## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  Philippians 1:27–2:4

  **Show the text**

  27 Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

  28 and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.

  29 Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf,

  30 having the same conflict which you saw in me and now hear is in me.

  1 If therefore there is any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,

  2 make my joy full by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;

  3 doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;

  4 each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.

- Gospel

  Luke 12:2–12

  **Show the text**

  2 But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.

  3 Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.

  4 “I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

  5 But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. Yes, I tell you, fear him.

  6 “Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria coins? Not one of them is forgotten by God.

  7 But the very hairs of your head are all counted. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.

  8 “I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, the Son of Man will also confess before the angels of God;

  9 but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of God’s angels.

  10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.

  11 When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer, or what you will say;

  12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you must say.”
