## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  2 Thessalonians 2:1–12

  **Show the text**

  1 Now, brothers, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to him, we ask you

  2 not to be quickly shaken in your mind, and not be troubled, either by spirit, or by word, or by letter as if from us, saying that the day of Christ has already come.

  3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of destruction,

  4 he who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself up as God.

  5 Don’t you remember that, when I was still with you, I told you these things?

  6 Now you know what is restraining him, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season.

  7 For the mystery of lawlessness already works. Only there is one who restrains now, until he is taken out of the way.

  8 Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath of his mouth, and destroy by the manifestation of his coming;

  9 even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

  10 and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn’t receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

  11 Because of this, God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie;

  12 that they all might be judged who didn’t believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

- Gospel

  Luke 18:15–17, 26–30

  **Show the text**

  15 They were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

  16 Jesus summoned them, saying, “Allow the little children to come to me, and don’t hinder them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.

  17 Most certainly, I tell you, whoever doesn’t receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”

  26 Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?”

  27 But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”

  28 Peter said, “Look, we have left everything and followed you.”

  29 He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for God’s Kingdom’s sake,

  30 who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the world to come, eternal life.”
