- If someone says, “I love God,”
but at the same time hates his brother,
he is a liar.
For whoever does not love the brother
whom he has seen
cannot love God whom he has not seen. - Even when you reach old age
I will still be the same.
Even when your hair is gray,
I will still carry you.
I have made you and I will uphold you;
I will carry you and save you. - Live in harmony with one another. Do not consider yourself to be better than others, but associate with the lowly, and never be conceited.
- Likewise, you who are husbands must show consideration for your wives in your life together. Treat your wife with respect, for even though she is the weaker partner, she is also an equal heir of God’s gift of life. Thus, your prayers will not be hindered in any way.
- May the God of perseverance and encouragement grant that you may live in harmony with one another, following in the example of Jesus Christ.
- That is why you also pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, and they devote themselves to this service.
- Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be poured into your lap. The measure that you use for others will be used to measure you.
- No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you will all perish as they did.
- A fool is quick to show his anger,
but a prudent man ignores an insult. - He said to them in reply, “Anyone who has two coats must share with the person who has none, and whoever has food must do likewise.”
- Persevere in prayer, with alert minds and thankful hearts.
- But whoever endures to the end will be saved.
- And now, brethren, farewell. Mend your ways. Encourage one another. Be of one mind and live in peace. Then the God of love and peace will be with you.
- And just as no human being comprehends any person’s innermost being except the person’s own spirit within him, so also no one comprehends what pertains to God except the Spirit of God.
- This is my commandment:
love one another
as I have loved you. - I myself did not know him,
but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me,
‘The one on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest
is the one who is to baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ - But you, O Lord, reign forever;
your throne endures from age to age. - Whoever denies the Son
does not have the Father,
but whoever acknowledges the Son
has the Father also. - If your brother should sin, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. Even if he wrongs you seven times a day, and comes back to you seven times to say, ‘I am sorry,’ you must forgive him.
- I also ask that the women should dress themselves modestly and decently in suitable clothing. They should be adorned not with braided hair or with gold or pearls or expensive clothes, but with good works, as is fitting for women who profess their reverence for God.
- Just as the living Father sent me
and I have life because of the Father,
so whoever feeds upon me will live because of me. - For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
- For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tested in every respect as we are, but without sinning.
- Those who accepted his message were baptized, and on that day about three thousand people were added to their number.
- For all of us fall short in many ways. Anyone who never makes a mistake in speech has reached perfection and is able to control every part of his body.
