Matthew 7:19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.Matthew 7:20So then, by their fruit you will recognize them.Matthew 7:21Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven.Matthew 7:22Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’Matthew 7:23Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’Matthew 7:24Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.Matthew 7:25The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because its foundation was on the rock.Matthew 7:26But everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.Matthew 7:27The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great was its collapse!”Matthew 7:28When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astonished at His teaching,Matthew 7:29because He taught as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.Matthew 22:36“Teacher, which commandment is the greatest in the Law?”Matthew 22:37Jesus declared, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’Matthew 22:38This is the first and greatest commandment.Matthew 22:39And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’Matthew 22:40All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”Luke 1:13But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John.Luke 1:67Then his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied:Luke 1:68“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed His people.Luke 1:69He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David,Luke 1:70as He spoke through His holy prophets, those of ages past,Luke 1:71salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us,Luke 1:72to show mercy to our fathers and to remember His holy covenant,Luke 1:73the oath He swore to our father Abraham, to grant usLuke 1:74deliverance from hostile hands, that we may serve Him without fear,Luke 1:75in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our lives.Luke 1:76And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for Him,Luke 1:77to give to His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,Luke 1:78because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the Dawn will visit us from on high,Luke 1:79to shine on those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”Luke 2:25Now there was a man in Jerusalem named Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.Luke 2:26The Holy Spirit had revealed to him that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.Luke 2:27Led by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. And when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for Him what was customary under the Law,Luke 2:28Simeon took Him in his arms and blessed God, saying:Luke 2:29“Sovereign Lord, as You have promised, You now dismiss Your servant in peace.Luke 2:30For my eyes have seen Your salvation,Luke 2:31which You have prepared in the sight of all people,Luke 2:32a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to Your people Israel.”Luke 2:33The Child’s father and mother were amazed at what was spoken about Him.Luke 2:34Then Simeon blessed them and said to His mother Mary: “Behold, this Child is appointed to cause the rise and fall of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against,Luke 2:35so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed—and a sword will pierce your soul as well.”Luke 2:36There was also a prophetess named Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher, who was well along in years. She had been married for seven years,Luke 2:37and then was a widow to the age of eighty-four. She never left the temple, but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying.Luke 7:1When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.Luke 7:2There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die.Luke 7:3When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.Luke 7:4They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,Luke 7:5for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”Luke 7:6So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.Luke 7:7That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.Luke 7:8For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes, and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”Luke 7:9When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”Luke 7:10And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.Acts 10:34Then Peter began to speak: “I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism,Acts 10:35but welcomes those from every nation who fear Him and do what is right.Acts 14:17Yet He has not left Himself without testimony to His goodness: He gives you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.”Acts 17:23For as I walked around and examined your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore what you worship as something unknown, I now proclaim to you.Acts 17:24The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples made by human hands.Acts 17:25Nor is He served by human hands, as if He needed anything, because He Himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.Acts 17:26From one man He made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their lands.
