The One (Jesus) who makes people holy {\cf2\super [12]} and those people who are made holy are from the same family. So he (Jesus) is not ashamed to call those people his brothers and sisters.
If any person is ashamed of me and my teaching, then I {\cf2\super [171]} will be ashamed of that person. I will be ashamed of that person at the time I come with my glory and with the glory of the Father and the holy angels.
Father, I pray that all people that believe in me can be one. You are in me and I am in you. I pray that these people can also be one in us, so that the world will believe that you sent me.
Jesus said to her, “Don’t hold me. I have not yet gone back up to the Father. But go to my brothers (followers) and tell them this: ‘I am going back to my Father and your Father. I am going back to my God and your God.’”
God began by making one man (Adam). From him God made all the different people. God made them to live everywhere in the world. God decided exactly when and where they must live.
God knew those people before he made the world. And God decided that those people would be like his Son (Jesus). Then Jesus would be the firstborn {\cf2\super [69]} of many brothers and sisters.
Jesus Christ did the things God wanted him to do. And because of that, we are made holy through the sacrifice {\cf2\super [126]} of Christ’s body. Christ made that sacrifice one time—enough for all time.
But those men were waiting for a better country—a heavenly country. So God is not ashamed to be called their God. And God has prepared a city for those men.
Those children are people with physical bodies. So Jesus himself became like those people and had the same experiences people have. Jesus did this so that, by dying, he could destroy the one who has the power of death. That one is the devil.
So all of you should think about Jesus. God sent Jesus to us, and he is the high priest {\cf2\super [15]} of our faith. I tell you to think about him, my brothers and sisters, because God chose you to be his holy {\cf2\super [16]} people.
