ON THE LAMP OF THE BODY
|
Matthew
6
|
M
|
Luke
11
|
| [22]
The eye is the lamp of
the body. So, if your
eye is sound, your whole body
will be full of light; |
|
[34]
Your eye is the lamp
of your body; when your
eye is sound,
your whole body is full
of light; |
| [23]
but if your eye is not
sound, your whole body
will be full
of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the
darkness! |
|
but when it is not sound, your body
is full of darkness.
[35] Therefore be careful
lest the light in you be darkness. |
|
|
[36]
If then your whole body is full of light, having
no part
dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you
light. |

ON SERVING TWO MASTERS
|
Matthew 6
|
M
|
Luke 12
|
| [25] Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious
about your life,
what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what
you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than
clothing? |
|
[22] And he said to
his disciples, Therefore I tell
you, do not
be anxious about your life, what you shall eat, nor about your body,
what you shall put on.
[23] For life is more than
food, and the body more
than clothing.

|
ON NOT FEARING
|
Matthew 10
|
M
|
Luke 12
|
[28] And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the
soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
|
|
[4] I tell you, my friends, do not fear
those who kill the body,
and after that have no more that they can do.
[5] But
I will warn you whom to fear: fear him who, after he has killed, has
power to cast into hell; yes, I tell you, fear him!
|
| [29] Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
And not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's will.
|
|
[6] Are not five sparrows sold for two
pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God. |
| [30] But even the hairs of your head are all
numbered. |
|
[7] Why, even the hairs of your head are
all numbered. |
| [31] Fear not, therefore; you are of more
value than many sparrows. |
|
Fear not; you are of more value than
many sparrows. |
|
ON THE PAROUSIA
|
Matthew 24
|
M
|
Luke 17
|
| [27] For as the lightning comes from the
east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of
man. |
|
|
|
|
[34] I tell you, in that night there will be
two in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.
|
|
|
[35] There will be two women grinding
together; one will be taken and the other left. |
| [28] Wherever the body (ptoma) is, there the eagles
will be gathered together. |
|
[37] And they said
to him, "Where, Lord?" He said to them, Where the body is, there the eagles
will be gathered together. |
|
THE ANOINTING AT BETHANY
|
Matthew 26
|
Mark 14
|
L
|
[6] Now when Jesus
was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,
[7] a woman came up to him with an alabaster flask of very
expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head, as he sat at table.
|
[3] And while he
was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,
as he sat at table, a woman came with an alabaster flask of ointment of
pure nard, very costly, and she broke the flask and poured it over his
head.
|
|
[8] But when the
disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste?
|
[4] But there were
some who said to themselves indignantly, "Why was the ointment thus
wasted?
|
|
| [9] For this
ointment might have been sold for a large sum, and given to the poor." |
[5] For this
ointment might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, and
given to the poor." And they reproached her. |
|
[10] But Jesus,
aware of this, said to them, Why
do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me.
|
[6] But Jesus said,
Let her alone; why do
you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me.
|
|
[11] For you always have the poor with you,
but you will not always have me.
|
[7] For you always have the poor with you,
and whenever you will, you can do good to them; but you will not always
have me.
|
|
[12] In pouring this ointment on my body she has done it to
prepare me for burial.
|
[8] She has done what she could; she has
anointed my body
beforehand for burying.
|
|
| [13] Truly, I say to you, wherever this
gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will be told
in memory of her |
[9] And truly, I say to you, wherever the
gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will be told
in memory of her. |

THE LORDS SUPPER
|
Matthew 26
|
Mark 14
|
Luke 22
|
|
|
[15] And he said to
them, I have earnestly desired to
eat this passover with you before I suffer;
[16] for I tell you I shall
not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
|
|
|
[17] And he took a
cup, and when he had given thanks he said, Take this, and divide it among
yourselves;
[18] for I tell you that
from now on I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine until the
kingdom of God comes.
|
[26] Now as they
were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and
broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
|
[22] And as they
were eating, he took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to
them, and said, Take; this is my body.
|
[19]
And he took bread, and when he had given thanks he broke it and gave it
to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you.
Do this in
remembrance of me.
|
[27] And he took a
cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, Drink of it, all of you;
|
[23] And he took a
cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, and they all
drank of it.
|
[20] And likewise
the cup after supper, saying, |
[28] for this is my blood of the covenant,
which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
|
[24] And he said to
them, This is my blood of the
covenant, which is poured out for many. |
This cup which is poured out for you is
the new covenant in my blood. |
| [29] I tell you I shall not
drink again of this fruit of the vine until that
day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. |
[25] Truly, I say to you, I
shall not drink again of the fruit of the vine
until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God. |
[18] for I tell you that from now on I shall
not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes. |
