إنَّهُ لَوْ عَرَفَ رَبُّ البَيْتِ في أَيِّ سَاعَةٍ يَأْتِي السَّارِق، لَمَا تَرَكَ بَيْتَهُ يُنقَب
إنجيل القدّيس لوقا12/من33حتى40/:”قالَ الربُّ يَسوع: «بِيعُوا مَا تَمْلِكُون، وَتَصَدَّقُوا بِهِ، وٱجْعَلُوا لَكُم أَكْيَاسًا لا تَبْلَى، وَكَنْزًا في السَّماوَاتِ لا يَنفَد، حَيْثُ لا يَقْتَرِبُ سَارِق، ولا يُفْسِدُ سُوس. فَحَيْثُ يَكُونُ كَنْزُكُم، هُنَاكَ يَكُونُ أَيْضًا قَلْبُكُم. لِتَكُنْ أَوْسَاطُكُم مَشْدُودَة، وَسُرْجُكُم مُوقَدَة. وَكُونُوا مِثْلَ أُنَاسٍ يَنْتَظِرُونَ سَيِّدَهُم مَتَى يَعُودُ مِنَ العُرْس، حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَ وَقَرَع، فَتَحُوا لَهُ حَالاً. طُوبَى لأُولئِكَ العَبِيدِ الَّذينَ، مَتَى جَاءَ سَيِّدُهُم، يَجِدُهُم مُتَيَقِّظِين. أَلحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُم: إِنَّهُ يَشُدُّ وَسْطَهُ، وَيُجْلِسُهُم لِلطَّعَام، وَيَدُورُ يَخْدُمُهُم. وَإِنْ جَاءَ في الهَجْعَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ أَوِ الثَّالِثَة، وَوَجَدَهُم هكذَا، فَطُوبَى لَهُم! وٱعْلَمُوا هذَا: إِنَّهُ لَوْ عَرَفَ رَبُّ البَيْتِ في أَيِّ سَاعَةٍ يَأْتِي السَّارِق، لَمَا تَرَكَ بَيْتَهُ يُنقَب.فَكُونُوا أَنْتُم أَيْضًا مُسْتَعِدِّين، لأَنَّ ٱبْنَ الإِنْسَانِ يَجِيءُ في سَاعَةٍ لا تَخَالُونَها!».”

 

أيهَا الجَاهِل، إِنَّ مَا تَزْرَعُهُ أَنْت، لا يَحْيَا إِلاَّ إِذَا مَات
رسالة القدّيس بولس الأولى إلى أهل قورنتس15/من35aحتى44/يا إخوَتِي، رُبَّ قَائِلٍ يَقُول: كَيْفَ يَقُومُ الأَمْوَات، وَبِأَيِّ جَسَدٍ يَعُودُون؟ أَيُّهَا الجَاهِل، إِنَّ مَا تَزْرَعُهُ أَنْت، لا يَحْيَا إِلاَّ إِذَا مَات. وَإِنَّ مَا تَزْرَعُهُ هُوَ غَيْرُ الجِسْمِ الَّذي سَيَكُون، بَلْ هُوَ مُجَرَّدُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ قَمْحٍ أَوْ مِنْ نَوْعٍ آخَر. لكِنَّ اللهَ يُعْطِيهَا جِسْمًا، كَمَا يَشَاء، يُعْطِي كُلَّ حَبَّةٍ مِنَ البُذُورِ جِسْمًا خَاصًّا بِهَا. وَلَيْسَتِ الأَجْسَامُ كُلُّهَا مِنْ نَوْعٍ وَاحِد، بَلْ لِلإِنْسَانِ جِسْم، وَلِلحَيَوَانِ جِسْمٌ آخَر، وَلِلطَّيْرِ جِسْمٌ آخَر، ولِلسَّمَكِ جِسْمٌ آخَر. وَهُنَاكَ أَجْسَامٌ سَمَاوِيَّةٌ وأَجْسَامٌ أَرْضِيَّة، لكِنَّ مَجْدَ السَّمَاوِيَّةِ نَوْع، ومَجْدَ الأَرْضِيَّةِ نَوْعٌ آخَر. مَجْدُ الشَّمْسِ نَوْع، ومَجْدُ القَمَرِ نَوْعٌ آخَر، ومَجْدُ النُّجُومِ نَوْعٌ آخَر، لأَنَّ كُلَّ نَجْمٍ يَخْتَلِفُ بِالمَجْدِ عَنْ نَجْمٍ آخَر. كَذَلِكَ تَكُونُ قِيَامَةُ الأَمْوَات: يُزْرَعُ الجَسَدُ في الفَسَاد، فَيَقُومُ في غَيْرِ الفَسَاد. يُزْرَعُ في الهَوَان، فَيَقُومُ في المَجْد. يُزْرَعُ في الضُّعْف، فيَقُومُ في القُوَّة. يُزْرَعُ جَسَدًا أَرْضِيًّا، فَيَقُومُ جَسَدًا رُوحَانِيًّا. إنْ كَانَ يُوجَدُ جَسَدٌ أَرْضِيّ، يُوجَدُ أَيْضًا جَسَدٌ رُوحَانِيّ.”

If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 12/33-40/:”Sell your possessions, and give alms. Make purses for yourselves that do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. ‘Be dressed for action and have your lamps lit; be like those who are waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that they may open the door for him as soon as he comes and knocks. Blessed are those slaves whom the master finds alert when he comes; truly I tell you, he will fasten his belt and have them sit down to eat, and he will come and serve them. If he comes during the middle of the night, or near dawn, and finds them so, blessed are those slaves. ‘But know this: if the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an unexpected hour.’

 

You Fool! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies
First Letter to the Corinthians 15,35-44a/:”Someone will ask, ‘How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?’Fool! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. And as for what you sow, you do not sow the body that is to be, but a bare seed, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain. But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body. Not all flesh is alike, but there is one flesh for human beings, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish. There are both heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is one thing, and that of the earthly is another. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; indeed, star differs from star in glory. So it is with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable. It is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual body.”
