Whoever eats the loaf or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will be guilty respecting the body and the blood of the Lord.—1 Cor. 11:27. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/4 What point is the apostle Paul here making? An anointed Christian would partake unworthily if he did not maintain a good relationship with Jehovah. (Heb. 6:4-6; 10:26-29) Such a warning helps anointed Christians to remember that they have not yet taken hold of the reward. They need to continue to press on “toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God by means of Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 3:13-16) Under inspiration, Paul appealed to anointed Christians “to walk worthily of the calling with which [they] were called.” How should this be done? Paul goes on to say “with all humility and mildness, with patience, putting up with one another in love, earnestly endeavoring to maintain the oneness of the spirit in the uniting bond of peace.” (Eph. 4:1-3) Jehovah’s spirit promotes humility, not pride.—Col. 3:12. w16.01 4:5, 6

They all became filled with holy spirit.—Acts 2:4. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/3 The year was 33 C.E., and it was the day of Pentecost. In an upper room in Jerusalem, a group of about 120 Christians were gathered together, “persisting in prayer.” (Acts 1:13-15) What was about to happen to them fulfilled a prophecy uttered by the prophet Joel. (Joel 2:28-32; Acts 2:16-21) God’s holy spirit was poured out on that group of Christians who were gathered in the upper room. (Acts 1:8) They started to prophesy, or bear witness, concerning the wonderful things they had seen and heard. To a multitude that soon gathered, the apostle Peter explained the significance of what had happened. Then he told his audience: “Repent, and let each one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the free gift of the holy spirit.” Altogether about 3,000 accepted the invitation that day, were baptized, and received the promised holy spirit.—Acts 2:37, 38, 41. w16.01 3:1-3

@Bible Speaks Headache / migraine, thats by some humans VERY BIG STRESS I read. But I never heard from eyes - blood ;-( very rare I think ! Of course Jesus was PERFECT, so we can imagine, WHAT a real human he was, with all emotions like you and me... we ALL ! - He pleased his father Jehovah in a long prayer bec. that horrible death He knew, what will soon happen and his special "prayer - blood" was of sure a sign of his anxieties ;-(( I NOT believe, such of oil was helping... ONLY the Angel gave him the special power from Jehovah, he so needed ❤

Let your brotherly love continue.—Heb. 13:1. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/2 Why is it vital that we let our brotherly love continue? The simple answer is that Jehovah requires us to show brotherly love to one another. We cannot claim to love God and at the same time refuse to love our brothers. (1 John 4:7, 20, 21) Additionally, we need one another. This is especially true in times of trouble. Paul knew that some of the Hebrew Christians to whom he was writing would soon need to leave their homes and material possessions. Jesus had described how difficult that time would be. (Mark 13:14-18; Luke 21:21-23) So more than ever before, those Christians needed to strengthen their affection for one another. (Rom. 12:9) Soon the destructive winds of the greatest tribulation of all time will be released. (Mark 13:19; Rev. 7:1-3) It is not enough for us just to meet together regularly. Paul reminded the Hebrew Christians that they should use such occasions to incite one another “to love and fine works.”—Heb. 10:24, 25. w16.01 1:6-8

Que su amor fraternal continúe (Heb. 13:1). https://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/5/2 ¿Por qué es tan importante que este amor continúe? En pocas palabras, porque es un mandato de Jehová. No podemos decir que lo amamos a él si no amamos a nuestros hermanos (1 Juan 4:7, 20, 21). Pero hay otra razón, y es que nos necesitamos, sobre todo cuando hay problemas. Pablo sabía que muchos de los cristianos hebreos iban a perder sus casas y sus pertenencias. Jesús ya había dicho que vivirían tiempos muy difíciles (Mar. 13:14-18; Luc. 21:21-23). Era más importante que nunca fortalecer su cariño por los demás (Rom. 12:9). Dentro de muy poco tiempo se desatarán los vientos destructivos de la gran tribulación (Mar. 13:19; Rev. 7:1-3). No basta con ir a las reuniones. Pablo les dijo a los hebreos que aprovecharan esas ocasiones para hacer crecer el amor entre todos y animarse a realizar buenas obras (Heb. 10:24, 25). w16.01 1:6-8

Se maravillaban de las palabras llenas de gracia que procedían de su boca (Luc. 4:22). https://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/5/1 ¿Cómo podemos seguir el ejemplo de Jesús? Hablando con amabilidad y tomando en cuenta los sentimientos de quienes nos escuchan. Al ver el esfuerzo que hacía la gente por escucharlo, Jesús sintió compasión y “comenzó a enseñarles muchas cosas” (Mar. 6:34). Ni siquiera cuando sus enemigos lo insultaron respondió mal (1 Ped. 2:23). Hablar con amabilidad y tacto es especialmente difícil cuando estamos con alguien al que conocemos bien, ya que nos sentimos en la libertad de ser más francos. Puede tratarse de un familiar o de un amigo cercano de la congregación. ¿Pensó Jesús en algún momento que la amistad tan cercana que tenía con sus apóstoles le daba libertad para ser grosero con ellos? Al contrario. Aunque no dejaban de discutir sobre quién de ellos era el mayor, Jesús los corrigió con tacto y usó a un niño para enseñarles una poderosa lección (Mar. 9:33-37). Los ancianos en especial deben seguir su ejemplo y dar consejo con apacibilidad (Gál. 6:1). w15 15/12 3:15, 16

They... [were] amazed at the gracious words coming out of his mouth.—Luke 4:22. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/1 We can imitate Jesus’ gracious speech by being kind, courteous, and considerate of others’ feelings. Seeing the effort a crowd made to hear him speak, Jesus was moved with pity and “started to teach them many things.” (Mark 6:34) Even when he was being insulted, Jesus did not resort to harsh speech. (1 Pet. 2:23) Speaking with mildness and tact can be a challenge when our listener is someone whom we know very well. We might feel at liberty to be very frank. That can be true whether we speak with a family member or a close friend in the congregation. Did Jesus feel that his close relationship with his disciples granted him liberty to speak harshly to them? Not at all! When his closest followers continued to argue over who was greater, Jesus corrected them with kind words and an illustration of a young child. (Mark 9:33-37) Elders can imitate Jesus’ example by giving counsel “in a spirit of mildness.”—Gal. 6:1. w15 12/15 3:15, 16
