/The Epistle:A Reading from the Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle, to the Romans:Brethren: Now we know that what things soever the. Law saith, it saith tothem who are under the Law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all theworld may become guilty before God.Therefore by the deeds of the.Law there shall no flesh be justifjed in HisSight; for by the Law is the knowledge of sin.But now the righteousness of God without the Law is manifested, beingwitnessed by the Law and the Prophets;Even the righteousness of God which is by Faith of Jesus Christ unto alland upon all them that believe; for there is no difference;For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;Being justified freely by His grace through the Redemption That is inChrist Jesus; .Whom God hath set forth to be a Propitiation through Faith in His Blood,to declare His.rig~Leousness for the remission of sins that. are past, through theforbearance of God;To declare, I say, at this time His righteousness; that He might be just,and the Justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.(Rom. 3: 19 - 26) I V . Thanks be to God.

Or the following may be used in place of the above:The Epistle (as kept at Hereford): 'A Reading from the First Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle, to Timothy:Dearly beloved: Without controversy great is the Mystery of godliness;God was Manifest in the Flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen of angels, Preachedunto the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up into Glory.Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shalldepart, from the Faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which Godhath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and knowthe Truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it bereceived with thanksgiving;For it is sanctified by the Word of God and prayer.

If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be agood minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of_Faith and of goodDoctrine, whereunto thou hast attained. jBut refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather untogodliness. For bodily exercise prof'iteth little; but godliness is profitable unto allthings, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.(1 Tim. 3: 16 - 4: 8) W .
