- Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
- Arise, shine, for your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. - Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”
- Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
- Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’
- Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.
- This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit.
- And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
- Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things;
let this be known to all the world. - Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom.
- As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us. - The tongue has the power of life and death,
and those who love it will eat its fruit. - You may say to yourselves, “How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?” If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously, so do not be alarmed.
- Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name;
make known among the nations what he has done. - From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”
- If a man has recently married, he must not be sent to war or have any other duty laid on him. For one year he is to be free to stay at home and bring happiness to the wife he has married.
- Whoever is patient has great understanding,
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly. - God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
- Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.
- The father of a righteous child has great joy;
a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him. - And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.
- A thousand years in your sight
are like a day that has just gone by,
or like a watch in the night. - The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to set the oppressed free. - We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.
- We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true by being in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
