  11. The Old Testament lesson is read Ezekiel 37:1-10 (NIV) 1  The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. 2  He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry.

  12. The Old Testament lesson is read Ezekiel 37:1-10 (NIV) 3  He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" I said, "O Sovereign LORD, you alone know." 4  Then he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD!

  13. The Old Testament lesson is read Ezekiel 37:1-10 (NIV) 5  This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. 6  I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.'"

  14. The Old Testament lesson is read Ezekiel 37:1-10 (NIV) 7  So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8  I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.

  15. The Old Testament lesson is read Ezekiel 37:1-10 (NIV) 9  Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, that they may live.'"

  16. The Old Testament lesson is read Ezekiel 37:1-10 (NIV) 10  So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet--a vast army.

  19. The Epistle is read 1 John 5:4-12 (NIV) 6  This is the one who came by water and blood--Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7  For there are three that testify:

  20. The Epistle is read 1 John 5:4-12 (NIV) 8  the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9  We accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son.

  21. The Epistle is read 1 John 5:4-12 (NIV) 10  Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son.

  22. The Epistle is read 1 John 5:4-12 (NIV) 11  And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12  He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
