And he brought Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said,“ You are Simon, son of John. You will be called Cephas.” Cephas means Peter, or Rock.

When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw Peter’s mother- in- law. She was lying in bed. She had a fever.

I wish all of you were single like me. But you each have your own gift from God. One has this gift, and another has that one.

They all came together regularly to pray. The women joined them too. So did Jesus’ mother Mary and his brothers.

All of you should honor marriage. You should keep the marriage bed pure. God will judge the person who commits adultery. He will judge everyone who commits sexual sins.

I didn’t see any of the other apostles. I only saw James, the Lord’s brother.

A leader must be free from blame. He must be faithful to his wife. In anything he does, he must not go too far. He must control himself. He must be worthy of respect. He must welcome people into his home. He must be able to teach.

My bride, you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes. My sister, you have stolen my heart with one jewel in your necklace.My bride, your love is so delightful. My sister, your love makes me happier than wine does. Your perfume smells better than any spice.

An elder must be without blame. He must be faithful to his wife. His children must be believers. They must not give anyone a reason to say that they are wild and don’t obey.

Treat older women as if they were your mothers. Treat younger women as if they were your sisters. Be completely pure in the way you treat them.

My bride, you are like a garden that is locked up. My sister, you are like a spring of water that has a fence around it. You are like a fountain that is sealed up.

Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son? Isn’t this the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” They were not pleased with him at all.

While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside. They wanted to speak to him.Someone told him,“ Your mother and brothers are standing outside. They want to speak to you.”Jesus replied to him,“ Who is my mother? And who are my brothers?”Jesus pointed to his disciples. He said,“ Here is my mother! Here are my brothers!Anyone who does what my Father in heaven wants is my brother or sister or mother.”

But if the unbeliever leaves, let that person go. In that case, the believer does not have to stay married to the unbeliever. God wants us to live in peace.

A woman has to stay married to her husband as long as he lives. If he dies, she is free to marry anyone she wants to. But the one she marries must belong to the Lord.

Here is what I mean. One of you says,“ I follow Paul.” Another says,“ I follow Apollos.” Another says,“ I follow Peter.” And still another says,“ I follow Christ.”

“ My bride, I have come into my garden. My sister, I’ve gathered my myrrh and my spice. I’ve eaten my honeycomb and my honey. I’ve drunk my wine and my milk.”“ Friends, eat and drink. Drink up all the love you want.”“ I slept, but my heart was awake. Listen! The one who loves me is knocking. He says,‘ My sister, I love you. Open up so I can come in. You are my dove. You are perfect in every way. My head is soaked with dew. The night air has made my hair wet.’

I would like you to welcome our sister Phoebe. She is a deacon of the church in Cenchreae.

“ Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother’s name Mary? Aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas?

After this, Jesus went down to Capernaum. His mother and brothers and disciples went with him. They all stayed there for a few days.

Matthew Thomas James, son of Alphaeus Simon who was called the Zealot

Simon’s mother- in- law was lying in bed with a fever. They told Jesus about her right away.

They do not allow people to get married. They order them not to eat certain foods. But God created those foods. So people who believe and know the truth should receive them and give thanks for them.
