The
Lord's Prayer, also known as the
Our Father or
Pater noster is probably the best-known prayer in Christianity.
The context of the prayer in Matthew is as part of a discourse deploring people who pray simply for the purpose of being seen to pray.
Matthew describes Jesus as instructing people to pray after the manner of this prayer.

The
Hail Mary or
Ave Maria (Latin) is a traditional Christian prayer asking for the intercession of
the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus. The Hail Mary is used within Roman Catholicism, and it forms
the basis of the Rosary. The prayer is also used by the Eastern Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox as
well as by Anglicans, and some Protestant denominations.

The
credo (Latin for "I Believe") is a statement of religious belief.
After the formulation of the
Nicene Creed, its initial liturgical use was in baptism.
The text was gradually incorporated into the liturgies, and later accepted by the
Church of Rome as a legitimate part of the service.

The
Parable of the Prodigal Son, also known as the
Lost Son, is one of the best known parables
of Jesus. It appears only in the Gospel of Luke,
in the New Testament of the Bible. By tradition, it is usually read on the third Sunday of Lent.
It is the third and final member of a trilogy, following the
Parable of the Lost Sheep
and the
Parable of the Lost Coin.

The
Gospel of John (literally,
According to John; Greek,
Κατὰ Ἰωάννην,
Kata Iōannēn)
is the fourth gospel in the canon of the
New Testament, traditionally ascribed to John the Evangelist.
Of the four gospels, John presents the highest Christology,
describing him as the
Logos who is the
Arche (a Greek term for "existed from the beginning"
or "the ultimate source of all things"), teaching at
length about his identity as savior, and possibly declaring him to be God.
New Testament, Gospel of John, 1, 1-14, in Indo-European, v. 1
