使徒行傳 10: 25- 26, 34- 35, 44- 48

10:25	事情發生了, when Peter had entered, Cornelius went to meet him. And falling before his feet, he reverenced.
10:26	然而真的, Peter, lifting him up, 說: “Rise up, for I also am only a man.”

10:34	然後, Peter, opening his mouth, 說: “I have concluded in truth that God is not a respecter of persons.
10:35	But within every nation, whoever fears him and works justice is acceptable to him.

10:44	While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell over all of those who were listening to the Word.
10:45	And the faithful of the circumcision, who had arrived with Peter, were astonished that the grace of the Holy Spirit was also poured out upon the Gentiles.
10:46	For they heard them speaking in tongues and magnifying God.
10:47	Then Peter responded, “How could anyone prohibit water, so that those who have received the Holy Spirit would not be baptized, just as we also have been?”
10:48	And he ordered them to be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then they begged him to remain with them for some days.

First Letter of John 4: 7- 10

4:7	Most beloved, let us love one another. For love is of God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
4:8	Whoever does not love, does not know God. For God is love.
4:9	The love of God was made apparent to us in this way: that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
4:10	In this is love: not as if we had loved God, but that he first loved us, and so he sent his Son as a propitiation for our sins.

約翰 15: 9- 17

15:9	As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Abide in my love.
15:10	If you keep my precepts, you shall abide in my love, just as I also have kept my Father’s precepts and I abide in his love.
15:11	這些話我跟你說過, so that my joy may be in you, and your joy may be fulfilled.
15:12	This is my precept: that you love one another, just as I have loved you.
15:13	No one has a greater love than this: that he lay down his life for his friends.
15:14	You are my friends, if you do what I instruct you.
15:15	I will no longer call you servants, for the servant does not know what his Lord is doing. But I have called you friends, because everything whatsoever that I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
15:16	You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you. And I have appointed you, so that you may go forth and bear fruit, and so that your fruit may last. Then whatever you have asked of the Father in my name, he shall give to you.
15:17	This I command you: that you love one another.

16:2	The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium rendered good testimony to him.

16:8	然後, when they had crossed through Mysia, they descended to Troas.
16:9	And a vision in the night was revealed to Paul of a certain man of Macedonia, standing and pleading with him, and saying: “Cross into Macedonia and help us!”
16:10	然後, after he saw the vision, immediately we sought to set out for Macedonia, having been assured that God had called us to evangelize to them.

Gospel

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. 然而真的, you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world; because of this, 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.

15:8	And last of all, he was seen also by me, as if I were someone born at the wrong time.

14:11	你不信我在父裡面，父在我裡面嗎？?

14:14	如果你以我的名義向我求任何東西, 我會做的.
