Mark 1:9-13
9At that same time Jesus came from Nazareth, which is in the district of Galilee, and John baptized Him in the Jordan. 10And just as Jesus was stepping up out of the water, He saw the heavens spliting open, and the Spirit coming down on Him, like a dove. 11Then a voice came out of the sky. "You are My Son," it said, "My own dear Son. You have made Me very,very happy."
12And right away the Spirit drove Jesus out into the desert, 13where He stayed for forty days while He was being tested by Satan. He lived among the wild animals, but the angels were always taking care of Him.
John 1:1-5
1The Word was living
before the world was created.
He was living with God,
because He was God.
2This the one I'm writing about -
the one who was living with God
before the world was created.
3He created everything,
and there wasn't one single thing created
that he didn't create.
4He was the source of Life;
and His Life was the source of the light people need.
5This light is still shining in the darkness,
for the darkness never put it out.
1 Corinthians 15:1-8
1And now, brothers and sisters, I'm going to remind you of the Good News I brought to you and you received, and on which you're now standing firmly. 2That message is also bringing you salvation, if you're really holding on to it, and if you have a true faith.
3You see, I passed on to you the things I had also learned. And some of the most important things were that Christ died for our sins, just as the Bible says, 4and that He was buried, and that He was raised back to life on the third day, just as the Bible says. 5I also told you that Peter saw Him, and later the twelve apostles also saw Him. 6And after this, over five hundred brothers and sisters saw Him, all at the same time. Most of these people are still alive, although some of them have fallen asleep. 7After this James saw Him, and then all the apostles. 8And last of all, He appeared to me, although I was like a child that is born too early and isn't a normal child.
