Matthew:10:24-42
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The disciple is not above his master ,
nor the servant above his lord .
*
It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master ,
and the servant as his lord .
If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub ,
how much more shall they call them of his household ?
*
Fear them not therefore :
for there is nothing covered ,
that shall not be revealed ;
and hid ,
that shall not be known .
*
What I tell you in darkness ,
that speak ye in light :
and what ye hear in the ear ,
that preach ye upon the housetops .
*
And fear not them which kill the body ,
but are not able to kill the soul :
but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell .
*
Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father .
*
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered .
*
Fear ye not therefore ,
ye are of more value than many sparrows .
*
Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men ,
him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven .
*
But whosoever shall deny me before men ,
him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven .
*
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth :
I came not to send peace ,
but a sword .
*
For I am come to set a man at variance against his father ,
and the daughter against her mother ,
and the daughter in law against her mother in law .
*
And a man '
s foes shall be they of his own household .
*
He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me :
and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me .
*
And he that taketh not his cross ,
and followeth after me ,
is not worthy of me .
*
He that findeth his life shall lose it :
and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it .
*
He that receiveth you receiveth me ,
and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me .
*
He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet '
s reward ;
and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man '
s reward .
*
And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple ,
verily I say unto you ,
he shall in no wise lose his reward .
