GospeL Verses ~ Mark 8:34-9:1

34 - Jesus called the crowd of people to come and listen, and he said, “If anyone would come after me, let them deny their self and take up their cross and follow after me. 35 For whoever would save their life will ruin it, but whoever lets loose of their life for my sake and the gospel's sake, will save it. 36 For what does it profit a person to gain the whole world and forfeit their soul? [Psyxḗ - from psyxō - to breathe, blow, which is the root of the English words psyche and psychology – soul/psyche, a person's distinct identity, unique personhood, i.e. individual personality.]

     37 For what can a person give in return for their soul/being? 38 For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this unfaithful and wrong thinking generation, then also will the Son of man be ashamed of them when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.  (Who does he arrive with?) 9 Truly, I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they have seen the kingdom of God having come with power. [Dýnamis - from dýnamai, energy, ability, force. (Pentecost)]

From New Testament Letters

     (In the Order Believed Written)

                ~ 1John 4:19-21 ~

19 - And now we love, because he first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates their brother or sister, they are a liar [pseústēs - from pseúdomai]. For whoever doesn’t love their brother or sister who they see, cannot love God who is not seen. 21 And this is the commandment we have from him - whoever loves God must also love their fellow (person). (The literal - “the one loving God, love also the brother/sister  of them - greek “same womb” of them; aka Eve.)
