የዕለቱ ግጻዌ ምንባባት
1ኛ የዮሐንስ መልእክት 1 : 1 -
ስለ ሕይወት ቃል ከመጀመሪያው የነበረውንና የሰማነውን በዓይኖቻችንም ያየነውን የተመለከትነውንም እጆቻችንም የዳሰሱትን እናወራለን፤ ሕይወትም ተገለጠ አይተንማል እንመሰክርማለን፥ ከአብ ዘንድ የነበረውንም ለእኛም የተገለጠውን የዘላለምን ሕይወት እናወራላችኋለን፤ እናንተ ደግሞ ከእኛ ጋር ኅብረት እንዲኖራችሁ ያየነውንና የሰማነውን ለእናንተ ደግሞ እናወራላችኋለን። ኅብረታችንም ከአባት ጋር ከልጁም ከኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ ጋር ነው። ደስታችሁም እንዲፈጸም ይህን እንጽፍላችኋለን። ከእርሱም የሰማናት ለእናንተም የምናወራላችሁ መልእክት፡— እግዚአብሔር ብርሃን ነው ጨለማም በእርሱ ዘንድ ከቶ የለም የምትል ይህች ናት። ከእርሱ ጋር ኅብረት አለን ብንል በጨለማም ብንመላለስ እንዋሻለን እውነትንም አናደርግም፤ ነገር ግን እርሱ በብርሃን እንዳለ በብርሃን ብንመላለስ ለእያንዳንዳችን ኅብረት አለን፥ የልጁም የኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ ደም ከኃጢአት ሁሉ ያነጻናል። ኃጢአት የለብንም ብንል ራሳችንን እናስታለን፥ እውነትም በእኛ ውስጥ የለም። በኃጢአታችን ብንናዘዝ ኃጢአታችንን ይቅር ሊለን ከዓመፃም ሁሉ ሊያነጻን የታመነና ጻድቅ ነው። ኃጢአትን አላደረግንም ብንል ሐሰተኛ እናደርገዋለን ቃሉም በእኛ ውስጥ የለም።
የሐዋርያት ሥራ 8 : 14 - 26
በኢየሩሳሌምም የነበሩት ሐዋርያት የሰማርያ ሰዎች የእግዚአብሔርን ቃል እንደተቀበሉ ሰምተው ጴጥሮስንና ዮሐንስን ሰደዱላቸው። እነርሱም በወረዱ ጊዜ መንፈስ ቅዱስን ይቀበሉ ዘንድ ጸለዩላቸው፤ በጌታ በኢየሱስ ስም ብቻ ተጠምቀው ነበር እንጂ ከእነርሱ በአንዱ ላይ ስንኳ ገና አልወረደም ነበርና። በዚያን ጊዜ እጃቸውን ጫኑባቸው መንፈስ ቅዱስንም ተቀበሉ። ሲሞንም በሐዋርያት እጅ መጫን መንፈስ ቅዱስ እንዲሰጥ ባየ ጊዜ፥ ገንዘብ አመጣላቸውና፡— እጄን የምጭንበት ሁሉ መንፈስ ቅዱስን ይቀበል ዘንድ ለእኔ ደግሞ ይህን ሥልጣን ስጡኝ፡ አለ። ጴጥሮስ ግን እንዲህ አለው፡— የእግዚአብሔርን ስጦታ በገንዘብ እንድታገኝ አስበሃልና ብርህ ከአንተ ጋር ይጥፋ። ልብህ በእግዚአብሔር ፊት የቀና አይደለምና ከዚህ ነገር ዕድል ወይም ፈንታ የለህም። እንግዲህ ስለዚህ ክፋትህ ንሰሐ ግባ፥ ምናልባትም የልብህን አሳብ ይቅር ይልህ እንደ ሆነ ወደ እግዚአብሔር ለምን፤ በመራራ መርዝና በዓመፅ እስራት እንዳለህ አይሃለሁና። ሲሞንም መልሶ፡— ካላችሁት አንዳች እንዳይደርስብኝ እናንተው ወደ ጌታ ለምኑልኝ፡ አላቸው። እነርሱም ከመሰከሩና የጌታን ቃል ከተናገሩ በኋላ ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም ተመለሱ፤ በሳምራውያን በብዙ መንደሮችም ወንጌልን ሰበኩ። የጌታም መልአክ ፊልጶስን፡— ተነሥተህ በደቡብ በኩል ከኢየሩሳሌም ወደ ጋዛ ወደሚያወርደው ምድረ በዳ ወደ ሆነ መንገድ ሂድ፡ አለው።
መዝሙረ ዳዊት 36 : 30 - 31
የጻድቅ አፍ ጥበብን ያስተምራል፥ አንደበቱም ፍርድን ይናገራል። የአምላኩ ሕግ በልቡ ውስጥ ነው፥ በእርምጃውም አይሰናከልም።
የማቴዎስ ወንጌል 5 : 8 - 31
ልበ ንጹሖች ብፁዓን ናቸው፥ እግዚአብሔርን ያዩታልና። የሚያስተራርቁ ብፁዓን ናቸው፥ የእግዚአብሔር ልጆች ይባላሉና። ስለ ጽድቅ የሚሰደዱ ብፁዓን ናቸው፥ መንግሥተ ሰማያት የእነርሱ ናትና። ሲነቅፉአችሁና ሲያሳድዱአችሁ በእኔም ምክንያት ክፉውን ሁሉ በውሸት ሲናገሩባችሁ ብፁዓን ናችሁ። ዋጋችሁ በሰማያት ታላቅ ነውና ደስ ይበላችሁ፥ ሐሴትም አድርጉ፤ ከእናንተ በፊት የነበሩትን ነቢያትን እንዲሁ አሳድደዋቸዋልና። እናንተ የምድር ጨው ናችሁ፤ ጨው አልጫ ቢሆን ግን በምን ይጣፍጣል? ወደ ውጭ ተጥሎ በሰው ከመረገጥ በቀር ወደ ፊት ለምንም አይጠቅምም። እናንተ የዓለም ብርሃን ናችሁ። በተራራ ላይ ያለች ከተማ ልትሰወር አይቻላትም። መብራትንም አብርተው ከዕንቅብ በታች አይደለም እንጂ በመቅረዙ ላይ ያኖሩታል በቤት ላሉት ሁሉም ያበራል። መልካሙን ሥራችሁን አይተው በሰማያት ያለውን አባታችሁን እንዲያከብሩ ብርሃናችሁ እንዲሁ በሰው ፊት ይብራ። እኔ ሕግንና ነቢያትን ለመሻር የመጣሁ አይምሰላችሁ፤ ልፈጽም እንጂ ለመሻር አልመጣሁም። እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ ሰማይና ምድር እስኪያልፍ ድረስ፥ ከሕግ አንዲት የውጣ ወይም አንዲት ነጥብ ከቶ አታልፍም፥ ሁሉ እስኪፈጸም ድረስ። እንግዲህ ከነዚህ ከሁሉ ካነሱት ትእዛዛት አንዲቱን የሚሽር ለሰውም እንዲሁ የሚያስተምር ማንም ሰው በመንግሥተ ሰማያት ከሁሉ ታናሽ ይባላል፤ የሚያደርግ ግን የሚያስተምርም ማንም ቢሆን እርሱ በመንግሥተ ሰማያት ታላቅ ይባላል። እላችኋለሁና፡— ጽድቃችሁ ከጻፎችና ከፈሪሳውያን ጽድቅ ካልበለጠ፥ ወደ መንግሥተ ሰማያት ከቶ አትገቡም። ለቀደሙት፡— አትግደል፡ እንደ ተባለ ሰምታችኋል፤ የገደለም ሁሉ ፍርድ ይገባዋል። እኔ ግን እላችኋለሁ፥ በወንድሙ ላይ የሚቆጣ ሁሉ ፍርድ ይገባዋል፤ ወንድሙንም ጨርቃም የሚለው ሁሉ የሸንጎ ፍርድ ይገባዋል፤ ደንቆሮ የሚለውም ሁሉ የገሃነመ እሳት ፍርድ ይገባዋል። እንግዲህ መባህን በመሠዊያው ላይ ብታቀርብ፥ በዚያም ወንድምህ አንዳች በአንተ ላይ እንዳለው ብታስብ፥ በዚያ በመሠዊያው ፊት መባህን ትተህ ሂድ፥ አስቀድመህም ከወንድምህ ጋር ታረቅ፥ በኋላም መጥተህ መባህን አቅርብ። አብረኸው በመንገድ ሳለህ ከባላጋራህ ጋር ፈጥነህ ተስማማ፤ ባላጋራ ለዳኛ እንዳይሰጥህ ዳኛም ለሎሌው፥ ወደ ወህኒም ትጣላለህ፤ እውነት እልሃለሁ፥ የመጨረሻዋን ሳንቲም እስክትከፍል ድረስ ከቶ ከዚያ አትወጣም። አታመንዝር እንደ ተባለ ሰምታችኋል። እኔ ግን እላችኋለሁ፥ ወደ ሴት ያየ ሁሉ የተመኛትም ያን ጊዜ በልቡ ከእርስዋ ጋር አመንዝሮአል። ቀኝ ዓይንህም ብታሰናክልህ አውጥተህ ከአንተ ጣላት፤ ሙሉ ሰውነትህ በገሃነም ከሚጣል ይልቅ ከአካላትህ አንድ ቢጠፋ ይሻልሃልና። ቀኝ እጅህም ብታሰናክልህ ቆርጠህ ከአንተ ጣላት፤ ሙሉ ሰውነትህ በገሃነም ከሚጣል ይልቅ ከአካላትህ አንድ ቢጠፋ ይሻላልና። ሚስቱን የሚፈታት ሁሉ የፍችዋን ጽሕፈት ይስጣት ተባለ።

1 John 1 : 1 -
1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; 2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) 3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. 5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Acts 8 : 14 - 26
14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: 15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: 16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) 17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. 18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, 19 Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. 20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. 21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God. 22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee. 23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity. 24 Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me. 25 And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans. 26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
Psalms 36 : 30 - 31
30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment. 31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
Matthew 5 : 8 - 31
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. 10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. 13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. 17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. 21 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: 22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. 23 Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; 24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. 25 Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. 26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing. 27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: 28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. 29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 30 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
