Eph 3:5  Which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit:

Eph 3:7  Of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which is given to me according to the operation of his power.
Eph 3:8  To me, the least of all the saints, is given this grace, to preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ:
Eph 3:9  And to enlighten all men, that they may see what is the dispensation of the mystery which hath been hidden from eternity in God who created all things:
Eph 3:10  That the manifold wisdom of God may be made known to the principalities and powers in heavenly places through the church,
Eph 3:11  According to the eternal purpose which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord:
Eph 3:12  In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. "

Isa 12:3  Thou shall draw waters with joy out of the saviour's fountains:
Isa 12:4  And you shall say in that day: Praise ye the Lord, and call upon his name: make his works known among the people: remember that his name is high.
Isa 12:5  Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath done great things: shew this forth in all the earth.
Isa 12:6  Rejoice, and praise, O thou habitation of Sion: for great is he that is in the midst of thee, the Holy One of Israel. "

"Luk 12:39  But this know ye, that if the householder did know at what hour the thief would come, he would surely watch and would not suffer his house to be broken open.
Luk 12:40  Be you then also ready: for at what hour you think not the Son of man will come.
Luk 12:41  And Peter said to him: Lord, dost thou speak this parable to us, or likewise to all?
Luk 12:42  And the Lord said: Who thinkest thou is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord setteth over his family, to give them their measure of wheat in due season?
Luk 12:43  Blessed is that servant whom, when his lord shall come, he shall find so doing.
Luk 12:44  Verily I say to you, he will set him over all that he possesseth.
Luk 12:45  But if that servant shall say in his heart: My Lord is long a coming; and shall begin to strike the men-servants and maid-servants, and to eat and to drink and be drunk:
Luk 12:46  The lord of that servant will come in the day that he hopeth not, and at the hour that he knoweth not: and shall separate him and shall appoint him his portion with unbelievers.
Luk 12:47  And that servant, who knew the will of his lord and prepared not himself and did not according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
Luk 12:48  But he that knew not and did things worthy of stripes shall be beaten with few stripes. And unto whomsoever much is given, of him much shall be required: and to whom they have committed much, of him they will demand the more. "
Luke 12:39-48
