  **Show the text**

  1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ; To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and servants:

  2 Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

  3 I thank my God whenever I remember you,

  4 always in every request of mine on behalf of you all, making my requests with joy,

  5 for your partnership in furtherance of the Good News from the first day until now;

  6 being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

  7 It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.

- 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.
