James 5:13-20

13 Is any one of you in trouble? He should talk to God about it. Is any one of you happy? He should sing songs of praise to God.

14 Is any one of you sick? He should call for the leaders of the church people. They should talk to God about him and put oil on him in the name of the Lord.

15 Because they talk to God, and believe, he will hear them. The sick man will be healed. The Lord will make him well again. If the sick man has done wrong things, the Lord will forgive him.

16 So tell one another the wrong things you have done. And tell God about each other's needs, so that you will be healed. When a good man talks to God, big things can be done.

17 Elijah was a man like us. He asked God not to let it rain. And for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth.

18 Then he talked to God again. And it rained. Plants grew on the earth.

19 My brothers, has one of you left the right way? Has another person brought him back again?

20 Do not forget that the person who has brought a man back from his wrong ways will save that man from death. He will cover up many wrong things and be forgiven.

Mark 9:38-50

38 John said to him, `Master, we saw a man driving bad spirits out of people. He was using your name, but he is not one of us. So we told him to stop because he is not one of us.'

39 Jesus said, `Do not stop him. Anyone who can do a great work in my name will not be quick to say wrong things about me.

40 He that is not against us is on our side.

41 `I tell you the truth. If anyone gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, he will not lose his reward'

42 `These little children believe in me. If anyone makes one of them do wrong, he will be punished. He will have worse trouble than if a big stone were tied to his neck and he were thrown into the deep sea.

43 If your hand makes you do wrong, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life with one hand than to have two hands and go into hell. Hell fire never dies.

44 In hell their worm will not die and the fire will not stop burning.

45 If your foot makes you do wrong, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life with one foot than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. Hell fire never dies.

46 In hell their worm will not die and the fire will not stop burning.

47 If your eye makes you do wrong, take it out. It is better for you to go into God's kingdom with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell.

48 In hell their worm will not die and the fire will not stop burning.

49 Everyone must be tested by fire. Every sacrifice must have salt on it.

50 Salt is good. But if the salt has lost its taste, how can it be made salty again? You must have salt in yourselves and live in peace with one another.'
