John 15:12-17 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version

"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."

Luke 1:1-4 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the NT Gospels

"Since many have taken a hand in compiling a treatise about those things which are surely known among us, Even as they declared them to us, who saw them for themselves from the beginning, and were ministers of the word, I determined also as soon as I had searched out diligently all things from the beginning, that I then would write to you, good Theophilus, So that you might know the certainty of those things of which you have been instructed."

The Beatitudes in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

When he saw the people, he went up onto a hill. And when he was seated, his disciples came to him.
And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
Blessed are the poor in spirit, because theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, because they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, because they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, because they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful, because they will obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, because they will see God.
Blessed are the maintainers of peace, because they will be called the children of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, because theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.
Blessed are you, when men insult you, and pursue you, and say all kinds of evil things against you falsely, for my sake.
Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great, and this is the way they persecuted the prophets before your time.

Matthew 19:3-11 from the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version

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?" He answered, "Have you not read how he who made them in the beginning made them man and woman?" And said, "For this reason a man will 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." Then his disciples say to him, "If this is the case between a man and his wife, it is not good to marry." He said to them, "All men cannot receive this saying, except those to whom it is given."

Matt. 7:7 to Matt. 7:12 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"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?

So if those who are evil know how to give your children good gifts, how much more will your Father, who is in heaven, give good things to those who ask him? Therefore, whatever you wish others would do to you, do to them. This is the Law and the Prophets."

Luke 18:15-17 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

"And they brought to him also infants, so he could touch them. When his disciples saw it, they yelled at them. But Jesus called them to him, and said, 'Allow the little children to come to me, and do not forbid them. Because of such is the kingdom of God. Truly I say to you, Whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child, he will not enter into it.'" Lk 18:15-17
