[:en]Judging Others:
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank n your own eye?”
(vs. 2-3)
Ask, Seek, Knock:
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find’ knock and the door will be opened to you.” (v. 7)
“In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets” (v. 12)
The Narrow and Wide Gates:
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it” (vs. 13-14)
A Tree and Its Fruit:
“A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire” (v. 18-19)
“Not everyone who says to me, “Lord, Lord,” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven” (v. 21)
The Wise and Foolish Builders:
“Everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash” (vs. 24-27)
