Tout 23, 1740

10The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and trust in Him. And all the upright in heart shall glory.

21Also He said to them, "Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand?

22For there is nothing hidden which will not be revealed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light.

23If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear."

24Then He said to them, "Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given.

25For whoever has, to him more will be given; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him."

5But I am poor and needy; Make haste to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not delay.

22And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, "He has Beelzebub," and, "By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons."

23So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: "How can Satan cast out Satan?

24If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

25And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

26And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end.

27No one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.

1Paul and Timothy, bondservants of Jesus Christ, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

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

3I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

4always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy,

5for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now,

6being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

7just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace.

8For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ.

9And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment,

10that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ,

11being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

7Brethren, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

8Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

9He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.

10He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

11But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

11Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul,

12so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them.

13Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches."

14Also there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so.

15And the evil spirit answered and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?"

16Then the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

17This became known both to all Jews and Greeks dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
