Reading I
2 Thess 2:1-3a, 14-17
And we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and of our gathering together unto him:
That you be not easily moved from your sense nor be terrified, neither by spirit nor by word nor by epistle. as sent from us, as if the day of the Lord were at hand.
Let no man deceive you by any means: for unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition
Therefore, brethren, stand fast: and hold the traditions, which you have learned, whether by word or by our epistle.
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God and our Father, who hath loved us and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope in grace,
Exhort your hearts and confirm you in every good work and word.
