Keep thinking about things above, not things on the earth,

But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.

Jesus told the servants, “Fill the water jars with water.” So they filled them up to the very top.

And I will perform wonders in the sky above and miraculous signs on the earth below, blood and fire and clouds of smoke.

with this goal in mind, I strive toward the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

So they took away the stone. Jesus looked upward and said, “Father, I thank you that you have listened to me.

Therefore, if you have been raised with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

Jesus replied, “You people are from below; I am from above. You people are from this world; I am not from this world.

See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God, that no one be like a bitter root springing up and causing trouble, and through him many become defiled.
