HOW JESUS BEGAN HIS MINISTRY
Matthew 3:13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to
John at the Jordan to be baptized by him. 14 And
John tried to prevent Him, saying, "I need to be
baptized by You, and are You coming to me?" 15
But Jesus answered and said to him, "Permit it to
be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all
righteousness." Then he allowed Him. 16 When
He had been baptized, Jesus came up
immediately from the water; and behold, the
heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the
Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting
upon Him. 17 And suddenly a voice came from
heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom
I am well pleased.

Matthew 4:18 And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee,
saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his
brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were
fishermen. 19 Then He said to them, "Follow Me, and I
will make you fishers of men." 20 They immediately left
their nets and followed Him. 21 Going on from there, He
saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and
John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father,
mending their nets. He called them, 22 and immediately
they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
Matthew 9:9 As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a
man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said
to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him.
Matthew 9:10 Now it happened, as Jesus sat at
the table in the house, that behold, many tax
collectors and sinners came and sat down with
Him and His disciples. 11 And when the
Pharisees saw it, they said to His disciples, "Why
does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and
sinners?" 12 When Jesus heard that, He said to
them, "Those who are well have no need of a
physician, but those who are sick. 13 "But go and
learn what this means: 'I desire mercy and not
sacrifice.' For I did not come to call the righteous,
but sinners, to repentance."
John 2:1 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of
Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Now both
Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. 3
And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said
to Him, "They have no wine." 4 Jesus said to her,
"Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My
hour has not yet come." 5 His mother said to the
servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it." 6 Now there
were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the
manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or
thirty gallons apiece. 7 Jesus said to them, "Fill the
waterpots with water." And they filled them up to the
brim. 8 And He said to them, "Draw some out now, and
take it to the master of the feast." And they took it.
9 When the master of the feast had tasted the water that
was made wine, and did not know where it came from
(but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the
master of the feast called the bridegroom. 10 And he said
to him, "Every man at the beginning sets out the good
wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the
inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!" 11 This
beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and
manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.
John 4:5 So He came to a city of Samaria which is called
Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son
Joseph. 6 Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore,
being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It
was about the sixth hour. 7 ¶ A woman of Samaria came
to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give Me a drink." 8 For
His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food. 9
Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, "How is it that
You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan
woman?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans. 10
Jesus answered and said to her, "If you knew the gift of
God, and who it is who says to you, 'Give Me a drink,' you
would have asked Him, and He would have given you
living water."
11 The woman said to Him, "Sir, You have nothing to
draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get
that living water? 12 "Are You greater than our father
Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as
well as his sons and his livestock?" 13 Jesus answered
and said to her, "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst
again, 14 "but whoever drinks of the water that I shall
give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give
him will become in him a fountain of water springing up
into everlasting life." 15 The woman said to Him, "Sir,
give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to
draw." 16 ¶ Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and
come here." 17 The woman answered and said, "I have
no husband." Jesus said to her, "You have well said, 'I
have no husband,'
18 "for you have had five husbands, and the one whom
you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke
truly." 19 The woman said to Him, "Sir, I perceive that
You are a prophet. 20 "Our fathers worshiped on this
mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place
where one ought to worship." 21 Jesus said to her,
"Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will
neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the
Father. 22 "You worship what you do not know; we know
what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. 23 "But the
hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will
worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is
seeking such to worship Him. 24 "God is Spirit, and those
who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."
25 The woman said to Him, "I know that Messiah is
coming" (who is called Christ). "When He comes, He will
tell us all things." 26 Jesus said to her, "I who speak to
you am He." 27 And at this point His disciples came, and
they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one
said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why are You talking with
her?" 28 The woman then left her waterpot, went her
way into the city, and said to the men, 29 "Come, see a
Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be
the Christ?"
John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees named
Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 This man came to
Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that
You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do
these signs that You do unless God is with him." 3
Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I
say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see
the kingdom of God." 4 Nicodemus said to Him, "How
can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a
second time into his mother's womb and be born?" 5
Jesus answered, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless
one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter
the kingdom of God.
Matthew 5:44 "But I say to you, love your
enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to
those who hate you, and pray for those who
spitefully use you and persecute you, 45 "that
you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He
makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good,
and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46
"For if you love those who love you, what reward
have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the
same? 47 "And if you greet your brethren only,
what do you do more than others? Do not even
the tax collectors do so?
Mark 16:15 And He said to them, "Go into all the
world and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 "He who believes and is baptized will be
saved; but he who does not believe will be
condemned.
Acts 1:8 "But you shall receive power when the
Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be
witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea
and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."
1 Timothy 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in
the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all
men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of
the truth.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His
promise, as some count slackness, but is
longsuffering toward us, not willing that any
should perish but that all should come to
repentance.
