The Twelfth Sunday after
TRINITY
2 Corinthians 3
Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or
need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of
commendation from you?
2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts,
known and read of all men
3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to
be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the
Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the
heart.
4 And such trust have we through Christ to
God-ward
5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to
think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;
6 Who also hath made us able ministers of
the new testament; 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 in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could
not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which
glory was to be done away
8 How shall not the ministration of the
spirit be rather glorious?
9 For if the ministration of condemnation be
glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
10 For even that which was made glorious had
no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
11 For if that which is done away was
glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we
use great plainness of speech
13 And not as Moses, which put a vail over
his face, that the children of Israel
could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished
14 But their minds were blinded for until
this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old
testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
15 But even unto this day, when Moses is
read, the vail is upon their heart.
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the
Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
17 Now the Lord is that Spirit and where the
Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as
in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to
glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Mark 7:31-37
And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon , he came
unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis .
32 And they bring unto him one that was
deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand
upon him.
33 And he took him aside from the multitude,
and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;
34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and
saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 And straightway his ears were opened, and
the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.
36 And he charged them that they should tell
no man but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they
published it;
37 And were beyond measure astonished,
saying, He hath done all things well he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the
dumb to speak.
Have a BLESSED
Sunday! :)
