Q&A

Matthew 9

9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a  man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto  him, “Follow me.” And he arose, and followed him.

10 And it came  to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and  sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, “Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?”

12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, “They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.”

13  “But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not  sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to  repentance.”

Luke 9

23 And he said to them all, “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.”

24 “For whoever will save his life shall lose it: but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.”

25 “For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?”

Q&A

Matthew 4

17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, “Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

18  And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon  called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for  they were fishers.

19 And he saith unto them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

23  And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and  preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness  and all manner of disease among the people.

24 And his fame went  throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that  were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were  possessed with devils and those which were lunatic, and those that had  the palsy; and he healed them.

25 And there followed him great  multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from  Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

Q&A

Matthew 3

1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,

2 And saying, “Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

11  “I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh  after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he  shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire.”

13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

14 But John forbade him, saying, ”I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?“

15  And Jesus answering said unto him, “Suffer it to be so now: for thus it  becometh us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he suffered him.

16  And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water:  and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God  descending like a dove, and lighting upon him.

17 And lo, a voice from heaven, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

Q&A

John 1

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

3 All things were made by him and without him was not any thing made that was made.

4 In him was life; and life was the light of men.

5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.

14  And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his  glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace  and truth.

16 And of his fullness have all we received, and grace for grace.

17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
