Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality, from which if you keep yourselves, it will be well with you. Farewell.”

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you, not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.

Beloved, don’t be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you.

There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will serve him.

But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed me fully, him I will bring into the land into which he went. His offspring shall possess it.

“Therefore Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘I said indeed that your house and the house of your father should walk before me forever.’ But now Yahweh says, ‘Far be it from me; for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me will be cursed.

You must strike your master Ahab’s house, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Yahweh, at the hand of Jezebel.

Yahweh will give strength to his people. Yahweh will bless his people with peace.

He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.

For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.

If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

“Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.

Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his lord.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.

For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who doesn’t continue in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.”

He who has pity on the poor lends to Yahweh; he will reward him.

Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t serve both God and Mammon.

Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”

but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”

When Jesus heard these things, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have, and distribute it to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.”
