Bible verses quoted in the video
Luke 2:22 – 38
22 When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord 23 (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, ‘Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord’,) 24 and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: ‘a pair of doves or two young pigeons’.
25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him. 26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord’s Messiah. 27 Moved by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required, 28 Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying:
29 ‘Sovereign Lord, as you have promised,
you may now dismiss your servant in peace.
30 For my eyes have seen your salvation,
31 which you have prepared in the sight of all nations:
32 a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
and the glory of your people Israel.’
33 The child’s father and mother marvelled at what was said about him. 34 Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother: ‘This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against, 35 so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too.’
36 There was also a prophet, Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, 37 and then was a widow until she was eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshipped night and day, fasting and praying. 38 Coming up to them at that very moment, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem.
1 John 1:9
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
Romans 10:9 – 10
9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
Isaiah 53:5
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.

It is Jesus who began new history of humanity
The verses of the Holy Bible quoted in the video: Luke 10:25-37 25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. ‘Teacher,’ he asked, ‘what must I do to inherit eternal life?’ 26 ‘What is written in the Law?’ he replied. ‘How do you read it?’ 27 He answered, ‘ “Love the Lord your […]
Jesus Christ, our Powerful Savior and King
First of all, let us start with Hebrews 12:25 that tells us a warning. 25 See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from […]
Misery not due to sin but to display the work of God who sent Jesus
John 9:1-12 Most cultures including Buddhism teach ‘retribution’ as the cause of the misery. But in Jesus, the misery can be transformed to the glory to God by doing the work of God who sent Jesus. Jesus is the Light of the World, who makes this possible. Your misery may be given by God to […]
a self-righteous religious man who didn’t ask God’s forgiveness
Verses in the Holy Bible particularly interesting to me would be interesting to Buddhists because I read the Holy Bible as an ex-Buddhist. So, if I share what interested me, it will help Buddhists. One of them is ‘The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector’. The reason I didn’t understand the parable well […]
God’s calling to be a blessing
I was called to be a Christian after I had been a Buddhist. It was God’s calling. God called Abram in Genesis 12. I shared about God’s calling and ‘being a blessing’ (Genesis 12:2). I also shared about ‘without God’ and ‘being a curse’. The thief (the devil) comes only to steal and kill and […]
