Coming of the lord jesus Christ » The lord going away only to return later
As a man going abroad, having left his house and given authority to his servants, to each one his work, also commanded the porter to watch, so also watch ye; for ye know not when the master of the house is coming, whether at evening, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning;
Let not your heart be troubled. Have faith in God, and have faith in me. In my Fathers house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. For I go away to prepare a place for you; and when I have gone away and prepared a place for you, I will come again, and will take you to myself; that where I am, ye also may be. read more.

Jesus knew that they were desirous of asking him, and said to them, Is it of this that ye are inquiring of one another, that I said, A little while, and ye behold me not, and again a little while, and ye will See me? Truly, truly do I say to you, that ye will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; ye will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy. A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, through joy that a man is born into the world. read more.

Love » The reward for loving the lord
And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on. A certain moneylender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty. When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most? read more.
Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly. And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair. No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet. My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment. Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little. And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.

So ye also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one taketh from you. And in that day ye will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly do I say to you, Whatever ye shall ask the Father, he will give it you in my name. Hitherto ye have asked nothing in my name; ask, and ye will receive, that your joy may be made full. These things I have spoken to you in parables. The time is coming, when I shall no more speak to you in parables, but shall tell you plainly of the Father. In that day ye will ask in my name; and I do not tell you that I will pray the Father for you; for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God.
