Gen. Rev.
Can't find the answer are looking for?
Ask a Question"You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet.
"You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.'
So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,
"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.'
"Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.'
"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'
Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye?
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?'
And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.'
And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it."
And behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, if you will, you can make me clean."
For I too am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. And I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes, and to another, 'Come,' and he comes, and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
Another of the disciples said to him, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."
And Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."
As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.
Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death,
So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven,
but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.
