Luke 24

  12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld
the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at
that which was come to pass.
  13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus,
which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
  14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
  15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned,
Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
  16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
  17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye
have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
  18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art
thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come
to pass there in these days?
  19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning
Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and
all the people:
  20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to
death, and have crucified him.
  21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and
beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
  22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were
early at the sepulchre;
  23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also
seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
  24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it
even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
  25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the
prophets have spoken:
  26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his
glory?
  27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all
the scriptures the things concerning himself.
  28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as
though he would have gone further.
  29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening,
and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
  30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and
blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
  31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of
their sight.
  32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he
talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
  33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the
eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
  34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
  35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of
them in breaking of bread.

Titus 3

  8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm
constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain
good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
  9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and
strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
  10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;
  11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of
himself.
  12 When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto
me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter.
  13 Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that
nothing be wanting unto them.
  14 And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that
they be not unfruitful.
  15 All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith.
Grace be with you all. Amen.

Luke 8

  5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way
side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
  6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered
away, because it lacked moisture.
  7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked
it.
  8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an
hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to
hear, let him hear.
  9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?
  10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of
God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing
they might not understand.
  11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
  12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and
taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be
saved.
  13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with
joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of
temptation fall away.
  14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go
forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and
bring no fruit to perfection.
  15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart,
having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
