in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, darkness covered the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved over the waters. God then began creation by His spoken word. He commanded light to appear and separated the light from the darkness, calling them Day and Night.
God made the firmament to separate the waters above from the waters below and called it Heaven. He then gathered the waters together so that dry land appeared. The dry land was called Earth, while the gathered waters were called Seas. God also commanded the earth to produce grass, herbs, and fruit-bearing trees. Next, God created the sun, the moon, and the stars to give light to the earth and to mark seasons, days, and years. He created the fish and every living creature in the seas, as well as the birds of the air, and blessed them to be fruitful and multiply. After this, God created all the animals that live on land. Finally, God created man and woman in His own image and likeness. He blessed them, gave them dominion over all other creatures, and instructed them to be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. When God had finished His work, He saw that everything He had made was very good. On the seventh day, He rested from all His work, blessed the day, and made it holy.

During the reign of King Ahab, Elijah announced that there would be no rain in Israel except at his word because of the people's idolatry. As a result, God instructed Elijah to hide by the Brook Cherith. There, God intervened by providing water from the brook and commanding ravens to bring him bread and meat every morning and evening. When the brook eventually dried up because of the drought, God again intervened by sending Elijah to Zarephath, where a poor widow was instructed to provide food for him. Although the widow had only a handful of flour and a little oil, God miraculously ensured that the flour and oil never ran out throughout the period of the famine. While Elijah was staying with the widow, her only son became sick and died. The widow blamed Elijah for the tragedy, but Elijah prayed earnestly to God. God answered his prayer by restoring the child's life, demonstrating His power over death and bringing joy back to the widow's family. After Elijah's victory over the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, Queen Jezebel threatened to kill him. Out of fear, Elijah fled into the wilderness and became discouraged, praying that he might die. God did not abandon him. Instead, He sent an angel who provided him with food and water twice and encouraged him to continue his journey. Strengthened by this divine provision, Elijah travelled for forty days and forty nights to Mount Horeb. At Mount Horeb, God revealed Himself to Elijah, not through the strong wind, earthquake, or fire, but through a gentle whisper. God comforted Elijah, assured him that seven thousand Israelites had remained faithful, instructed him to anoint Hazael, Jehu, and Elisha, and renewed his courage to continue his prophetic mission.

During the repair of the Temple in Jerusalem, Hilkiah the high priest discovered the Book of the Law and handed it over to Shaphan the secretary. Shaphan read the book and later presented it to King Josiah, informing him that the Book of the Law had been found in the Temple. When the king heard the words of the Law, he tore his clothes as a sign of deep sorrow and repentance because he realized that the people of Judah had disobeyed God's commandments and were under His judgment. King Josiah then commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah to inquire of the Lord concerning the message contained in the Book of the Law. They went to the prophetess Huldah, who declared that God would bring judgment upon Judah because of the nation's idolatry and disobedience. However, because Josiah had humbled himself before God, torn his clothes, and wept in repentance, God promised that the disaster would not occur during his lifetime. After receiving Huldah's message, King Josiah gathered all the elders, priests, prophets, and the people of Judah and Jerusalem at the Temple. He personally read the Book of the Law to them and renewed the covenant before the Lord, promising to obey God's commandments with all his heart and soul. The people also joined him in renewing the covenant and committed themselves to serving the Lord faithfully.

After His baptism, Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness, where He fasted for forty days and forty nights. At the end of the fast, He became hungry, and the devil came to tempt Him. The first temptation was for Jesus to turn stones into bread to satisfy His hunger. Jesus refused and answered by quoting the Scriptures, saying, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." By doing this, He showed that obedience to God is more important than physical needs. The devil then took Jesus to the highest point of the Temple in Jerusalem and challenged Him to throw Himself down, claiming that the angels would protect Him. Jesus rejected the temptation by quoting the Scriptures again, saying, "You shall not put the Lord your God to the test." He refused to misuse God's power or demand miraculous protection. Finally, the devil took Jesus to a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. He promised to give them to Jesus if He would bow down and worship him. Jesus firmly rebuked the devil, saying, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve.'" The devil then left Him, and angels came and ministered to Jesus. Throughout the temptations, Jesus overcame the devil by remaining obedient to God, relying on the Word of God, refusing to compromise His mission, and resisting every temptation with faith and complete trust in His Father.

Jesus was travelling with His disciples when a man approached Him and volunteered to follow Him wherever He went. Jesus replied that foxes have holes and birds have nests, but the Son of Man had nowhere to lay His head. By this, He made it clear that anyone who wished to follow Him must be ready to endure hardship and should not expect worldly comfort. Jesus then invited another man to follow Him, but the man requested permission to first go and bury his father. Jesus answered, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God." He demanded that the work of God's kingdom should take priority over every other earthly obligation. Another man also expressed his willingness to follow Jesus but asked for permission to return home and bid farewell to his family. Jesus replied that no one who puts his hand to the plough and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God. This showed that a true disciple must be fully committed, avoid distractions, and never turn back after deciding to follow Christ. Through these encounters, Jesus taught that discipleship requires self-denial, complete commitment, willingness to suffer hardship, total obedience, and giving God's kingdom first place above personal interests and family attachments.

After the ascension of Jesus Christ, the apostles gathered in Jerusalem with about one hundred and twenty believers, devoting themselves to prayer. Peter stood up among them and explained that the Scriptures concerning Judas Iscariot, who had betrayed Jesus and later died, had been fulfilled. He declared that it was necessary to appoint another person to take Judas' place among the twelve apostles. Peter stated that the person to be chosen must be someone who had been with Jesus and the apostles throughout His earthly ministry, beginning from the baptism of John until the ascension of Jesus. Such a person also had to be a witness of Christ's resurrection. The believers nominated two qualified men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. They then prayed to God, asking Him, who knows the hearts of all people, to show which of the two He had chosen to take over the apostolic ministry left vacant by Judas. After praying, they cast lots, according to the Jewish custom of seeking God's decision. The lot fell on Matthias, and he was officially numbered with the eleven apostles, restoring the number of the apostles to twelve.

Lazarus, a close friend of Jesus who lived in Bethany with his sisters, Martha and Mary, became seriously ill. The two sisters sent a message to Jesus informing Him that the one He loved was sick. Although Jesus received the message, He deliberately remained where He was for two more days, saying that the sickness would ultimately bring glory to God. After the delay, Jesus travelled to Bethany. By the time He arrived, Lazarus had already been dead and buried for four days. Many Jews had gathered to comfort Martha and Mary because of their brother's death. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet Him and said that if He had been there, her brother would not have died. She, however, expressed confidence that God would grant whatever Jesus asked. Jesus assured her that Lazarus would rise again. Martha thought He was referring to the resurrection on the last day. Jesus then declared, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he may die, yet shall he live, and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die." He asked Martha whether she believed this, and she confessed that He was the Christ, the Son of God. Mary also came to Jesus weeping, and the mourners wept with her. Seeing their sorrow, Jesus was deeply moved and wept. He then went to Lazarus' tomb, which was closed with a stone. Jesus ordered that the stone be removed. After praying to the Father, He called out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" Lazarus came out alive, still wrapped in grave clothes. Jesus instructed the people to unbind him and let him go. This miracle caused many who witnessed it to believe in Him.

James taught that Christians should not show favouritism or discrimination because faith in Jesus Christ is incompatible with partiality. He illustrated this by describing a situation in which a rich man wearing fine clothes and a poor man in shabby clothes enter the assembly. If the rich man is given a place of honour while the poor man is told to stand or sit on the floor, such treatment is sinful because it judges people by outward appearance rather than by their true worth before God. James reminded believers that God has chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and heirs of His kingdom. He also pointed out that it is often the rich who oppress the poor and drag them before the courts, yet some Christians still give them special treatment. He warned that showing partiality is a violation of God's royal law, which commands believers to "Love your neighbour as yourself." James further taught that anyone who shows favouritism commits sin and becomes guilty before God because breaking one part of God's law makes a person accountable for the whole law. Therefore, Christians should speak and act as people who will be judged by the law of liberty. He concluded by stressing that mercy should be shown to everyone because mercy triumphs over judgment. Christians are therefore expected to treat all people equally with love, respect, fairness, and compassion, regardless of their wealth, social status, tribe, race, or position.

(i) Giving special honour and privileges to wealthy members while neglecting the poor.

(vi) Valuing material possessions and outward appearance more than genuine faith and Christian character.

Humility is the quality of being modest, meek, and free from pride. It is the willingness to recognize one's dependence on God and to place the interests of others above personal pride or selfish ambition.
(9b)
In his letter to the Philippians, Paul urged Christians to live in humility by avoiding selfish ambition, rivalry, and vain glory. Instead, they should regard others as more important than themselves and seek the welfare of others rather than their own interests. Paul presented Jesus Christ as the perfect example of humility. Although Christ existed in the form of God, He did not cling to His equality with God for His own advantage. Rather, He willingly emptied Himself by taking the form of a servant and becoming fully human. Jesus humbled Himself further by living a life of complete obedience to God. His humility was demonstrated in His willingness to suffer and die on the cross for the salvation of humanity, even though death on the cross was shameful and painful. Because of Christ's humility and obedience, God highly exalted Him and gave Him the name above every other name. Paul taught that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow in heaven, on earth, and under the earth and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Paul therefore encouraged believers to imitate Christ by living selfless lives, serving others with love, remaining obedient to God, and considering the needs of others above their own.
