'God' in the Bible

The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom of God,

and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News."

saying, "Ha! What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God!"

"Why does this man speak blasphemies like that? Who can forgive sins but God alone?"

He arose, and immediately took up the mat, and went out in front of them all; so that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this!"

How he entered into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and ate the show bread, which is not lawful to eat except for the priests, and gave also to those who were with him?"

The unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, "You are the Son of God!"

For whoever does the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother."

He said to them, "To you is given the mystery of the Kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,

He said, "The Kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,

He said, "How will we liken the Kingdom of God? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?

and crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, don't torment me."

"For you set aside the commandment of God, and hold tightly to the tradition of men -- the washing of pitchers and cups, and you do many other such things."

He said to them, "Full well do you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition.

But you say, 'If a man tells his father or his mother, "Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban, that is to say, given to God;"'

making void the word of God by your tradition, which you have handed down. You do many things like this."

But he, turning around, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men."

He said to them, "Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see the Kingdom of God come with power."

If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire,

But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.

What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."

But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don't forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except one -- God.

Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!"

The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, "Children, how hard is it for those who trust in riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!

It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God."

Jesus, looking at them, said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God."

Jesus answered them, "Have faith in God.

When they had come, they asked him, "Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don't defer to anyone; for you aren't partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

Jesus answered them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." They marveled greatly at him.

Jesus answered them, "Isn't this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God?

But about the dead, that they are raised; haven't you read in the book of Moses, about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'?

He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken."

Jesus answered, "The greatest is, 'Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one:

you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment.

When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the Kingdom of God." No one dared ask him any question after that.

For in those days there will be oppression, such as there has not been the like from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be.

Most certainly I tell you, I will no more drink of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it anew in the Kingdom of God."

At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is, being interpreted, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!"

Joseph of Arimathaea, a prominent council member who also himself was looking for the Kingdom of God, came. He boldly went in to Pilate, and asked for Jesus' body.

So then the Lord, after he had spoken to them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
