For I say unto you, that unto every S. Luke
one which hath shall be given ; and
from him that hath not, even that
he hath shall be taken away from
him. But those mine enemies,
which would not that I should reign
over them, bring hither and slay
them before me.

IF Thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace!-but now they are hid from thine eyes. For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

TAKE heed to yourselves*, lest at S. Luke (To the xxi. 34. ciples.)

any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and That Day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the SON OF MAN.

TAKE this, and divide it among xxii. 17. yourselves :

For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of GoD shall come.

THIS is My BODY which is given for you: this do in remembrance of Me.

This Cup is the New Covenant in My Blood, which is shed for you.

WHETHER is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.— Ye* are they which have continued with Me in My temptations. And I appoint unto you a Kingdom, as My FATHER hath appointed unto Me; that ye may eat and drink at My table in My Kingdom, and sit on Thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

SIMON, Simon,*behold, Satan hath S. Luke (To Peter.) desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

WHEN I sent you* without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing?......

But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in Me,-and He was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning Me have an end.
