First Sunday- Today
• 'Elementary teachings about Christ-Fundamentals
for a strong foundation' (base verse Hebrews 6:1-3)
• Foundation should be strong- Luke 6.47-49/Mat
7.24-27
47"Everyone who comes to Me and hears My words
and acts on them, I will show you whom he is like:
48he is like a man building a house, who dug deep
and laid a foundation on the rock; and when a flood
occurred, the torrent burst against that house and
could not shake it, because it had been well built.…
Heb 5:11 We have much to say about this, but it
is hard to make it clear to you because you no
longer try to understand. 12In fact, though by
this time you ought to be teachers, you need
someone to teach you the elementary truths
of God’s word all over again. You need milk,
not solid food! 13Anyone who lives on milk,
being still an infant, is not acquainted with the
teaching about righteousness. 14But solid
food is for the mature, who by constant use
have trained themselves to distinguish good
from evil.
Heb 6:1Therefore let us move beyond the
elementary teachings about Christ and be
taken forward to maturity, not laying again
the foundation of repentance from acts
that lead to Death,a and of faith in God,
2instruction about cleansing rites,b the
laying on of hands, the resurrection of the
dead, and eternal judgment. 3And God
permitting, we will do so.

Mat 26: 6- Now when Jesus was in Bethany, at the
home of Simon the leper, 7a woman came to Him
with an alabaster vial of very costly perfume, and
she poured it on His head as He reclined at the
table. 8But the disciples were indignant when they
saw this, and said, "Why this waste? 9"For this
perfume might have been sold for a high price and
the money given to the poor." 10But Jesus, aware of
this, said to them, "Why do you bother the woman?
For she has done a good deed to Me. 11"For you
always have the poor with you; but you do not
always have Me. 12"For when she poured this
perfume on My body, she did it to prepare Me for
burial. 13"Truly I say to you, wherever this gospel is
preached in the whole world, what this woman has
done will also be spoken of in memory of her."
14Then one of the twelve, named Judas Iscariot,
went to the chief priests 15and said, "What are
you willing to give me to betray Him to you?"
And they weighed out thirty pieces of silver to
him 16From then on he began looking for a
good opportunity to betray Jesus.
Mark 14: 1Now the Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread were only
two days away, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were
scheming to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him. 2“But not during the
festival,” they said, “or the people may riot.”
3While he was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of Simon the
Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume,
made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his
head. 4Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another,
“Why this waste of perfume? 5It could have been sold for more than a
year’s wagesa and the money given to the poor.” And they rebuked her
harshly. 6“Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She
has done a beautiful thing to me. 7The poor you will always have with
you,b and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always
have me. 8She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body
beforehand to prepare for my burial. 9Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel
is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in
memory of her.” 10Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the
chief priests to betray Jesus to them. 11They were delighted to hear this
and promised to give him money. So he watched for an opportunity to
hand him over.
• John 12: 1Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany,
where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2Here
a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served, while Lazarus
was among those reclining at the table with him. 3Then Mary took
about a pinta of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on
Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was
filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
• 4But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray
him, objected, 5“Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money
given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.b ” 6He did not say
this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief;
as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was
put into it.
• 7“Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should
save this perfume for the day of my burial. 8You will always have
the poor among you,c but you will not always have me.”
• 9Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there
and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus, whom
he had raised from the dead. 10So the chief priests made plans to
kill Lazarus as well, 11for on account of him many of the Jews were
going over to Jesus and believing in him.
Luke 22: 1Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the
Passover, was approaching, 2and the chief priests and the
teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus,
for they were afraid of the people. 3Then Satan entered Judas,
called Iscariot, one of the Twelve. 4And Judas went to the chief
priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with
them how he might betray Jesus. 5They were delighted and
agreed to give him money. 6He consented, and watched for an
opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was
present.
Luke 22: 31“Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift (all of you/each
of you/you- hymas-second person plural pronoun) as wheat.
32But I have prayed for you (sou-second person singular
pronoun), Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have
turned back, strengthen your brothers.”
(33But he replied, “Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.”
34Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will
John 13. 2The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already
prompted Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.
5After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’
feet…And you are clean, though not every one of you.” 11For he knew who
was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean.
12When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned
to his place.
21After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, “Very truly I
tell you, one of you is going to betray me.” 22His disciples stared at one
another, at a loss to know which of them he meant. 23One of them, the
disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him. 24Simon Peter
motioned to this disciple and said, “Ask him which one he means.”
25Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
26Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I
have dipped it in the dish.” Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to
Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
27As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him,
“What you are about to do, do quickly.” 28But no one at the meal
understood why Jesus said this to him. 29Since Judas had charge of the
money, some thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the
festival, or to give something to the poor. 30As soon as Judas had taken the
bread, he went out. And it was night.
• Matthew 27:3- Then Judas, which had betrayed
him, when he saw that he was condemned,
repented himself, and brought again the thirty
pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders
saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent
blood..and throwing down the pieces of silver into
the temple, he departed, and he went and hanged
himself.
• Faith toward (in, upon) God - Toward (not against,
not running away, but to run to Him (Judas Vs PeterMat 27.3, Mat 26.75, 2 Cor 7:10: Godly sorrow
brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves
no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death) –

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear?
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
We have already come
'Tis grace that brought safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun
First
Sunday
song
Are you washed in the Blood,
In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb?
Are your garments spotless?
Are they white as snow?
Are you washed in the Blood of the Lamb?
--Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
