John 1: 1 In the beginning was the one who is called
the Word. The Word was with God and was truly God.2From thevery
beginning the Word was with God. 3And with this Word, Godcreated
all things. Nothing was made without the Word. Everything thatwas created
4received
its life from him,....
`14The Word became a human being andlived
here with us. We saw his true glory, the glory of the only Son ofthe Father.
From him all the kindness and all the truth of God have comedown to us.
(CEV)
Luke 2: 5Mary was engaged to Joseph and traveled with
him to Bethlehem. She was soon going to have a baby,6and while
they were there, 7she gave birth to her first-born son. Shedressed
him in baby clothes and laid him on a bed of hay, because therewas no room
for them in the inn....
16They hurried off and found Mary andJoseph,
and they saw the baby lying on a bed of hay.17When theshepherds
saw Jesus, they told his parents what the angel had said abouthim.18
Everyone listened and was surprised.19But Marykept thinking
about all this and wondering what it meant. (CEV)
Isaiah 53: 2Like a young plant or a root that sprouts
in dry ground, the servant grew up obeying the LORD.
He wasn't some handsome king. Nothing about theway
he looked made him attractive to us. 3He was hated and rejected;his
life was filled with sorrow and terrible suffering. No one wanted tolook
at him. We despised him and said, "He is a nobody!"
4He suffered and endured great pain forus,
but we thought his suffering was punishment from God. 5Hewas
wounded and crushed because of our sins; by taking our punishment,he made
us completely well. (CEV)
John 12: 32If I am lifted up above the earth, I will make everyone want to come to me."33Jesus was talking aboutthe way he would be put to death. (CEV)
1 John 4: 19We love because God loved us first. 20Butif we say we love God and don't love each other, we are liars. We cannotsee God. So how can we love God, if we don't love the people we can see?(CEV)
Galatians 2: 20I have died, but Christ lives in me.And I now live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his lifefor me. 21I don't turn my back on God's undeserved kindness.If we can be acceptable to God by obeying the Law, it was useless for Christto die. (CEV)
