- Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
- But those who want to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.
- And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation.”
- But speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.
- While he was going and they were gazing up toward heaven, suddenly two men in white robes stood by them. They said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up toward heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”
- He said to them, “Then do you also fail to understand? Do you not see that whatever goes into a person from outside cannot defile,
since it enters, not the heart but the stomach, and goes out into the sewer?” (Thus he declared all foods clean.) - Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.
- All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being.
- So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.
- God is faithful; by him you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
- Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” Having said this, he breathed his last.
- Stay awake and pray that you may not come into the time of trial; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
- God's love was revealed among us in this way: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through him.
- May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ.
- He will again have compassion upon us;
he will tread our iniquities under foot.
You will cast all our sins
into the depths of the sea. - The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels;
they go down into the inner parts of the body. - I came from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and am going to the Father.
- For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.
- And do not bring us to the time of trial,
but rescue us from the evil one. - For we brought nothing into the world, so that we can take nothing out of it; but if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.
- Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; for many false prophets have gone out into the world.
- For in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith. As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
- But those who look into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and persevere, being not hearers who forget but doers who act—they will be blessed in their doing.
- A fool's lips bring strife,
and a fool's mouth invites a flogging. - If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away; it is better for you to lose one of your members than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for see—I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people.”
