When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in their heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
-
But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.
-
“The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
-
Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”
-
This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous
-
Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. “Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?” they asked.
-
When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.
-
“Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”
-
“Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus.
-
Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
-
What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.”
-
But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them.
-
For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.
-
Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.”
-
He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’
-
For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what they have done.
-
“Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
-
As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, “Don’t tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.”
-
The disciples asked him, “Why then do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?”
-
Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah comes and will restore all things.
-
But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they wished. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.”
-
Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!
-
“Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”
-
I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”
-
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
