highlighted Matthew 7:1-29 NASB

"Or if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake, will he?"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, ahow much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!"In everything, atherefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for bthis is the Law and the Prophets."aEnter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it."For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it."Beware of the afalse prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are bravenous wolves."You will aknow them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they?"So aevery good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit."A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit."aEvery tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."aDo not judge so that you will not be judged."So then, you will know them aby their fruits."aNot everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter."aMany will say to Me on bthat day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?'"And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; aDEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.'"Therefore aeveryone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock."And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock."Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand."The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell--and great was its fall."aWhen Jesus had finished these words, bthe crowds were amazed at His teaching;for He was teaching them as one having authority, and not as their scribes."For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and aby your standard of measure, it will be measured to you."Why do you alook at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?"aOr how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye?"You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye."aDo not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces."aAsk, and bit will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you."For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened."Or what man is there among you who, when his son asks for a loaf, will give him a stone?

[For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.']"aFor if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you."But aif you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions."aPray, then, in this way: 'Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

highlighted Matthew 6:1-8 NASB

"Blessed are those who have been apersecuted for the sake of righteousness, for btheirs is the kingdom of heaven."Blessed are you when people ainsult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me."Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for ain the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you."You are the salt of the earth; but aif the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men."You are athe light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;anor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house."Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may asee your good works, and bglorify your Father who is in heaven."Do not think that I came to abolish the aLaw or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill."For truly I say to you, auntil heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished."Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least ain the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."For I say to you that unless your arighteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven."aYou have heard that the ancients were told, 'bYOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER' and 'Whoever commits murder shall be liable to cthe court.'"But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before athe court; and whoever says to his brother, 'You good-for-nothing,' shall be guilty before bthe supreme court; and whoever says, 'You fool,' shall be guilty enough to go into the cfiery hell."Therefore if you are apresenting your offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,leave your offering there before the altar and go; first be areconciled to your brother, and then come and present your offering."aMake friends quickly with your opponent at law while you are with him on the way, so that your opponent may not hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison."Truly I say to you, ayou will not come out of there until you have paid up the last cent."aYou have heard that it was said, 'bYOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY';but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman awith lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart."aIf your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into bhell."aIf your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to go into bhell."It was said, 'aWHOEVER SENDS HIS WIFE AWAY, LET HIM GIVE HER A CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE';abut I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except for the reason of unchastity, makes her commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery."Again, ayou have heard that the ancients were told, 'bYOU SHALL NOT MAKE FALSE VOWS, BUT SHALL FULFILL YOUR VOWS TO THE Lord.'"But I say to you, amake no oath at all, either by heaven, for it is bthe throne of God,or by the earth, for it is the afootstool of His feet, or by Jerusalem, for it is bTHE CITY OF THE GREAT KING."Nor shall you make an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black."But let your statement be, 'Yes, yes' or 'No, no'; anything beyond these is of aevil."aYou have heard that it was said, 'bAN EYE FOR AN EYE, AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH.'"But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but awhoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also."aBlessed are the poor in spirit, for btheirs is the kingdom of heaven."If anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, let him have your coat also."Whoever forces you to go one mile, go with him two."aGive to him who asks of you, and do not turn away from him who wants to borrow from you."aYou have heard that it was said, 'bYOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR cand hate your enemy.'"But I say to you, alove your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,so that you may be asons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous."For aif you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?"If you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?"Therefore ayou are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect."Blessed are athose who mourn, for they shall be comforted."Blessed are athe gentle, for they shall inherit the earth."Blessed are athose who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied."Blessed are athe merciful, for they shall receive mercy."Blessed are athe pure in heart, for bthey shall see God."Blessed are the peacemakers, for athey shall be called sons of God.
