[Acts 11:22-24, NLT]
22 When the church at Jerusalem heard what had happened, they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
23 When he arrived and saw this evidence of God's blessing, he was filled with joy, and he encouraged the believers to stay true to the Lord.
24 Barnabas was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and strong in faith. And many people were brought to the Lord.
[행11:22-24]
22 예루살렘 교회가 이 사람들의 소문을 듣고 바나바를 안디옥까지 보내니
23 그가 이르러 하나님의 은혜를 보고 기뻐하여 모든 사람에게 굳건한 마음으로 주와 함께 머물러 있으라 권하니
24 바나바는 착한 사람이요 성령과 믿음이 충만한 사람이라 이에 큰 무리가 주께 더하여지더라
[Acts 9:17-18, NLT]
17 So Ananias went and found Saul. He laid his hands on him and said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road, has sent me so that you might regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit."
18 Instantly something like scales fell from Saul's eyes, and he regained his sight. Then he got up and was baptized.

@davereimer @sinbach that’s a good reason to be a missionary in China. Teach EFL in China via the Pill Bible
Jesus knew he would die on a cross. It was the tree he hung on that made him a curse of sin for us. He became the snake Moses hung on the cross in the wilderness to save God’s rebellious children. He knew he would not be stoned by Jews. Yet he was captured and declared guilty in a false trial against him by the highest ranking Jewish leaders. Jesus would have seen many crosses growing up in Roman occupation. He would have seen Jews dying and hanging on crosses as a boy and a man because all Jews went to temple. He knew he would die on a cross for you and me. That’s amazing to realize because it’s a fact. Jesus Christ is a Jew. His name is salvation and deliverance. He died on a Roman cross.
Now believe that he is risen and be baptized with him in water and Spirit.
[Luke 9:23, NLT] Then he said to the crowd, "If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me.
[눅9:23] 또 무리에게 이르시되 아무든지 나를 따라오려거든 자기를 부인하고 날마다 제 십자가를 지고 나를 따를 것이니라
[Luke 1:31-33, NLT]
31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus.
32 He will be very great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David.
33 And he will reign over Israel forever; his Kingdom will never end!"
[눅1:31-33]
31 보라 네가 잉태하여 아들을 낳으리니 그 이름을 예수라 하라
32 그가 큰 자가 되고 지극히 높으신 이의 아들이라 일컬어질 것이요 주 하나님께서 그 조상 다윗의 왕위를 그에게 주시리니
33 영원히 야곱의 집을 왕으로 다스리실 것이며 그 나라가 무궁하리라
[Mark 14:3, NLT] Meanwhile, Jesus was in Bethany at the home of Simon, a man who had previously had leprosy. While he was eating, a woman came in with a beautiful alabaster jar of expensive perfume made from essence of nard. She broke open the jar and poured the perfume over his head.
[막14:3] 예수께서 베다니 나병환자 시몬의 집에서 식사하실 때에 한 여자가 매우 값진 향유 곧 순전한 나드 한 옥합을 가지고 와서 그 옥합을 깨뜨려 예수의 머리에 부으니
[Matthew 25:21, NLT] "The master was full of praise. 'Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let's celebrate together!'
[마25:21] 그 주인이 이르되 잘하였도다 착하고 충성된 종아 네가 적은 일에 충성하였으매 내가 많은 것을 네게 맡기리니 네 주인의 즐거움에 참여할지어다 하고
[Matthew 22:37-39, NLT]
37 Jesus replied, "'You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.'
38 This is the first and greatest commandment.
39 A second is equally important: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'
[마22:37-39]
37 예수께서 이르시되 네 마음을 다하고 목숨을 다하고 뜻을 다하여 주 너의 하나님을 사랑하라 하셨으니
38 이것이 크고 첫째 되는 계명이요
39 둘째도 그와 같으니 네 이웃을 네 자신 같이 사랑하라 하셨으니
