  1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

  2 We always give thanks to God for all of you, mentioning you in our prayers,

  3 remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labor of love and perseverance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father.

  4 We know, brothers loved by God, that you are chosen,

  5 and that our Good News came to you not in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and with much assurance. You know what kind of men we showed ourselves to be among you for your sake.

- Gospel

  Luke 9:18–22

  **Show the text**

  18 As he was praying alone, the disciples were with him, and he asked them, “Who do the multitudes say that I am?”

  19 They answered, “ ‘John the Baptizer,’ but others say, ‘Elijah,’ and others, that one of the old prophets has risen again.”

  20 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”

  21 But he warned them, and commanded them to tell this to no one,

  22 saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.”
