The Epistle. Philippians iii. 17.
BRETHREN, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. (For many walk, as I hacve told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) For our citzenship is in heaven;whence also we look fort he Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: who shall change the body of our humiliationthat it may be conformed unto the body of his glory, according to the working whereby he is able even to subject all things unto himself.
The Gospel. St. Matthew xx.ii. 15.
THEN went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him with their talk. And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men. Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites? Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? They say unto him, Caesar’s. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s. When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.
