A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and many people of the city were with her.

And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet is risen up among us; and, God has visited his people.

For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

And all the people that heard him, and the tax collectors, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.

But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.

And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,

And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bore fruit a hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.

And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

But that on the good ground are they, who in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God, and do it.

When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of God most high? I beseech you, torment me not.

Return to your own house, and show what great things God has done unto you. And he went his way, and proclaimed throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done unto him.

And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: your faith has made you whole; go in peace.

And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spoke unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing.

And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get food: for we are here in a desert place.

He said unto them, But whom say you that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

But I tell you a truth, there be some standing here, who shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Teacher, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: not knowing what he said.

And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,

Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but you go and preach the kingdom of God.

And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come near unto you.

Even the very dust of your city, which cleaves on us, we do wipe off against you: nevertheless be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near unto you.

In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hid these things from the wise and prudent, and have revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in your sight.

And he answering said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.

But one thing is needful: and Mary has chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

But if I with the finger of God cast out demons, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.

But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

But woe unto you, Pharisees! for you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over justice and the love of God: these ought you to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:

Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?

Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:

But he that denies me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

But God said unto him, You fool, this night your soul shall be required of you: then whose shall those things be, which you have prepared?

So is he that lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them: how much more are you better than the fowls?

If then God so clothes the grass, which is today in the field, and tomorrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?

But rather seek you the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looks not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in pieces, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

Then said he unto the vinedresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbers it the ground?

And if it bears fruit, well: and if not, then after that you shall cut it down.

And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I compare it?

And again he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God?

Strive to enter in at the narrow gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.

And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.

The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying unto him, Get out, and depart from here: for Herod will kill you.

And when one of them that sat at table with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.

Salt is good: but if the salt has lost its taste, how shall it be restored?

Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents.

And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years have I served you, neither transgressed I at any time your commandment: and yet you never gave me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:

No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

And he said unto them, You are they who justify yourselves before men; but God knows your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presses into it.

And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, who was laid at his gate, full of sores,

But Abraham said, Son, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and you are tormented.

And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,

There was not found one that returned to give glory to God, except this stranger.

And when he was demanded by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God comes not with outward observation:

Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.

Saying, There was in a city a judge, who feared not God, neither regarded man:

And he would not for awhile: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

And shall not God avenge his own elect, who cry day and night unto him, though he bears long with them?

The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank you, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector.

And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Allow little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

And Jesus said unto him, Why call me good? none is good, except one, that is, God.

And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hard it is for those that have riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that has left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,

And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.

And as they heard these things, he proceeded to tell a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.

And he said unto him, Well done, good servant: because you have been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.

And when he came near, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;

He shall come and destroy these tenants, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.

And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, neither do you regard any person, but teach the way of God truly:

And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things which are God's.

Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.

For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her poverty has cast in all the living that she had.

So likewise you, when you see these things come to pass, know that the kingdom of God is near at hand.

For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

Then said they all, Are you then the Son of God? And he said unto them, You say that I am.

And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he is Christ, the chosen of God.

But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Do you not fear God, seeing you are in the same condemnation?

Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a member of the council and he was a good man, and just:
