The Holy Gospel According to John 15: 18-21

15:18	If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before you.
15:19	If you had been of the world, the world would love what is its own. No obstant això, de veritat, you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world; a causa d'això, the world hates you.
15:20	Remember my saying that I told you: The servant is not greater than his Lord. If they have persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they have kept my word, they will keep yours also.
15:21	But all these things they will do to you because of my name, for they do not know him who sent me.

First Corinthians 15: 1- 8

15:1	And so I make known to you, germans, the Gospel that I preached to you, which you also received, and on which you stand.
15:2	By the Gospel, també, you are being saved, if you hold to the understanding that I preached to you, lest you believe in vain.
15:3	For I handed on to you, first of all, what I also received: that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures;
15:4	and that he was buried; and that he rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures;
15:5	and that he was seen by Cephas, and after that by the eleven.
15:6	Next he was seen by more than five hundred brothers at one time, many of whom remain, fins i tot fins a l'actualitat, although some have fallen asleep.
15:7	Pròxim, he was seen by James, then by all the Apostles.
15:8	And last of all, he was seen also by me, as if I were someone born at the wrong time.

14:6	Jesús li va dir: “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
14:7	If you had known me, certainly you would also have known my Father. And from now on, you shall know him, and you have seen him.”
14:8	Philip said to him, “Senyor, reveal the Father to us, and it is enough for us.”
14:9	Jesús li va dir: “Have I been with you for so long, i no m'has conegut? Philip, whoever sees me, also sees the Father. How can you say, ‘Reveal the Father to us?’
14:10	Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I am speaking to you, I do not speak from myself. But the Father abiding in me, he does these works.
14:11	Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?
14:12	Or else, believe because of these same works. Amén, amén, et dic, whoever believes in me shall also do the works that I do. And greater things than these shall he do, for I go to the Father.
14:13	And whatever you shall ask the Father in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14:14	If you shall ask anything of me in my name, that I will do.

Actes 15: 7- 21

15:7	I després d'haver tingut lloc una gran disputa, Pere es va aixecar i els va dir:: “Germans nobles, ho saps, en els últims dies, Déu ha escollit d'entre nosaltres, per la meva boca, Gentils per escoltar la paraula de l'Evangeli i creure.
15:8	I Déu, qui coneix els cors, va oferir testimoni, donant-los l'Esperit Sant, igual que a nosaltres.
15:9	I no va distingir res entre nosaltres i ells, purificant els seus cors per la fe.
15:10	Ara doncs, per què tempteu Déu a imposar un jou al coll dels deixebles?, que ni els nostres pares ni nosaltres hem pogut suportar?
15:11	Però per la gràcia del Senyor Jesucrist, creiem per ser salvats, de la mateixa manera que ells”.
15:12	Llavors tota la multitud va callar. I escoltaven Bernabé i Pau, descrivint quins grans signes i meravelles havia fet Déu entre els gentils mitjançant ells.
15:13	I després d'haver callat, James va respondre dient: “Germans nobles, escolta'm.
15:14	Simó ha explicat de quina manera Déu va visitar per primera vegada, per tal de prendre dels gentils un poble al seu nom.
15:15	I les paraules dels profetes estan d'acord amb això, tal com estava escrit:
15:16	'Després d'aquestes coses, Tornaré, i reconstruiré el tabernacle de David, que ha caigut. I reconstruiré les seves ruïnes, i l'aixecaré,
15:17	perquè la resta dels homes cerquin el Senyor, juntament amb totes les nacions sobre les quals ha estat invocat el meu nom, diu el Senyor, qui fa aquestes coses.’
15:18	Al Senyor, la seva pròpia obra és coneguda des de l'eternitat.
15:19	A causa d'això, Jutjo que els qui es van convertir a Déu d'entre els gentils no s'han de molestar,
15:20	sinó que els escrivim, que s'haguessin de guardar de la contaminació dels ídols, i de la fornicació, i de tot allò que ha estat ofegat, i de sang.
15:21	Per a Moisès, des de l'antiguitat, ha tingut a cada ciutat qui el predica a les sinagogues, on se'l llegeix cada dissabte”.

15:9 Com el Pare m'ha estimat, doncs t'he estimat. Queda en el meu amor.
