GospeL Verses ~ Luke 9:46-50

46 - Jesus' disciples were arguing about which one of them was the greatest. (lol) 47 And Jesus knew it, so he had a child come and stand beside him. 48  And he said to his disciples, “When you welcome even a child because of me, you welcome me. When you welcome me, you welcome the one who sent me. And whichever one of you is the most humble, that one is the greatest.”

     49 John said, “Master, we saw a man using your name to force demons out of people. But we told him to stop, because he isn't one of us.” 50 “Don't stop him!” Jesus said. “Anyone who isn't against you, is for you.”

                ~ 3 John 1:1-8 ~

1 - From the church leader.

To my dear friend Gaius.

     I love you because we follow the truth. 2 And I pray all goes well for you, dear friend. I hope you are as well and strong in body, as you are in spirit. 3 It makes me very happy when the Lord's followers come by and talk of how you are following the truth. 4 Nothing brings me greater happiness than to hear that my children (in the faith) are obeying the truth.

     5 Dear friend, you have always been faithful in helping other followers of the Lord, even the ones you don’t personally know. 6 They have told the church [ekklésia - from ek - out from and to, and kaléō - to call) – properly, people called out from the world and to God - an (the) assembly] about your love. They say you welcomed them gladly and sent them on their mission in a way God's servants deserve.

     7 When they left to tell others about the Lord, they decided not to accept help from anyone who isn’t a follower. 8 We should support people like them, so we can have part in what they are doing to spread the truth.
