  1 Thessalonians 2:20–3:8

  **Show the text**

  20 For you are our glory and our joy.

  1 Therefore when we couldn’t stand it any longer, we thought it good to be left behind at Athens alone,

  2 and sent Timothy, our brother and God’s servant in the Good News of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith,

  3 that no one would be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed to this task.

  4 For most certainly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to suffer affliction, even as it happened, and you know.

  5 For this cause I also, when I couldn’t stand it any longer, sent that I might know your faith, for fear that by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor would have been in vain.

  6 But when Timothy came just now to us from you, and brought us glad news of your faith and love, and that you have good memories of us always, longing to see us, even as we also long to see you,

  7 for this cause, brothers, we were comforted over you in all our distress and affliction through your faith.

  8 For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.

- Gospel

  Luke 11:29–33

  **Show the text**

  29 When the multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah, the prophet.

  30 For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will also be to this generation.

  31 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them: for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.

  32 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.

  33 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.
