October 17, 2026 Have a good day! ----- Memorial of Saint Ignatius of Antioch, Bishop and Martyr ----- ☆ Gospel: Luke 12:8-12 Dramatic Reading https://hanamori.info/bible/en/Luke_12_8-12 And I say to you that to everyone who gives witness to me before men, the Son of man will give witness before the angels of God. But if anyone says before men that he has no knowledge of me, I will say that I have no knowledge of him before the angels of God. And if anyone says a word against the Son of man, he will have forgiveness: but for him who says evil words against the Holy Spirit, there will be no forgiveness. And when they take you before the Synagogues and the authorities and the rulers, take no thought about what answers you will give, or what you will say: For the Holy Spirit will make clear to you in that very hour what to say. ----- ☆ Ephesians 1:15-23 Dramatic Reading https://hanamori.info/bible/en/Ephesians_1_15-23 For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints, Give praise without end for you, keeping you in mind in my prayers; That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; And that having the eyes of your heart full of light, you may have knowledge of what is the hope of his purpose, what is the wealth of the glory of his heritage in the saints, And how unlimited is his power to us who have faith, as is seen in the working of the strength of his power, By which he made Christ come back from the dead, and gave him a place at his right hand in heaven, Far over all rule and authority and power and every name which is named, not only in the present order, but in that which is to come: And he has put all things under his feet, and has made him to be head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the full measure of him in whom all things are made complete. ----- ◇ Daily Readings October 17, 2026 https://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/101726.cfm ◇ Abiding Radio Instrumental (BGM) https://www.abidingradio.org/listen/ -----
