I tell you that many will come from east and west, and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

When He had come to the other side, to the region of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men met Him as they came out of the tombs. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.

Suddenly they shouted, “What do You have to do with us, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?”

So the disciples questioned Him, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

“But I tell you: Elijah has already come, and they didn’t recognize him. On the contrary, they did whatever they pleased to him. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.”

[However, this kind does not come out except by prayer and fasting.]”

“But, so we won’t offend them, go to the sea, cast in a fishhook, and take the first fish that you catch. When you open its mouth you’ll find a coin. Take it and give it to them for Me and you.”

Woe to the world because of offenses. For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes.

Again, he sent out other slaves, and said, ‘Tell those who are invited: Look, I’ve prepared my dinner; my oxen and fattened cattle have been slaughtered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet.’

I assure you: All these things will come on this generation!

For I tell you, you will never see Me again until you say, ‘He who comes in the name of the Lord is the blessed One’!”

For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and they will deceive many.
