Isn&#8217;t this the carpenter, the son<n id="1" /> of Mary<n id="2" /> and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And aren&#8217;t his sisters here with us?&#8221; And so they took offense at him.

And he said to them, &#8220;I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> there are some standing here who will not<n id="2" /> experience<n id="3" /> death before they see the kingdom of God come with power.&#8221;<n id="4" />p>

So<n id="1" /> Peter said to Jesus,<n id="2" /> &#8220;Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters<n id="3" /> &#8211; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.&#8221;

But he said to them, &#8220;Do not be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified.<n id="1" /> He has been raised!<n id="2" /> He is not here. Look, there is the place where they laid him.

Jesus<n id="1" /> said to them, &#8220;No doubt you will quote to me the proverb, &#8216;Physician, heal yourself!&#8217;<n id="2" /> and say, &#8216;What we have heard that you did in Capernaum,<n id="3" /> do here in your hometown too.&#8217;&#8221;

Jesus answered,<n id="1" /> &#8220;You<n id="2" /> unbelieving<n id="3" /> and perverse generation! How much longer<n id="4" /> must I be with you and endure<n id="5" /> you?<n id="6" /> Bring your son here.&#8221;

The people<n id="1" /> of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented when Jonah preached to them<n id="2" /> &#8211; and now,<n id="3" /> something greater than Jonah is here!p>

But Abraham said, &#8216;Child,<n id="1" /> remember that in your lifetime you received your good things and Lazarus likewise bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in anguish.<n id="2" />

<p class="bodytext">Now when Mary came to the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said to him, &#8220;Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.&#8221;

Then he said to Thomas, &#8220;Put<n id="1" /> your finger here, and examine<n id="2" /> my hands. Extend<n id="3" /> your hand and put it<n id="4" /> into my side. Do not continue in your unbelief, but believe.&#8221;<n id="5" />

All<n id="1" /> who heard him were amazed and were saying, &#8220;Is this not<n id="2" /> the man who in Jerusalem was ravaging<n id="3" /> those who call on this name, and who had come here to bring them as prisoners<n id="4" /> to the chief priests?&#8221;

do you pay attention to the one who is finely dressed and say,<n id="1" /> &#8220;You sit here in a good place,&#8221;<n id="2" /> and to the poor person, &#8220;You stand over there,&#8221; or &#8220;Sit on the floor&#8221;?<n id="3" />

Then<n id="1" /> they<n id="2" /> heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them: &#8220;Come up here!&#8221; So the two prophets<n id="3" /> went up to heaven in a cloud while<n id="4" /> their enemies stared at them.

<p class="poetry">If anyone is meant for captivity,p> <p class="poetry">into captivity he will go.p> <p class="poetry">If anyone is to be killed by the sword,<n id="1" />p> <p class="poetry">then by the sword he must be killed.p> <p class="bodytext">This<n id="2" /> requires steadfast endurance<n id="3" /> and faith from the saints.p>

This calls for wisdom:<n id="1" /> Let the one who has insight calculate the beast&#8217;s number, for it is man&#8217;s number,<n id="2" /> and his number is 666.<n id="3" />p>

Now the day began to draw to a close,<n id="1" /> so<n id="2" /> the twelve came and said to Jesus,<n id="3" /> &#8220;Send the crowd away, so they can go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging<n id="4" /> and food, because we are in an isolated place.&#8221;<n id="5" />

Then<n id="1" /> as the men<n id="2" /> were starting to leave,<n id="3" /> Peter said to Jesus, &#8220;Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters,<n id="4" /> one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah&#8221; &#8211; not knowing what he was saying.

So<n id="1" /> the slave came back and reported this to his master. Then the master of the household was furious<n id="2" /> and said to his slave, &#8216;Go out quickly<n id="3" /> to the streets and alleys of the city,<n id="4" /> and bring in the poor,<n id="5" /> the crippled,<n id="6" /> the blind, and the lame.&#8217;

<t /><p class="bodytext">After these things I looked, and there was<n id="1" /> a door standing open in heaven!<n id="2" /> And the first voice I had heard speaking to me<n id="3" /> like a trumpet<n id="4" /> said: &#8220;Come up here so that<n id="5" /> I can show you what must happen after these things.&#8221;
