Text: John 3:16  For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes.

Miriam and Aaron began to talk against Moses because of his Cushite wife, for he had married a Cushite.

Now the people complained about their hardships in the hearing of the Lord, and when he heard them his anger was aroused.
