"If I do not do the works of my Father..." John 10:37-38 (AeP Tyndale21 Version)

"If I do not do the works of my Father, do not believe me. But if I do, though you do not believe me, believe the works, so you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in him."

Luke 2:8-15 (AeP T21 version) "For to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."

"And there were in the same region shepherds who stayed in the field to keep watch over their flock at night. And, Look, the angel of the Lord was standing next to them, and the brightness of the Lord shined all around them, and they were very afraid. And the angel said to them, Do not be afraid, because Look, I bring you good news of great joy, which will come to all people. 

For to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this as a sign: You will find the child wrapped and laid in a manger. 

And suddenly there was with the angel a plethora of heavenly soldiers praising God, and saying, Glory to God on high and peace on earth, and to men, rejoicing. 

And it happened that as soon as the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, Let us now go to Bethlehem, and see this thing has happened which the Lord has shown to us."

"Only a little while the light is with you" (John 12:35-36, T21 Version)


Then Jesus said to them, Only a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, in case darkness comes over you. He who walks in darkness knows not where he goes. While you have light, believe in the light, so you may be the children of light. These things Jesus said, and left, and hid himself from them.

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find" Matt. 7:7-10 (AeP T21 version)

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For whoever asks receives; and he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks it will be opened. Is there any man among you who, if his son asks him for bread, would offer him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he gives him a snake?”

"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me..." Luke 4:18-30 (AeP T21 Version)

"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all those who were in the synagogue were fastened on him. And he began to say to them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

And all witnessed this, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son? And he said to them, You may very truly tell me this proverb, Doctor, heal yourself. Whatever we have heard that was done in Capernaum, do also here in your country.

 And he said, Truly I say to you, No prophet is accepted in his own country. But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land; But to none of them was Elijah sent, except to Zarephath, a city of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman of Syria. And as many as were in the synagogue, when they heard him, were furious, And they stood up, and threw him out of the city, and led him to the top of the hill on which their city had been built, so they could push him over it. But he walked right through the middle of them and went away."

"No man, having put his hand to the plow..." Luke 9:57-62 in the AeP T21 Version



"And it happened, that, as they went down the road, a man said to him, Lord, I will follow you wherever you go. And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head. And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me to first go and bury my father. Jesus said to him, Let the dead bury their dead. But go and preach the kingdom of God. And another also said, Lord, I will follow you, but first let me go and say goodbye to those who are at home at my house. And Jesus said to him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

"For every one that does evil hates the light" Jn. 3:17-21 in the AeP Tyndale21 Vers.


"For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He who believes in him will not be condemned. But he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the condemnation: That light has come into the world, and the men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, in case his deeds would be corrected. But he who does truth comes to the light, so his deeds might be known, how they are worked in God."

"What sign do you show to us" John 2:18-22 in the AeP T21 Gospels


"Then the Jews said to him, What sign do you show to us, seeing that you do these things?  Jesus answered to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.  Then the Jews said, Forty-six years this temple was being built, and you will raise it up in three days? But he spoke of the temple of his body. As soon, therefore, as he was risen from death, his disciples remembered that he had said this. And they believed the scripture, and the words that Jesus had said."

Matt. 13:54-57 (AeP T21) "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country."



"And when he had come to his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, From where did this man this wisdom and his mighty works come? Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brothers James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And are not his sisters all here with us? From where then did this man get all these things? And they were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house."

"No man can serve two masters..." Matt. 6:24 (AeP T21 version)

"And the second is like, namely this, You will love your neighbor as yourself." Mark 12:28-34 in the AeP T21 Version

"And one of the Scribes came who had heard them disputing together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first of all the commandments? And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, Oh, Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And you will love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your understanding, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, You will love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.

And the Scribe said to him, Well, Master, you have said the truth: for there is one God; and there is no other but he, And to love him with all the heart,and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.

And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that dared ask him any questions."

"These things I write to you, so you do not sin." 1 John 2:1-6 (AeP Tyndale21 Version

"My little children, these things I write to you, so you do not sin. If any man sins, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, who is righteous, And it is he who obtains grace for our sins, and not only for our sins, but also for the sins of all the world. And by this we are sure that we know him: if we keep his commandments. He who says, I know him, and does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Whoever keeps his word, in him is the love of God perfected in deed. And by that, we know that we are in him. He who said he lives in him ought to walk just as he walked."

Scripture: John 1:19-24 in the AeP T21 Version "I am the voice of a crier in the desert"

"And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you? And he confessed, and did not deny, but said plainly, I am not Christ. And they asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not. Are you a prophet? And he answered, No. Then they said to him, Who are you, so we may give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself? He said, I am the voice of a crier in the desert, Make straight the road of the Lord, as the prophet Isaiah said. And those who were sent were from the Pharisees."

Matthew 6:14-18 (AeP T21 Version) "Because if you do not forgive the sins of others..."


"Because if you will forgive the sins of others, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, But if you do not forgive the sins of others, your Father will no longer forgive your sins. Further, when you fast, do not be sad as the hypocrites are, because they disfigure their faces, so they may be seen by others to be fasting. Truly I say to you, they have their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face; So that you do not appear to be fasting, except to your Father who is hidden. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you openly."

John 15:4-8 (AeP T21 version) "Live in me, and let me live in you"

"Live in me, and let me live in you. As the branch cannot produce fruit by itself, unless it lives in the vine, no more can you, unless you live in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who lives in me, and I in him, will produce much fruit. Because without me, you can do nothing. If a man does not live in me, he is thrown out like a branch, and withers, and men gather it, and throw it into the fire, and it burns. If you live in me, and my words live in you, you will ask what you wish, and it will be done to you. In this, my Father is glorified - that you produce much fruit and be my disciples."

John 14:15-21 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version "If you love me, keep my commandments."

"If you love me, keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another comforter, so he may remain with you forever, Who is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because the world does not see him nor knows him. But you know him, because he lives with you, and will be in you. I will not leave you comfortless, but will come to you. In a little while, the world will see me no more, but you see me. Because I live, you will live, too. On that day, you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. He who has my commandments, and keeps them, that is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will show myself to him."

John 17:11b-19 in the AeP T21 Version "Holy Father, keep through your own name those whom you have given me..."

"Holy Father, keep through your own name those whom you have given me, so they may be one, as we are. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name. Those whom you gave me I have kept, and none of them is lost, except the son of perdition, so the scripture might be fulfilled. Now I come to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

I have given them your words, and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not desire that you would take them out of the world, but that you keep them from evil. They are not from the world, just as I am not from the world. Sanctify them through your truth. Your words are truth. As you sent me into the world, I have also sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so they also might be sanctified through the truth."

"As the Father has loved me, I have loved you. Continue in my love. If you will keep my commandments, you will live in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments, and live in his love. These things I have spoken to you, so my joy might remain in you, and so your joy might be full. This is my commandment, That you love one another, as I have loved you. No man has greater love than this: that a man give his life for his friends.

You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you. From now on I will not call you servants, because the servant does not know what his master does. But I have called you friends, because all things that I have heard from my Father I have opened to you. You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, so you would go and produce fruit, and that your fruit would remain, so whatever you ask from the Father in my name, he would give it you. These things I command you, that you love one another."

Matt. 28:16-20 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version: "...Go therefore, and teach all nations..."

"Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, onto a mountain where Jesus had told them to go. And when they saw him, they worshiped him, but some doubted. And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, All power is given to me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you. And, Look: I am with you always, even to the end of the world."

Matt. 19:1-19 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version "Let no man, therefore, put asunder that which God has coupled together."

And when Jesus had finished, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan; And large crowds followed him; and he healed them there. 

The Pharisees also came to him, tempting him, and saying to him, Is it legal for a man to divorce his wife for all kinds of reasons? And he said to them, Have you not read, that he who made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this reason will a man leave father and mother, and will join to his wife: and the two will be one flesh? So now they are not two, but one flesh. Let no man, therefore, put asunder that which God has coupled together. 

They said to him, Why did Moses then command to give a certificate of divorce, and to divorce her? 

He said to them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts allowed you to divorce your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. So, I say to you, Whoever divorces his wife (unless it is because of adultery) and then marries another, breaks wedlock. And whoever marries she who is divorced does also commit adultery.

"And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that you were talking about among yourselves along the way here? But they were silent, because during the trip, they were disputing among themselves who should be the greatest. And he sat down, and called the twelve, and said, If any man desires to be first, the same will be last of all, and servant of all. And he took a child, and set him in the middle of them, took him in his arms and he said to them, Whoever will receives a child like this in my name receives me, and whoever will receive me, receives not me, but him who sent me."

John 5:41-45 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version "I do not accept praise from men"

"I do not accept praise from men. But I know you, and that you do not have the love of God in you. I have come in my Father's name, and you did not accept me. If another will come in his own name, him you will accept. How can you believe, who accepts honors from one another, and do not seek the honor that comes only from God? Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, Moses, in whom you trust. Because if you had believed Moses, you would have believed me, because he wrote about me. But now that you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"

James 1:18-24 in the Tyndale21 Version (PREVIEW!)

"Of his own will, he gave birth to us with the word of life, so we would the first fruits of his creatures. So, dear brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger, For the anger of man does not work that which is righteousness in front of God. So, lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of maliciousness, and receive with meekness the word that is grafted into you, which is able to save your souls. And see that you are doers of the word, and not only hearers, deceiving yourselves with sophistry. Because if anyone hears the word and does not do it, he is like a man who sees his face in a mirror, As soon as he has looked at himself, he goes away and forgets immediately what his face looked like."

"And the same day, when evening came, he said to them, Let us pass over to the other side. And they let the crowd depart, and they took him across in a boat. And there were other boats with them. And a powerful wind storm came up, and sent waves flooding into the boat. And he was in the back part of the boat, asleep on a pillow, and they woke him, and said, Master, do you not care if we die? And he stood up, and yelled at the wind, and said to the sea, Peace! Be still. And the wind stopped and there was a great calm. And he said to them, Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith? But they feared greatly, and said to each other, What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"

John 3:1-7 (AeP Tyndale21 Version)

"There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler among the Jews, Who came to Jesus by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. Because no man could do such miracles as you do, unless God is with him. Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man be born newly, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus said to him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter into his mother's womb and be born again? Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not be amazed that I said to you, You must be born again."

Matthew 19:16-26 (AeP Tyndale21 Version)

"And someone came and said to him, Good Master, what good thing should I do, so I might have eternal life? And he said to him, Why do you call me good? There is no one good but God. But if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments. He said to him, Which? Jesus said, do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not steal, do not bear false witness; Honor your father and mother: and, love your neighbor as yourself. The young man said to him, I have observed all these things since my youth, what do I still lack? Jesus said to him, If you wish to be perfect, go and sell all things that you have, and give it to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come and follow me. But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions. Then said Jesus to his disciples, Truly I say to you, it is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say to you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. When his disciples heard it, they were amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? But Jesus saw them, and said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible."

Matt. 15:1-9 (Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version)

"Then Scribes and Pharisees from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying, Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread. But he said to them, Why do you also break the commandment of God with your traditions? For God commanded: Honor your father and mother: and, He who insults father or mother let him be put to death. But you say, Every man should say to his father or mother: That which you desire from me to help. This people draws near to me with their mouths, and honors me with their lips; but their hearts are far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching doctrines that are nothing but the precepts of men."

"The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the Elders and chief priests and Scribes, and be slain, and on the third day raised again. And he said to them, If any man wishes to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. Because what advantage is there if a person wins the whole world, but loses himself, or throws himself away?"

Matt. 6:1-6 in the AeP Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"Be careful of your charity, so that you not give it in front of others, with the intention that you be seen by them. Or else you will get no reward from your Father, who is in heaven. Whenever you give your charity, you will not blow a trumpet in front of you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so they will be praised by others. Truly, I say to you they have their reward. But when you do your charity, Do not let your left hand know what your right hand has done. So that your charity may be secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you openly. And when you pray, you should not be like the hypocrites are, because they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners, because they wish to be seen by others. Truly I say to you, They have their reward. But when you pray, enter into your closet, shut the door, and pray to your Father, who is in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you openly."

Matthew 11:7-15 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind? But what went did you go out for to see? A man clothed in soft clothes? Look, those who wear soft clothing are in kings' palaces. But what did you go out there to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet. For this is he of whom it is written, Look, I send my messenger in front of your face, who will prepare the way in front of you. Truly I say to you, Among those who are born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist: but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than him. And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven allows violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied up until John. And if you will receive it, he is Elijah, who is to come. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

Luke 6:46-49 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version

"And why do you call me, Master, Master, and do not do as I say? Whoever comes to me, hears my sayings, and does them, I will show you whom he is like. He is like a man who built a house, and he dug deep, and laid the foundation in rock. When the river burst, the floodwaters beat on that house but could not move it. Because it was grounded on rock. But he who hears, but does not act, is like a man who built a house in the dirt, without a foundation. Against which the flood beat against it, and it fell immediately. And the fall of that house was great."
- Luke 6:46-49 (Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version)
