Rewards
40 a“Whoever receives you receives me, and bwhoever receives me receives him who sent me. 41 cThe one who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and the one who receives a righteous person because he is a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward. 42And dwhoever gives one of ethese little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.” Matthew 18:5
5 f“Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, John 13:20
20Truly, truly, I say to you, gwhoever receives the one I send receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.” Romans 15:7
7Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God. Philippians 2:29
29So hreceive him in the Lord with all joy, and ihonor such men, 2 John 10
10If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, jdo not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, 3 John 8-10
8Therefore we ought to support people like these, that we may be fellow workers for the truth. 9I have written something to the church, but Diotrephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge our authority. 10So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, talking wicked nonsense against us. And not content with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers, and also stops those who want to and puts them out of the church.
