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain
23
together until now. And not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we
ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for our adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
February 16
Romans 8
24
For in hope were we saved: but hope that is seen is not hope: for who hopeth for that which he
seeth?
February 17
Romans 8
25
26
But if we hope for that which we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. And in like manner
the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity: for we know not how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself
maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered; 27 and he that searcheth the hearts
knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the
will of God.
February 18
Romans 8

28
And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, even to them that are
called according to his purpose.
February 19
Romans 8
29
For whom he foreknew, he also foreordained to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might
be the firstborn among many brethren: 30 and whom he foreordained, them he also called: and whom he
called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him freely give us all things? 33 Who
shall lay anything to the charge of Gods elect? It is God that justifieth; 34 who is he that condemneth? It
is Christ Jesus that died, yea rather, that was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who
also maketh intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or
anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
February 21
Romans 8
36
Even as it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; We were accounted as sheep for the
37
38
slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am
persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to
39
come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the
love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
February 22
Romans 9
1
I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience bearing witness with me in the Holy Spirit, 2 that I have
great sorrow and unceasing pain in my heart. 3 For I could wish that I myself were anathema from Christ
for my brethrens sake, my kinsmen according to the flesh: 4 who are Israelites; whose is the adoption,
and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the
19

promises; 5 whose are the fathers, and of whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God
blessed for ever. Amen.
February 23
Romans 9
6
But it is not as though the word of God hath come to nought. For they are not all Israel, that are of
Israel:7 neither, because they are Abrahams seed, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be
called. 8 That is, it is not the children of the flesh that are children of God; but the children of the promise
are reckoned for a seed. 9 For this is a word of promise, According to this season will I come, and Sarah
shall have a son.
February 24
Romans 9
10
And not only so; but Rebecca also having conceived by one, even by our father Isaac 11 for the
childrenbeing not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according
to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth, 12 it was said unto her, The elder shall serve
the younger.13 Even as it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.
unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

What shall we say then? Is there

Romans 9
15
For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I
have compassion.
16
So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that hath
17
mercy. For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, For this very purpose did I raise thee up, that I might
show in thee my power, and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth.
February 26
Romans 9
18
So then he hath mercy on whom he will, and whom he will he hardeneth.
February 27
Romans 9
20

19
Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he still find fault? For who withstandeth his will? 20 Nay but, O
man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why didst
21
thou make me thus? Or hath not the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part
a vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?
February 28
Romans 9
22
What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much
23
longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction: and that he might make known the riches of his
glory upon vessels of mercy, which he afore prepared unto glory,
from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles?
24
even us, whom he also called, not
Romans 9
25
As he saith also in Hosea, I will call that my people, which was not my people; And her beloved,
that was not beloved. 26 And it shall be, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my
people, There shall they be called sons of the living God.
27
And Isaiah crieth concerning Israel, If the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the
sea, it is the remnant that shall be saved: 28 for the Lord will execute his word upon the earth, finishing it
and cutting it short. 29 And, as Isaiah hath said before,Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed,
We had become as Sodom, and had been made like unto Gomorrah.
March 1
Romans 9
30
What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, attained to
righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith: 31 but Israel, following after a law of
righteousness, did not arrive at that law. 32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were
33
by works. They stumbled at the stone of stumbling; even as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone
of stumbling and a rock of offence: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.
March 2
Romans 10
1
Brethren, my hearts desire and my supplication to God is for them, that they may be saved. For I bear
3
them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. For being ignorant of
21

Gods righteousness, and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the
righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness to every one that
5
believeth. For Moses writeth that the man that doeth the righteousness which is of the law shall live
thereby.
March 3
Romans 10
6
But the righteousness which is of faith saith thus, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven?
7
(that is, to bring Christ down:) or, Who shall descend into the abyss? (that is, to bring Christ up from
the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of
faith, which we preach: 9 because if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in
10
thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved: for with the heart man believeth
unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
March 4
Romans 10
11
For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be put to shame. 12 For there is no
distinction between Jew and Greek: for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich unto all that call upon
him: 13 for, Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
March 5
Romans 10
14
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in
him whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 and how shall they
preach, except they be sent? even as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that bring glad
tidings of good things!
March 6
Romans 10
22

16
But they did not all hearken to the glad tidings. For Isaiah saith, Lord, who hath believed our
17
18
report? So belief cometh of hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. But I say, Did they not hear?
Yea, verily, Their sound went out into all the earth, And their words unto the ends of the world.
19
But I say, Did Israel not know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is
no nation, With a nation void of understanding will I anger you.
March 7
Romans 10
20
And Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I became manifest
unto them that asked not of me.
21
But as to Israel he saith, All the day long did I spread out my hands unto a disobedient and
gainsaying people.
March 8
Romans 11
1
I say then, Did God cast off his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of
Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 God did not cast off his people which he foreknew. Or know ye not
what the scripture saith of Elijah? how he pleadeth with God against Israel: 3 Lord, they have killed thy
prophets, they have digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life. 4 But what saith
the answer of God unto him? I have left for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee
to Baal. 5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
March 9
Romans 11
6
But if it is by grace, it is no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. 7 What then? That
which Israel seeketh for, that he obtained not; but the election obtained it, and the rest were
8
hardened: according as it is written, God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see,
and ears that they should not hear, unto this very day. 9 And David saith, Let their table be made a
snare, and a trap, And a stumblingblock, and a recompense unto them: 10 Let their eyes be darkened,
that they may not see, And bow thou down their back always.
March 10
23

Romans 11
11
I say then, Did they stumble that they might fall? God forbid: but by their fall salvation is come unto
the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
12
Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the
13
riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness? But I speak to you that are Gentiles. Inasmuch
then as I am an apostle of Gentiles, I glorify my ministry; 14 if by any means I may provoke to
15
jealousy them that are my flesh, and may save some of them. For if the casting away of them is the
reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
March 11
Romans 11
16
And if the firstfruit is holy, so is the lump: and if the root is holy, so are the branches. 17 But if some of
the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive, wast grafted in among them, and didst
become partaker with them of the root of the fatness of the olive tree; 18 glory not over the branches:
but if thou gloriest, it is not thou that bearest the root, but the root thee. 19 Thou wilt say then, Branches
were broken off, that I might be grafted in. 20 Well; by their unbelief they were broken off, and thou
standest by thy faith. Be not highminded, but fear: 21 for if God spared not the natural branches, neither
will he spare thee.
March 12
Romans 11
22
Behold then the goodness and severity of God: toward them that fell, severity; but toward thee,
Gods goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off
. 23 And they also, if they continue not in their unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them
in again. 24 For if thou wast cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary
to nature into a good olive tree; how much more shall these, which are the natural branches, be grafted
into their own olive tree? 25 For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant of this mystery, lest ye be wise
in your own conceits, that a hardening in part hath befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be
come in;
March 13
Romans 11
26
and so all Israel shall be saved: even as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer;
He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: 27 And this is my covenant unto them,
24

When I shall take away their sins. 28 As touching the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as
touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers sake.
March 14
Romans 11
29
For the gifts and the calling of God are not repented of. 30 For as ye in time past were disobedient to
31
God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience, even so have these also now been
32
disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they also may now obtain mercy. For God hath shut up all
unto disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.
March 15
Romans 11
33
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his
judgments, and his ways past tracing out! 34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath
been his counsellor? 35 or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? 36 For
of him, and through him, and unto him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever. Amen.
March 16
Romans 12
1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy,
2
acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service. And be not fashioned according to this world: but be
ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and
perfect will of God.
March 17
Romans 12
3
For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself
more highly than he ought to think; but so to think as to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to
4
each man a measure of faith. For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members
have not the same office: 5 so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and severally members one of
another.

March 18
Romans 12
6
And having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, whether prophecy, let us
prophesy according to the proportion of our faith; 7 or ministry, let us give ourselves to our ministry; or
he that teacheth, to his teaching; 8 or he that exhorteth, to his exhorting: he that giveth, let him do
it with liberality; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness.
March 18
Romans 12
9
Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
10
In love of the
11
brethren be tenderly affectioned one to another; in honor preferring one another; in diligence not
slothful; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing stedfastly
in prayer;

communicating to the necessities of the saints; given to hospitality.

Bless them that
persecute you; bless, and curse not. 15 Rejoice with them that rejoice; weep with them that weep.

Romans 12
Set not your mind on high things, but condescend to things that are lowly. Be not wise in your own
conceits. 17 Render to no man evil for evil. Take thought for things honorable in the sight of all men. 18 If
it be possible, as much as in you lieth, be at peace with all men. 19 Avenge not yourselves, beloved, but
give place unto the wrath of God: for it is written, Vengeance belongeth unto me; I will recompense,
saith the Lord. 20 But if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him to drink: for in so doing thou
shalt heap coals of fire upon his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
March 20
Romans 12
1
Let every soul be in subjection to the higher powers: for there is no power but of God; and
the powers that be are ordained of God. 2 Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the
ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment. 3 For rulers are not a
terror to the good work, but to the evil. And wouldest thou have no fear of the power? do that which is
4
good, and thou shalt have praise from the same: for he is a minister of God to thee for good. But if
thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is a minister of God, an
avenger for wrath to him that doeth evil.

Romans 12
5
Whereforeye must needs be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience
6
sake. For for this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are ministers of Gods service, attending continually
7
upon this very thing. Render to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom;
fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor. 8 Owe no man anything, save to love one another: for he that
9
loveth his neighbor hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill,
Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in
this word, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
therefore is the fulfilment of the law.

Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: love

Romans 12
And this, knowing the season, that already it is time for you to awake out of sleep: for now is salvation
nearer to us than when we first believed. 12 The night is far spent, and the day is at hand: let us
therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. 13 Let us walk becomingly,
as in the day; not in revelling and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and
jealousy. 14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the
lusts thereof.
March 23
Romans 13
1
But him that is weak in faith receive ye, yet not for decision of scruples. 2 One man hath faith to
eat all things: but he that is weak eateth herbs. 3 Let not him that eateth set at nought him that eateth
not; and let not him that eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. 4 Who art thou
that judgest the servant of another? to his own lord he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be made to
stand; for the Lord hath power to make him stand. 5 One man esteemeth one day above another:
another esteemeth every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind. 6 He that regardeth
the day, regardeth it unto the Lord: and he that eateth, eateth unto the Lord, for he giveth God thanks;
and he that eateth not, unto the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
March 24
Romans 13
7
For none of us liveth to himself, and none dieth to himself. 8 For whether we live, we live unto the
9
Lord; or whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lords. For
to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living. 10 But thou,
why dost thou judge thy brother? or thou again, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all
27

stand before the judgment-seat of God. 11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee
shall bow, And every tongue shall confess to God.
March 25
Romans 14
12
13
So then each one of us shall give account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one
another any more: but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brothers way, or an
occasion of falling.
March 26
Romans 14
14
I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: save that to him
who accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. 15 For if because of meat thy brother is
grieved, thou walkest no longer in love. Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Christ died. 16 Let not
then your good be evil spoken of: 17 for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness
and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 1
March 27
Romans 14
8
For he that herein serveth Christ is well-pleasing to God, and approved of men. 19 So then let us
follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another. 20 Overthrow
not for meats sake the work of God. All things indeed are clean; howbeit it is evil for that man who
eateth with offence. 21 It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything whereby thy
brother stumbleth.
March 28
Romans 14
22
The faith which thou hast, have thou to thyself before God. Happy is he that judgeth not himself
23
in that which he approveth. But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because he eateth not of
faith; and whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
March 29
Romans 15
1
Now we that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
28

2
Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, unto edifying. 3 For Christ also
pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell upon me.
4
For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that through patience and
through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope. 5 Now the God of patience and of comfort grant
6
you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus: that with one accord ye may
7
with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Wherefore receive ye one another,
even as Christ also received you, to the glory of God.
March 30
Romans 15
8
For I say that Christ hath been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he
might confirm the promises given unto the fathers, 9 and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his
mercy; as it is written, Therefore will I give praise unto thee among the Gentiles, And sing unto thy
name. 10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. 11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye
Gentiles; And let all the peoples praise him. 12 And again, Isaiah saith, There shall be the root of Jesse,
And he that ariseth to rule over the Gentiles;

Romans 15
13
Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, in
the power of the Holy Spirit. 14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye yourselves
are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
April 1
Romans 15
15
But I write the more boldly unto you in some measure, as putting you again in remembrance,
because of the grace that was given me of God,16 that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus unto the
Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable,
17
being sanctified by the Holy Spirit. I have therefore my glorying in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to
God.

Romans 15
18
For I will not dare to speak of any things save those which Christ wrought through me, for the
19
obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed, in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the
Holy Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and round about even unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the
gospel of Christ; 20 yea, making it my aim so to preach the gospel, not where Christ was already named,
21
that I might not build upon another mans foundation; but, as it is written, They shall see, to whom no
tidings of him came, And they who have not heard shall understand.

Romans 15

23
Wherefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you: but now, having no
more any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come unto
you, 24 whensoever I go unto Spain (for I hope to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way
thitherward by you, if first in some measure I shall have been satisfied with your company) 25 but
now, I say, I go unto Jerusalem, ministering unto the saints.
April 4
Romans 15
26
For it hath been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for
the poor among the saints that are at Jerusalem. 27 Yea, it hath been their good pleasure; and their
debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to
them also to minister unto them in carnal things. 28 When therefore I have accomplished this, and have
sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by you unto Spain. 29 And I know that, when I come unto you, I
shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.
April 5
Romans 15
30
Now I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that ye
strive together with me in your prayers to God for me; 31 that I may be delivered from them that are
disobedient in Juda, and that my ministration which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the
saints; 32 that I may come unto you in joy through the will of God, and together with you find
33
rest. Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

I commend unto you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church that is at Cenchre: 2 that ye
receive her in the Lord, worthily of the saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever matter she may have
need of you: for she herself also hath been a helper of many, and of mine own self. 3 Salute Prisca and

Aquila my fellow-workers in Christ Jesus, who for my life laid down their own necks; unto whom not
only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles: 5 and salute the church that is in their house.

Salute them that are of the household of Aristobulus. 11 Salute Herodion my kinsman. Salute them of
the household of Narcissus, that are in the Lord. 12 Salute Tryphna and Tryphosa, who labor in the
Lord. Salute Persis the beloved, who labored much in the Lord.
13
Salute Rufus the chosen in the Lord,

and his mother and mine. Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brethren
that are with them. 15 Salute Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints
that are with them.
16
Salute one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ salute you.

Romans 16
17
Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them that are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling,
contrary to the doctrine which ye learned: and turn away from them. 18 For they that are such serve not
our Lord Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the
innocent.

For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I rejoice therefore over you: but I would have you

of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which hath been kept in silence through times
26
eternal, but now is manifested, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment
of the eternal God, is made known unto all the nations unto obedience of faith:
through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory for ever. Amen.

1
Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-
worker, 2 and to Apphia our sister, and to Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the church in thy
3
house: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God
always, making mention of thee in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy love, and of the faith which thou hast
toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the saints;6 that the fellowship of thy faith may become effectual,
in the knowledge of every good thing which is in you, unto Christ. 7 For I had much joy and comfort in
thy love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother. 8 Wherefore,
9
though I have all boldness in Christ to enjoin thee that which is befitting, yet for loves sake I rather
beseech, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now prisoner also of Christ Jesus:

11
who once was
whom I have sent back to thee in his
whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might
minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel: 14 but without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy
goodness should not be as of necessity, but of free will. 15 For perhaps he was therefore parted from
thee for a season, that thou shouldest have him for ever; 16 no longer as a servant, but more than a

But if he hath wronged thee at all, or oweth thee aught, put that to mine account; 19 I Paul write it
with mine own hand, I will repay it: that I say not unto thee that thou owest to me even thine own self
besides.
20
Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my heart in Christ.
21
Having
confidence in thine obedience I write unto thee, knowing that thou wilt do even beyond what I say.
withal prepare me also a lodging: for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted unto
you.

Galatians 1
1
Paul, an apostle (not from men, neither through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father,
who raised him from the dead), 2 and all the brethren that are with me, unto the churches of
Galatia: 3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who gave himself for
our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil world, according to the will of our God and
Father: 5 to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
April 6
Galatians 1
6
I marvel that ye are so quickly removing from him that called you in the grace of Christ unto a different
gospel; 7 which is not another gospel: only there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel
of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach unto you any gospel other than that
which we preached unto you, let him be anathema. 9 As we have said before, so say I now again, If any
man preacheth unto you any gospel other than that which ye received, let him be anathema.
April 7
Galatians 1
10
For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? or am I striving to please men? if I were still
pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.
11
For I make known to you, brethren, as touching the
gospel which was preached by me, that it is not after man. 12 For neither did I receive it from man, nor
was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
33

13
For ye have heard of my manner of life in time past in the Jews religion, how that beyond measure I
14
persecuted the church of God, and made havoc of it: and I advanced in the Jews religion beyond
many of mine own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my
fathers.
April 8
Galatians 1
15
But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me, even from my mothers womb,
16
and called me through his grace, to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles;
straightway I conferred not with flesh and blood: 17 neither went I up to Jerusalem to them that were
apostles before me: but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned unto Damascus. 18 Then after
19
three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas, and tarried with him fifteen days. But other of the
20
apostles saw I none, save James the Lords brother. Now touching the things which I write unto you,
behold, before God, I lie not. 21 Then I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia. 22 And I was still
unknown by face unto the churches of Juda which were in Christ: 23 but they only heard say, He that
once persecuted us now preacheth the faith of which he once made havoc; 24 and they glorified God in
me.
April 9
Galatians 2
1
Then after the space of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also
with me. 2 And I went up by revelation; and I laid before them the gospel which I preach among the
Gentiles but privately before them who were of repute, lest by any means I should be running, or had
run, in vain. 3 But not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be
4
circumcised: and that because of the false brethren privily brought in, who came in privily to spy out our
liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: 5 to whom we gave place in
the way of subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
April 10
Galatians 2
6
But from those who were reputed to be somewhat (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me:
God accepteth not mans person)they, I say, who were of repute imparted nothing to me: 7 but
contrariwise, when they saw that I had been intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, even as
Peter with the gospel of the circumcision 8 (for he that wrought for Peter unto the apostleship of the
circumcision wrought for me also unto the Gentiles); 9 and when they perceived the grace that was given
unto me, James and Cephas and John, they who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas
34

the right hands of fellowship, that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the
circumcision; 10 only they would that we should remember the poor; which very thing I was also zealous
to do.
11
But when Cephas came to Antioch, I resisted him to the face, because he stood condemned.
April 11
Galatians 2
12
For before that certain came from James, he ate with the Gentiles; but when they came, he drew back
and separated himself, fearing them that were of the circumcision. 13 And the rest of the Jews dissembled
likewise with him; insomuch that even Barnabas was carried away with their dissimulation. 14 But when I
saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Cephas
before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest as do the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, how compellest
15
thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews? We being Jews by nature, and not sinners of the
Gentiles, 16 yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus
Christ, even we believed on Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the
works of the law: because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. 17 But if, while we sought to
be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a minister of sin? God forbid. 18 For if
I build up again those things which I destroyed, I prove myself a transgressor.
died unto the law, that I might live unto God.
19
For I through the law
April 12
Galatians 2
20
I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me: and
that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me,
and gave himself up for me. 21 I do not make void the grace of God: for if righteousness is through the
law, then Christ died for nought.
April 13
Galatians 3
1
O foolish Galatians, who did bewitch you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth
2
crucified? This only would I learn from you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the
hearing of faith?3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now perfected in the flesh? 4 Did ye
suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain.
35

April 14
Galatians 3
5
He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the
works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto
him for righteousness. 7 Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham. 8 And
the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand
unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all the nations be blessed.
April 15
Galatians 3
9
10
So then they that are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham. For as many as are of the works
of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all things that
are written in the book of the law, to do them.11 Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is
evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;
12
and the law is not of faith; but, He that doeth them shall
13
live in them. Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; for it is
written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that upon the Gentiles might come the blessing of
Abraham in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
April 16
Galatians 3
15
Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a mans covenant, yet when it hath been
confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto. 16 Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and
to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is
Christ. 17 Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred
18
and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect. For if the
inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God hath granted it to Abraham by
19
promise. What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to
whom the promise hath been made; and it was ordained through angels by the hand of a
mediator. 20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one; but God is one. 21 Is the law then against the
promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily
righteousness would have been of the law.
April 17
Galatians 3
22
But the scriptures shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given
to them that believe.
23
But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up unto the
36

faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24
So that the law is become our tutor to bring us unto Christ,
25
26
that we might be justified by faith. But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a tutor. For
ye are all sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ
did put on Christ.
April 18
Galatians 3
28
There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and
female; for ye all are one man in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye are Christs, then are ye Abrahams seed, heirs
1
according to promise. But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a
bondservant though he is lord of all; 2 but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed of the
father. 3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the rudiments of the
world: 4 but when the fulness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the
law, 5 that he might redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
April 20
Galatians 4
6
And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 So
that thou art no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God. 8 Howbeit at
9
that time, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to them that by nature are no gods: but now that ye
have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how turn ye back again to the weak and
beggarly rudiments, whereunto ye desire to be in bondage over again? 10 Ye observe days, and months,
and seasons, and years.
11
I am afraid of you, lest by any means I have bestowed labor upon you in vain.
April 21
Galatians 4
12
I beseech you, brethren, become as I am, for I also am become as ye are. Ye did me no wrong:
13
but
14
ye know that because of an infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you the first time: and that
which was a temptation to you in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but ye received me as an angel
of God, even as Christ Jesus.
15
Where then is that gratulation of yourselves? for I bear you witness, that,
16
if possible, ye would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me. So then am I become your
17
enemy, by telling you the truth? They zealously seek you in no good way; nay, they desire to shut you
18
out, that ye may seek them. But it is good to be zealously sought in a good matter at all times, and not
only when I am present with you. 19 My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ be
20
formed in you but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone; for I am
perplexed about you.
37

April 22
Galatians 4
21
Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? 22 For it is written, that
Abraham had two sons, one by the handmaid, and one by the freewoman. 23 Howbeit the son by the
24
handmaid is born after the flesh; but the son by the freewoman is born through promise. Which things
contain an allegory: for thesewomen are two covenants; one from mount Sinai, bearing children unto
bondage, which is Hagar. 25 Now this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia and answereth to the Jerusalem that
26
now is: for she is in bondage with her children. But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is our
27
mother. For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; Break forth and cry, thou that travailest
not: For more are the children of the desolate than of her that hath the husband.
April 23
Galatians 4
28
Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise. 29 But as then he that was born after
the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, so also it is now. 30 Howbeit what saith the
scripture? Cast out the handmaid and her son: for the son of the handmaid shall not inherit with the son
of the freewoman. 31 Wherefore, brethren, we are not children of a handmaid, but of the freewoman.
April 24
Galatians 5
1
For freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of
bondage.
Behold, I Paul say unto you, that, if ye receive circumcision, Christ will profit you
nothing. Yea, I testify again to every man that receiveth circumcision, that he is a debtor to do the
whole law. 4 Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from
grace. 5 For we through the Spirit by faith wait for the hope of righteousness. 6 For in Christ Jesus neither
circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love. 7 Ye were running
well; who hindered you that ye should not obey the truth? 8 This persuasion came not of him that calleth
you.
A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
April 25
Galatians 5
38

10
I have confidence to you-ward in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that
11
troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be. But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision,
why am I still persecuted? then hath the stumbling-block of the cross been done away. 12 I would that
they that unsettle you would even go beyond circumcision. 13 For ye, brethren, were called for freedom;
only use not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to
14
another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as
thyself.
April 26
Galatians 5
15
16
But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. But
17
I say, Walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the
Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the
things that ye would. 18 But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the
flesh are manifest, which are these: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 idolatry, sorcery,
enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, parties, 21 envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and
such like; of which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall
not inherit the kingdom of God.
April 27
Galatians 5 and 6
22
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, 23 meekness, self-control; against such there is no law. 24 And they that are of Christ Jesus
have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof. 25 If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let
us also walk. 26 Let us not become vainglorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
1
Brethren, even if a man be overtaken in any trespass, ye who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit
of gentleness; looking to thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye one anothers burdens, and so fulfil
the law of Christ.
April 28
Galatians 6
3
For if a man thinketh himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. 4 But let each
man prove his own work, and then shall he have his glorying in regard of himself alone, and not of his
neighbor. 5 For each man shall bear his own burden. 6 But let him that is taught in the word communicate
unto him that teacheth in all good things. 7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man
soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth unto his own flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption;
but he that soweth unto the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life. 9 And let us not be weary in welldoing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
39
April 29
Galatians 6
10
So then, as we have opportunity, let us work that which is good toward all men, and especially toward
them that are of the household of the faith.
11
See with how large letters I write unto you with mine own
12
hand. As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that
they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13 For not even they who receive circumcision do
themselves keep the law; but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
April 30
Galatians 6

But far be it from me to glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world hath
been crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

mightest charge certain men not to teach a different doctrine, 4 neither to give heed to fables and endless
genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a dispensation of God which is in faith; so do I
now.

But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned:

righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane,
10
for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for fornicators, for abusers of

I thank him that enabled me, even Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he counted me faithful, appointing

obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief; 14 and the grace of our Lord abounded
exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 15 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all
acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief: 16 howbeit for
this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an
ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life.

I Timothy 2
I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all
men; 2 for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness
and gravity. 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 who would have all men to
be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, one mediator also between
God and men,himself man, Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony to be
borne in its own times; 7 whereunto I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth, I lie
not), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
May 26
I Timothy 2
8
I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and
disputing. 9 In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and
sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment; 10 but (which becometh women
professing godliness) through good works. 11 Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection. 12 But I
permit not a woman to teach, nor to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness.
13
For Adam was
14
first formed, then Eve; and Adam was not beguiled, but the woman being beguiled hath fallen into
transgression: 15 but she shall be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith and love and
sanctification with sobriety.

I Timothy 3
1
Faithful is the saying, If a man seeketh the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. The bishop
therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, orderly, given to
hospitality, apt to teach; 3 no brawler, no striker; but gentle, not contentious, no lover of money; 4 one
that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5 (but if a man knoweth
not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) 6 not a novice, lest being
7
puffed up he fall into the condemnation of the devil. Moreover he must have good testimony from them
that are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

Deacons in like manner must be grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of

then let them serve as deacons, if they be blameless.
11
Women in like manner must be grave, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things. 12 Let
deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling theirchildren and their own houses well. 13 For they that have
served well as deacons gain to themselves a good standing, and great boldness in the faith which is in
14
15
Christ Jesus. These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly; but if I tarry long,
that thou mayest know how men ought to behave themselves in the house of God, which is the church of
the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

I Timothy 3
16
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness; He who was manifested in the flesh,
Justified in the spirit, Seen of angels, Preached among the nations, Believed on in the world, Received up
in glory.
1
But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to
seducing spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 through the hypocrisy of men that speak lies, branded in their
own conscience as with a hot iron; 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which
God created to be received with thanksgiving by them that believe and know the truth. 4 For every
creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it be received with thanksgiving: 5 for it is
sanctified through the word of God and prayer. 6 If thou put the brethren in mind of these things, thou
shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine
which thou hast followed until now:
June 1
I Timothy 4
7
but refuse profane and old wives fables. And exercise thyself unto godliness: 8 for bodily exercise is
profitable for a little; but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life which now is, and
of that which is to come. 9 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation. 10 For to this end we labor
and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of
them that believe. 11 These things command and teach.
45
June 2
I Timothy 4
12
Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an ensample to them that believe, in word, in manner of
life, in love, in faith, in purity. 13 Till I come, give heed to reading, to exhortation, to teaching. 14 Neglect
not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the
presbytery. 15 Be diligent in these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy progress may be manifest
unto all. 16 Take heed to thyself, and to thy teaching. Continue in these things; for in doing this thou shalt
save both thyself and them that hear thee.
June 3
I Timothy 5
Rebuke not an elder, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brethren:
June 4
I Timothy 5
2
the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity. 3 Honor widows that are widows
indeed. 4 But if any widow hath children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their
own family, and to requite their parents: for this is acceptable in the sight of God. 5 Now she that is a
widow indeed, and desolate, hath her hope set on God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night
and day. 6 But she that giveth herself to pleasure is dead while she liveth. 7 These things also command,
that they may be without reproach. 8 But if any provideth not for his own, and specially his own
9
household, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever. Let none be enrolled as a widow
10
under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man, well reported of for good works; if she
hath brought up children, if she hath used hospitality to strangers, if she hath washed the saints feet, if
she hath relieved the afflicted, if she hath diligently followed every good work.
June 5
I Timothy 5
11
But younger widows refuse: for when they have waxed wanton against Christ, they desire to
marry; 12 having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge. 13 And withal they learn
also to be idle, going about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies,
14
speaking things which they ought not. I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children,
rule the household, give no occasion to the adversary for reviling:
15
for already some are turned aside
46

after Satan. 16 If any woman that believeth hath widows, let her relieve them, and let not the church be
burdened; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.
June 6
I Timothy 5
17
Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word
and in teaching.
18
For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn.
And, The laborer is worthy of his hire. 19 Against an elder receive not an accusation, except at the mouth
of two or three witnesses. 20 Them that sin reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in
21
fear. I charge thee in the sight of God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these
things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality. 22 Lay hands hastily on no man, neither be partaker
of other mens sins: keep thyself pure.
23
Be no longer a drinker of water, but use a little wine for thy
stomachs sake and thine often infirmities. 24 Some mens sins are evident, going before unto judgment;
and some men also they follow after. 25 In like manner also there are good works that are evident; and
such as are otherwise cannot be hid.
June 7
I Timothy 6
1
Let as many as are servants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name
of God and the doctrine be not blasphemed. 2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise
them, because they are brethren; but let them serve them the rather, because they that partake of the
benefit are believing and beloved. These things teach and exhort.
June 8
I Timothy 6
3
If any man teacheth a different doctrine, and consenteth not to sound words, even the words of our
4
Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; he is puffed up, knowing nothing,
but doting about questionings and disputes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil
surmisings, 5 wranglings of men corrupted in mind and bereft of the truth, supposing that godliness is a
way of gain.
47
June 9
I Timothy 6
6
But godliness with contentment is great gain: 7 for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can
we carry anything out; 8 but having food and covering we shall be therewith content. 9 But they that are
minded to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, such as drown
men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some
reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many
sorrows.
June 10
I Timothy 6
11
But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love,
patience, meekness.
12
Fight the good fight of the faith, lay hold on the life eternal, whereunto thou wast
called, and didst confess the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. 13 I charge thee in the sight
of God, who giveth life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed the good
confession; 14 that thou keep the commandment, without spot, without reproach, until the appearing of
our Lord Jesus Christ:
15
which in its own times he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the
King of kings, and Lord of lords; 16 who only hath immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable; whom no
man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power eternal. Amen.
June 11
I Timothy 6
17
Charge them that are rich in this present world, that they be not highminded, nor have their hope set
on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; 18 that they do good,
that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate; 19 laying up in
store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life
20
which is life indeed. O Timothy, guard that which is committed untothee, turning away from the
profane babblings and oppositions of the knowledge which is falsely so called;
have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with you.

our Lord. 3 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers in a pure conscience, how unceasing is my
4
remembrance of thee in my supplications, night and day longing to see thee, remembering thy tears,
that I may be filled with joy; 5 having been reminded of the unfeigned faith that is in thee; which dwelt
first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and, I am persuaded, in thee also.
June 13
2 Timothy 1
6
For which cause I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee through
the laying on of my hands. 7 For God gave us not a spirit of fearfulness; but of power and love and
discipline.
June 14
2 Timothy 1
8
Be not ashamed therefore of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but suffer hardship with
9
the gospel according to the power of God; who saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not
according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus
before times eternal, 10 but hath now been manifested by the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who
abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel,
June 15
2 Timothy 1
11
whereunto I was appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher. 12 For which cause I suffer also
these things: yet I am not ashamed; for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he
is able to guard that which I have committed unto him against that day. 13 Hold the pattern of sound
words which thou hast heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14
That good thing which
15
was committed untothee guard through the Holy Spirit which dwelleth in us. This thou knowest, that all
that are in Asia turned away from me; of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
June 16
2 Timothy 1
16
The Lord grant mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus: for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed
of my chain; 17 but, when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently, and found me 18 (the Lord grant unto
him to find mercy of the Lord in that day); and in how many things he ministered at Ephesus, thou
knowest very well.)

June 17
2 Timothy 2

Thou therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things which
thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be
able to teach others also.
June 18
2 Timothy 2
3
Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier on service entangleth himself in
the affairs of this life; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier. 5 And if also a man contend
in the games, he is not crowned, except he have contended lawfully. 6 The husbandman that laboreth
must be the first to partake of the fruits. 7 Consider what I say; for the Lord shall give thee understanding
in all things.
June 19
2 Timothy 2
8
Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel: 9 wherein I
suffer hardship unto bonds, as a malefactor; but the word of God is not bound.
June 20
2 Timothy 2
10
Therefore I endure all things for the elects sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in
Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 Faithful is the saying: For if we died with him, we shall also live with
him:
12
if we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us:
13
if we are
14
faithless, he abideth faithful; for he cannot deny himself. Of these things put them in remembrance,
charging them in the sight of the Lord, that they strive not about words, to no profit, to the subverting of
them that hear.
June 21
2 Timothy 2
15
Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
16
handling aright the word of truth. But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in
50

ungodliness, 17 and their word will eat as doth a gangrene: of whom is Hymenus and Philetus; 18 men
who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already, and overthrow the faith
of some.
June 22
2 Timothy 2
19
Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his:
20
and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness. Now in a great
house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto
honor, and some unto dishonor. 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto
honor, sanctified, meet for the masters use, prepared unto every good work.
June 23
2 Timothy 2
22
But flee youthful lusts, and follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the
Lord out of a pure heart.
23
But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender
strifes. 24 And the Lords servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing, 25 in
meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto
the knowledge of the truth, 26 and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having
been taken captive by him unto his will.
June 24
2 Timothy 3
1
But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of
money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 without natural affection,
implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, puffed up,
5
lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power
thereof: from these also turn away. 6 For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly
women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts, 7 ever learning, and never able to come to the
knowledge of the truth. 8 And even as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also withstand
the truth; men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for
their folly shall be evident unto all men, as theirs also came to be.
June 25
2 Timothy 3
51

10
But thou didst follow my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love,
11
patience, persecutions, sufferings; what things befell me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what
persecutions I endured: and out of them all the Lord delivered me. 12 Yea, and all that would live godly in
Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13
But evil men and impostors shall wax worse and worse, deceiving
14
and being deceived. But abide thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of,
15
knowing of whom thou hast learned them; and that from a babe thou hast known the sacred writings
which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
June 26

Every scripture inspired of God is also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction
which is in righteousness:
good work.

2 Timothy 4
1
I charge thee in the sight of God, and of Christ Jesus, who shall judge the living and the dead, and by
his appearing and his kingdom: 2 preach the word; be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke,
exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure the sound
4
doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts; and will turn
away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto fables. 5 But be thou sober in all things, suffer
hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thy ministry.
June 28
2 Timothy 4
6
For I am already being offered, and the time of my departure is come. 7 I have fought the good fight, I
have finished the course, I have kept the faith: 8 henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of
righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give to me at that day; and not to me only, but
also to all them that have loved his appearing. 9 Give diligence to come shortly unto me: 10 for Demas
forsook me, having loved this present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to
Dalmatia.
June 29
2 Timothy 4
52

11
Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee; for he is useful to me for
12
13
ministering. But Tychicus I sent to Ephesus. The cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus, bring when
thou comest, and the books, especially the parchments. 14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil:
the Lord will render to him according to his works: 15 of whom do thou also beware; for he greatly
16
withstood our words. At my first defence no one took my part, but all forsook me: may it not be laid to
their account.
June 30
2 Timothy 4
17
But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me; that through me the message might be fully
18
proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. The
Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will save me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be the
glory for ever and ever. Amen. 19 Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus. 20 Erastus
remained at Corinth: but Trophimus I left at Miletus sick. 21 Give diligence to come before winter. Eubulus
saluteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.22 The Lord be with thy spirit.
Grace be with you.

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints that are at Ephesus, and the
faithful in Christ Jesus: 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ. 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with every spiritual
blessing in the heavenly places in Christ: 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world,
that we should be holy and without blemish before him in love: 5 having foreordained us unto adoption as
sons through Jesus Christ unto himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 to the praise of the
glory of his grace, which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved:
July 2
Ephesians 1
7
in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to
the riches of his grace, 8 which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, 9 making
known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him

10
unto a dispensation of the fulness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the
heavens, and the things upon the earth; in him, I say, 11 in whom also we were made a heritage, having
been foreordained according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his
will; 12 to the end that we should be unto the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ: 13 in
whom ye also, having heard the word of the truth, the gospel of your salvation,in whom, having also
believed, ye were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 which is an earnest of our inheritance, unto
the redemption of Gods own possession, unto the praise of his glory.
July 4
Ephesians 1
15
For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and the love
which ye show toward all the saints,

prayers;
17
16
cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you a spirit of
wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; 18 having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that ye
may know what is the hope of his calling, what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the
saints, 19 and what the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to that
working of the strength of his might
20
which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead,

21
and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenlyplaces, far above all rule, and authority, and
power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to
come: 22 and he put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things to the
church,
23
which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
July 5
Ephesians 1
1
And you did he make alive, when ye were dead through your trespasses and sins, 2 wherein ye once
walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the powers of the air, of the spirit
3
that now worketh in the sons of disobedience; among whom we also all once lived in the lusts of our
flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the
rest:
July 6
Ephesians 1
54

4
but God, being rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5 even when we were dead
6
through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace have ye been saved), and raised
us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus: 7 that in the ages to
come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus:
July 8
Ephesians 1
8
for by grace have ye been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not of
works, that no man should glory.
July 9
Ephesians 1
10
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God afore prepared that we
should walk in them.
July 10
Ephesians 2
11
Wherefore remember, that once ye, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that
which is called Circumcision, in the flesh, made by hands; 12 that ye were at that time separate from
Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise,
having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus ye that once were far off are
made nigh in the blood of Christ.
July 11
Ephesians 2
14
For he is our peace, who made both one, and brake down the middle wall of partition, 15 having
abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; that he might
create in himself of the two one new man, so making peace; 16 and might reconcile them both in one
body unto God through the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17 and he came and preached peace
to you that were far off, and peace to them that were nigh: 18 for through him we both have our access
in one Spirit unto the Father.
July 12

Ephesians 2
19
So then ye are no more strangers and sojourners, but ye are fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the
household of God,
20
being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself
21
being the chief corner stone; in whom each several building, fitly framed together, groweth into a holy
temple in the Lord;22 in whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

Ephesians 3
1
For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus in behalf of you Gentiles, if so be that ye have
3
heard of the dispensation of that grace of God which was given me to you-ward; how that by revelation
was made known unto me the mystery, as I wrote before in few words, 4 whereby, when ye read, ye can
perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ; 5 which in other generations was not made known
unto the sons of men, as it hath now been revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit;
wit, that the Gentiles are fellow-heirs, and fellow-members of the body, and fellow-partakers of the
promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel,
to
July 14
Ephesians 3
7
Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me
according to the working of his power. 8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, was this grace
given, to preach unto the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; 9 and to make all men see what is
the dispensation of the mystery which for ages hath been hid in God who created all things; 10 to the
intent that now unto the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places might be made known
through the church the manifold wisdom of God, 11 according to the eternal purpose which he purposed
in Christ Jesus our Lord:
12
in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.
56

July 15
Ephesians 3
13
Wherefore I ask that ye may not faint at my tribulations for you, which are your glory. 14 For this
cause I bow my knees unto the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is
16
named, that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that ye may be strengthened with
17
power through his Spirit in the inward man; that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the
end that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be strong to apprehend with all the saints what is
19
the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which passeth knowledge,
that ye may be filled unto all the fullness of God.
July 16
Ephesians 3
20
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according
to the power that worketh in us, 21 unto him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus unto all
generations for ever and ever. Amen.
July 17
Ephesians 4
1
I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beseech you to walk worthily of the calling wherewith ye were
called, 2 with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 giving
diligence to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as
also ye were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father
of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all. 7 But unto each one of us was the grace given according
to the measure of the gift of Christ.
July 18
Ephesians 4
8
Wherefore he saith, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, And gave gifts unto
9
men. (Now this, He ascended, what is it but that he also descended into the lower parts of the
earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill
all things.)
57

July 19
Ephesians 4
11
And he gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and
teachers; 12 for the perfecting of the saints, unto the work of ministering, unto the building up of the
body of Christ: 13 till we all attain unto the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God,
unto a fullgrown man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 that we may be no
longer children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, in
craftiness, after the wiles of error; 15 but speaking truth in love, may grow up in all things into him, who
is the head, even Christ; 16 from whom all the body fitly framed and knit together through that which
every joint supplieth, according to the working in due measure of each several part, maketh the increase
of the body unto the building up of itself in love.
July 20
Ephesians 4
17
This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye no longer walk as the Gentiles also walk, in the
vanity of their mind, 18 being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God, because of
the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their heart; 19 who being past feeling gave
themselves up to lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
20
But ye did not so learn
21
Christ; if so be that ye heard him, and were taught in him, even as truth is in Jesus: 22 that ye put
away, as concerning your former manner of life, the old man, that waxeth corrupt after the lusts of
deceit; 23 and that ye be renewed in the spirit of your mind,24 and put on the new man, that after God
hath been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.
July 21
Ephesians 4
25
Wherefore, putting away falsehood, speak ye truth each one with his neighbor: for we are members
one of another.26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
place to the devil.
28
27
neither give
Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the
thing that is good, that he may have whereof to give to him that hath need. 29 Let no corrupt speech
proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for edifying as the need may be, that it may give grace
to them that hear. 30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, in whom ye were sealed unto the day of
redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and railing, be put away from you,
with all malice: 32 and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, even as God also
in Christ forgave you.

Ephesians 5
1
Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children; 2 and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you,
and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell. 3 But
fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh
saints; 4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, or jesting, which are not befitting: but rather giving of
thanks. 5 For this ye know of a surety, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is
an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
July 23
Ephesians 5
6
Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon
7
the sons of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them; For ye were once darkness, but are
now light in the Lord: walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and
righteousness and truth), 10 proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord; 11 and have no fellowship with
the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them; 12 for the things which are done by them
in secret it is a shame even to speak of.
13
But all things when they are reproved are made manifest by
14
the light: for everything that is made manifest is light. Wherefore he saith, Awake, thou that sleepest,
and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine upon thee.

Ephesians 5
22
Wives, be in subjection unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23
For the husband is the head of

24
the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body. But as the
church is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their husbands in everything.
July 27
Ephesians 5
25
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;
26
that he
27
might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the
church to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be
holy and without blemish.
28
Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies.
He that loveth his own wife loveth himself:
29
for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and
30
cherisheth it, even as Christ also the church; because we are members of his body. 31 For this cause
shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one
flesh. 32 This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church. 33 Nevertheless do ye
also severally love each one his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she fear her husband.
July 28
Ephesians 6
1
Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honor thy father and mother (which is the
first commandment with promise), 3 that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the
earth. 4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but nurture them in the chastening and
admonition of the Lord.
July 29
Ephesians 6
5
Servants, be obedient unto them that according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling,
in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; 6 not in the way of eyeservice, as men-pleasers; but as
servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; 7 with good will doing service, as unto the Lord,
and not unto men:8 knowing that whatsoever good thing each one doeth, the same shall he receive again
9
from the Lord, whether he be bond or free. And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, and
forbear threatening: knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no
respect of persons with him.

Ephesians 6
10
Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.
11
Put on the whole armor of God, that
12
ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood,
but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the
13
spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Wherefore take up the whole armor of God, that
ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
14
Stand therefore, having
girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16
15
and having shod your
withal taking up the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall

17
be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of
the Spirit, which is the word of God:
August 1
Ephesians 6
18
with all prayer and supplication praying at all seasons in the Spirit, and watching thereunto in all
perseverance and supplication for all the saints, 19 And on my behalf, that utterance may be given unto
me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an
ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
August 2
Ephesians 6
21
But that ye also may know my affairs, how I do, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister in
the Lord, shall make known to you all things:
22
whom I have sent unto you for this very purpose, that ye
may know our state, and that he may comfort your hearts.
23
Peace be to the brethren, and love with
24
faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus
Christ with a love incorruptible.

I Corinthians 1
1
Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother, unto
the church of God which is at Corinth, even them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints,
with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, their Lord and ours: 3 Grace to
4
you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God always concerning you,
for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus; 5 that in everything ye were enriched in him, in
all utterance and all knowledge; 6 even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
61

August 4
I Corinthians 1
7
so that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ; 8 who shall also
confirm you unto the end, that ye be unreproveable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is faithful,
through whom ye were called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
August 5
I Corinthians 1
10
Now I beseech you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the
same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfected together in the same
mind and in the same judgment. 11 For it hath been signified unto me concerning you, my brethren, by
them that are of the household of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.12 Now this I mean, that
each one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. 13 Is Christ
divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized into the name of Paul? 14 I thank God that I
15
baptized none of you, save Crispus and Gaius; lest any man should say that ye were baptized into my
name. 16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any
other. 17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the
cross of Christ should be made void.
August 6
I Corinthians 1
18
For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us who are saved it is the
power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And the discernment of the
discerning will I bring to nought.
August 7
I Corinthians 1
62

20
Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish
21
the wisdom of the world? For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom knew not
God, it was Gods good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save them that
believe.
22
Seeing that Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom:
23
but we preach Christ
24
crucified, unto Jews a stumbling block, and unto Gentiles foolishness; but unto them that are called,
both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
August 8
I Corinthians 1
25
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than
men.
26
For behold your calling, brethren, that not many wise after the flesh, not many mighty, not many
27
noble, are called: but God chose the foolish things of the world, that he might put to shame them that
are wise; and God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are
strong; 28 and the base things of the world, and the things that are despised, did God choose, yea and
the things that are not, that he might bring to nought the things that are: 29 that no flesh should glory
before God.
August 9
I Corinthians 1
30
But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who was made unto us wisdom from God, and righteousness and
sanctification, and redemption:

August 10
I Corinthians 2
1
And I, brethren, when I came unto you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom,
2
proclaiming to you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus
3
Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my
speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and
of power: 5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 6 We speak
wisdom, however, among them that are fullgrown: yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of
7
this world, who are coming to nought: but we speak Gods wisdom in a mystery, even the wisdom that
hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory: 8 which none of the rulers of
this world hath known: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory:
August 11
63

I Corinthians 2
but as it is written, Things which eye saw not, and ear heard not, And which entered not into the
heart of man, Whatsoever things God prepared for them that love him.
August 12
I Corinthians 2
10
But unto us God revealed them through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep
things of God. 11 For who among men knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of the man, which is
in him? even so the things of God none knoweth, save the Spirit of God. 12 But we received, not the spirit
of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we might know the things that were freely given to us
of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in words which mans wisdom teacheth, but which the Spirit
teacheth; combining spiritual things with spiritual words. 14 Now the natural man receiveth not the things
of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are
spiritually judged. 15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, and he himself is judged of no man. 16 For
who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
August 13
I Corinthians 3
1
And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, as unto babes in
Christ. 2 I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able to bear it: nay, not even now are ye
able; 3 for ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you jealousy and strife, are ye not carnal, and
do ye not walk after the manner of men? 4 For when one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of
Apollos; are ye not men? 5 What then is Apollos? and what is Paul? Ministers through whom ye believed;
and each as the Lord gave to him. 6 I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7 So then
neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
August 14
I Corinthians 3
8
Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: but each shall receive his own reward according to
his own labor. 9 For we are Gods fellow-workers: ye are Gods husbandry, Gods building.
10
According to
64

the grace of God which was given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder I laid a foundation; and another
buildeth thereon. But let each man take heed how he buildeth thereon. 11 For other foundation can no
man lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12
But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold,
13
silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble; each mans work shall be made manifest: for the day shall
declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each mans work of what sort it
is. 14 If any mans work shall abide which he built thereon, he shall receive a reward.
August 15
I Corinthians 3
15
If any mans work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as through
fire. 16 Know ye not that ye are a temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17 If any man
destroyeth the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and such are
ye. 18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man thinketh that he is wise among you in this world, let him
become a fool, that he may become wise.
August 16
I Corinthians 3
19
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He that taketh the wise in their
craftiness:
20
and again, The Lord knoweth the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.
let no one glory in men. For all things are yours;
22
21
Wherefore

life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;

Gods.

and ye are Christs; and Christ is
August 17
I Corinthians 3
Let a man so account of us, as of ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of
God. Here, moreover, it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. 3 But with me it is a very
small thing that I should be judged of you, or of mans judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self. 4 For I
know nothing against myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.
2
August 17
I Corinthians 4
65

5
Wherefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who will both bring to light the
hidden things of darkness, and make manifest the counsels of the hearts; and then shall each man have
his praise from God. 6 Now these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and Apollos for
your sakes; that in us ye might learn not to go beyond the things which are written; that no one of you
7
be puffed up for the one against the other. For who maketh thee to differ? and what hast thou that
thou didst not receive? but if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory as if thou hadst not received
it? 8 Already are ye filled, already ye are become rich, ye have come to reign without us: yea and I would
that ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.
August 18
I I Corinthians 4
9
For, I think, God hath set forth us the apostles last of all, as men doomed to death: for we are
made a spectacle unto the world, both to angels and men. 10 We are fools for Christs sake, but ye are
wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye have glory, but we have dishonor. 11 Even unto this
present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace; 12 and we toil, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we
13
endure; being defamed, we entreat: we are made as the filth of the world, the offscouring of all things,
even until now.
August 19
I I Corinthians 4
14
I write not these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. 15 For though
ye have ten thousand tutors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I begat you
through the gospel. 16 I beseech you therefore, be ye imitators of me. 17 For this cause have I sent unto
you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who shall put you in remembrance of my
ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every church. 18 Now some are puffed up, as
though I were not coming to you. 19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will; and I will know, not
the word of them that are puffed up, but the power. 20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in
power. 21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?
August 20
II Corinthians 5
66

1
It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even among
2
the Gentiles, that one of you hath his fathers wife. And ye are puffed up, and did not rather mourn,
that he that had done this deed might be taken away from among you. 3 For I verily, being absent in
body but present in spirit, have already as though I were present judged him that hath so wrought this
thing, 4 in the name of our Lord Jesus, ye being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our
Lord Jesus, 5 to deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be
saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
August 21
I I Corinthians 5
6
Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out the
old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been
sacrificed, even Christ:8 wherefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of
malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
August 22
I Corinthians 5
9
I wrote unto you in my epistle to have no company with fornicators; 10 not at all meaning with the
fornicators of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs
go out of the world: 11 but as it is, I wrote unto you not to keep company, if any man that is named a
brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with
such a one no, not to eat. 12 For what have I to do with judging them that are without? Do not ye judge
them that are within?
13
But them that are without God judgeth. Put away the wicked man from among
yourselves.
August 23
I Corinthians 6
1
Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before
the saints? 2 Or know ye not that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are
3
ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more,
4
things that pertain to this life? If then ye have to judge things pertaining to this life, do ye set them to
judge who are of no account in the church? 5 I say this to move you to shame. What, cannot there
6
be found among you one wise man who shall be able to decide between his brethren, but brother goeth
7
to law with brother, and that before unbelievers? Nay, already it is altogether a defect in you, that ye
8
have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather take wrong? why not rather be defrauded? Nay, but ye
yourselves do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.
67
August 24
I Corinthians 6
9
Or know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither
fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with men, 10 nor
thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
August 25
I Corinthians 6
11
And such were some of you: but ye were washed, but ye were sanctified, but ye were justified in
the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God. 12 All things are lawful for me; but not all
things are expedient. All things are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under the power of
any. 13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall bring to nought both it and them. But
the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body: 14 and God both raised the
Lord, and will raise up us through his power.
August 26
I Corinthians 6
15
Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? shall I then take away the members of
Christ, and make them members of a harlot? God forbid. 16 Or know ye not that he that is joined to a
harlot is one body? for, The twain, saith he, shall become one flesh. 17 But he that is joined unto the Lord
is one spirit. 18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth
fornication sinneth against his own body. 19 Or know ye not that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit
20
which is in you, which ye have from God? and ye are not your own; for ye were bought with a price:
glorify God therefore in your body.
August 27
I Corinthians 7
68

1
Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 But,
because of fornications, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own
husband. 3 Let the husband render unto the wife her due: and likewise also the wife unto the
4
husband. The wife hath not power over her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband
hath not power over his own body, but the wife. 5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be by consent
for a season, that ye may give yourselves unto prayer, and may be together again, that Satan tempt you
6
not because of your incontinency. But this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.
August 28
I Corinthians 7
7
Yet I would that all men were even as I myself. Howbeit each man hath his own gift from God, one
after this manner, and another after that. 8 But I say to the unmarried and to widows, It is good for them
if they abide even as I. 9 But if they have not continency, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to
burn.
August 29
I Corinthians 7
10
But unto the married I give charge, yea not I, but the Lord, That the wife depart not from her
husband
11
(but should she depart, let her remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband); and
that the husband leave not his wife. 12 But to the rest say I, not the Lord: If any brother hath an
unbelieving wife, and she is content to dwell with him, let him not leave her. 13 And the woman that hath
an unbelieving husband, and he is content to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband. 14 For the
unbelieving husband is sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified in the brother: else
were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
August 30
I Corinthians 7
15
Yet if the unbelieving departeth, let him depart: the brother or the sister is not under bondage in
such cases: but God hath called us in peace. 16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save
17
thy husband? or how knowest thou, O husband, whether thou shalt save thy wife? Only, as the Lord
hath distributed to each man, as God hath called each, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all the
churches.
August 31

I Corinthians 7
18
Was any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Hath any been called in
uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.
19
Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing; but
20
the keeping of the commandments of God. Let each man abide in that calling wherein he was
called. 21 Wast thou called being a bondservant? care not for it: nay, even if thou canst become free,
22
use it rather. For he that was called in the Lord being a bondservant, is the Lords freedman: likewise
he that was called being free, is Christs bondservant.
September 1
I Corinthians 7
23
Ye were bought with a price; become not bondservants of men.
24
Brethren, let each man, wherein he
25
was called, therein abide with God. Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: but I
give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be trustworthy. 26 I think therefore
that this is good by reason of the distress that is upon us, namely, that it is good for a man to be as he
is. 27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
8
But shouldest thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Yet such
shall have tribulation in the flesh: and I would spare you.
September 2
I Corinthians 7
29
But this I say, brethren, the time is shortened, that henceforth both those that have wives may
be as though they had none; 30 and those that weep, as though they wept not; and those that rejoice, as
though they rejoiced not; and those that buy, as though they possessed not; 31 and those that use the
world, as not using it to the full: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
September 3
I Corinthians 7
32
But I would have you to be free from cares. He that is unmarried is careful for the things of the
33
Lord, how he may please the Lord: but he that is married is careful for the things of the world, how he
may please his wife, 34 and is divided. So also the woman that is unmarried and the virgin is careful for
the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married is careful
35
for the things of the world, how she may please her husband. And this I say for your own profit; not
that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is seemly, and that ye may attend upon the Lord
without distraction. 36 But if any man thinketh that he behaveth himself unseemly toward his
virgin daughter, if she be past the flower of her age, and if need so requireth, let him do what he will; he
sinneth not; let them marry. 37 But he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath
power as touching his own will, and hath determined this in his own heart, to keep his own
70

virgin daughter, shall do well. 38 So then both he that giveth his own virgin daughter in marriage doeth
39
well; and he that giveth her not in marriage shall do better. A wife is bound for so long time as her
husband liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is free to be married to whom she will; only in the
Lord. 40 But she is happier if she abide as she is, after my judgment: and I think that I also have the
Spirit of God.
September 4
I Corinthians 8
1
Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge
puffeth up, but love edifieth. 2 If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything, he knoweth not yet as he
3
ought to know; but if any man loveth God, the same is known by him.
September 5
I Corinthians 8
4
Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in
the world, and that there is no God but one. 5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in
heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many; 6 yet to us there is one God, the Father, of
whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we
through him. 7 Howbeit there is not in all men that knowledge: but some, being used until now to the
idol, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled. 8 But food will not
commend us to God: neither, if we eat not, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better. 9 But
take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to the weak. 10 For if a man
see thee who hast knowledge sitting at meat in an idols temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be
emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols? 11 For through thy knowledge he that is weak perisheth, the
12
brother for whose sake Christ died. And thus, sinning against the brethren, and wounding their
13
conscience when it is weak, ye sin against Christ. Wherefore, if meat causeth my brother to stumble, I
will eat no flesh for evermore, that I cause not my brother to stumble.

1
Am I not free? am I not an apostle? have I not seen Jesus our Lord? are not ye my work in the
2
Lord? If to others I am not an apostle, yet at least I am to you; for the seal of mine apostleship are ye
in the Lord.3 My defence to them that examine me is this. 4 Have we no right to eat and to drink? 5 Have
we no right to lead about a wife that is a believer, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of
the Lord, and Cephas?6 Or I only and Barnabas, have we not a right to forbear working? 7 What soldier
ever serveth at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not the fruit thereof? or who
feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? 8 Do I speak these things after the manner of
men? or saith not the law also the same? 9 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the
ox when he treadeth out the corn. Is it for the oxen that God careth, 10 or saith he it assuredly for our
sake? Yea, for our sake it was written: because he that ploweth ought to plow in hope, and he that
thresheth, to thresh in hope of partaking.
September 7
I Corinthians 9
11
If we sowed unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we shall reap your carnal things? 12 If
others partake of this right over you, do not we yet more? Nevertheless we did not use this right; but we
bear all things, that we may cause no hindrance to the gospel of Christ. 13 Know ye not that they that
minister about sacred things eat of the things of the temple, and they that wait upon the altar have their
portion with the altar? 14 Even so did the Lord ordain that they that proclaim the gospel should live of the
gospel. 15 But I have used none of these things: and I write not these things that it may be so done in my
case; for it were good for me rather to die, than that any man should make my glorying void. 16 For if I
preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of; for necessity is laid upon me; for woe is unto me, if I
preach not the gospel. 17 For if I do this of mine own will, I have a reward: but if not of mine own will, I
have a stewardship intrusted to me. 18 What then is my reward? That, when I preach the gospel, I may
make the gospel without charge, so as not to use to the full my right in the gospel.

I Corinthians 9
19
For though I was free from all men, I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the
more. 20 And to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to them that are under the law, as
21
under the law, not being myself under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; to them
that are without law, as without law, not being without law to God, but under law to Christ, that I might
gain them that are without law. 22 To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak: I am become
all things to all men, that I may by all means save some.
I may be a joint partaker thereof.

23
And I do all things for the gospels sake, that
Know ye not that they that run in a race run all, but one receiveth
the prize? Even so run; that ye may attain.
25
And every man that striveth in the games exerciseth self-
control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26
I therefore
72

so run, as not uncertainly; so fight I, as not beating the air: 27 but I buffet my body, and bring it into
bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
September 9
I Corinthians 10
1
For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed
through the sea; 2 and were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 3 and did all eat the
same spiritual food; 4 and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of a spiritual rock that
followed them: and the rock was Christ. 5 Howbeit with most of them God was not well pleased: for they
6
were overthrown in the wilderness. Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not
lust after evil things, as they also lusted. 7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written,
The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. 8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some
of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. 9 Neither let us make trial of the Lord,
as some of them made trial, and perished by the serpents. 10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them
murmured, and perished by the destroyer. 11 Now these things happened unto them by way of example;
and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come.
September 10
I Corinthians 10
12
Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. 13 There hath no temptation taken
you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye
are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure
it. 14 Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. 15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. 16 The
cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break,
17
is it not a communion of the body of Christ? seeing that we, who are many, are one bread, one body:
for we all partake of the one bread.
18
Behold Israel after the flesh: have not they that eat the sacrifices
19
communion with the altar? What say I then? that a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol
is anything? 20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to
21
God: and I would not that ye should have communion with demons. Ye cannot drink the cup of the
Lord, and the cup of demons: ye cannot partake of the table of the Lord, and of the table of
demons. 22 Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he? 23 All things are lawful; but
not all things are expedient. All things are lawful; but not all things edify.

Let no man seek his own, but each his neighbors good.

asking no question for conscience sake; for the earth is the Lords, and the fulness thereof. If one of
them that believe not biddeth you to a feast, and ye are disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you,
eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
28
But if any man say unto you, This hath been offered in
sacrifice, eat not, for his sake that showed it, and for conscience sake: 29 conscience, I say, not thine
own, but the others; for why is my liberty judged by another conscience? 30 If I partake with
thankfulness, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?

Be ye imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ. 2 Now I praise you that ye remember me in all
things, and hold fast the traditions, even as I delivered them to you. 3 But I would have you know, that
the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is
God. 4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoreth his head. 5 But every
woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoreth her head; for it is one and the same
thing as if she were shaven. 6 For if a woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn: but if it is a shame to a
woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled. 7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head veiled,
forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. 8 For the man is
not of the woman; but the woman of the man: 9 for neither was the man created for the woman; but the
woman for the man:
of the angels
10
for this cause ought the woman to have a sign of authority on her head, because
September 13
I Corinthians 11
11
Nevertheless, neither is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman, in the
Lord. 12 For as the woman is of the man, so is the man also by the woman; but all things are of
God.
13
Judge ye in yourselves: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God unveiled?
14
Doth not even
15
nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a dishonor to him? But if a woman have long
hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. 16 But if any man seemeth to be
contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
17
But in giving you this charge, I
praise you not, that ye come together not for the better but for the worse. 18 For first of all, when ye
come together in the church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and I partly believe it. 19 For there
74

must be also factions among you, that they that are approved may be made manifest among
you. 20 When therefore ye assemble yourselves together, it is not possible to eat the Lords supper:
in your eating each one taketh before other his own supper; and one is hungry, and another is
21
for
drunken. 22 What, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and put
them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you? In this I praise you not.
September 14
I Corinthians 11
23
For I received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in
which he was betrayed took bread; 24 and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, This is my
25
body, which is for you: this do in remembrance of me. In like manner also the cup, after supper,
saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of
me. 26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink the cup, ye proclaim the Lords death till he
come.27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner,
shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man prove himself, and so let him eat of
29
the bread, and drink of the cup. For he that eateth and drinketh, eateth and drinketh judgment unto
himself, if he discern not the body. 30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few
sleep. 31 But if we discerned ourselves, we should not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are
chastened of the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world. 33 Wherefore, my brethren, when
ye come together to eat, wait one for another. 34 If any man is hungry, let him eat at home; that your
coming together be not unto judgment. And the rest will I set in order whensoever I come.

Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. 2 Ye know that when ye were
3
Gentiles ye were led away unto those dumb idols, howsoever ye might be led. Wherefore I make known
unto you, that no man speaking in the Spirit of God saith, Jesus is anathema; and no man can say, Jesus
4
5
is Lord, but in the Holy Spirit. Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are
diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of workings, but the same God,
who worketh all things in all. 7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit
withal. 8 For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of
75

knowledge, according to the same Spirit: 9 to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of
10
healings, in the one Spirit; and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to
another discernings of spirits: to another divers kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of
tongues:

but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he

For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are

But now they

are many members, but one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee: or
again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
September 17
I Corinthians 12
22
Nay, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are
necessary: 23 and those parts of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow
more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness; 24 whereas our
comely partshave no need: but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to
that part which lacked; 25 that there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have
the same care one for another.26 And whether one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it;
or one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. 27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and
severally members thereof. 28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets,
thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, divers kinds of tongues. 29 Are
30
all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are allworkers of miracles? have all gifts of healings? do
31
all speak with tongues? do all interpret? But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most
excellent way show I unto you.

September 18
I Corinthians 13

If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a
clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I
have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And if I bestow all my goods
to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profiteth me nothing. 4 Love
5
suffereth long, and is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave
6
itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not provoked, taketh not account of evil; rejoiceth not in
7
unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things,
endureth all things. 8 Love never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall be done away;
whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whetherthere be knowledge, it shall be done away. 9 For we
know in part, and we prophesy in part; 10 but when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part
shall be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child: now
that I am become a man, I have put away childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then
face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known.

13
But now
September 19
I Corinthians 14
1
Follow after love; yet desire earnestly spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. 2 For he that
speaketh in a tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God; for no man understandeth; but in the spirit
he speaketh mysteries. 3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men edification, and exhortation, and
consolation. 4 He that speaketh in a tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the
church. 5 Now I would have you all speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy: and greater
is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may
6
receive edifying. But now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you,
unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of
7
teaching? Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they give not a distinction in
the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped? 8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain voice,
9
who shall prepare himself for war? So also ye, unless ye utter by the tongue speech easy to be
understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will be speaking into the air. 10 There are, it
11
may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and no kind is without signification. If then I know not
the meaning of the voice, I shall be to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will be a
barbarian unto me.

September 20
I Corinthians 14
12So also ye, since ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may abound unto the edifying of the
church.
13
Wherefore let him that speaketh in a tongue pray that he may interpret.
14
For if I pray in a
15
tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. What is it then? I will pray with the spirit,
and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the
understanding also. 16 Else if thou bless with the spirit, how shall he that filleth the place of the unlearned
say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest?

Brethren, be not children in mind: yet in malice be
In the law it is written, By men of strange tongues and by the lips of

22
strangers will I speak unto this people; and not even thus will they hear me, saith the Lord. Wherefore
tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to the unbelieving: but prophesying is for a sign, not
to the unbelieving, but to them that believe. 23 If therefore the whole church be assembled together and
all speak with tongues, and there come in men unlearned or unbelieving, will they not say that ye are
mad? 24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one unbelieving or unlearned, he is reproved by all, he is
judged by all; 25 the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so he will fall down on his face and
worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed.
September 21
I Corinthians 14
26
What is it then, brethren? When ye come together, each one hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a
revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
27
If any man
28
speaketh in a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most three, and that in turn; and let one interpret: but
if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to
God. 29 And let the prophets speak by two or three, and let the others discern. 30 But if a revelation be
made to another sitting by, let the first keep silence.31 For ye all can prophesy one by one, that all may
learn, and all may be exhorted;
32
and the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets;
33
for God is
34
not a God of confusion, but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints, let the women keep silence in
the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as also saith the
35
law. And if they would learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is shameful for
a woman to speak in the church. 36 What? was it from you that the word of God went forth? or came it
37
unto you alone? If any man thinketh himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him take knowledge of the
38
things which I write unto you, that they are the commandment of the Lord. But if any man is ignorant,
let him be ignorant.

September 22
I Corinthians 15
1
Now I make known unto you brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye received,
wherein also ye stand, 2 by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you,
except ye believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received: that Christ
died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on
5
the third day according to the scriptures; and that he appeared to Cephas; then to the twelve; then he
appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some
are fallen asleep;7 then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles; 8 and last of all, as to
the child untimely born, he appeared to me also. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to
be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
September 23
I Corinthians 15
10
But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not found
vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with
me. 11 Whether then it be I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed. 12 Now if Christ is preached that
he hath been raised from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the
dead? 13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hath Christ been raised: 14 and if Christ hath
not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith also is vain. 15 Yea, and we are found false
witnesses of God; because we witnessed of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be
that the dead are not raised. 16 For if the dead are not raised, neither hath Christ been raised: 17 and if
Christ hath not been raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
18
Then they also that are fallen
19
asleep in Christ have perished. If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most
pitiable. 20 But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
September 24
I Corinthians 15
21
22
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die,
so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that
are Christs, at his coming.
24
Then cometh the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even
79

the Father; when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power.
25
For he must reign, till he
26
27
hath put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be abolished is death. For, He put
all things in subjection under his feet. But when he saith, All things are put in subjection, it is evident that
he is excepted who did subject all things unto him. 28 And when all things have been subjected unto him,
then shall the Son also himself be subjected to him that did subject all things unto him, that God may be
all in all. 29 Else what shall they do that are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why
then are they baptized for them?
September 25
I Corinthians 15
30
Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32
31
I protest by that glorying in you, brethren, which I
If after the manner of men I fought with beasts at Ephesus,
what doth it profit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
33
Be not
34
deceived: Evil companionships corrupt good morals. Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not; for
some have no knowledge of God: I speak this to move you to shame. 35 But some one will say, How are
the dead raised? and with what manner of body do they come?
36
Thou foolish one, that which thou
37
thyself sowest is not quickened except it die: and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body
that shall be, but a bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other kind; 38 but God giveth it a body
even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own. 39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is
one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes. 40 There
are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the
terrestrial is another. 41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory
of the stars; for one star differeth from another star in glory.
September 26
I Corinthians 15
42
So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: 43 it is sown
in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: 44 it is sown a natural body;
it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.
45
So also it is written,
46
The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. Howbeit that is not
47
first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual. The first man is of the
earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven. 48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as
49
is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy,
we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot

51
inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery:
We all shall not 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
80

changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 But
when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then
55
shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy
victory? O death, where is thy sting?
56
The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
57
but
58
thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Wherefore, my beloved
brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know
that your labor is not vain in the Lord.

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do
ye. 2 Upon the first day of the week let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no
collections be made when I come. 3 And when I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve, them will I send
with letters to carry your bounty unto Jerusalem: 4 and if it be meet for me to go also, they shall go with
me. 5 But I will come unto you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia; for I pass through
Macedonia; 6 but with you it may be that I shall abide, or even winter, that ye may set me forward on my
journey whithersoever I go. 7 For I do not wish to see you now by the way; for I hope to tarry a while
with you, if the Lord permit. 8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost; 9 for a great door and effectual
is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.10 Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you
without fear; for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do: 11 let no man therefore despise him. But
set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come unto me: for I expect him with the brethren.

themselves to minister unto the saints),

yours: acknowledge ye therefore them that are such. 19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and

Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus that are at Philippi, with the
bishops and deacons: 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 I thank
my God upon all my remembrance of you, 4 always in every supplication of mine on behalf of you all
5
making my supplication with joy, for your fellowship in furtherance of the gospel from the first day until
6
now; being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will perfect it until the
7
day of Jesus Christ: even as it is right for me to be thus minded on behalf of you all, because I have you
in my heart, inasmuch as, both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are
8
partakers with me of grace. For God is my witness, how I long after you all in the tender mercies of
9
Christ Jesus. And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all
discernment;
10
so that ye may approve the things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and void of
offence unto the day of Christ;
11
being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus
Christ, unto the glory and praise of God

Now I would have you know, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather
unto the progress of the gospel;
13
so that my bonds became manifest in Christ throughout the whole
prtorian guard, and to all the rest;
14
and that most of the brethren in the Lord, being confident through
my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear. 15 Some indeed preach
Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
for the defence of the gospel;

What then? only that in every way, whether in pretence or in truth,
Christ is proclaimed; and therein I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. 19 For I know that this shall turn out to
my salvation, through your supplication and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20 according to my
earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing shall I be put to shame, but that with all boldness, as
always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.
October 1
Philippians 1
21
For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
22
But if to live in the flesh,if this shall bring fruit from
my work, then what I shall choose I know not.
23
But I am in a strait betwixt the two, having the desire
82

to depart and be with Christ; for it is very far better:
24
yet to abide in the flesh is more needful for your
25
sake. And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide, yea, and abide with you all, for your
progress and joy in the faith; 26 that your glorying may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my
27
presence with you again. Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I
come and see you or be absent, I may hear of your state, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul
striving for the faith of the gospel; 28 and in nothing affrighted by the adversaries: which is for them an
evident token of perdition, but of your salvation, and that from God;
29
because to you it hath been
granted in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer in his behalf:

If there is therefore any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if
any tender mercies and compassions, 2 make full my joy, that ye be of the same mind, having the same
love, being of one accord, of one mind;
doing nothing through faction or through vainglory, but in
lowliness of mind each counting other better than himself; 4 not looking each of you to his own things,
5
but each of you also to the things of others. Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ
Jesus: 6 who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be
grasped, 7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men; 8 and
being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, yea, the
death of the cross.

So then, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only,

13
but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God
who worketh in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure. 14 Do all things without murmurings
and questionings: 15 that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God without blemish in the
16
midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom ye are seen as lights in the world, holding
forth the word of life; that I may have whereof to glory in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain
neither labor in vain. 17 Yea, and if I am offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and
rejoice with you all:

and in the same manner do ye also joy, and rejoice with me.

and fellow-soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need;
26
since he longed after you all, and
27
was sore troubled, because ye had heard that he was sick: for indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but
God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow upon
sorrow.
28
I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice,
and that I may be the less sorrowful. 29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy; and hold such in
honor:30 because for the work of Christ he came nigh unto death, hazarding his life to supply that which
was lacking in your service toward me.

Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not irksome,
but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the concision: 3 for we
are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God, and glory in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence
in the flesh: 4 though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh: if any other man thinketh to have
confidence in the flesh, I yet more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of
6
Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; as touching zeal, persecuting the
7
church; as touching the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless. Howbeit what things were
gain to me, these have I counted loss for Christ.

October 11
Philippians 3

Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord:
for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ, 9 and be
found in him, not having a righteousness of mine own, even that which is of the law, but that which is
through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the
power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death;
11
if
12
by any means I may attain unto the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained, or
am already made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which also I was laid
hold on by Christ Jesus.13 Brethren, I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing I do,
forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,
on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye are otherwise minded,
this also shall God reveal unto you: 16 only, whereunto we have attained, by that samerule let us
walk. 17 Brethren, be ye imitators together of me, and mark them that so walk even as ye have us for an
ensample.
18
For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the
enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 whose end is perdition, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in
their shame, who mind earthly things. 20 For our citizenship is in heaven; whence also we wait for a
Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, that it may
be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working whereby he is able even to subject all
things unto himself.

Wherefore, my brethren beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my
beloved. 2 I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in the Lord. 3 Yea, I beseech
thee also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also,
and the rest of my fellow-workers, whose names are in the book of life. 4 Rejoice in the Lord always:
5
again I will say, Rejoice. Let your forbearance be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. In nothing
be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made
known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and
your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honorable, whatsoever things are
just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if
there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 9 The things which ye both learned
10
and received and heard and saw in me, these things do: and the God of peace shall be with you. But I
rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at length ye have revived your thought for me; wherein ye did
indeed take thought, but ye lacked opportunity.11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned,
12
in whatsoever state I am, therein to be content. I know how to be abased, and I know also how to
abound: in everything and in all things have I learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both
to abound and to be in want.
13
I can do all things in him that strengtheneth me.

Philippians 4

Howbeit ye did well that ye had fellowship with my affliction. 15 And ye yourselves also know, ye
Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church had
fellowship with me in the matter of giving and receiving but ye only; 16 for even in Thessalonica ye sent
once and again unto my need. 17 Not that I seek for the gift; but I seek for the fruit that increaseth to
your account. 18 But I have all things, and abound: I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the
things that came from you, an odor of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God. 19 And
my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. 20 Now unto our
21
God and Father be the glory for ever and ever. Amen. Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren
that are with me salute you. 22 All the saints salute you, especially they that are of Csars

household. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

II Corinthians 1

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of
God which is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in the whole of Achaia: 2 Grace to you and peace from
God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the
4
Father of mercies and God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all our affliction, that we may be able to
comfort them that are in any affliction, through the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of
5
God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound unto us, even so our comfort also aboundeth through
Christ. 6 But whether we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; or whether we are comforted,
it is for your comfort, which worketh in the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also
7
suffer: and our hope for you is stedfast; knowing that, as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so also are
ye of the comfort.
October 17
II Corinthians 1
8
For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction which befell us in Asia, that we
were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, insomuch that we despaired even of life: 9 yea, we
ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in
God who raiseth the dead: 10 who delivered us out of so great a death, and will deliver: on whom we
11
have set our hope that he will also still deliver us; ye also helping together on our behalf by your
supplication; that, for the gift bestowed upon us by means of many, thanks may be given by many
persons on our behalf. 12 For our glorying is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and
sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we behaved ourselves in the world, and
more abundantly to you-ward. 13 For we write no other things unto you, than what ye read or even
acknowledge, and I hope ye will acknowledge unto the end: 14 as also ye did acknowledge us in part, that
we are your glorying, even as ye also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.
15
And in this confidence I
16
was minded to come first unto you, that ye might have a second benefit; and by you to pass into
Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come unto you, and of you to be set forward on my journey
unto Juda.

When I therefore was thus minded, did I show fickleness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose
according to the flesh, that with me there should be the yea yea and the nay nay?
18
But as God is
19
faithful, our word toward you is not yea and nay. For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached
among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not yea and nay, but in him is yea. 20 For
87

how many soever be the promises of God, in him is the yea: wherefore also through him is the Amen,
unto the glory of God through us. 21 Now he that establisheth us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is

who also sealed us, and gave us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

But I determined this for myself, that I would not come again to you with sorrow. For if I make you
sorry, who then is he that maketh me glad but he that is made sorry by me? 3 And I wrote this very
thing, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence
4
in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto
you with many tears; not that ye should be made sorry, but that ye might know the love which I have
more abundantly unto you. 5 But if any hath caused sorrow, he hath caused sorrow, not to me, but in
part (that I press not too heavily) to you all. 6 Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which
was inflicted by the many; 7 so that contrariwise ye should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by
any means such a one should be swallowed up with his overmuch sorrow.
October 20
II Corinthians 2
8
Wherefore I beseech you to confirm your love toward him. 9 For to this end also did I write, that I might
know the proof of you, whether ye are obedient in all things. 10 But to whom ye forgive anything,
I forgive also: for what I also have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, for your sakes have I forgiven
it in the presence of Christ;
11
that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not
12
ignorant of his devices. Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was
13
opened unto me in the Lord, I had no relief for my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but
taking my leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia.
14
But thanks be unto God, who always leadeth us
in triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest through us the savor of his knowledge in every place.
15
For we
16
are a sweet savor of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish; to the one a
savor from death unto death; to the other a savor from life unto life. And who is sufficient for these
things? 17 For we are not as the many, corrupting the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in
the sight of God, speak we in Christ.

October 21
II Corinthians 3
1
Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? or need we, as do some, epistles of commendation to
2
you or from you? Ye are our epistle, written in our hearts, known and read of all men; being made
manifest that ye are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the
4
living God; not in tables of stone, but in tables that are hearts of flesh. And such confidence have we
5
through Christ to God-ward: not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from
ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God; 6 who also made us sufficient as ministers of a new covenant;
not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. 7 But if the ministration of
death, written, and engraven on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look
stedfastly upon the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which glory was passing away: 8 how shall not
rather the ministration of the spirit be with glory? 9 For if the ministration of condemnation hath glory,
much rather doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
October 22
II Corinthians 3
10
For verily that which hath been made glorious hath not been made glorious in this respect, by reason
of the glory that surpasseth.
11
For if that which passeth away was with glory, much more that which
12
remaineth is in glory. Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech, 13 and are not as
Moses, who put a veil upon his face, that the children of Israel should not look stedfastly on the end of
that which was passing away: 14 but their minds were hardened: for until this very day at the reading of
the old covenant the same veil remaineth, it not being revealed to them that it is done away in
Christ. 15 But unto this day, whensoever Moses is read, a veil lieth upon their heart. 16 But whensoever it
shall turn to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
17
Now the Lord is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of the
18
Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are
transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.
October 23
II Corinthians 3
1
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we faint not: but we have
renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God
deceitfully; but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every mans conscience in the
89

sight of God. 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled in them that perish: 4 in whom the god of this
world hath blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is
5
the image of God, should not dawn upon them. For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord,
and ourselves as your servants for Jesus sake. 6 Seeing it is God, that said, Light shall shine out of
darkness, who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of
Jesus Christ.
October 24
II Corinthians 4
7
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God,
and not from ourselves;
we are pressed on every side, yet not straitened; perplexed, yet not unto
despair; pursued, yet not forsaken; smitten down, yet not destroyed;
10
always bearing about in the
body the dying of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body. 11 For we who live are
always delivered unto death for Jesus sake, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal
flesh. 12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
October 25
II Corinthians 4
13
But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, I believed, and therefore did I
speak; we also believe, and therefore also we speak;
14
knowing that he that raised up the Lord Jesus
shall raise up us also with Jesus, and shall present us with you. 15 For all things are for your sakes, that
the grace, being multiplied through the many, may cause the thanksgiving to abound unto the glory of
God. 16 Wherefore we faint not; but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed
day by day. 17 For our light affliction, which is for the moment, worketh for us more and more
exceedingly an eternal weight of glory; 18 while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the
things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen
are eternal.
October 26
II Corinthians 5
1
For we know that if the earthly house of our tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building from God, a
2
house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. For verily in this we groan, longing to be clothed
3
upon with our habitation which is from heaven: if so be that being clothed we shall not be found
4
naked. For indeed we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened; not for that we would be
90

unclothed, but that we would be clothed upon, that what is mortal may be swallowed up of life. 5 Now he
that wrought us for this very thing is God, who gave unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
October 27
II Corinthians 5
6
Being therefore always of good courage, and knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are
7
absent from the Lord (for we walk by faith, not by sight); we are of good courage, I say, and are
willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord. 9 Wherefore also we make it
our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well-pleasing unto him. 10 For we must all be made manifest
before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to
what he hath done, whether it be good or bad. 11 Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade
men, but we are made manifest unto God; and I hope that we are made manifest also in your
consciences. 12 We are not again commending ourselves unto you, but speak as giving you occasion of
glorying on our behalf, that ye may have wherewith to answer them that glory in appearance, and not in
heart.
October 28
II Corinthians 5
13
For whether we are beside ourselves, it is unto God; or whether we are of sober mind, it is unto
you. 14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that one died for all, therefore all
died;
15
and he died for all, that they that live should no longer live unto themselves, but unto him who
for their sakes died and rose again.
16
Wherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh: even
though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.
17
Wherefore if any man
is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new. 18 But all
things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave unto us the ministry of
reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto
them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 We are ambassadors
therefore on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beseech you on behalf of Christ,
be ye reconciled to God. 21 Him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; that we might become
the righteousness of God in him.

necessities, in distresses, 5 in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in watchings, in

unfeigned, in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the armor of righteousness on the right hand
and on the left, 8 by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true; 9 as
unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; 10 as
sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all
things. And in a day of salvation did I succor thee: behold, now is the acceptable time; behold,
now is the day of salvation): 3 giving no occasion of stumbling in anything, that our ministration be
not blamed;

Our mouth is open unto you, O Corinthians, our heart is enlarged.
12
Ye are not straitened in us, but ye
are straitened in your own affections. 13 Now for a recompense in like kind (I speak as unto my children),
be ye also enlarged. 14 Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers: for what fellowship have righteousness
and iniquity? or what communion hath light with darkness?
15
And what concord hath Christ with Belial?
16
or what portion hath a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement hath a temple of God with
idols? for we are a temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and
I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Wherefore Come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch no
unclean thing; And I will receive you, 18 And will be to you a Father, And ye shall be to me sons and
daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
1
Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and
spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. 2 Open your hearts to us: we wronged no man, we corrupted
no man, we took advantage of no man. 3 I say it not to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are
in our hearts to die together and live together. 4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my
glorying on your behalf: I am filled with comfort, I overflow with joy in all our affliction. 5 For even when
we were come into Macedonia our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every side;
without were fightings, within were fears.6 Nevertheless he that comforteth the lowly, even God,
comforted us by the coming of Titus; 7 and not by his coming only, but also by the comfort wherewith he
was comforted in you, while he told us your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced
yet more.
November 3
II Corinthians 7
8
For though I made you sorry with my epistle, I do not regret it: though I did regret it (for I see that that
epistle made you sorry, though but for a season), 9 I now rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that
ye were made sorry unto repentance; for ye were made sorry after a godly sort, that ye might suffer loss
by us in nothing. 10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, a repentance which bringeth no
regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
November 4
II Corinthians 7
93

11
For behold, this selfsame thing, that ye were made sorry after a godly sort, what earnest care it
wrought in you, yea what clearing of yourselves, yea what indignation, yea what fear, yea what longing,
12
yea what zeal, yea what avenging! In everything ye approved yourselves to be pure in the matter. So
although I wrote unto you, I wrote not for his cause that did the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered
the wrong, but that your earnest care for us might be made manifest unto you in the sight of
13
God. Therefore we have been comforted: and in our comfort we joyed the more exceedingly for the joy
of Titus, because his spirit hath been refreshed by you all. 14 For if in anything I have gloried to him on
your behalf, I was not put to shame; but as we spake all things to you in truth, so our glorying also
which I made before Titus was found to be truth. 15 And his affection is more abundantly toward you,
while he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.16 I rejoice
that in everything I am of good courage concerning you.
November 4
II Corinthians 8
Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God which hath been given in the
churches of Macedonia; 2 how that in much proof of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep
poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality. 3 For according to their power, I bear witness, yea
and beyond their power, they gave of their own accord, 4 beseeching us with much entreaty in regard of
this grace and the fellowship in the ministering to the saints: 5 and this, not as we had hoped, but first
they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God. 6 Insomuch that we exhorted
Titus, that as he had made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace also.
November 5
II Corinthians 8
7
But as ye abound in everything, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all earnestness,
and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also. 8 I speak not by way of commandment, but
as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love. 9 For ye know the grace of
our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his
poverty might become rich. 10 And herein I give my judgment: for this is expedient for you, who were the
11
first to make a beginning a year ago, not only to do, but also to will. But now complete the doing also;
that as there was the readiness to will, so there may be the completion also out of your ability. 12 For if
the readiness is there, it is acceptable according as a man hath, not according as he hath not.
November 6
II Corinthians 8
94

13
For I say notthis that others may be eased and ye distressed; 14 but by equality: your abundance being
a supply at this present time for their want, that their abundance also may become a supply for your
15
want; that there may be equality: as it is written, He that gathered much had nothing over; and he
that gathered little had no lack.
16
But thanks be to God, who putteth the same earnest care for you into
17
the heart of Titus. For he accepted indeed our exhortation; but being himself very earnest, he went
forth unto you of his own accord. 18 And we have sent together with him the brother whose praise in the
19
gospel is spread through all the churches; and not only so, but who was also appointed by the
churches to travel with us in the matter of this grace, which is ministered by us to the glory of the Lord,
and to show our readiness: 20
November 7
II Corinthians 8
20
Avoiding this, that any man should blame us in the matter of this bounty which is ministered by
us: 21 for we take thought for things honorable, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of
men. 22 And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have many times proved earnest in many
things, but now much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which he hath in
23
you. Whether any inquire about Titus, he is my partner and my fellow-worker to you-ward; or our
brethren, they are the messengers of the churches, they are the glory of Christ. 24 Show ye therefore
unto them in the face of the churches the proof of your love, and of our glorying on your behalf.
November 8
II Corinthians 9
1
For as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you: 2 for I know your
readiness, of which I glory on your behalf to them of Macedonia, that Achaia hath been prepared for a
3
year past; and your zeal hath stirred up very many of them. But I have sent the brethren, that our
glorying on your behalf may not be made void in this respect; that, even as I said, ye may be
prepared: 4 lest by any means, if there come with me any of Macedonia and find you unprepared, we
5
(that we say not, ye) should be put to shame in this confidence. I thought it necessary therefore to
entreat the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your aforepromised
bounty, that the same might be ready as a matter of bounty, and not of extortion.
November 9
II Corinthians 9
6
But this I say, He that soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall
reap also bountifully.
Let each man do according as he hath purposed in his heart: not grudgingly, or of
necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver
95
November 10
II Corinthians 9
8
And God is able to make all grace abound unto you; that ye, having always all sufficiency in
everything, may abound unto every good work: 9 as it is written, He hath scattered abroad, he hath given
to the poor; His righteousness abideth for ever.
10
And he that supplieth seed to the sower and bread for food, shall supply and multiply your seed
for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness: 11 ye being enriched in everything unto all
liberality, which worketh through us thanksgiving to God. 12 For the ministration of this service not only
filleth up the measure of the wants of the saints, but aboundeth also through many thanksgivings unto
God; 13 seeing that through the proving of you by this ministration they glorify God for the obedience of
your confession unto the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution unto them and unto
14
all; while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, long after you by reason of the
exceeding grace of God in you.
November 11
II Corinthians 9
15
Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.
November 12
II Corinthians 10
1
Now I Paul myself entreat you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I who in your presence am
2
lowly among you, but being absent am of good courage toward you: yea, I beseech you, that I may not
when present show courage with the confidence wherewith I count to be bold against some, who count
of us as if we walked according to the flesh.
November 13
96

II Corinthians 10
3
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh 4 (for the weapons of our warfare
5
are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the casting down of strongholds); casting down
imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every
6
thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ; and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience,
when your obedience shall be made full.
November 14
II Corinthians 10
7
Ye look at the things that are before your face. If any man trusteth in himself that he is Christs, let him
8
consider this again with himself, that, even as he is Christs, so also are we. For though I should glory
somewhat abundantly concerning our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for
casting you down), I shall not be put to shame: 9 that I may not seem as if I would terrify you by my
letters.
10
For, His letters, they say, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his
speech of no account.
November 15
II Corinthians 10
11
Let such a one reckon this, that, what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such are we also
in deed when we are present. 12 For we are not bold to number or compare ourselves with certain of
them that commend themselves: but they themselves, measuring themselves by themselves, and
comparing themselves with themselves, are without understanding.
November 16
II Corinthians 10
13
But we will not glory beyond our measure, but according to the measure of the province which God
14
apportioned to us as a measure, to reach even unto you. For we stretch not ourselves overmuch, as
15
though we reached not unto you: for we came even as far as unto you in the gospel of Christ: not
glorying beyond our measure, that is, in other mens labors; but having hope that, as your faith groweth,
we shall be magnified in you according to our province unto further abundance, 16 so as to preach the
gospel even unto the parts beyond you, and not to glory in anothers province in regard of things ready
97

to our hand.
17
But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. 18 For not he that commendeth himself is
approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.
November 17
II Corinthians 11
1
Would that ye could bear with me in a little foolishness: but indeed ye do bear with me. 2 For I am
jealous over you with a godly jealousy: for I espoused you to one husband, that I might present you as a
pure virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, your
minds should be corrupted from the simplicity and the purity that is toward Christ. 4 For if he that cometh
preacheth another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or if ye receive a different spirit, which ye did not
receive, or a different gospel, which ye did not accept, ye do well to bear with him. 5 For I reckon that I
am not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. 6 But though I be rude in speech, yet am I not in
knowledge; nay, in every way have we made this manifest unto you in all things. 7 Or did I commit a sin
in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I preached to you the gospel of God for nought? 8 I
robbed other churches, taking wages of them that I might minister unto you; 9 and when I was present
with you and was in want, I was not a burden on any man; for the brethren, when they came from
Macedonia, supplied the measure of my want; and in everything I kept myself from being burdensome
unto you, and so will I keep myself. 10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this
glorying in the regions of Achaia.
November 18
II Corinthians 11
11
Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth. 12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off
occasion from them that desire an occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as
we. 13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, fashioning themselves into apostles of
Christ. 14 And no marvel; for even Satan fashioneth himself into an angel of light.15 It is no great thing
therefore if his ministers also fashion themselves as ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be
16
according to their works. I say again, Let no man think me foolish; but if ye do, yet as foolish receive
me, that I also may glory a little. 17 That which I speak, I speak not after the Lord, but as in foolishness,
in this confidence of glorying.
18
Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.
with the foolish gladly, being wise yourselves.
20
19
For ye bear
For ye bear with a man, if he bringeth you into bondage,

21
if he devoureth you, if he taketh you captive, if he exalteth himself, if he smiteth you on the face. I
speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet whereinsoever any is bold (I speak in
foolishness), I am bold also.
98
November 19
II Corinthians 11
22
23
Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I. Are
they ministers of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I more; in labors more abundantly, in prisons
more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths oft. 24 Of the Jews five times received I
forty stripes save one.
25
Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a
night and a day have I been in the deep; 26 in journeyings often, in perils of rivers, in perils of
robbers, in perils from my countrymen,in perils from the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the
wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;
27
in labor and travail, in watchings often,
28
in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness. Besides those things that are without,
there is that which presseth upon me daily, anxiety for all the churches. 29 Who is weak, and I am not
weak? who is caused to stumble, and I burn not?
30
If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things that
31
concern my weakness. The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed for evermore knoweth
that I lie not. 32 In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king guarded the city of the Damascenes in
order to take me:
33
and through a window was I let down in a basket by the wall, and escaped his
hands.
November 20
II Corinthians 12
1
I must needs glory, though it is not expedient; but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. 2 I
know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I know not; or whether out of the body,
I know not; God knoweth), such a one caught up even to the third heaven. 3 And I know such a man
(whether in the body, or apart from the body, I know not; God knoweth), 4 how that he was caught up
into Paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. 5 On behalf of such
6
a one will I glory: but on mine own behalf I will not glory, save in my weaknesses. For if I should desire
to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I shall speak the truth: but I forbear, lest any man should account of
me above that which he seeth me to be, or heareth from me. 7 And by reason of the exceeding greatness
of the revelations, that I should not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a
8
messenger of Satan to buffet me, that I should not be exalted overmuch. Concerning this thing I
besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
November 21
99

II Corinthians 12
9
And he hath said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my power is made perfect in weakness.
Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon
me. 10 Wherefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses,
for Christs sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
November 22
II Corinthians 12
1
I am become foolish: ye compelled me; for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing was
I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I am nothing.
12
Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought

13
among you in all patience, by signs and wonders and mighty works. For what is there wherein ye were
made inferior to the rest of the churches, except it be that I myself was not a burden to you? forgive me
this wrong. 14 Behold, this is the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be a burden to you:
for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the
children. 15 And I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I
loved the less?
16
But be it so, I did not myself burden you; but, being crafty, I caught you with
guile. 17 Did I take advantage of you by any one of them whom I have sent unto you? 18 I exhorted Titus,
and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus take any advantage of you? walked we not in the same
spirit? walked we not in the same steps? 19 Ye think all this time that we are excusing ourselves unto you.
In the sight of God speak we in Christ. But all things, beloved, are for your edifying. 20 For I fear, lest by
any means, when I come, I should find you not such as I would, and should myself be found of you such
as ye would not; lest by any means there should bestrife, jealousy, wraths, factions, backbitings,
whisperings, swellings, tumults; 21 lest again when I come my God should humble me before you, and I
should mourn for many of them that have sinned heretofore, and repented not of the uncleanness and
fornication and lasciviousness which they committed.
November 23
II Corinthians 13
1
This is the third time I am coming to you. At the mouth of two witnesses or three shall every word
2
be established. I have said beforehand, and I do say beforehand, as when I was present the second
time, so now, being absent, to them that have sinned heretofore, and to all the rest, that, if I come
again, I will not spare; 3 seeing that ye seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me; who to you-ward is
not weak, but is powerful in you:4 for he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth through the
power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God toward
you. 5 Try your own selves, whether ye are in the faith; prove your own selves. Or know ye not as to your
6
own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you? unless indeed ye be reprobate. But I hope that ye shall know
7
that we are not reprobate. Now we pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we may appear approved,
but that ye may do that which is honorable, though we be as reprobate. 8 For we can do nothing against
the truth, but for the truth. 9 For we rejoice, when we are weak, and ye are strong: this we also pray for,
100

even your perfecting. 10 For this cause I write these things while absent, that I may not when present
deal sharply, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for casting
down. 11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfected; be comforted; be of the same mind; live in peace: and
the God of love and peace shall be with you. 12 Salute one another with a holy kiss. 13 All the saints salute
14
you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, be
with you all.
November 24
Colossians 1
1
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To the saints and
3
faithful brethren in Christ that are at Coloss: Grace to you and peace from God our Father. We give
thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 having heard of your faith in
Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have toward all the saints, 5 because of the hope which is laid up
for you in the heavens, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel, 6 which is come
unto you; even as it is also in all the world bearing fruit and increasing, as it doth in you also, since the
day ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 even as ye learned of Epaphras our beloved fellowservant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, 8 who also declared unto us your love in the
Spirit.
November 25
Colossians 1
9
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray and make request for you, that
ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 to walk
worthily of the Lord unto all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge
of God; 11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, unto all patience and
longsuffering with joy;
12
giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the
inheritance of the saints in light; 13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into
the kingdom of the Son of his love;
November 26
Colossians 1
101

14
in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins:
15
who is the image of the invisible God,
16
the firstborn of all creation; for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth,
things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things
have been created through him, and unto him;
17
and he is before all things, and in him all things
18
consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead;
that in all things he might have the preeminence. 19 For it was the good pleasure of the Father that in
20
him should all the fulness dwell; and through him to reconcile all things unto himself, having made
peace through the blood of his cross; through him, I say, whether things upon the earth, or things in the
heavens.
November 27
Colossians 1
21
And you, being in time past alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil works, 22 yet now hath he
reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and
unreproveable before him: 23 if so be that ye continue in the faith, grounded and stedfast, and not moved
away from the hope of the gospel which ye heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven;
whereof I Paul was made a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my
part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his bodys sake, which is the
church; 25 whereof I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which was given me to
you-ward, to fulfil the word of God,
26
even the mystery which hath been hid for ages and generations:
but now hath it been manifested to his saints,
27
to whom God was pleased to make known what is the
riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom
we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every
man perfect in Christ; 29 whereunto I labor also, striving according to his working, which worketh in me
mightily.
November 28
Colossians 2
For I would have you know how greatly I strive for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as
many as have not seen my face in the flesh; 2 that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit
together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the
3
4
mystery of God, even Christ, in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden. This I
say, that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech. 5 For though I am absent in the flesh,
yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in
Christ. 6 As therefore ye received Christ Jesus the Lord,so walk in him, 7 rooted and builded up in him,
and established in your faith, even as ye were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
102
November 29
Colossians 2
8
Take heed lest there shall be any one that maketh spoil of you through his philosophy and vain deceit,
9
after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ: for in him dwelleth all
the fulness of the Godhead bodily,
10
and in him ye are made full, who is the head of all principality and
11
power: in whom ye were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off
of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ; 12 having been buried with him in baptism, wherein
13
ye were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead. And
you, being dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, you, I say, did he make
alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses; 14 having blotted out the bond written in
ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us: and he hath taken it out of the way, nailing it
to the cross; 15 having despoiled the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly,
triumphing over them in it.
November 30
Colossians 2
16
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a feast day or a new moon or a
sabbath day: 17 which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christs. 18 Let no man rob you
of your prize by a voluntary humility and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he hath
seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding fast the Head, from whom all the body,
being supplied and knit together through the joints and bands, increaseth with the increase of God. 20 If
ye died with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, do ye subject
yourselves to ordinances,
21
Handle not, nor taste, nor touch
22
(all which things are to perish with the
23
using), after the precepts and doctrines of men? Which things have indeed a show of wisdom in willworship, and humility, and severity to the body; but are not of any value against the indulgence of the
flesh.
December 1
Colossians 3
1
If then ye were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on
the right hand of God.
103
December 2
Colossians 3
2
Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are upon the earth. For ye died, and
4
your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall be manifested, then shall ye also
with him be manifested in glory. 5 Put to death therefore your members which are upon the earth:
6
fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry; for which things sake
cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience: 7 wherein ye also once walked, when ye lived in
8
these things; but now do ye also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, railing, shameful speaking
out of your mouth: 9 lie not one to another; seeing that ye have put off the old man with his doings,
December 3
Colossians 3
10
and have put on the new man, that is being renewed unto knowledge after the image of him that
created him:
11
where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian,
Scythian, bondman, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all.
12
Put on therefore, as Gods elect, holy and
beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, longsuffering; 13 forbearing one another,
and forgiving each other, if any man have a complaint against any; even as the Lord forgave you, so also
do ye: 14 and above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfectness.
December 4
Colossians 3
15
And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to the which also ye were called in one body; and be ye
thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one
17
another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts unto God. And
whatsoever ye do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the
Father through him.
December 5
Colossians 3
18
Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love your wives, and be
not bitter against them. 20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing in the
104

Lord. 21 Fathers, provoke not your children, that they be not discouraged. 22 Servants, obey in all things
them that are your masters according to the flesh; not with eye-service, as men-pleasers, but in
singleness of heart, fearing the Lord:
December 6
Colossians 3
23
whatsoever ye do, work heartily, as unto the Lord, and not unto men;
24
knowing that from the Lord

25
ye shall receive the recompense of the inheritance: ye serve the Lord Christ. For he that doeth wrong
shall receive again for the wrong that he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
December 7
Colossians 4
1
Masters, render unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in
heaven. 2 Continue stedfastly in prayer, watching therein with thanksgiving; 3 withal praying for us also,
that God may open unto us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in

December 8
Colossians 4
5
Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. 6 Let your speech be always with
grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer each one. 7 All my affairs shall
Tychicus make known unto you, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-servant in the
Lord: 8 whom I have sent unto you for this very purpose, that ye may know our state, and that he may
comfort your hearts;
December 9
Colossians 4
9
together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known
unto you all things that are done here. 10 Aristarchus my fellow-prisoner saluteth you, and Mark, the
cousin of Barnabas (touching whom ye received commandments; if he come unto you, receive
11
him), and Jesus that is called Justus, who are of the circumcision: these only are my fellow-workers
105

unto the kingdom of God, men that have been a comfort unto me. 12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a
servant of Christ Jesus, saluteth you, always striving for you in his prayers, that ye may stand perfect and
13
fully assured in all the will of God. For I bear him witness, that he hath much labor for you, and for
them in Laodicea, and for them in Hierapolis.
14
Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas salute
15
you. Salute the brethren that are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church that is in their
house. 16 And when this epistle hath been read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the
Laodiceans; and that ye also read the epistle from Laodicea.
17
And say to Archippus, Take heed to the
ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.18 The salutation of me Paul with mine
own hand. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you.
December 10
I Thessalonians 1
1
Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord
Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace. 2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of
you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labor of love and patience of
hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved of God, your
5
election, how that our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit,
and in much assurance; even as ye know what manner of men we showed ourselves toward you for your
sake. 6 And ye became imitators of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with
joy of the Holy Spirit; 7 so that ye became an ensample to all that believe in Macedonia and in
Achaia. 8 For from you hath sounded forth the word of the Lord, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in
9
every place your faith to God-ward is gone forth; so that we need not to speak anything. For they
themselves report concerning us what manner of entering in we had unto you; and how ye turned unto
God from idols, to serve a living and true God, 10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised
from the dead, even Jesus, who delivereth us from the wrath to come.
December 11
I Thessalonians 2
For yourselves, brethren, know our entering in unto you, that it hath not been found vain: 2 but
having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as ye know, at Philippi, we waxed bold in our God to
speak unto you the gospel of God in much conflict. 3 For our exhortation is not of error, nor of
106

uncleanness, nor in guile: 4 but even as we have been approved of God to be intrusted with the gospel,
5
so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God who proveth our hearts. For neither at any time were we
found using words of flattery, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness, God is witness; 6 nor seeking
glory of men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have claimed authority as apostles of
7
8
Christ. But we were gentle in the midst of you, as when a nurse cherisheth her own children: even so,
being affectionately desirous of you, we were well pleased to impart unto you, not the gospel of God
only, but also our own souls, because ye were become very dear to us. 9 For ye remember, brethren, our
labor and travail: working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached unto you
the gospel of God.
December 12
I Thessalonians 2
10
Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and righteously and unblameably we behaved
ourselves toward you that believe: 11 as ye know how we dealt with each one of you, as a father with his
own children, exhorting you, and encouraging you, and testifying, 12 to the end that ye should walk
13
worthily of God, who calleth you into his own kingdom and glory. And for this cause we also thank God
without ceasing, that, when ye received from us the word of the message, even the word of God, ye
accepted it not as the word of men, but, as it is in truth, the word of God, which also worketh in you that
believe.
December 13
I Thessalonians 2
14
For ye, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Juda in Christ Jesus: for
ye also suffered the same things of your own countrymen, even as they did of the Jews; 15 who both
killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove out us, and pleased not God, and are contrary to all
men; 16 forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved; to fill up their sins always: but the
wrath is come upon them to the uttermost. 17 But we, brethren, being bereaved of you for a short
season, in presence not in heart, endeavored the more exceedingly to see your face with great
18
desire: because we would fain have come unto you, I Paul once and again; and Satan hindered us.
December 13
I Thessalonians 1
107

19
For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of glorying? Are not even ye, before our Lord Jesus at his
20
coming? For ye are our glory and our joy.
December 14
I Thessalonians 3
1
Wherefore when we could no longer forbear, we thought it good to be left behind at Athens
alone; 2 and sent Timothy, our brother and Gods minister in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to
3
comfort you concerning your faith; that no man be moved by these afflictions; for yourselves know that
4
hereunto we are appointed. For verily, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to
suffer affliction; even as it came to pass, and ye know. 5 For this cause I also, when I could no longer
forbear, sent that I might know your faith, lest by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our
labor should be in vain. 6 But when Timothy came even now unto us from you, and brought us glad
tidings of your faith and love, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, longing to see us, even
as we also to see you; 7 for this cause, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our distress and
affliction through your faith: 8 for now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.
December 15
I Thessalonians 3
9
For what thanksgiving can we render again unto God for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for
your sakes before our God; 10 night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face, and may
perfect that which is lacking in your faith? 11 Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus,
direct our way unto you: 12 and the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another,
and toward all men, even as we also do toward you; 13 to the end he may establish your hearts
unblameable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
December 16
I Thessalonians 4
1
Finally then, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that, as ye received of us
how ye ought to walk and to please God, even as ye do walk,that ye abound more and more. 2 For ye
know what charge we gave you through the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will of God, even your
sanctification, that ye abstain from fornication; 4 that each one of you know how to possess himself of his
own vessel in sanctification and honor, 5 not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who know not
6
God; that no man transgress, and wrong his brother in the matter: because the Lord is an avenger in all
these things, as also we forewarned you and testified. 7 For God called us not for uncleanness, but in
sanctification. 8 Therefore he that rejecteth, rejecteth not man, but God, who giveth his Holy Spirit unto
you.
108
December 17
I Thessalonians 4
But concerning love of the brethren ye have no need that one write unto you: for ye yourselves
10
are taught of God to love one another; for indeed ye do it toward all the brethren that are in all
Macedonia. But we exhort you, brethren, that ye abound more and more; 11 and that ye study to be
quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your hands, even as we charged you; 12 that ye
may walk becomingly toward them that are without, and may have need of nothing.
December 18
I Thessalonians 4
13
But we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning them that fall asleep; that ye sorrow
not, even as the rest, who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so
them also that are fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 For this we say unto you by the word
of the Lord, that we that are alive, that are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall in no wise precede
them that are fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven, with a shout, with the
17
voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first; then we that
are alive, that are left, shall together with them be caught up 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.
December 19
I Thessalonians 5
1
But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that aught be written unto
you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3 When
they are saying, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman
with child; and they shall in no wise escape. 4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should
5
overtake you as a thief: for ye are all sons of light, and sons of the day: we are not of the night, nor of
6
7
darkness; so then let us not sleep, as do the rest, but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep
sleep in the night; and they that are drunken are drunken in the night. 8 But let us, since we are of the
day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
2
109
December 20
I Thessalonians 5
9
For God appointed us not unto wrath, but unto the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus
10
Christ, who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with
11
12
him. Wherefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as also ye do. But we beseech
you, brethren, to know them that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish
13
you; and to esteem them exceeding highly in love for their works sake. Be at peace among
14
yourselves. And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, encourage the fainthearted, support
the weak, be longsuffering toward all. 15 See that none render unto any one evil for evil; but always
follow after that which is good, one toward another, and toward all.
December 21
I Thessalonians 5
16
Rejoice always; 17 pray without ceasing; 18 in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in
Christ Jesus to you-ward. 19 Quench not the Spirit; 20 despise not prophesyings; 21 prove all things; hold
fast that which is good; 22 abstain from every form of evil.
December 22
I Thessalonians
23
And the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be
preserved entire, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful is he that calleth you,
25
26
27
who will also do it. Brethren, pray for us. Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss. I adjure you by
28
the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the brethren. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
December 23
2 Thessalonians 1
1
Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the
2
3
Lord Jesus Christ; Grace to you and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. We are
110

bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, even as it is meet, for that your faith groweth
4
exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all toward one another aboundeth; so that we ourselves
glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and in the
afflictions which ye endure; 5 which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God; to the end
6
that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: if so be that it is a
7
righteous thing with God to recompense affliction to them that afflict you, and to you that are afflicted
rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power in flaming
fire, 8 rendering vengeance to them that know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel of our Lord
9
Jesus: who shall suffer punishment, even eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the
glory of his might,
December 24
2 Thessalonians 1
10
when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be marvelled at in all them that believed
(because our testimony unto you was believed) in that day. 11 To which end we also pray always for you,
that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfil every desire of goodness and every work of
12
faith, with power; that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to
the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
December 25
2 Thessalonians 2
Now we beseech you, brethren, touching the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering
together unto him; 2 to the end that ye be not quickly shaken from your mind, nor yet be troubled, either
by spirit, or by word, or by epistle as from us, as that the day of the Lord is just at hand;
December 26
2 Thessalonians 2
3
let no man beguile you in any wise: for it will not be, except the falling away come first, and the
man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, 4 he that opposeth and exalteth himself against all that is
called God or that is worshipped; so that he sitteth in the temple of God, setting himself forth as
God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 6 And now ye know that
which restraineth, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season.
111
December 27
2 Thessalonians 2
For the mystery of lawlessness doth already work: only there is one that restraineth now, until he
be taken out of the way. 8 And then shall be revealed the lawless one, whom the Lord Jesus shall slay
9
with the breath of his mouth, and bring to nought by the manifestation of his coming; even he, whose
10
coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all
deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they
might be saved.
December 28
2 Thessalonians 2
11
And for this cause God sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: 12 that
they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 13 But we are
bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, for that God chose you from
the beginning unto salvation in sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: 14 whereunto he called
you through our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
December 29
2 Thessalonians 2
15
So then, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye were taught, whether by word, or
16
by epistle of ours. Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father who loved us and gave us
eternal comfort and good hope through grace, 17 comfort your hearts and establish them in every good
work and word.
December 30
2 Thessalonians 2
112

1
Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also it
is with you; 2 and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and evil men; for all have not faith. 3 But
the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and guard you from the evil one. 4 And we have confidence
in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command. 5 And the Lord
6
direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of Christ. Now we command you,
brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that
walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which they received of us. 7 For yourselves know how ye
ought to imitate us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you; 8 neither did we eat bread for
nought at any mans hand, but in labor and travail, working night and day, that we might not burden any
of you: 9 not because we have not the right, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you, that ye should
imitate us.
December 31
2 Thessalonians 2
10
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, If any will not work, neither let him
eat. For we hear of some that walk among you disorderly, that work not at all, but are
12
busybodies. Now them that are such we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that with
quietness they work, and eat their own bread. 13 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well-doing. 14 And if
any man obeyeth not our word by this epistle, note that man, that ye have no company with him, to the
end that he may be ashamed. 15 And yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a
brother. 16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you
all. 17 The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I
write. 18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
