But an honorable person acts honestly and stands firm for what is right.

Jesus told them still another parable: "The Kingdom of heaven is like this. A woman takes some yeast and mixes it with a bushel of flour until the whole batch of dough rises."

As Jesus and his disciples went on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha welcomed him in her home.

Martha was upset over all the work she had to do, so she came and said, "Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself ? Tell her to come and help me!"

After she and the people of her house had been baptized, she invited us, "Come and stay in my house if you have decided that I am a true believer in the Lord." And she persuaded us to go.

Share your belongings with your needy fellow Christians, and open your homes to strangers.

As for you, my friends, you were called to be free. But do not let this freedom become an excuse for letting your physical desires control you. Instead, let love make you serve one another.

Remember to welcome strangers in your homes. There were some who did that and welcomed angels without knowing it.

Open your homes to each other without complaining.
