Daily Bible Quote On The Resurrection

Mark 16:6
He said to them, “Don’t be amazed. You seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him!

Mark 16:6 is a verse from the Gospel of Mark. It describes the scene when the women who had come to the tomb of Jesus discovered that he had risen from the dead.

To understand the context of this verse, we can look at the preceding verses in Mark 16. In verses 1-5, the women, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had come to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus with spices. When they arrived, they found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance to the tomb, and they saw a young man dressed in white inside the tomb.

This young man is the one who speaks to the women in verse 6, telling them not to be amazed and explaining that Jesus has risen from the dead. The young man also instructs the women to tell the disciples and Peter that Jesus will meet them in Galilee.

Other gospel accounts of this event can provide additional context and cross-references. For example, in Matthew 28:5-7, an angel appears to the women at the tomb and tells them not to be afraid, and then gives them a similar message about Jesus' resurrection and his plans to meet with the disciples in Galilee.

In Luke 24:1-8, a group of women, including Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Joanna, go to the tomb and find it empty. Two men in dazzling clothes appear to them and ask why they are looking for the living among the dead, before explaining that Jesus has risen from the dead.

Mark 16:6 describes the pivotal moment when the women discover that Jesus has risen from the dead, and it provides a message of hope and triumph over death that is central to our belief.

Daily Bible Quote On Healing

Isaiah 53:5
But he was pierced for our transgressions.
He was crushed for our iniquities.
The punishment that brought our peace was on him;
and by his wounds we are healed.

Isaiah 53:5 is a prophecy about the suffering and death of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. The verse speaks of the Messiah being pierced and crushed for our transgressions and iniquities, and that his suffering brought us peace and healing.

Jesus fulfilled this prophecy through his death on the cross. He was pierced by nails and a spear, and he was crushed by the weight of the sins of the world that he bore on the cross. He took upon himself the punishment that we deserved, and through his sacrifice, he made peace between God and humanity possible.

The phrase "by his wounds we are healed" is often interpreted as referring to the spiritual healing that is available through our faith in Jesus Christ. We believe that through Jesus' sacrifice, we can be forgiven for our sins and reconciled to God, and that we can find healing and wholeness in our relationship with Him.

Daily Bible Quote On Jesus

John 12:8
For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.

John 12:1-8 recounts the story of Mary, the sister of Lazarus, anointing Jesus' feet with expensive perfume. This event occurred six days before the Passover, and Jesus was at the home of Simon the leper in Bethany. While Mary anointed Jesus' feet with the perfume, Judas Iscariot objected, saying that the perfume could have been sold and the money given to the poor.

In verse 7, Jesus responds to Judas' objection by saying, "Leave her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of my burial." In verse 8, Jesus then says, "For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me."

Jesus is not saying that we should not care for the poor or that the poor are not important. Rather, he is indicating that his time on earth is limited and that the opportunity to show love and devotion to him is rare and precious. The phrase "you always have the poor with you" is a reference to Deuteronomy 15:11, which states, "There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore, I command you to be openhanded toward your fellow Israelites who are poor and needy in your land."

In this context, Jesus is emphasizing the importance of recognizing and seizing opportunities to show love and devotion to him, as he will not always be physically present on earth. This does not diminish the importance of caring for the poor, but rather highlights the importance of prioritizing one's relationship with Jesus while he was present on earth.

Daily Bible Quote On House Of Prayer

Mark 11:17
He taught, saying to them, “Isn’t it written, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations?’ But you have made it a den of robbers!"

Mark 11:17 is part of a larger passage in the Gospel of Mark that describes Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. As Jesus entered the temple, he noticed that merchants and money changers had set up shop in the temple courts, and he became angry at what he saw as their desecration of the Holy Place.

In Mark 11:15-16, it says, "On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts."

Then in Mark 11:17, Jesus explains his actions by quoting from the book of Isaiah: "'Is it not written: "My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations"? But you have made it "a den of robbers."'" By invoking this scripture, Jesus is reminding his listeners of the original purpose of the temple, which was to be a place of worship and prayer for people from all nations.

However, the presence of merchants and money changers in the temple courts had turned the place into a marketplace rather than a house of prayer, and Jesus was angered by this desecration. His reference to the den of robbers suggests that he saw the merchants as engaging in dishonest or exploitative practices, taking advantage of the religious pilgrims who came to the temple to worship.

Mark 11:17 is a rebuke of the religious leaders who had allowed the temple to become a place of commerce rather than a place of worship. By overturning the tables and driving out the merchants, Jesus was making a statement about the importance of preserving the sanctity of religious places and the need to honor God with reverence and respect.

Daily Bible Quote On The Glory Of GOD

1 Corinthians 10:31
Whether therefore you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

1 Corinthians 10:31 is part of a larger passage where the Apostle Paul is warning the Corinthian church against idolatry and the dangers of participating in pagan feasts. In verses 14-22, St.Paul emphasizes that believers cannot participate in the Lord's table and also the table of demons.

In verse 23, St.Paul acknowledges that while all things may be lawful for believers, not all things are helpful or edifying. He then goes on to urge the Corinthians to prioritize the good of others over their own desires or freedoms.

It is in this context that St.Paul writes, "Whether therefore you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." St.Paul is urging believers to be mindful of their actions and how they impact others. Rather than simply seeking to exercise their own freedoms, they should seek to glorify God and edify others in all that they do.

In other words, believers should live their lives in such a way that their actions reflect the character and nature of God. This involves being mindful of the impact their actions have on others, and seeking to prioritize the good of others above their own desires. By doing so, they bring glory to God and reflect His love and grace to the world around them.

Daily Bible Quote On Eternal Life

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only born Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

John 3:16 is one of the most famous verses in the Bible, and it is a powerful statement about God's love for humanity. To understand this verse in context, it is helpful to look at the surrounding verses and the broader context of the Gospel of John.

In John 3, Jesus has a conversation with Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Jewish ruling council. Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night and acknowledges that he believes Jesus is a teacher from God because of the miracles he has performed. Jesus responds by telling Nicodemus that in order to see the kingdom of God, he must be born again, or born from above.

Nicodemus is confused by this statement, and Jesus goes on to explain that salvation comes through faith in him. He tells Nicodemus that just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up so that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

It is in this context that Jesus utters the famous words of John 3:16. He explains that God's love for the world is so great that he sent his only Son to offer salvation to all who believe in him. This salvation brings eternal life, which is a gift from God to those who have faith in Jesus.

The context of John 3 emphasizes the importance of faith in Jesus as the key to salvation and eternal life. God's love for humanity is demonstrated through the gift of his Son, and all who believe in Jesus will be saved.
