SUMMARY:Easter Sunday
DESCRIPTION:The Collect. \nALMIGHTY God\, who through thine only-begotten Son Jesus Christ hast overcome death\, and opened unto us the gate of everlasting life; We humbly beseech thee that\, as by thy special grace preventing us thou dost put into our minds good desires\, so by thy continual help we may bring the same to good effect; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord\, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost ever\, one God\, world without end. Amen. \nThe Epistle. Col. iii. 1. \nIF ye then be risen with Christ\, seek those things which are above\, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above\, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead\, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ\, who is our life\, shall appear\, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. \n\nThe Gospel. St. John xx. 1. \nTHE first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early\, when it was yet dark\, unto the sepulchre\, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre. Then she runneth\, and cometh to Simon Peter\, and to the other disciple\, whom Jesus loved\, and saith unto them\, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre\, and we know not where they have laid him. Peter therefore went forth\, and that other disciple\, and came to the sepulchre. So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter\, and came first to the sepulchre. And he stooping down\, and looking in\, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in. Then cometh Simon Peter following him\, and went into the sepulchre\, and seeth the linen clothes lie\, and the napkin\, that was about his head\, not lying with the linen clothes\, but wrapped together. in a place by itself. Then went in also that other disciple\, which came first to the sepulchre\, and he saw\, and believed. For as yet they knew not the scripture\, that he must rise again from the dead. Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.

SUMMARY:Palm Sunday
DESCRIPTION:The Sunday next before Easter.\nCommonly called Palm Sunday  \n\nThe Collect. \nALMIGHTY and everlasting God\, who of thy tender love towards mankind\, hast sent thy Son\, our Saviour Jesus Christ\, to take upon him our flesh\, and to suffer death upon the cross\, that all mankind should follow the example of his great humility; Mercifully grant\, that we may both follow the example of his patience\, and also be made partakers of his resurrection; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \nThe Epistle. Phil. ii. 5. \nLET this mind be in you\, which was also in Christ Jesus: who\, being in the form of God\, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation\, and took upon him the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man\, he humbled himself\, and became obedient unto death\, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him\, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow\, of things in heaven\, and things in earth\, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord\, to the glory of God the Father. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Matt. xxvii. 1. \nWHEN the morning was come\, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death: and when they had bound him\, they led him away\, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor. Then Judas\, which had betrayed him\, when he saw that he was condemned\, repented himself\, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders\, saying\, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said\, What is that to us? see thou to that. And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple\, and departed\, and went and hanged himself. And the chief priests took the silver pieces\, and said\, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury\, because it is the price of blood. And they took counsel\, and bought with them the potter’s field\, to bury strangers in. Wherefore that field was called\, The field of blood\, unto this day. Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet\, saying\, And they took the thirty pieces of silver\, the price of him that was valued\, whom they of the children of Israel did value and gave them for the potter’s field\, as the Lord appointed me. And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him\, saying\, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him\, Thou sayest. And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders\, he answered nothing. Then said Pilate unto him\, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee? And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly. Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner\, whom they would. And they had then a notable prisoner\, called Barabbas. Therefore when they were gathered together\, Pilate said unto them\, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas\, or Jesus which is called Christ? For he knew that for envy they had delivered him. When he was set down on the judgment seat\, his wife sent unto him\, saying\, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him. But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas\, and destroy Jesus. The governor answered and said unto them\, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said\, Barabbas. Pilate saith unto them\, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him\, Let him be crucified. And the governor said\, Why\, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more\, saying\, Let him be crucified. When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing\, but that rather a tumult was made\, he took water\, and washed his hands before the multitude\, saying\, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it. Then answered all the people\, and said\, His blood be on us\, and on our children. Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus\, he delivered him to be crucified Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall\, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers. And they stripped him\, and put on him a scarlet robe. And when they had platted a crown of thorns\, they put it upon his head\, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him\, and mocked him\, saying\, Hail. King of the Jews! And they spit upon him\, and took the reed\, and smote him on the head. And after that they had mocked him\, they took the robe off from him\, and put his own raiment on him\, and led him away to crucify him. And as they came out\, they found a man of Cyrene\, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross. And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha\, that is to say\, a place of a skull\, they gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof\, he would not drink. And they crucified him\, and parted his garments\, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet\, They parted my garments among them\, and upon my vesture did they cast lots. And sitting down they watched him there; and set up over his head his accusation written\, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Then were there two thieves crucified with him\, one on the right hand\, and another on the left. And they that passed by reviled him\, wagging their heads\, and saying\, Thou that destroyest the temple\, and buildest it in three days\, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God\, come down from the cross. Likewise also the chief priests mocking him\, with the scribes and elders\, said\, He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel\, let him now come down from the cross\, and we will believe him. He trusted in God; let him deliver him now\, if he will have him: for he said\, I am the Son of God. The thieves also\, which were crucified with him\, cast the same in his teeth. Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice\, saying\, Eli\, Eli\, lama sabachthani? that is to say\, My God\, my God\, why hast thou forsaken me? Some of them that stood there\, when they heard that\, said\, This man calleth for Elias. And straightway one of them ran\, and took a spunge\, and filled it with vinegar\, and put it on a reed\, and gave him to drink. The rest said\, Let be\, let us see whether Elias will come to save him. Jesus\, when he had cried again with a loud voice\, yielded up the ghost. And\, behold\, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake\, and the rocks rent; and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose\, and came out of the graves after his resurrection\, and went into the holy city\, and appeared unto many. Now when the centurion\, and they that were with him\, watching Jesus\, saw the earthquake\, and those things that were done\, they feared greatly\, saying\, Truly this was the Son of God.

SUMMARY:Lent V - Passion Sunday
DESCRIPTION:PASSIONTIDE \nThe Fifth Sunday in Lent.\nCommonly called Passion Sunday \n\nThe Collect. \nWE beseech thee\, Almighty God\, mercifully to look upon thy people; that by thy great goodness they may be governed and preserved evermore\, both in body and soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. Heb. ix. 11. \nCHRIST being come an high priest of good things to come\, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle\, not made with hands\, that is to say\, not of this building; neither by the blood of goats and calves\, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place\, having obtained eternal redemption for us. For if the blood of bulls and of goats\, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean\, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: how much more shall the blood of Christ\, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God\, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament\, that by means of death\, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament\, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. \n\nThe Gospel. St. John viii. 46. \nJESUS said\, Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth\, why do ye not believe me? He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not\, because ye are not of God. Then answered the Jews\, and said unto him\, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan\, and hast a devil? Jesus answered\, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father\, and ye do dishonour me. And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. Verily\, verily\, I say unto you\, If a man keep my saying\, he shall never see death. Then said the Jews unto him\, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead\, and the prophets; and thou sayest\, if a man keep my saying\, he shall never taste of death. Art thou greater than our father Abraham\, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? Jesus answered\, If I honour myself\, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say\, that he is your God: yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say\, I know him not\, I shall be a liar like unto you; but I know him\, and keep his saying. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it\, and was glad. Then said the Jews unto him\, Thou art not yet fifty years old\, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them\, Verily\, verily\, I say unto you\, Before Abraham was\, I AM. Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself\, and went out of the temple.

SUMMARY:Lent IV - Laetare Sunday
DESCRIPTION:The Fourth Sunday in Lent. \n\nThe Collect. \nGRANT\, we beseech thee\, Almighty God\, that we\, who for our evil deeds do worthily deserve to be punished\, by the comfort of thy grace may mercifully be relieved; through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. Gal. iv. 21. \nTELL me\, ye that desire to be under the law\, do ye not hear the law? For it is written\, that Abraham had two sons\, the one by a bond-maid\, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bond woman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai\, which gendereth to bondage\, which is Agar. For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia\, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is\, and is in bondage with her children. But Jerusalem which is above is free\, which is the mother of us all. For it is written\, Rejoice\, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry\, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband. Now we\, brethren\, as Isaac was\, are the children of promise. But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit\, even so it is now. Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bond woman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. So then\, brethren\, we are not children of the bondwoman\, but of the free. \n\nThe Gospel. St. John vi. 1. \nJESUS went over the sea of Galilee\, which is the sea of Tiberias. And a great multitude followed him\, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased. And Jesus went up into a mountain\, and there he sat with his disciples. And the passover\, a feast of the Jews\, was nigh. When Jesus then lifted up his eyes\, and saw a great company come unto him\, he saith unto Philip\, Whence shall we buy bread\, that these may eat? And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do. Philip answered him\, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them\, that every one of them may take a little. One of his disciples\, Andrew\, Simon Peter’s brother\, saith unto him\, There is a lad here\, which bath five barley loaves\, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? And Jesus said\, Make the men sit down\, Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down\, in number about five thousand; And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks\, he distributed to the disciples\, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. When they were filled\, he said unto his disciples\, Gather up the fragments that remain\, that nothing be lost. Therefore they gathered them together\, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves\, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. Then those men\, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did\, said\, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

SUMMARY:Lent III
DESCRIPTION:The Third Sunday in Lent. \n\nThe Collect. \nWE beseech thee\, Almighty God\, look upon the hearty desires of thy humble servants\, and stretch forth the right hand of thy Majesty\, to be our defence against all our enemies; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. Ephes. v. 1. \nBE ye therefore followers of God\, as dear children; and walk in love\, as Christ also hath loved us\, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour. But fornication\, and all uncleanness\, or covetousness\, let it not be once named among you\, as becometh saints; neither filthiness\, nor foolish talking\, nor jesting\, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye know\, that no whore-monger\, nor unclean person\, nor covetous man\, who is an idolater\, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them. For ye were sometimes dark-ness\, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness\, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Wherefore he saith\, Awake thou that sleepest\, and arise from the dead. and Christ shall give thee light. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Luke xi. 14. \nJESUS was casting out a devil\, and it was dumb. And it came to pass\, when the devil was gone out\, the dumb spake; and the people wondered. But some of them said\, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils. And others\, tempting him\, sought of him a sign from heaven. But he\, knowing their thoughts\, said unto them\, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth. If Satan also be divided against himself\, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub. And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils\, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges. But if I with the finger of God cast out devils\, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. When a strong man armed keepeth his palace\, his goods are in peace: but when a stronger than he shall come upon him\, and overcome him\, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted\, and divideth his spoils. He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth. When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man\, he walketh through dry places\, seeking rest; and finding none\, he saith\, I will return unto my house whence I came out. And when he cometh\, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he\, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in\, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. And it came to pass\, as he spake these things\, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice\, and said unto him\, Blessed is the womb that bare thee\, and the paps which thou hast sucked. But he said\, Yea rather\, blessed are they that hear the word of God\, and keep it.

SUMMARY:Lent II
DESCRIPTION:The Second Sunday in Lent \n\nThe Collect. \nALMIGHTY God\, who seest that we have no power of ourselves to help ourselves; Keep us both outwardly in our bodies\, and inwardly in our souls; that we may be defended from all adversities which may happen to the body\, and from all evil thoughts which may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. 1 Thess. iv. 1. \nWE beseech you\, brethren\, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus\, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God\, so ye would abound more and more. For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. For this is the will of God\, even your sanctification\, that ye should abstain from fornication: that every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; not in the lust of concupiscence\, even as the Gentiles which know not God: that no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such\, as we also have forewarned you and testified. For God hath not called us unto uncleanness\, but unto holiness. He therefore that despiseth\, despiseth not man\, but God\, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Matt. xv. 21. \nJESUS went thence\, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon. And\, behold\, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts\, and cried unto him\, saying\, Have mercy on me\, O Lord\, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil. But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him\, saying\, Send her away; for she crieth after us. But he answered and said\, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Then came she and worshipped him\, saying\, Lord\, help me. But he answered and said\, It is not meet to take the children’s bread\, and to cast it to dogs. And she said. Truth Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table. Then Jesus answered and said unto her\, O woman\, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour

SUMMARY:Lent I
DESCRIPTION:The First Sunday in Lent. \n\nThe Collect. \nO LORD\, who for our sake didst fast forty days and forty nights; Give us grace to use such abstinence\, that\, our flesh being subdued to the Spirit\, we may ever obey thy godly motions in righteousness\, and true holiness\, to thy honour and glory\, who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost\, one God\, world without end. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. 2 Cor. vi. 1. \nWE then\, as workers together with him\, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. (For he saith\, I have heard three in a time accepted\, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold\, now is the accepted time; behold\, now is the day of salvation.) Giving no offence in any thing\, that the ministry be not blamed: but in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God\, in much patience\, in afflictions\, in necessities\, in distresses\, in stripes\, in imprisonments\, in tumults\, in labours\, in watchings\, in fastings; by pureness\, by knowledge\, by long-suffering\, by kindness\, by the Holy Ghost\, by love unfeigned\, by the word of truth\, by the power of God\, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left\, by honour and dishonour\, by evil report and good report: as deceivers\, and yet true; as unknown\, and yet well known; as dying\, and\, behold\, we live; as chastened\, and not killed; as sorrowful\, yet alway rejoicing; as poor\, yet making many rich; as having nothing\, and yet possessing all things. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Matt. iv. 1. \nTHEN was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights\, he was afterward an hungred. And when the tempter came to him\, he said\, If thou be the Son of God\, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said\, It is written\, Man shall not live by bread alone\, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city\, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple\, and saith unto him\, If thou be the Son of God\, cast thyself down: for it is written\, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up\, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him\, It is written again\, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Again\, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain\, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world\, and the glory of them; and saith unto him\, All these things will I give thee\, if thou wilt fail down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him\, Get thee hence\, Satan: for it is written\, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God\, and him only shalt thou serve. Then the devil leaveth him\, and\, behold\, angels came and ministered unto him.

SUMMARY:Quinquagesima
DESCRIPTION:The Sunday called Quinquagesima\,  \nor the next Sunday before Lent. \n\nThe Collect. \nOLORD\, who hast taught us that all our doings without charity are nothing worth; Send thy Holy Ghost\, and pour into our hearts that most excellent gift of charity\, the very bond of peace and of all virtues\, without which whosoever liveth is counted dead before thee. Grant this for thine only Son Jesus Christ’s sake. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. 1 Cor. xiii. 1. \nTHOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels\, and have not charity\, I am become as sounding brass\, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy\, and understand all mysteries\, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith\, so that I could remove mountains\, and have not charity\, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor\, and though I give my body to be burned\, and have not charity\, it profiteth me nothing. Charity suffereth long\, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself\, is not puffed up\, doth not behave itself unseemly\, seeketh not her own\, is not easily provoked\, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity\, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things\, believeth all things\, hopeth all things\, endureth all things. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies\, they shall fail; whether there be tongues\, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge\, it shall vanish away. For we know in part\, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come\, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child\, I spake as a child\, I understood as a child\, I thought as a child: but when I became a man\, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass\, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith\, hope\, charity\, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Luke xviii. 31. \nTHEN Jesus took unto him the twelve\, and said unto them\, Behold\, we go up to Jerusalem\, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished. For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles\, and shall be mocked\, and spitefully entreated\, and spitted on: and they shall scourge him\, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again. And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them\, neither knew they the things which were spoken. And it came to pass\, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho\, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging: and hearing the multitude pass by\, he asked what it meant. And they told him\, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by. And he cried\, saying\, Jesus\, thou son of David. have mercy on me. And they which went before rebuked him\, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more\, Thou son of David\, have mercy on me. And Jesus stood. and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near\, he asked him\, saying\, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said\, Lord\, that I may receive my sight. And Jesus said unto him\, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee. And immediately he received his sight\, and followed him\, glorifying God: and all the people\, when they saw it\, gave praise unto God.

SUMMARY:Sexagesima
DESCRIPTION:The Sunday called Sexagesima\,  \nor the second Sunday before Lent \n\nThe Collect. \nOLORD God\, who seest that we put not our trust in any thing that we do; Mercifully grant that by thy power we may be defended against all adversity; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. 2 Cor. xi. 19. \nYE suffer fools gladly\, seeing ye yourselves are wise. For ye suffer\, if a man bring you into bondage\, if a man devour you\, if a man take of you\, if a man exalt himself\, if a man smite you on the face. I speak as concerning reproach\, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold\, (I speak foolishly\,) I am bold also. Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I. Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant\, in stripes above measure\, in prisons more frequent\, in deaths oft. Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one. Thrice was I beaten with rods\, once was I stoned\, thrice I suffered shipwreck\, a night and a day I have been in the deep in journeyings often\, in perils of waters\, in perils of robbers\, in perils by mine own countrymen\, in perils by the heathen\, in perils in the city\, in perils in the wilderness\, in perils in the sea\, in perils among false brethren; in weariness and painfulness\, in watchings often\, in hunger and thirst\, in fastings often\, in cold and nakedness. Beside those things that are without\, that which cometh upon me daily\, the care of all the churches. Who is weak\, and I am not weak? who is offended\, and I burn not? If I must needs glory\, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ\, which is blessed for evermore\, knoweth that I lie not. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Luke viii. 4. \nWHEN much people were gathered together\, and were come to him out of every city\, he spake by a parable: 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. And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up\, it withered away\, because it lacked moisture. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it\, and choked it. 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. And his disciples asked him\, saying\, What might this parable be? 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. Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 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. 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 or temptation fall away. 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. 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.

SUMMARY:Septuagesima
DESCRIPTION:The Sunday called Septuagesima\,  \nor the third Sunday before Lent \n\nThe Collect. \nOLORD\, we beseech thee favourably to hear the prayers of thy people; that we\, who are justly punished for our offences\, may be mercifully delivered by thy goodness\, for the glory of thy Name; through Jesus Christ our Saviour\, who liveth and\, reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost ever\, one God\, world without end. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. 1 Cor. ix. 24. \nKNOW ye not that they which run in a race run all\, but one receiveth the prize? So run\, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run\, not as uncertainly; so fight I\, not as one that beateth the air: but I keep under my body\, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means\, when I have preached to others\, I myself should be a castaway. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Matt. xx. 1. \nTHE kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder\, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard\, And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day\, he sent them into his vineyard. And he went out about the third hour\, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace\, and said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard\, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way. Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour and did likewise. And about the eleventh hour he went out\, and found others standing idle\, and saith unto them\, Why stand ye here all the day idle? They say unto him\, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them\, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right\, that shall ye receive. So when even was come\, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward\, Call the labourers\, and give them their hire\, beginning from the last unto the first. And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour\, they received every man a penny. But when the first came\, they supposed that they should have received more; and they like wise received every man a penny. And when they had received it\, they murmured against the goodman of the house\, saying\, These last have wrought but one hour\, and thou hast made them equal unto us\, which have borne the burden and heat of the day. But he answered one of them\, and said\, Friend\, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny? Take that thine is\, and go thy way: I will give unto this last\, even as unto thee. Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil\, because I am good? So the last shall be first\, and the first last: for many be called\, but few chosen.

SUMMARY:Epiphany V
DESCRIPTION:The Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany. \n\nThe Collect. \nOLORD\, we beseech thee to keep thy Church and household continually in thy true religion; that they who do lean only upon the hope of thy heavenly grace may evermore be defended by thy mighty power; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. Col. iii. 12. \nPUT on therefore\, as the elect of God\, holy and beloved\, bowels of mercies\, kindness\, humbleness of mind\, meekness\, longsuffering; forbearing one another\, and forgiving one another\, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you\, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity\, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts\, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs\, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed\, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus\, giving thanks to God and the Father by him. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Matt. xiii. 24. \nTHE kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: but while men slept\, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat\, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up\, and brought forth fruit\, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him\, Sir\, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them\, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him\, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?. But he said\, Nay lest while ye gather up the tares\, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers\, Gather ye together first the tares\, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

SUMMARY:Candlemas (Epiphany IV)
DESCRIPTION:The Presentation of Christ in the Temple\,\ncommonly called\nThe Purification of Saint Mary the Virgin. \n\nThe Collect. \nALMIGHTY and everliving God\, we humbly beseech thy Majesty\, that\, as thy only-begotten Son was this day presented in the temple in substance of our flesh\, so we may be presented unto thee with pure and clean hearts\, by the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \n\nFor the Epistle. Mal. iii. 1. \nBEHOLD\, I will send my messenger\, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord\, whom ye seek\, shall suddenly come to his temple\, even the messenger of the covenant\, whom ye delight in: behold\, he shall come\, saith the Lord of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire\, and like fullers’ sope: and he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi\, and purge them as gold and silver\, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord\, as in the days of old\, and as in former years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers\, and against the adulterers\, and against false swearers\, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages\, the widow\, and the fatherless\, and that turn aside the stranger from his right\, and fear not me\, saith the Lord of hosts. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Luke ii. 22. \nAND when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished\, they brought him to Jerusalem\, to present him to the Lord; (as it is written in the law of the Lord\, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;) and to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord\, A pair of turtledoves\, or two young pigeons. And\, behold\, there was a man in Jerusalem\, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the holy Ghost was upon him. And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost\, that he should not see death\, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus\, to do for him after the custom of the law\, then took he him up in his arms\, and blessed God\, and said\, Lord\, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace\, according to thy word: for mine eyes have seen thy salvation\, which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; a light to lighten the Gentiles\, and the glory of thy people Israel. And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken to him. And Simeon blessed them\, and said unto Mary his mother\, Behold\, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against; (yea\, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also\,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. And there was one Anna\, a prophetess\, the daughter of Phanuel\, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age\, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity; and she was a widow of about fourscore and four years\, which departed not from the temple\, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day. And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord. and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem. And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord\, they returned into Galilee\, to their own city Nazareth. And the child grew\, and waxed strong in spirit\, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.

SUMMARY:Epiphany III
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT  \nAlmighty and everlasting God\, mercifully look upon our infirmities\, and in all our dangers and necessities stretch forth thy right hand to help and defend us; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.\n  \nTHE EPISTLE.  Rom. 12. 16-end \nBE not wise in your own conceits.  Recompense to no man evil for evil.  Provide things honest in the sight of all men.  If it be possible\, as much as lieth in you\, live peaceably with all men.  Dearly beloved\, avenge not yourselves\, but rather give place unto wrath; for it is written\, Vengeance is mine; I will repay\, saith the Lord.  Therefore if thine enemy hunger\, feed him; if he thirst\, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.  Be not overcome of evil\, but overcome evil with good.\n             \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. Matth. 8. 1-13 \nWHEN he was come down from the mountain\, great multitudes followed him.  And\, behold\, there came a leper and worshipped him\, saying\, Lord\, if thou wilt\, thou canst make me clean.  And Jesus put forth his hand\, and touched him\, saying\, I will; be thou clean.  And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.  And Jesus saith unto him\, See thou tell no man\, but go thy way\, shew thyself to the priest\, and offer the gift that Moses commanded\, for a testimony unto them.  And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum\, there came unto him a centurion beseeching him\, and saying\, Lord\, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy\, grievously tormented.  And Jesus saith unto him\, I will come and heal him.  The centurion answered and said\, Lord\, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof; but speak the word only\, and my servant shall be healed.  For I am a man under authority\, having soldiers under me: and I say unto this man\, Go\, and he goeth; and to another\, Come\, and he cometh; and to my servant\, Do this\, and he doeth it.  When Jesus heard it\, he marvelled\, and said to them that followed\, Verily I say unto you\, I have not found so great faith\, no\, not in Israel.  And I say unto you\, That many shall come from the east and west\, and shall sit down with Abraham\, and Isaac\, and Jacob\, in the kingdom of heaven.  But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.  And Jesus said unto the centurion\, Go thy way\, and as thou hast believed\, so be it done unto thee.  And his servant was healed in the self-same hour.

SUMMARY:Christmas II (Eve of the Epiphany)
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \n\nAlmighty God\, who madest thy blessed Son to be circumcised\, and obedient to the law for man: Grant us the true circumcision of the Spirit; that\, our hearts\, and all our members\, being mortified from all worldly and carnal lusts\, we may in all things obey thy blessed will; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \n  \nTHE EPISTLE.  Romans 4. 8 \nBLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only\, or upon the uncircumcision also? For we say\, that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision\, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision\, but in uncircumcision. And he received the sign of circumcision\, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised; that he might be the father of all them that believe\, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also: And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only\, but also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham\, which he had being yet uncircumcised. For the promise\, that he should be the heir of the world\, was not to Abraham\, or to his seed\, through the law\, but through the righteousness of faith. For if they which are of the law be heirs\, faith is made void\, and the promise made of none effect. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. Luke 2. 15 \nAND it came  to pass\, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven\, the shepherds said to one another\, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem\, and see this thing which is come to pass\, which the Lord hath made known unto us.  And they came with haste\, and found Mary and Joseph\, and the babe lying in a manger.  And when they had seen it\, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.  And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.  But Mary kept all these things in her heart.  And the shepherds returned\, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen\, as it was told unto them.  And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child\, his name was called JESUS\, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

SUMMARY:Christmas I
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nAlmighty God\, who hast given us thy only-begotten Son to take our nature upon him\, and as at this time to be born of a pure Virgin; Grant that we being regenerate\, and made thy children by adoption and grace\, may daily be renewed by thy Holy Spirit; through our Lord Jesus Christ\, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the same Spirit\, ever one God\, world without end.  Amen. \n  \nTHE EPISTLE.  Gal. 4. 1\nNOW I say\, that the heir\, as long as he is a child\, differeth nothing from a servant\, though he be lord of all; but is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.  Even so we\, when we were children\, were in bondage under the elements of the world: but when the fulness of the time was come\, God sent forth his Son\, made of a woman\, made under the law\, to redeem them that were under the law\, that we might receive the adoption of sons.  And because ye are sons\, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts\, crying\, Abba\, Father.  Wherefore thou art no more a servant\, but a son; and if a son\, then an heir of God\, through Christ. \n  \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. Matth. 1. 18\nTHE birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph\, before they came together\, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.  Then Joseph her husband\, being a just man\, and not willing to make her a publick example\, was minded to put her away privily.  But while he thought on these things\, behold\, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream\, saying\, Joseph\, thou son of David\, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost: and she shall bring forth a son\, and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for he shall save his people from their sins.  (Now all this was done\, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet\, saying\,\n          Behold\, a Virgin shall be with child\, and\n                shall bring forth a Son\,\n          And they shall call his name Emmanuel\,\nwhich being interpreted is\, God with us.)  Then Joseph\, being raised from sleep\, did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him\, and took unto him his wife; and knew her not till she had brought forth her first-born son: and he called his name JESUS.

SUMMARY:Christmas Eve
DESCRIPTION:The Collect. \nO GOD\, who makest us glad with the yearly remembrance of the birth of thine only Son Jesus Christ; Grant that as we joyfully receive him for our Redeemer\, so we may wit sure confidence behold him when he shall come to be our Judge\, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost\, one God\, world with out end. Amen. \nThe Epistle. Titus ii. 11. \nTHE grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men\, teaching us that\, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts\, we should live soberly\, righteously\, and godly\, in this present world; looking for that blessed hope\, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; who gave himself for us\, that he might redeem us from all iniquity\, and purify unto himself a peculiar people\, zealous of good works. These things speak\, and exhort\, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee. \nThe Gospel. St. Luke ii. 1. \nAND it came to pass in those days\, that there went out a decree from Cæsar Augustus\, that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) And all went to be taxed\, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee\, out of the city of Nazareth\, into Judæa\, unto the city of David\, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife\, being great with child. And so it was\, that\, while they were there\, the days were accomplished that she should be de livered. And she brought forth her firstborn son\, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes\, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field\, keeping watch over their flock by night. And\, lo\, the angel of the Lord came upon them\, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them\, Fear not: for\, be hold\, I bring you good tidings of great joy\, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour\, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes\, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God\, and saying\, Glory to God in the highest\, and on earth peace\, good will toward men.

SUMMARY:Advent IV
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nO LORD\, raise up (we pray thee) thy power\, and come among us\, and with great might succour us; that whereas\, through our sins and wickedness\, we are sore let and hindered in running the race that is set before us\, thy bountiful grace and mercy may speedily help and deliver us; through the satisfaction of thy Son our Lord\, to whom\, with thee and the Holy Ghost\, be honour and glory\, world without end.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  Philip. 4. 4 \nREJOICE in the Lord alway; and again I say\, Rejoice.  Let your moderation be known unto all men.  The Lord is at hand.  Be careful for nothing: but in everything\, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving\, let your requests be made known unto God.  And the peace of God\, which passeth all understanding\, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. John 1. 19 \nTHIS is the record of John\, when the Jews sent Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him\, Who art thou?  And he confessed\, and denied not; but confessed\, I am not the Christ.  And they asked him\, What then?  Art thou Elias?  And he saith\, I am not.  Art thou that Prophet?  And he answered\, No.  Then said they unto him\, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us.  What sayest thou of thyself?  He said\, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness\, Make straight the way of the Lord\, as said the prophet Esaias.  And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.  And they asked him\, and said unto him\, Why baptizest thou then\, if thou be not that Christ\, nor Elias\, neither that Prophet?  John answered them\, saying\, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you\, whom ye know not: he it is who coming after me is preferred before me\, whose shoe’s latchet I am not worthy to unloose.  These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan\, where John was baptizing.

SUMMARY:Trinity XV
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nKEEP\, we beseech thee\, O Lord\, thy Church with thy perpetual mercy; and\, because the frailty of man without thee cannot but fall\, keep us ever by thy help from all things hurtful\, and lead us to all things profitable for our salvation; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  Gal. 6. 11\nYE see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.  As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh\, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.  For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the Law; but desire to have you circumcised\, that they may glory in your flesh.  But God forbid that I should glory\, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ\, by whom the world is crucified unto me\, and I unto the world.  For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing\, nor uncircumcision\, but a new creature.  And as many as walk according to this rule\, peace be on them\, and mercy\, and upon the Israel of God.  From henceforth let no man trouble me; for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.  Brethren\, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.  Amen. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. Matth. 6. 24\nNO man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one\, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one\, and despise the other.  Ye cannot serve God and Mammon.  Therefore I say unto you\, Take no thought for your life\, what ye shall eat\, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body\, what ye shall put on.  Is not the life more than meat\, and the body than raiment?  Behold the birds of the heaven\, that they sow not\, neither do they reap\, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them.  Are not ye of much more value than they?  And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life?  And why are ye anxious for raiment?  Consider the lilies of the field\, how they grow; they toil not\, neither do they spin; yet I say unto you\, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.  But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field\, which to-day is\, and to-morrow is cast into the oven\, shall he not much more clothe you\, O ye of little faith?  Be not therefore anxious\, saying\, What shall we eat? or\, What shall we drink? or\, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?  For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.  But seek ye first the kingdom of God\, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.  Be ye not therefore anxious about the morrow; for the morrow shall take care for itself: sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

SUMMARY:Trinity XIV
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nALMIGHTY and everlasting God\, give unto us the increase of faith\, hope\, and charity; and\, that we may obtain that which thou dost promise\, make us to love that which thou dost command; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  \nGal. 5. 16\nI SAY then\, Walk in the Spirit\, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.  For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit\, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other; so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.  But if ye be led of the Spirit\, ye are not under the Law.  Now the works of the flesh are manifest\, which are these: Adultery\, fornication\, uncleanness\, lasciviousness\, idolatry\, witchcraft\, hatred\, variance\, emulations\, wrath\, strife\, seditions\, heresies\, envyings\, murders\, drunkenness\, revellings\, and such like: of the which I tell you before\, as I have also told you in time past\, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.  But the fruit of the Spirit is love\, joy\, peace\, longsuffering\, gentleness\, goodness\, faith\, meekness\, temperance: against such there is no law.  And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. Luke 17. 11\nAND it came to pass\, as Jesus went to Jerusalem\, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.  And as he entered into a certain village\, there met him ten men that were lepers\, which stood afar off.  And they lifted up their voices\, and said\, Jesus\, Master\, have mercy on us.  And when he saw them\, he said unto them\, Go show yourselves unto the priests.  And it came to pass\, that\, as they went\, they were cleansed.  And one of them\, when he saw that he was healed\, turned back\, and with a loud voice glorified God\, and fell down on his face at his feet\, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.  And Jesus answering said\, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?  There are not found that returned to give glory to God\, save this stranger.  And he said unto him\, Arise\, go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole.

SUMMARY:Trinity XIII
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nAlmighty and merciful God\, of whose only gift it cometh that thy faithful people do unto thee true and laudable service: Grant\, we beseech thee\, that we may so faithfully serve thee in this life\, that we fail not finally to attain thy heavenly promises; through the merits of Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE. \nGal. 3. 16\nTO Abraham and his seed were the promises made.  He saith not\, And to seeds\, as of many; but as of one\, And to thy seed\, which is Christ.  And this I say\, That the covenant\, that was confirmed before of God in Christ\, the Law\, which was four hundred and thirty years after\, cannot disannul\, that it should make the promise of none effect.  For if the inheritance be of the Law\, it is no more of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.  Wherefore then serveth the Law?  It was added because of transgressions\, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.  Now a mediator is not a mediator of one\, but God is one.  Is the Law then against the promises of God?  God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life\, verily righteousness should have been by the Law.  But the Scripture hath concluded all under sin\, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. Luke 10. 23\nBlessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see.  For I tell you\, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see\, and have not seen them ; and to hear those things which ye hear\, and have not heard them.  And behold\, a certain lawyer stood up\, and tempted him\, saying\, Master\, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?  He said unto him\, What is written in the Law? how readest thou?  And he answering said\, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart\, and with all thy soul\, and with all thy strength\, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.  And he said unto him\, Thou hast answered right: this do\, and thou shalt live.  But he\, willing to justify himself\, said unto Jesus\, And who is my neighbour?  And Jesus answering said\, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho\, and fell among thieves\, which stripped him of his raiment\, and wounded him\, and departed\, leaving him half dead.  And by chance there came down a certain priest that way; and when he saw him\, he passed by on the other side.  And likewise a Levite\, when he was at the place\, came and looked on him\, and passed by on the other side.  But a certain Samaritan\, as he journeyed\, came where he was; and when he saw him\, he had compassion on him\, and went to him\, and bound up his wounds\, pouring in oil and wine\, and set him on his own beast\, and brought him to an inn\, and took care of him.  And on the morrow when he departed\, he took out two shillings\, and gave them to the host\, and said unto him\, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more\, when I come again\, I will repay thee.  Which now of these three\, thinkest thou\, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?  And he said\, He that showed mercy on him.  Then said Jesus unto him\, Go\, and do thou likewise.

SUMMARY:Trinity VI
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nO GOD\, who hast prepared for them that love thee such good things as pass man’s understanding: Pour into our hearts such love toward thee\, that we\, loving thee above all things\, may obtain thy promises\, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  Rom. 6. 3\nKNOW ye not\, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?  Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father\, even so we also should walk in newness of life.  For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death\, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection; knowing this\, that our old man is crucified with him\, that the body of sin might be destroyed\, that henceforth we should not serve sin.  For he that is dead is freed from sin.  Now if we be dead with Christ\, we believe that we shall also live with him: knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.  For in that he died\, he died unto sin once; but in that he liveth\, he liveth unto God.  Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin\, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. \nTHE GOSPEL. \nS. Matth. 5. 20\nJESUS said unto his disciples\, Except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the Scribes and Pharisees\, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.  Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time\, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgement.  But I say unto you\, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgement: and whosoever shall say to his brother\, Raca\, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say\, Thou fool\, shall be in danger of hell fire.  Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar\, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee\, leave there thy gift before the altar\, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother\, and then come and offer thy gift.  Agree with thine adversary quickly\, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge\, and the judge deliver thee to the officer\, and thou be cast into prison.  Verily I say unto thee\, Thou shalt by no means come out thence\, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

SUMMARY:Lent I
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECTS. \nO LORD\, who for our sake didst fast forty days and forty nights: Give us grace to use such abstinence\, that\, our flesh being subdued to the Spirit\, we may ever obey thy godly motions in righteousness and true holiness\, to thy honour and glory\, who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost\, one God\, world without end.  Amen. \nAlmighty and everlasting God\, who hatest nothing that thou hast made\, and dost forgive the sins of all them that are penitent: Create and make in us new and contrite hearts\, that we\, worthily lamenting our sins\, and acknowledging our wretchedness\, may obtain of thee\, the God of all mercy\, perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.\nThis Collect is to be read every day in Lent after the Collect appointed for the Day.  \nTHE EPISTLE.  2 Cor. 6. 1\nWE then\, as workers together with him\, beseech you also\, that ye receive not the grace of God in vain; (for he saith\, I have heard thee in a time accepted\, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold\, now is the accepted time; behold\, now is the day of salvation;) giving no offence in any thing\, that the ministry be not blamed; but in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God\, in much patience\, in afflictions\, in necessities\, in distresses\, in stripes\, in imprisonments\, in tumults\, in labours\, in watchings\, in fastings; by pureness\, by knowledge\, by long-suffering\, by kindness\, by the Holy Ghost\, by love unfeigned\, by the word of truth\, by the power of God; by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left; by honour and dishonour\, by evil report and good report; as deceivers\, and yet true; as unknown\, and yet well known; as dying\, and behold\, we live; as chastened\, and not killed; as sorrowful\, yet alway rejoicing; as poor\, yet making many rich; as having nothing\, and yet possessing all things.  \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. Matth. 4. 1\nTHEN was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.  And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights\, he was afterward an-hungered.  And when the tempter came to him\, he said\, If thou be the Son of God\, command that these stones be made bread.  But he answered and said\, It is written\, Man shall not live by bread alone\, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.  Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city\, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple\, and saith unto him\, If thou be the Son of God\, cast thyself down; for it is written\, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee\, and in their hands they shall bear thee up\, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.  Jesus said unto him\, It is written again\, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.  Again\, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain\, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world\, and the glory of them; and saith unto him\, All these things will I give thee\, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.  Then saith Jesus unto him\, Get thee hence\, Satan; for it is written\, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God\, and him only shalt thou serve.  Then the devil leaveth him\, and\, behold\, angels came and ministered unto him.
