1 So all of you should think about Jesus. God sent Jesus exactly to us, and he is the high priest of our faith. My holy brothers and sisters, I tell you, God has called you all. Hebrews 3: 1
2 God sent Jesus to us and made him our high priest. And Jesus was just as faithful to God as Moses was. He did everything God wanted him to do in the whole house of God. Hebrews 3: 2
3 When a person builds a house, people respect that person more than the house. It is the same with Jesus. Jesus deserves more respect than Moses. Hebrews 3: 3
4 Every house is built by someone, but God is the one who made everything. Hebrews 3: 4
5 Moses was faithful as a servant in all the house of God. He told the people about the people that God could tell them in the future. Hebrews 3: 5
6 But Jesus is like the Son who faithfully rules over God’s house. We are the house of the faithful God. If we are determined and boast in our hope which is so great, then we are the house of God. Hebrews 3: 6
12 A human body has only one body, but it has many parts. Yes, the same body has many parts, but all these parts make only one body. So is Christ. 1 Corinthians 12:12
13 Some of us are Jews and some are non-Greeks; Some of us are slaves and some are free. But we are baptized through one Spirit, into one body. And this is the Spirit that is given to all of us. 1 Corinthians 12:13
14 And a person has more than one body part. It has many parts. 1 Corinthians 12:14
15 One foot can say, “I am not the hand. So I have nothing to do with my body. ” But just by saying this, the foot does not stop being a part of the body. 1 Corinthians 12:15
16 One ear says, I am not an eye, therefore I am not a part of the body. But just by saying this, the ear does not stop being a part of the body. 1 Corinthians 12:16
17 If the whole body were an eye, the body would not be able to hear. Or if the whole body was an ear, then the body could not smell anything. 1 Corinthians 12:17
18 For if every part of the body were one, there were no bodies. But as God pleased, he put the parts in the body. He has made room for everyone. 1 Corinthians 12:18
19 But if they were all the same, where would the body be? 1 Corinthians 12:19
20 So now, although there are many parts, there is only one body. 1 Corinthians 12:20
21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I do not need you,” and the head cannot say, “I do not need you.” 1 Corinthians 12:21
22 No. The parts of the body that look weak are really needed. 1 Corinthians 12:22
23 And we pay special attention to those parts of the body which we consider less honorable. And the body parts that we don’t like to show, we pay special attention to them. 1 Corinthians 12:23
24 But the parts of our body that are beautiful do not need our special attention. But God put all the parts together to give them the more glory they need. 1 Corinthians 12:24
25 God did this so that our bodies would not be divided. It was God’s intention that all the members take the same care of each other. 1 Corinthians 12:25
26 If one part of the body suffers, all the other members suffer with it. Or if one organ gets honor then other organs also share in that honor. 1 Corinthians 12:26
27 You are the body of Christ all together. Every one of you is a part of this body. 1 Corinthians 12:27
28 And God hath given to each one a place in the church: first, the apostles; second, the prophets, and third, the teachers. Then God gave them a place. Those who perform miracles, those who have the gift of healing, those who are able to lead, and those who can speak in different languages. 1 Corinthians 12:28
29 Not all people are apostles. Not all people are prophets. Not all people are teachers. Not all people can perform miracles. 1 Corinthians 12:29
30 Not all people have the gift of healing. Not all people speak different languages. Not all people can interpret those languages. 1 Corinthians 12:30
31 But truly you should desire great gifts. And now I show you the best way. 1 Corinthians 12:31
12 The next day the people heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. There were many people coming to the Passover. John 12:12
13 They came to meet Jesus with palm branches and shouted, “Praise him! May God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord.” John 12:13
14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it. He completed what was written in the book John 12:14
15 “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion! Behold, your King comes riding on a young donkey. ” Zechariah John 12:15
16 Jesus’ disciples at that time did not understand what he was doing. But when Jesus was glorified, they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things for him. John 12:16
17 When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, a large crowd was with him, and he called out to Lazarus to come out of the tomb. Now those people were telling others about what they had seen and heard. John 12:17
18 Many people came to see Jesus because they had heard about his miracle. John 12:18
19 Then the Pharisees began to say to one another, “Look! Our plan is in vain, because everyone is following it. “ John 12:19
