Reading 3, Heb 3:12-19 : No one shall have an unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God
\
| Hebrews 3 |
|
| 12 | Take care, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. |
| 13 | But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today, " that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. |
| 14 | For we share in Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end, |
| 15 | while it is said, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion." |
| 16 | Who were they that heard and yet were rebellious? Was it not all those who left Egypt under the leadership of Moses? |
| 17 | And with whom was he provoked forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? |
| 18 | And to whom did he swear that they should never enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? |
| 19 | So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief. |
Gospel, Lk 11:33-36 : Consider whether the light in you is not darkness
| Luke 11 |
|
| 33 | "No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a bushel, but on a stand, that those who enter may see the light. |
| 34 | Your eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is sound, your whole body is full of light; but when it is not sound, your body is full of darkness. |
| 35 | Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. |
| 36 | If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light." |
