“Jesus said to His Disciples: ‘Not everyone who says to me, “Lord, Lord,” will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only the one who does the Will of My Father in Heaven. ‘Everyone who listens to these Words of Mine and acts on Them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. …”
“… They placed them at His Feet, and He cured them. The crowds were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the deformed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind able to see, and they glorified the God of Israel. … He took the seven loaves and the fish, gave thanks, broke the loaves, and gave them to the Disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds. They all ate and were satisfied. They picked up the fragments left over–seven baskets full.”
“Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, ‘I give You praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you have revealed them to the childlike. Yes, Father, such has been Your Gracious Will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him.’ …”
“… The centurion said in reply, ‘Lord, I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof; only say the word and my servant will be healed. … Jesus … said … ‘Amen, I say to you, in no one in Israel have I found such faith. I say to you, many will come from the east and the west, and will recline with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at the banquet in the Kingdom of heaven.'”
“Jesus said … ‘There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay,
perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. … then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with Power and Great Glory. … stand erect and raise your heads because your Redemption is at hand. Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise …. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength
to escape the tribulations … and to stand before the Son of Man.'”
“Jesus said to His Disciples: ‘Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness
and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise …. that day will assault everyone
who lives on the face of the earth. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man.'”
“As Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew,
casting a net into the sea …. He said … ‘Come after Me, and I will make you fishers of men.’ At once they left their nets and followed him. … two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. … were in a boat, with their father …. He called them, and immediately they left their boat and their father and followed Him.”
“… ‘There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will die of fright in anticipation … the powers of the heavens will be shaken. … then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with Power and Great glory. … when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your Redemption is at hand.'”
“Jesus said … ‘They will seize and persecute you … hand you over … because of My Name. … I Myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that … your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute. … they will put some of you to death. You will be hated by all because of My Name, but not a hair on your head will be destroyed. By your perseverance you will secure your lives.'”
“‘… When you hear of wars and insurrections, do not be terrified; for such things must happen first, but it will not immediately be the end.’ Then He said to them, ‘Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be powerful earthquakes, famines, and plagues from place to place; and awesome sights and mighty signs will come from the sky.'”
