“ But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four- drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.”

“ But we don’t want to make them angry. So go to the lake and throw out your fishing line. Take the first fish you catch. Open its mouth. There you will find the exact coin you need. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.”

For since I am free from all I can make myself a slave to all, in order to gain even more people.To the Jews I became like a Jew to gain the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law( though I myself am not under the law) to gain those under the law.To those free from the law I became like one free from the law( though I am not free from God’s law but under the law of Christ) to gain those free from the law.To the weak I became weak in order to gain the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that by all means I may save some.

But be careful that this liberty of yours does not become a hindrance to the weak.

We do not give anyone an occasion for taking an offense in anything, so that no fault may be found with our ministry.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that although he was rich, he became poor for your sakes, so that you by his poverty could become rich.

the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea and everything that moves through the currents of the seas.

Then the disciples came to him and said,“ Do you know that when the Pharisees heard this saying they were offended?”And he replied,“ Every plant that my heavenly Father did not plant will be uprooted.Leave them!

( 2: 1) The LORD sent a huge fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights.

God blessed them and said to them,“ Be fruitful and multiply! Fill the earth and subdue it! Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that moves on the ground.”

Do not give offense to Jews or Greeks or to the church of God,just as I also try to please everyone in all things. I do not seek my own benefit, but the benefit of many, so that they may be saved.

Listen, my dear brothers and sisters! Did not God choose the poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that he promised to those who love him?

Then the LORD commanded the fish and it disgorged Jonah on dry land.

Stay away from every form of evil.

When Jesus was aware that his disciples were complaining about this, he said to them,“ Does this cause you to be offended?

You made him lower than the angels for a little while. You crowned him with glory and honor.You put all things under his control.” For when he put all things under his control, he left nothing outside of his control. At present we do not yet see all things under his control,
