To Be Determined

Uncategorized Scripture

:

He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.


:

He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.


:

He spoke to them openly. Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.


:

But he, turning around, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”


:

He called the multitude to himself with his disciples, and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.


:

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.


:

For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?


:

For what will a man give in exchange for his life?


:

For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”


:

He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see the Kingdom of God come with power.”


:

After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and brought them up onto a high mountain privately by themselves, and he was changed into another form in front of them.


:

His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.


:

Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.


:

Peter answered Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let’s make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”


:

For he didn’t know what to say, for they were very afraid.


:

A cloud came, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.”


:

Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them any more, except Jesus only.


:

As they were coming down from the mountain, he commanded them that they should tell no one what things they had seen, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.


:

They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the “rising from the dead” meant.


:

They asked him, saying, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”


:

He said to them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and restores all things. How is it written about the Son of Man, that he should suffer many things and be despised?


:

But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him.”


:

Coming to the disciples, he saw a great multitude around them, and scribes questioning them.


:

Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him greeted him.


:

He asked the scribes, “What are you asking them?”


:

One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;


:

and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and wastes away. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren’t able.”


:

He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”


:

They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.


:

He asked his father, “How long has it been since this has come to him?” He said, “From childhood.


:

Often it has cast him both into the fire and into the water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us, and help us.”


:

Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”


:

Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”


:

When Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again!”


:

Having cried out, and convulsed greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead; so much that most of them said, “He is dead.”


:

But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.


:

When he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?”


:

He said to them, “This kind can come out by nothing, except by prayer and fasting.”


:

They went out from there, and passed through Galilee. He didn’t want anyone to know it.


:

For he was teaching his disciples, and said to them, “The Son of Man is being handed over to the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, on the third day he will rise again.”


:

But they didn’t understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.


:

He came to Capernaum, and when he was in the house he asked them, “What were you arguing among yourselves on the way?”


:

But they were silent, for they had disputed one with another on the way about who was the greatest.


:

He sat down, and called the twelve; and he said to them, “If any man wants to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.”


:

He took a little child, and set him in the midst of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,


:

“Whoever receives one such little child in my name, receives me, and whoever receives me, doesn’t receive me, but him who sent me.”


:

John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone who doesn’t follow us casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow us.”


:

But Jesus said, “Don’t forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.


:

For whoever is not against us is on our side.


:

For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you are Christ’s, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.


:

Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he was thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.


:

If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire,


:

where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’


:

If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that will never be quenched–


:

where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’


:

If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire,


:

where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’


:

For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.


:

Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”


:

He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.


:

Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”


:

He answered, “What did Moses command you?”


:

They said, “Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her.”


:

But Jesus said to them, “For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.


:

But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.


:

For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,


:

and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.


:

What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”


:

In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter.


:

He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery against her.


:

If a woman herself divorces her husband, and marries another, she commits adultery.”


:

They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.


:

But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, “Allow the little children to come to me! Don’t forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.


:

Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”


:

He took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them.


:

As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?”


:

Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one–God.


:

You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’”


:

He said to him, “Teacher, I have observed all these things from my youth.”


:

Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross.”


:

But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.


:

Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!”


:

The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, “Children, how hard is it for those who trust in riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!


:

It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”


:

They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, “Then who can be saved?”


:

Jesus, looking at them, said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God.”


:

Peter began to tell him, “Behold, we have left all, and have followed you.”


:

Jesus said, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,


:

but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time, houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age to come eternal life.


:

But many who are first will be last; and the last first.”


:

They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.


:

“Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles.


:

They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”


:

James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, saying, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask.”


:

He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”


:

They said to him, “Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand, and one at your left hand, in your glory.”


:

But Jesus said to them, “You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”


:

They said to him, “We are able.” Jesus said to them, “You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;


:

but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared.”


:

When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant towards James and John.
