The Jewish Leaders Ask Jesus a Question

20 1One day Jesus was in the temple* area. He was teaching the people. Jesus told
the people the Good News [about the kingdom of God]. The leading priests, teachers
of the law, and older Jewish leaders came to talk to Jesus. 2They said, "Tell us!
What authority do you have to do these things? Who gave you this authority?" 3Jesus
answered, "I will ask you a question too. Tell me: 4When John* baptized* people,
did that come from God or from man?" 5The priests, the teachers of the law, and
the Jewish leaders all talked about this. They said to each other, "If we answer,
'John's baptism was from God,' then he will say, 'Then why did you not believe John?'
6But if we say, 'John's baptism was from man,' then all the people will kill us
with rocks. They will kill us because they believe that John was a prophet.* " 7So
they answered, "We don't know the answer." 8So Jesus said to them, "Then I will
not tell you what authority I use to do these things!"

God Sends His Son

9Then Jesus told the people this story: "A man planted a field with grapes. The
man leased the land to some farmers. Then he went away for a long time. 10Later,
it was time for the grapes to be picked. So the man sent a servant to those farmers
so that they would give him his share of the grapes. But the farmers beat the servant
and sent him away with nothing. 11So the man sent another servant. The farmers beat
this servant too. They showed no respect for him. The farmers sent the servant away
with nothing. 12So the man sent a third servant to the farmers. The farmers hurt
this servant badly and threw him out. 13The owner of the field said, 'What will
I do now? I will send my son. I love my son very much. Maybe the farmers will respect
my son!' 14When the farmers saw the son, they said to each other, 'This is the owner's
son. This field will be his. If we kill him, then his field will be ours!' 15So
the farmers threw the son out of the field and killed him. "What will the owner
of this field do? 16He will come and kill those farmers! Then he will give the field
to some other farmers." The people heard this story. They said, "No! This should
never happen!" 17But Jesus looked into their eyes and said, "Then what does this
verse mean: 'The stone that the builders did not want became the cornerstone* '?

(Psalm 118:22)

18Every person that falls on that stone will be broken. If that stone falls on you,
it will crush you!" 19The Jewish leaders heard this story that Jesus told. They
knew this story was about them. So they wanted to arrest Jesus at that time. But
they were afraid of what the people would do.

The Jewish Leaders Try to Trick Jesus

20So the teachers of the law and the priests waited for the right time to get Jesus.
They sent some men to Jesus. They told these men to act like they were good men.
They wanted to find something wrong with the things Jesus said. (If they found
something wrong, then they could give Jesus to the governor, who had power and authority
[over him].) 21So the men asked Jesus, "Teacher, we know that what you say and teach
is true. It doesn't matter who is listening--you teach the same to all people. You
always teach the truth about God's way. 22Tell us, is it right that we should pay
taxes to Caesar* ? Yes or No?" 23But Jesus knew that these men were trying to trick
him. Jesus said to them, 24"Show me a coin. Whose name is on the coin? And whose
picture is on it?" They said, "Caesar's." 25Jesus said to them, "Then give to Caesar*
the things that are Caesar's. And give to God the things that are God's." 26The
men were amazed at his wise answer. They could say nothing. The men were not able
to trick Jesus before the people. Jesus said nothing they could use against him.

"Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour
of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth."
Revelation 3:10 (NKJ)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 25:1-13

"Then the kingdom of heaven will be comparable to ten virgins, who took their lamps,
and went out to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were foolish, and five were
prudent. For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, but
the prudent took oil in flasks along with their lamps.


"Now while the bridegroom was delaying, they all got drowsy and began to sleep.
But at midnight there was a shout, 'Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.'
Then all those virgins rose, and trimmed their lamps.


"And the foolish said to the prudent, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are
going out.' But the prudent answered, saying, 'No, there will not be enough for
us and you too; go instead to the dealers and buy some for yourselves.' "
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Psalm 135:5-7
For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.


Whatever the LORD pleases, He does, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all
deeps.


He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; who makes lightnings
for the rain; who brings forth the wind from His treasuries. Psalm 135:5-7 (NAS)

Daily Bread for April 30

An evil person can hurt other people by the things he says. But good people are
protected by their wisdom. When good people are successful, all the city is happy.
When evil people are destroyed, people shout with joy. A city becomes great when
the honest people living there give it their blessing. But the things an evil person
says can destroy a city. Proverbs 11:9-11 (ERV)

Jesus Enters Jerusalem

28After Jesus said these things, he continued traveling toward Jerusalem. 29Jesus
came near Bethphage and Bethany, towns near the hill called the Mount of Olives.*
Jesus sent out two of his followers. 30He said, "Go into the town you can see there.
When you enter the town, you will find a young donkey tied there. No person has
ever ridden this donkey. Untie the donkey, and bring it here to me. 31If any person
asks you why you are taking the donkey, you should say, 'The Master needs this donkey.'"
32The two followers went into town. They found the donkey exactly like Jesus told
them. 33The followers untied the donkey. But the owners of the donkey came out.
They said to the followers, "Why are you untying our donkey?" 34The followers answered,
"The Master needs it." 35So the followers brought the donkey to Jesus. The followers
put their coats on the donkey's back. Then they put Jesus on the donkey. 36Jesus
rode along the road toward Jerusalem. The followers spread their coats on the road
before Jesus. 37Jesus was coming close to Jerusalem. He was already near the bottom
of the Mount of Olives.* The whole group of followers were happy. They were very
excited and praised God. They thanked God for all the powerful things they had
seen. 38They said, "'Welcome! God bless the king that comes in the name of the Lord.'
(Psalm 118:26)

Peace in heaven and glory to God!" 39Some of the Pharisees* said to Jesus, "Teacher,
tell your followers not to say these things!" 40But Jesus answered, "I tell you,
these things must be said. If my followers don't say these things, then these rocks
will say them."

Jesus Cries for Jerusalem

41Jesus came near Jerusalem. He saw the city and began to cry for it. 42Jesus spoke
to Jerusalem. He said, "I wish you knew today what would bring you peace! But you
can't know it, because it is hidden from you. 43A time is coming when your enemies
will build a wall around you. Your enemies will hold you on all sides. 44They will
destroy you and all your people. Not one stone of your buildings will stay on top
of another. All this will happen because you did not know the time when God came
to save you."

Jesus Goes to the Temple

45Jesus went into the temple* area. He began to throw out the people that were selling
things there. 46Jesus said, "It is written [in the Scriptures* ], 'My house will
be a house of prayer.'* But you have changed it into a 'hiding place for thieves'*
" 47Jesus taught the people in the temple* area every day. The leading priests,
the teachers of the law, and some of the leaders of the people wanted to kill Jesus.
48But all the people were listening closely to Jesus. They were very interested
in the things Jesus said. So the leading priests, the teachers of the law, and the
leaders did not know how they could kill Jesus.

Quick Thought:

Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I am weak; O LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
Psalm 6:2 (NKJ)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 24:43-51
"But be sure of this, that if the head of the house had known at what time of the
night the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert and would not have allowed
his house to be broken into.


"For this reason you be ready too; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when
you do not think He will.

"Who then is the faithful and sensible slave whom his master put in charge of his
household to give them their food at the proper time? Blessed is that slave whom
his master finds so doing when he comes. Truly I say to you, that he will put him
in charge of all his possessions.


"But if that evil slave says in his heart, 'My master is not coming for a long time,'
and shall begin to beat his fellow slaves and eat and drink with drunkards; the
master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour
which he does not know, and shall cut him in pieces and assign him a place with
the hypocrites; weeping shall be there and the gnashing of teeth." Matthew 24:43-51
(Jesus answering the disciples question about His second coming -- NAS)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Acts 17:29-31
Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is
like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and thought of man.

Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men
that all everywhere should repent,because He has fixed a day in which He will judge
the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having furnished
proof to all men by raising Him from the dead. Acts 17:29-31 (NAS)

Zacchaeus

19 1Jesus was going through the city of Jericho. 2In Jericho there was a man named
Zacchaeus. He was a wealthy, very important tax collector.* 3He wanted to see who
Jesus was. There were many other people that wanted to see Jesus too. Zacchaeus
was too short to see above the people. 4So he ran to a place where he knew Jesus
would come. Then Zacchaeus climbed a sycamore tree so he could see Jesus. 5When
Jesus came to that place, Jesus looked up and saw Zacchaeus in the tree. Jesus
said to him, "Zacchaeus, hurry! Come down! I must stay at your house today." 6Then
Zacchaeus came down quickly. He was happy to have Jesus in his house. 7All the people
saw this. They began to complain, "Look at the kind of man Jesus stays with. Zacchaeus
is a sinner!" 8Zacchaeus said to the Lord (Jesus), "I want to do good. I will give
half of my money to the poor. If I have cheated any person, I will pay that person
back four times more!" 9Jesus said, "Today is the day for this family to be saved
[from sin]. Yes, even this [tax collector] is one of God's chosen people* ! 10The
Son of Man* came to find lost people and save them."

Use the Things God Gives You

11Jesus traveled closer to Jerusalem. Some of the people thought that God's kingdom
would come soon. 12Jesus knew the people thought this, so he told them this story:
"A very important man was preparing to go to a country far away to be made a king.
Then the man planned to return home and rule his people. 13So he called ten of his
servants together. He gave a bag of money* to each servant. The man said, 'Do business
with this money until I come back.' 14But the people in the kingdom hated the man.
So the people sent a group to follow the man to the other country. In the other
country, this group said, 'We don't want that man to be our king!' 15"But the man
became king. When he came home, he said, 'Call those servants that have my money.
I want to know how much more money they earned with it.' 16The first servant came
and said, 'Sir, I earned ten bags of money* with the one bag you gave me!' 17The
king said to the servant, 'Fine! You are a good servant. I see that I can trust
you with small things. So now I will let you rule over ten of my cities!' 18The
second servant said, 'Sir, with your one bag of money I earned five bags!' 19The
king said to this servant, 'You can rule over five cities!' 20Then another servant
came in. The servant said to the king, 'Sir, here is your bag of money. I wrapped
it in a piece of cloth and hid it. 21I was afraid of you because you are a hard
man. You even take money that you didn't earn and gather food that you didn't grow!'
22Then the king said to the servant, 'You bad servant! I will use your own words
to condemn you. You said that I am a hard man. You said that I even take money
that I didn't earn and gather food that I didn't grow. 23If that is true, you should
have put my money in the bank. Then, when I came back, my money would have earned
some interest.' 24Then the king said to the men that were watching, 'Take the bag
of money away from this servant and give it to the servant that earned ten bags
of money.' 25The men said to the king, 'But sir, that servant already has ten bags
of money!' 26The king said, 'The person that uses what he has will get more. But
the person that does not use what he has will have everything taken away from him.
27Now where are my enemies? Where are the people that did not want me to be king?
Bring my enemies here and kill them. I will watch them die!'"

Quick Thought:

"He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his
name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before
His angels." Revelation 3:5 (NKJ)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 24:32-42
"Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender,
and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near; even so you too, when you
see all these things, recognize that He is near, right at the door.


"Truly I (Jesus) say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these
things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass
away.

"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son,
but the Father alone. For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days
of Noah. For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking,
they were marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so shall
the coming of the Son of Man be.


"Then there shall be two men in the field; one will be taken, and one will be left.
Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken, and one will be left.
Therefore be on the alert, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming."
Matthew 24:32-42 (Jesus answering the disciples question about the destruction of
the temple and the second coming -- NAS)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 John 1:5-10
And this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is
light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.


If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie
and do not practice the truth; but if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the
light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses
us from all sin.


If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not
in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.


If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
1 John 1:5-10 - (John speaking to Christians -- NAS)

A Rich Man Asks Jesus a Question

18A [Jewish] leader asked Jesus, "Good teacher, what must I do to get the life that
continues forever?" 19Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? Only God is good.
20[But I will answer your question]. You know [God's] commands: 'You must not do
the sin of adultery,* you must not murder anyone, you must not steal anything,
you must not tell lies about other people, you must honor (respect) your father
and mother....'* " 21But the leader said, "I have obeyed all these commands since
I was a boy!" 22When Jesus heard this, he said to the leader, "But there is still
one more thing you need to do. Sell everything you have and give the money to the
poor people. You will have a reward in heaven. Then come and follow me!" 23But when
the man heard this, he was very sad. The man was very rich [and wanted to keep his
money.] 24When Jesus saw that the man was sad, he said, "It will be very hard for
rich people to enter the kingdom of God! 25It would be easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God!"

Who Can Be Saved?

26When the people heard this, they said, "Then who can be saved?" 27Jesus answered,
"God can do things that are not possible for people to do!" 28Peter said, "Look,
we left everything we had and followed you!" 29Jesus said, "I tell you the truth.
Every person that has left his home, wife, brothers, parents, or children for God's
kingdom 30will get much more than he left. That person will get many times more
in this life. And after that person dies, he will live with God forever."

Jesus Will Rise from Death

31Then Jesus talked to the twelve apostles* alone. Jesus said to them, "Listen!
We are going to Jerusalem. Everything that God told the prophets* to write about
the Son of Man* will happen! 32His people will turn against him and give him to
the non-Jewish people.* They will laugh at him and spit on him. He will be insulted
and embarrassed. 33They will beat him with whips and then kill him! But on the third
day after his death, he will rise to life again." 34The apostles tried to understand
this, but they could not; the meaning was hidden from them.

Jesus Heals a Blind Man

35Jesus came near the city of Jericho. There was a blind man sitting beside the
road. The blind man was begging people for money. 36When this man heard the people
coming down the road, he asked, "What is happening?" 37The people told him, "Jesus,
the one from Nazareth, is coming here." 38The blind man was excited and said, "Jesus,
Son of David* ! Please help me!" 39The people that were in front, leading the group,
criticized the blind man. They told him not to speak. But the blind man shouted
more and more, "Son of David, please help me!" 40Jesus stopped there and said, "Bring
that blind man to me!" When the blind man came near, Jesus asked him, 41"What do
you want me to do for you?" The blind man said, "Lord, I want to see again." 42Jesus
said to him, "You can see now! You are healed because you believed." 43Then the
man was able to see. The man followed Jesus, thanking God. All the people that saw
this praised God for what happened.

Quick Thought:

For You, O LORD, will bless the righteous; with favor You will surround him as with
a shield. Psalm 5:12 (NKJ)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 24:23-31
"Then if anyone says to you, 'Behold, here is the Christ,' or 'There He is,' do
not believe him. For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great
signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.
"Behold, I have told you in advance. If therefore they say to you, 'Behold, He is
in the wilderness,' do not go forth, or, 'Behold, He is in the inner rooms,' do
not believe them.


"For just as the lightning comes from the east, and flashes even to the west, so
shall the coming of the Son of Man be. Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures
will gather.


"But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and
the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the
powers of the heavens will be shaken, and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear
in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the
Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. And He will
send forth His angels with a great trumpet and they will gather together His elect
from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other." Matthew 24:23-31 (Jesus
answering the disciples' question about the destruction of the temple and His second
coming. -- NAS)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ephesians 2:4-7
But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ
(by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him
in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, in order that in the ages to come He might
show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. Ephesians
2:4-7 (NAS)

God Will Answer His People

18 1Then Jesus taught the followers that they should always pray and never lose
hope. Jesus used this story to teach them: 2"Once there was a judge in a town.
He did not care about God. The judge also did not care what people thought about
him. 3In that same town there was a woman. Her husband was dead. The woman came
many times to this judge and said, 'There is a man that is doing bad things to
me. Give me my rights!' 4But the judge did not want to help the woman. After a long
time, the judge thought to himself, 'I don't care about God. And I don't care about
what people think. 5But this woman is bothering me. If I give her what she wants,
then she will leave me alone. But if I don't give her what she wants, she will bother
me until I am sick!'" 6The Lord (Jesus) said, "Listen! [There is meaning] in what
the bad judge said. 7God's people shout to him night and day. God will always give
his people what is right. God will not be slow to answer his people. 8I tell you,
God will help his people quickly! But when the Son of Man* comes again, will he
find people on earth who believe in him?"

Being Right with God

9There were some people that thought that they were very good. These people acted
like they were better than other people. Jesus used this story to teach them: 10"One
time there was a Pharisee* and a tax collector.* One day they both went to the temple*
to pray. 11The Pharisee stood alone, away from the tax collector. When the Pharisee
prayed, he said, 'O God, I thank you that I am not as bad as other people. I am
not like men that steal, cheat, or do the sin of adultery.* I thank you that I am
better than this tax collector. 12[I am good]; I fast* twice a week, and I give
one-tenth of everything I earn!' 13"The tax collector* stood alone too. But when
he prayed, he would not even look up to heaven. The tax collector felt very humble
before God. He said, 'O God, have mercy on me. I am a sinner!' 14I tell you, when
this man finished his prayer and went home, he was right with God. But the Pharisee,*
who felt that he was better than other people, was not right with God. Every person
that makes himself important will be made humble. But the person that makes himself
humble will be made important."

Who Will Enter God's Kingdom?

15Some people brought their small children to Jesus so that Jesus could touch them.
But when the followers saw this, they told the people not to do this. 16But Jesus
called the little children to him and said to his followers, "Let the little children
come to me. Don't stop them, because the kingdom of God belongs to people that are
like these little children. 17I tell you the truth. You must accept God's kingdom
like a little child accepts things, or you will never enter it!"

Footnotes: Son of Man A name Jesus used for himself. In Dan. 7:13-14, this is the

Quick Thought:

"You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all
things, and by Your will they exist and were created." Revelation 4:11 (NKJ)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 24:15-22
"Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation which was spoken of through
Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then
let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains...


"...let him who is on the housetop not go down to get the things out that are in
his house; and let him who is in the field not turn back to get his cloak.


"But woe to those who are with child and to those who nurse babes in those days!
But pray that your flight may not be in the winter, or on a Sabbath; for then there
will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the
world until now, nor ever shall.


"And unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for
the sake of the elect those days shall be cut short." Matthew 24:15-22 (Jesus answering
the disciples question about the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem -- NAS)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

John 6:32-35
Jesus therefore said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not Moses who has
given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread
out of heaven.


"For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to
the world."


They said therefore to Him, "Lord, evermore give us this bread."


Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me shall not hunger,
and he who believes in Me shall never thirst." John 6:32-35 (NAS)

New Testament in a Year - April 26

Don't Cause Sin and Be Ready to Forgive

17Jesus said, "Ten men were healed; where are the other nine? 18This man is not
even a Jew! Is he the only one that came back to give praise to God?" 19Then Jesus
said to the man, "Stand up! You can go. You were healed because you believed."

God's Kingdom Is Inside You

20Some of the Pharisees* asked Jesus, "When will the kingdom of God come?" Jesus
answered, "God's kingdom is coming, but not in a way that you will be able to see
with your eyes. 21People will not say, 'Look, God's kingdom is here!' Or, 'There
it is!' No, God's kingdom is inside you." 22Then Jesus said to his followers, "The
time will come when you will want very much to see one of the days of the Son of
Man,* but you will not be able. 23People will say to you, 'Look, there it is!'
or, 'Look, here it is!' Stay where you are; don't go away and search.

When Jesus Comes Again

24"[You will know it] when the Son of Man* comes again. On the day when he comes
he will shine like lightning flashes across the sky. 25But first, the Son of Man
must suffer many things and be killed by the people of this time. 26It will be the
same when the Son of Man comes again as it was when Noah lived. 27In the time of
Noah, people were eating, drinking, and getting married even on the day when Noah
entered the boat. Then the flood came and killed all the people. 28It will be the
same as during the time of Lot when God destroyed Sodom.* Those people were eating,
drinking, buying, selling, planting, and building houses for themselves. 29The people
were doing these things even on the day when Lot left town. Then fire rained down
from the sky and killed them all. 30This is exactly how it will be when the Son
of Man comes again. 31"On that day, if a man is on his roof, he will not have time
to go inside and get his things. If a man is in the field, he cannot go back home.
32Remember what happened to Lot's wife* ? 33The person that tries to save his life
will lose it. But the person that gives his life away will save it. 34At the time
when I come again, there may be two people sleeping in one room. One person will
be taken and the other person will be left. 35There may be two women working together.
One woman will be taken and the other woman will be left." 36* 37The followers asked
Jesus, "Where will this be, Lord?" Jesus answered, "People can always find a dead
body by looking for the vultures.* "

Footnotes: Pharisees The Pharisees were a Jewish religious group that claimed to
follow carefully all Jewish laws and customs. Son of Man A name Jesus used for
himself. In Dan. 7:13-14, this is the name for the Messiah, the one God chose to
save his people. Sodom A town where very bad people lived. God punished them by
destroying their city. Lot's wife The story about what happened to Lot's wife is
found in Gen. 19:15-17, 26. Verse 36 A few Greek copies of Luke add verse 36: "Two
men will be in the same field. One man will be taken, but the other man will be
left behind." vultures Or, "eagles"--birds that eat dead animals.

Quick Thought:

Let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; let them ever shout for joy, because
You defend them; let those also who love Your name be joyful in You. Psalm 5:11
(NKJ)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 24:1-14
And Jesus came out from the temple and was going away when His disciples came up
to point out the temple buildings to Him. And He answered and said to them, "Do
you not see all these things? Truly I say to you, not one stone here shall be left
upon another, which will not be torn down."


And as He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately,
saying, "Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of Your coming,
and of the end of the age?" And Jesus answered and said to them, "See to it that
no one misleads you. For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ,'
and will mislead many. And you will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars; see that
you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the
end. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various
places there will be famines and earthquakes. But all these things are merely the
beginning of birth pangs.


"Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated
by all nations on account of My name. And at that time many will fall away and will
deliver up one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise,
and will mislead many. And because lawlessness is increased, most people's love
will grow cold.


"But the one who endures to the end, he shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom
shall be preached in the whole world for a witness to all the nations, and then
the end shall come." Matthew 24:1-14 (NAS)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

John 5:22-24
"For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son,
in order that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who does
not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.


"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me,
has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death
into life." John 5:22-24 (NAS)

4th Sunday in April
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Luke 12:22-31
And He said to His disciples, "For this reason I say to you, do not be anxious for
your life, as to what you shall eat; nor for your body, as to what you shall put
on. For life is more than food, and the body than clothing. Consider the ravens,
for they neither sow nor reap; and they have no storeroom nor barn; and yet God
feeds them; how much more valuable you are than the birds!
"And which of you by being anxious can add a single cubit to his life's span? If
then you cannot do even a very little thing, why are you anxious about other matters?
"Consider the lilies, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you,
even Solomon in all his glory did not clothe himself like one of these. But if
God so arrays the grass in the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown
into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you, O men of little faith!
"And do not seek what you shall eat, and what you shall drink, and do not keep worrying.
For all these things the nations of the world eagerly seek; but your Father knows
that you need these things. But seek for His kingdom, and these things shall be
added to you." Luke 12:22-31 (NAS)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Questions:


Why doesn't Jesus want us to be worrying or anxious about food or clothing? Instead,
if we seek His _________, these things shall be added or given to us.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Suggested Bible Reading for Month:

April 1-7:New Testament -- Luke 5:17 through Luke 8:39. Old Testament -- Deuteronomy
chapter 32 through Joshua chapter 14.

April 8-14: New Testament -- Luke 8:40 through Luke 11:28. Old Testament -- Joshua
chapter 15 through Judges chapter 4.
April 15-21: New Testament -- Luke 11:29 through Luke 14:14. Old Testament -- Judges
chapter 5 through Judges chapter 21.
April 22-30: New Testament -- Luke 14:15 through Luke 19:48. Old Testament -- Ruth
chapter 1 through 1 Samuel chapter 17.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Easy-to-Read Version:

Jesus said to his followers, "So I tell you, don't worry about the food you need
to live. Don't worry about the clothes you need for your body. Life is more important
than food. And the body is more important than clothes. Look at the birds. They
don't plant or harvest. Birds don't save food in houses or barns. But God takes
care of them. And you are worth much more than birds.

"None of you can add any time to your life by worrying about it. If you cannot do
the little things, then why worry about the big things?

"Look at the wild flowers. See how they grow. They don't work or make clothes for
themselves. But I tell you that even Solomon, the great and rich king, was not dressed
as beautifully as one of these flowers. God clothes the grass in the field like
that. That grass is living today, but tomorrow it will be thrown into the fire to
be burned. So you know that God will clothe you much more. Don't have so little
faith!

"So don't always think about what you will eat or what you will drink. Don't worry
about it. All the people in the world try to get those things. Your Father (God)
knows that you need those things. The thing you should want is God's kingdom. Then
all these other things you need will be given to you." Luke 12:22-31 (ERV)
