instead of presuming to say to yourselves, 'We have a father in Abraham.' I tell you, God can raise up children for Abraham from these stones!

Let what you say be simply 'yes' or 'no'; whatever exceeds that springs from evil.

Do not pray by idle rote like pagans, for they suppose they will be heard the more they say;

How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take out the splinter from your eye,' when there lies the plank in your own eye?

It is not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord!', who will get into the Realm of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father in heaven.

Many will say to me at that Day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name? did we not cast out daemons in your name? did we not perform many miracles in your name?'

Then Jesus told him, "See, you are not to say a word to anybody; away and show yourself to the priest and offer the gift prescribed by Moses, to notify men."

The captain answered, "Sir, I am not fit to have you under my roof; only say the word, and my servant will be cured.

Which is the easier thing, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'?

Now, when they bring you up for trial, do not trouble yourselves about how to speak or what to say; what you are to say will come to you at the moment,

For John has come neither eating nor drinking, and men say, 'He has a devil';

the Son of man has come eating and drinking, and men say, 'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of taxgatherers and sinners!' Nevertheless, Wisdom is vindicated by all that she does."

Whoever says a word against the Son of man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the holy Spirit will never be forgiven, neither in this world nor in the world to come.

Then it says, 'I will go back to the house I left,' and when it comes it finds the house vacant, clean, and all in order.

But you say, whoever tells his father or mother, 'This money might have been at your service but it is dedicated to God,'

Then the disciples came up and said to him, "Do you know that the Pharisees have taken offence at what they hear you say?"

Now when Jesus came to the district of Caesarea Philippi he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of man is?"

They told him, "Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."

He said to them, "And who do you say I am?"

The disciples inquired of him, "Then why do the scribes say that Elijah has to come first?"

He said to them, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you truly, if you had faith the size of a grain of mustard-seed, you could say to this hill, 'Move from here to there,' and remove it would; nothing would be impossible for you."

Jesus said to him, "Seven times? I say, seventy times seven!

If anyone says anything to you, you will say that the Lord needs them; then he will at once let them go."

Jesus answered, "I tell you truly, if you have faith, if you have no doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree but even if you say to this hill, 'Take and throw yourself into the sea,' it will be done.

Where did the baptism of John come from? From heaven or from men?" Now they argued to themselves, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say to us, 'Then why did you not believe him?'

And if we say, 'From men,' we are afraid of the crowd, for they all hold that John was a prophet."

Woe to you, blind guides that you are! you say, 'Swear by the sanctuary, and it means nothing; but swear by the gold of the sanctuary, and the oath is binding.'

You say again, 'Swear by the altar, and it means nothing; but swear by the gift upon it, and the oath is binding.'

and you say 'If we had been living in the days of our fathers, we would not have joined them in shedding the blood of the prophets.'

For I tell you, you will never see me again till you say, Blessed be he who comes in the Lord's name."

But if the bad servant says to himself, 'My lord and master is long of coming,'

Then shall the King say to those on his right, 'Come, you whom my Father has blessed, come into your inheritance in the realm prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

Then he will say to those on the left, 'Begone from me, you accursed ones, to the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels!

He said, "Go into the city to so-and-so; tell him that the Teacher says, 'My time is near, I will celebrate the passover at your house with my disciples.' "

Only, how could the scriptures be fulfilled then ??the scriptures that say this must be so?"

and told them to say that "his disciples came at night and stole him when we were asleep."
