Mary was the mother of Jesus, who is called the Christ.
bwe@Matthew:1:17 @ There were fourteen families from Abraham to David. There were fourteen families from David to the time the people were taken to Babylon. And there were fourteen families after that until Christ was born.
bwe@Matthew:1:24 @ Joseph woke up and did what the angel of the Lord told him to do. He took Mary to be his wife.
bwe@Matthew:2:2 @ They asked, Where is the child who has been born to be King of the Jews? We saw his star rising and we have come to worship him.
bwe@Matthew:2:4 @ He called all the chief priests and the scribes of the Jews for a meeting. He asked them, Where is the Christ to be born?
bwe@Matthew:2:8 @ He sent them to Bethlehem. He said, Go and ask everywhere until you find the child. When you have found him, come and tell me, so that I myself may go and worship him.
bwe@Matthew:2:9 @ After they heard what the king said, they went away. And the star, which they had seen rising, went in front of them. It stopped above the place where the child was.
bwe@Matthew:2:11 @ They went into the house, and there they saw the child and Mary his mother. They kneeled down and worshipped him. Then they opened their bags and gave him gifts. These gifts were gold, and frankincense and myrrh.
bwe@Matthew:2:13 @ After the wise men had gone, Joseph had a dream. An angel of the Lord came to him and said, Get up. Take the child and his mother, and go quickly to the country of Egypt. Stay there till I tell you, because Herod will try to find the child and kill him.
bwe@Matthew:2:14 @ Joseph woke up. He took the child and his mother in the night and went to Egypt.
bwe@Matthew:2:16 @ Herod saw that the wise men had fooled him. He was very angry. He sent men to kill all the baby boys in the town of Bethlehem and around it. They killed all the boys who were two years old or less. Herod remembered what the wise men had told him about the time they first saw the star.
bwe@Matthew:2:20 @ The angel said, Get up. Take the child and his mother and go to the country of Israel. The men who wanted to kill the child are dead.
bwe@Matthew:2:21 @ Joseph woke up. He took the child and his mother and went to the country of Israel.
bwe@Matthew:2:23 @ He went and made his home in the town of Nazareth. The prophets of God long ago had said, He shall be called a man from Nazareth. What they said came true.
bwe@Matthew:3:1 @ After some years had passed, John the Baptizer came and told Gods word in the desert of Judea.
bwe@Matthew:3:2 @ He said, Stop doing wrong things and turn back to God! The kingdom of heaven is almost here.
bwe@Matthew:3:4 @ John wore clothes made of camels hair and a leather belt. He ate locusts and wild honey.
bwe@Matthew:3:5 @ People went to him from Jerusalem, from all of Judea, and from all the country near the Jordan River.
bwe@Matthew:3:7 @ Many of the Pharisee group and the Sadducee group came to him to be baptised. But when he saw them, he said to them, You family of snakes! Who told you to run away from Gods anger that is coming?
bwe@Matthew:3:10 @ The axe is ready to cut down the trees. Every tree that does not have good fruit is cut down and thrown into a fire.
bwe@Matthew:3:11 @ I baptise you with water when you stop your wrong ways. But another person is coming after me. He is greater than I am. I am not good enough to take off his shoes. He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
bwe@Matthew:3:12 @ He has a cleaning fan in his hand and will fan his grain very clean. He will put the grain into his storehouse. But he will burn the chaff in the fire that never dies.
bwe@Matthew:4:2 @ Jesus did not eat anything for forty days and forty nights. Then he was very hungry.
bwe@Matthew:4:3 @ The one who tries to make people do wrong came and said to him, If you are Gods Son, tell these stones to be changed into bread.
bwe@Matthew:4:6 @ The devil said to him, If you are Gods Son, jump down. The holy writings say, "God will tell his angels to take care of you. They will hold you up in their hands so that you will not knock your foot on a stone."
bwe@Matthew:4:8 @ The devil took Jesus to a very high hill. He showed him all the countries of the world and how great they were.
bwe@Matthew:4:9 @ He said to Jesus, I will give you all these if you kneel down and worship me.
bwe@Matthew:4:10 @ But Jesus answered him, Get away, Satan. The holy writings say, "You must worship the Lord your God. and he is the only one you are to worship."
bwe@Matthew:4:11 @ Then the devil left Jesus. Angels came and took care of him.
bwe@Matthew:4:13 @ He left the town of Nazareth and went to live in the town of Capernaum. It is by the sea (of Galilee) in the district of Zebulun and Naphtali.
bwe@Matthew:4:15 @ He talked about, The country of Zebulun and the country of Naphtali, the road by the sea, the land on the other side of the Jordan River, Galilee where the people are not Jews.
bwe@Matthew:4:16 @ And he said, The people who lived in darkness have seen a great Light. Light has come to those who lived in a land covered by the dark shadow of death.
bwe@Matthew:4:17 @ From then on, Jesus began to tell Gods word to the people. He said, Stop your wrong ways and turn back to God! The kingdom of heaven is here!
bwe@Matthew:4:18 @ Jesus was walking by the sea of Galilee. There he saw two brothers, Simon who later was named Peter, and his brother Andrew. They were throwing a fishing net into the water. Their work was to catch fish.
bwe@Matthew:4:20 @ Right away they left their nets and went with him.
bwe@Matthew:4:21 @ Jesus went on from there and saw two other brothers, James and John. Their fathers name was Zebedee. They were in the boat with their father mending their nets.
bwe@Matthew:4:22 @ Jesus called them. Right away they left the boat and their father and went with him.
bwe@Matthew:4:23 @ Jesus went all around through Galilee. He taught people in their meeting houses and told them the good news about the kingdom of heaven. He healed all the sick and weak people.
bwe@Matthew:4:24 @ The people in all the country of Syria heard about him. They brought all who were sick in any way, or had bad spirits in them, and those who could not walk or use their hands. Jesus healed them.
bwe@Matthew:4:25 @ Many people went with him. They came from Galilee, the Ten Towns, Jerusalem, Judea, and from the other side of the Jordan river.
bwe@Matthew:5:1 @ When Jesus saw the many people, he went up on a hill. He sat down and his disciples came to him.
bwe@Matthew:5:5 @ God makes happy those who quietly trust him and do not try to get their own way. The world will belong to them.
bwe@Matthew:5:6 @ God makes happy those who are hungry and thirsty for what is right and good. They will be filled.
bwe@Matthew:5:11 @ God makes you happy when people say wrong things about you, when they trouble you, and when they say all kinds of lies about you. God makes you happy when it is for my sake.
bwe@Matthew:5:12 @ Be happy and glad because God will be good to you in heaven. In the same way people troubled the prophets before your time.
bwe@Matthew:5:15 @ So also with a lamp. People do not light a lamp and put it under a basket. But they put it on the place for a lamp. Then all the people in the house can see its light.
bwe@Matthew:5:16 @ So, let your light shine to all people. Then they will see the good things you do. And they will praise your Father in heaven.
bwe@Matthew:5:17 @ Do not think that I have come to take away the law and the writings of the prophets. No, I have not come to take them away. But I have come to do what they say must be done.
bwe@Matthew:5:18 @ I tell you the truth. Until the sky and the earth are taken away, not one small part of the law will be taken away, until everything has been done.
bwe@Matthew:5:19 @ So anyone who does not obey one of the smallest laws, and teaches other people not to obey it, will have the smallest part in the kingdom of heaven. But any one who obeys and teaches the law, will have a big part in the kingdom of heaven.
bwe@Matthew:5:20 @ I tell you, you must do much better than the scribes and Pharisees. If you do not, then you will never go into the kingdom of heaven.
bwe@Matthew:5:24 @ If so, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First, go to your brother and make things right with him. Then come and give your gift to God.
bwe@Matthew:5:25 @ If someone wants to take you to court, make an agreement with him quickly on the way. If you do not, he will take you to the judge. The judge will give you to the guard, and the guard will put you in prison.
bwe@Matthew:5:27 @ You have heard that the law says, "Do not commit adultery <FI>have another man or woman who is not your husband or wife<Fi>."
bwe@Matthew:5:28 @ But I tell you that if a man looks at a woman and he wants her, then he has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
bwe@Matthew:5:29 @ If your right eye makes you do wrong, take it out and throw it away. It is better to lose a part of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
bwe@Matthew:5:30 @ If your right hand makes you do wrong, cut it off and throw it away. It is better to lose a part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell fire.
bwe@Matthew:5:32 @ But I tell you, no man may send away his wife unless she has committed adultery. If he does send her away, he is making her commit adultery. And if a man marries a woman who has been sent away from her husband, he commits adultery.
bwe@Matthew:5:33 @ Also you have heard this said to men long ago, "You must not make a promise in Gods name and break it." And, "You must do for the Lord what you said you would do."
bwe@Matthew:5:38 @ You have heard that the law says, "Take an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth."
bwe@Matthew:5:43 @ You have heard that the law says, "Love your neighbour and hate your enemy."
bwe@Matthew:5:45 @ In that way you will be sons of your Father in heaven. He makes his sun shine on both wrong and good people. He lets the rain fall on people who do right and on people who do wrong.
bwe@Matthew:6:2 @ So when you give money to poor people, do not send men in front of you to blow trumpets or horns. Some people do this in the meeting houses and on the streets so that people will praise them. They are not true to themselves. I tell you the truth. They have their pay already.
bwe@Matthew:6:3 @ But when you give money to poor people, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.
bwe@Matthew:6:4 @ In this way, what you give to the poor will be secret. Your Father sees secret things and he will reward you.
bwe@Matthew:6:5 @ When you talk to God, do not be like people who are not true to themselves. They like to stand and talk to God in the meeting houses and at the street corners, so that people will see them. I tell you the truth. They have their reward already.
bwe@Matthew:6:6 @ But when you talk to God, go into your room and shut the door. Then talk to your Father in secret. Your Father sees secret things and he will reward you.
bwe@Matthew:6:7 @ And when you talk to God, do not say words that mean nothing, over and over again. People who do not believe in God do that. They think their god will hear them because they say many words.
bwe@Matthew:6:13 @ "Do not test us but help us, so that no one will make us do wrong. Deliver us from the evil one. The kingdom and power and praise belong to you for ever. Amen!"
bwe@Matthew:6:17 @ But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face as you do at other times.
bwe@Matthew:6:18 @ Then people will not see that you are fasting. But your Father sees secret things, and he will reward you.
bwe@Matthew:6:19 @ Do not keep many things for yourself on earth. Insects and rust will spoil them. People will get in and steal them.
bwe@Matthew:6:20 @ But keep things for yourself in heaven. Insects and rust will not spoil them there. People will not get in and steal them.
bwe@Matthew:6:24 @ No man can work for two masters. He will hate one and love the other. Or he will obey one and despise the other. You cannot work for both God and money.
bwe@Matthew:6:25 @ So, I tell you this. Do not be troubled about what you will eat or drink to keep alive. Do not be troubled about what you will wear on your body. Life itself is worth more than food, and the body is worth more than clothes.
bwe@Matthew:6:28 @ And why are you troubled about clothes? See how the flowers grow in the fields. They do not work or make cloth.
bwe@Matthew:6:30 @ God dresses the grass in the fields so it looks nice. It is in the field one day and the next day it is put on the fire. If God dresses the grass like that, he cares much more that you have clothes to wear. You do not believe in God very much!
bwe@Matthew:6:31 @ So then, do not keep asking, "What shall we eat?" "What shall we drink?" and "What shall we wear?"
bwe@Matthew:6:33 @ Work first for Gods kingdom and what he calls good. Then you will have all these things also.
bwe@Matthew:7:4 @ Why do you say to your brother, "Let me take the dust out of your eye"? And all the time you have that stick in your own eye!
bwe@Matthew:7:6 @ Do not give what is holy to dogs. Do not throw your fine stones to pigs. They will walk all over them, and then turn and hurt you.
bwe@Matthew:7:7 @ Ask, and you will get what you ask for. Look, and you will find what you look for. Knock, and the door will be opened for you.
bwe@Matthew:7:8 @ Everyone who asks will get. The one who looks will find. And the one who knocks will have the door opened for him.
bwe@Matthew:7:11 @ You are wrong, and yet you know how to give good things to your children. Much more, your Father in heaven will give good things to those who ask him.
bwe@Matthew:7:12 @ Do to other people what you want them to do to you. That is what the law and the writings of the prophets say.
bwe@Matthew:7:13 @ Go in by the small gate. The gate is big and the road is wide that goes to death. Many people go that way.
bwe@Matthew:7:14 @ The gate is small and the road is not wide that goes to life. Not many people find it.
bwe@Matthew:7:18 @ A good tree cannot have bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot have good fruit.
bwe@Matthew:7:19 @ Every tree that does not have good fruit is cut down and thrown into a fire.
bwe@Matthew:7:24 @ Everyone who hears what I say and obeys me will be like a man who has good sense. He built his house on a rock.
bwe@Matthew:7:25 @ It rained hard. The water in the rivers came up high. The winds were strong and beat on the house. But it did not fall down. It was built on a rock.
bwe@Matthew:7:26 @ But everyone who hears what I say and does not obey me, will be like a man who has no sense. He built his house on the sand.
bwe@Matthew:7:27 @ It rained hard. The water in the rivers came up high. The winds were strong and beat on the house. It fell down with a loud noise!
bwe@Matthew:8:2 @ A man who had leprosy <FI>a bad skin disease<Fi> came and kneeled in front of Jesus and worshipped him. He said to Jesus, Sir, I know you can heal me if you want to.
bwe@Matthew:8:3 @ Jesus put out his hand and touched him. He said, I want to. Be healed. Right away his leprosy was healed.
bwe@Matthew:8:4 @ Jesus said to him, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the sacrifice you must give when you are healed. Give it, to prove to people you are healed.
bwe@Matthew:8:6 @ He said, Sir, one of my servants is in bed at my house. He cannot move and has much pain.
bwe@Matthew:8:7 @ Jesus said, I will come and heal him.
bwe@Matthew:8:8 @ The officer said, Sir, I am not good enough to have you come into my house. Just say the word and my servant will be healed.
bwe@Matthew:8:9 @ I myself am a man who takes orders, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I say to one, "Go," and he goes. I say to another one, "Come," and he comes. I say to my servant, "Do this," and he does it.
bwe@Matthew:8:11 @ I tell you, many people will come from the east and from the west. They will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
bwe@Matthew:8:12 @ But those who were born in the kingdom will be put into the darkness outside. There they will cry and make noises with their teeth.
bwe@Matthew:8:15 @ Jesus took hold of her hand and the fever left her. She got up and began to do things for Jesus.
bwe@Matthew:8:16 @ That evening, many people who had bad spirits were brought to Jesus. He spoke to the bad spirits and drove them out. And he healed all the people who were sick.
bwe@Matthew:8:19 @ A scribe came and said to him, Teacher, I will go anywhere you go.
bwe@Matthew:8:21 @ Another man who was a follower of Jesus, said to Jesus, Lord, let me go first and bury my father.
bwe@Matthew:8:23 @ Jesus got in the boat and his disciples got in with him.
bwe@Matthew:8:25 @ The disciples came to Jesus and woke him. Lord, save us! they shouted. We will die!
bwe@Matthew:8:26 @ Jesus said to them, Why do you fear? You do not believe in God very much! Then Jesus got up. He said to the winds and the sea, Stop! Then all was quiet.
bwe@Matthew:8:27 @ The disciples were surprised. They said What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey him.
bwe@Matthew:8:28 @ Jesus came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people. There were graves in that place. Two men came from among the graves to meet him. They had bad spirits in them. They were so bad and strong that people feared to pass that way.
bwe@Matthew:8:32 @ Jesus said, Go! The spirits came out of the men and went into the pigs. All the pigs ran fast down the steep hill into the sea. They died in the water.
bwe@Matthew:8:33 @ The men who cared for the pigs ran to the town. They told everything and what had happened to the men who had the bad spirits.
bwe@Matthew:9:1 @ Jesus got in the boat and crossed the sea. He came to his own town.
bwe@Matthew:9:5 @ Which is easier, to say, "The wrong things you have done are forgiven," or to say, "Get up and walk"?
bwe@Matthew:9:6 @ I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive wrong things people have done. So he said to the sick man, Get up. Make up your bed and go home.
bwe@Matthew:9:7 @ The man got up and went home.
bwe@Matthew:9:8 @ Many people saw this and were much surprised. They praised God who had given such power to men.
bwe@Matthew:9:9 @ Jesus went on from there. He saw a man named Matthew. He was sitting at the place where people came to pay taxes. Jesus said to him, Come with me. Matthew stood up and went with him.
bwe@Matthew:9:10 @ Jesus was eating in a house. Many tax collectors and bad people came in. They sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples.
bwe@Matthew:9:11 @ The Pharisees saw this. They said to his disciples, Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and bad people?
bwe@Matthew:9:13 @ Go and learn what this means: "I want you to be kind. I do not want a sacrifice." I did not come to call good people. I came to call bad people to stop doing wrong things.
bwe@Matthew:9:14 @ Then Johns disciples came to Jesus. They said, We and the Pharisees fast. Why do your disciples not do the same?
bwe@Matthew:9:17 @ People do not put new wine into old wine skins. If they do, the old skins break. The wine is lost and the skins are spoiled. New wine is put into new skins. And so they are both saved.
bwe@Matthew:9:18 @ While Jesus was telling them these things, a ruler came to him. He bowed down in front of Jesus to worship him and said, My daughter has just died. But if you will come and put your hand on her, she will live.
bwe@Matthew:9:19 @ Jesus got up and went with the ruler. His disciples went too.
bwe@Matthew:9:20 @ A woman had a sickness for twelve years. She was bleeding all the time. She came behind Jesus and touched his clothes.
bwe@Matthew:9:22 @ Jesus turned around. He saw her and said, Daughter, be glad. You were healed because you believed. And right away the woman was healed.
bwe@Matthew:9:23 @ When Jesus came to the rulers house, he saw the music players and people making a noise.
bwe@Matthew:9:25 @ The people were told to go outside. When they were out, he went in and took the girls hand. The girl got up.
bwe@Matthew:9:31 @ But they went away and told everybody in that part of the country about him.
bwe@Matthew:9:35 @ Jesus went around to all the cities and towns. He taught people in their meeting houses and told them the good news of the kingdom of heaven. He healed all the sick and weak people.
bwe@Matthew:9:36 @ He saw the many people and was sorry for them. They were troubled and they could not help themselves. They were like sheep with no one to care for them.
bwe@Matthew:9:38 @ Talk to the Lord of this harvest, and ask him to send out people to his harvest.
bwe@Matthew:10:2 @ The names of the twelve apostles are: Simon, whose other name was Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, James, the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose other name was Thaddaeus, Simon, the freedom fighter, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him.
bwe@Matthew:10:10 @ Do not take a bag with you, and do not take two shirts, shoes, or a walking stick. The one who does the work should be given his food.
bwe@Matthew:10:15 @ I tell you the truth. On the day when people are judged, the people from that city will be punished harder than the people from the country of Sodom and Gomorrah.
bwe@Matthew:10:16 @ I am sending you out amongst people. You will be like sheep amongst bad animals like wolves. So be wise like snakes, and harmless like doves.
bwe@Matthew:10:18 @ They will bring you to rulers and kings for my sake. Then you will talk about me to them and to those who are not Jews.
bwe@Matthew:10:21 @ A brother will take his brother to be killed. A father will take his child. The children will talk against their father and mother, and have them killed.
bwe@Matthew:10:24 @ The one who learns is not better than his teacher. And the servant is not better than his master.
bwe@Matthew:10:25 @ The one who learns should want to be like his teacher. And the servant should want to be like his master. If they say the master belongs to the devil, they will say it all the more about those who work for him.
bwe@Matthew:10:28 @ Do not fear people who can kill the body. They cannot kill the spirit. But fear the one who can destroy both spirit and body in hell.
bwe@Matthew:10:35 @ I came to take away peace between a man and his father. I came to take away peace between a daughter and her mother. I came to take away peace between a mans wife and his mother.
bwe@Matthew:10:38 @ Anyone who is not willing to carry his cross and suffer with me, is not good enough for me.
bwe@Matthew:10:40 @ Anyone who takes you in, takes me in. And anyone who takes me in, takes in the one who sent me.
bwe@Matthew:10:42 @ And if any one as a disciple gives a drink of cold water to one of my children, he will not lose his reward. I tell you the truth.
bwe@Matthew:11:1 @ When Jesus finished telling his twelve disciples what to do, he left that place. He went to teach and tell Gods word to people in the towns around there.
bwe@Matthew:11:4 @ Jesus answered them, Go and tell John what you hear and see.
bwe@Matthew:11:9 @ Why did you go out? To see a prophet of God? Yes, I tell you, and he is much more than a prophet.
bwe@Matthew:11:11 @ I tell you the truth. No one has ever been born who is greater than John the Baptizer. And yet the smallest one in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
bwe@Matthew:11:12 @ From the time of John until now, people try hard to break into the kingdom of heaven. And strong people take hold of it.
bwe@Matthew:11:13 @ All the prophets and the books of the law gave Gods word until John came.
bwe@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came. He eats and drinks. People say, "This man eats and drinks too much! He is a friend with tax collectors and bad people!" But a man is proved to be wise by what he has done.
bwe@Matthew:11:20 @ Then Jesus began to talk about the towns where he had done most of his big works. He said hard things about the people, because they did not stop their wrong ways and turn back to God.
bwe@Matthew:11:21 @ He said, Chorazin! You will have trouble! Bethsaida! You will have trouble! If the big works I did in you had been done in the cities of Tyre and Sidon, the people there would have stopped their wrong ways long ago. They would wear the clothes people wear to show they are sad. They would sit in ashes.
bwe@Matthew:11:22 @ But I tell you, on the day when people are judged, you will be punished harder than the people from the cities of Tyre and Sidon.
bwe@Matthew:11:23 @ Capernaum, will you be lifted up to the sky? No, you will go down to death. If the big things I did in you had been done in the city of Sodom, it would be standing now.
bwe@Matthew:11:25 @ Then Jesus said, Father, you are Lord of heaven and earth. I thank you because you have hidden these things from people who are wise and know many things. But you have shown them to people who are like children.
bwe@Matthew:11:27 @ He said, My Father has given everything to me. No one knows who the Son is but the Father. No one knows who the Father is but the Son and those to whom the Son wants to show him.
bwe@Matthew:12:1 @ About that time, Jesus was walking through the grain fields on a Sabbath day. His disciples were hungry. They began to pick some of the grain and to eat it.
bwe@Matthew:12:3 @ But Jesus said to them, Have you not read what David did? He and his men who were with him were hungry.
bwe@Matthew:12:4 @ He went into Gods house. Some bread was there for God. Davids men ate it. David did not have the right to eat it, nor the men who were with him. Only the priests have the right to eat it. But David took the bread and ate it. He also gave some of it to the men who were with him.
bwe@Matthew:12:9 @ Jesus left that place and went into the meeting house.
bwe@Matthew:12:10 @ There was a man whose hand was thin and weak. The people asked Jesus, Is it right to heal a man on the Sabbath day? They wanted to find something wrong about Jesus.
bwe@Matthew:12:11 @ Jesus said to them, If one of you had a sheep and it fell into a hole on the Sabbath day, would you not take hold of it and pull it out?
bwe@Matthew:12:13 @ Then he said to the man, Hold out your hand. The man held out his hand and it was made well like the other hand.
bwe@Matthew:12:14 @ Then the Pharisees went out and planned together how to kill Jesus.
bwe@Matthew:12:15 @ Jesus knew about their plan, so he went away from there. Many people followed him and he healed them all.
bwe@Matthew:12:22 @ Then the people brought a man to Jesus. The man had a bad spirit in him. He was blind and could not talk. Jesus healed him. Then the man could talk and see.
bwe@Matthew:12:25 @ Jesus knew what they were thinking. He said to them, If one part of any country fights against the other part of the country, that country is broken down. If one part of any city or family fights against the other part of it, it cannot stand.
bwe@Matthew:12:26 @ If Satan drives out Satan, he fights against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
bwe@Matthew:12:29 @ If anyone wants to go into a strong mans house and steal his things, he must first tie the strong man. Then he can steal his things.
bwe@Matthew:12:33 @ Either make a tree good and its fruit good, or make a tree bad and its fruit bad. People know what kind of tree it is by the fruit on it.
bwe@Matthew:12:38 @ Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, Teacher, we want you to show us a sign.
bwe@Matthew:12:40 @ Jonah was inside the big sea animal for three days and three nights. So the Son of Man will be in the ground for three days and three nights.
bwe@Matthew:12:41 @ When people are judged, the men of the city of Nineveh will stand up and speak against the people of today. The people of Nineveh stopped their wrong ways when Jonah told them Gods word. And the one who is here is greater than Jonah.
bwe@Matthew:12:42 @ When people are judged, the Queen of the South will stand up and speak against the people of today. She came a long way to hear the wise talk of Solomon. And the one who is here is greater than Solomon.
bwe@Matthew:12:44 @ Then he says, "I will go back to my house from where I came." When he comes back, he finds it is empty, clean, and all fixed up.
bwe@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and brings seven other spirits with him. They are worse than he is. They go in and live there. Now the man is worse than he was at first. That is how it will be for the wrong people of today.
bwe@Matthew:12:46 @ While Jesus was still talking to the people, his mother and brothers stood outside. They wanted to talk to him.
bwe@Matthew:12:47 @ Someone told him, Your mother and your brothers are standing outside. They want to talk to you.
bwe@Matthew:12:49 @ He pointed to his disciples and said, These people are my mother and my brothers!
bwe@Matthew:12:50 @ Anyone who obeys my Father in heaven is my brother, my sister, and my mother.
bwe@Matthew:13:1 @ That day Jesus left the house and sat down by the sea side.
bwe@Matthew:13:2 @ Many people came to where he was. So he got into a boat and sat down. All the people stood on the land by the water.
bwe@Matthew:13:4 @ As he sowed it, some of the seed fell on the road. Birds came and ate the seed.
bwe@Matthew:13:7 @ Some seed fell among the weeds. The weeds grew up and made the new plants die.
bwe@Matthew:13:8 @ But some seed fell on good ground. The seed grew and the plants gave more seed. Some plants gave thirty seeds. Some gave sixty. And some gave a hundred.
bwe@Matthew:13:10 @ The disciples came to Jesus and asked him, Why do you tell the people these stories?
bwe@Matthew:13:12 @ Anyone who already has something will get more, and he will have plenty. But he who does not have anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.
bwe@Matthew:13:13 @ That is why I tell them stories. They look, but they do not see. They listen, but they do not hear or understand.
bwe@Matthew:13:14 @ They make what Isaiah the prophet said long ago, come true. Isaiah said: "You will listen and listen, but you will not understand. You will look and look, but you will not see.
bwe@Matthew:13:15 @ The hearts of these people have no feeling. They do not hear well with their ears. And they have shut their eyes. They do not want to see with their eyes. They do not want to hear with their ears. They do not want to understand in their hearts. They do not want to turn to me. If they did turn, I would heal them."
bwe@Matthew:13:17 @ I tell you the truth. Many prophets and good men wanted to see what you see, but they did not see them. They wanted to hear what you hear, but they did not hear them.
bwe@Matthew:13:19 @ People listen to the message about the kingdom of heaven. If anyone does not understand it, the devil comes along and takes the message out of his heart. That person is like the seed which fell on the road.
bwe@Matthew:13:20 @ Some seed fell on the stony ground. That is like a person who hears the message and right away he is glad to hear it.
bwe@Matthew:13:23 @ Some seed fell on good ground. That is like a person who hears the message and understands it. Much good comes from it. Some people are like the seed that gave a hundred more seeds. Some people are like the seed that gave sixty. Some people are like the seed that gave thirty.
bwe@Matthew:13:25 @ While people were sleeping, a bad man came and sowed weeds among the good seed. Then he went away.
bwe@Matthew:13:26 @ The good seed grew and the plants gave more seeds. Then the weeds grew too.
bwe@Matthew:13:27 @ The servants came and said to the man who owned the field, "Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How did the weeds get here?"
bwe@Matthew:13:28 @ He answered them, "A bad man has done this." They asked him, "Do you want us to go and pull up the weeds?"
bwe@Matthew:13:31 @ Jesus told the people another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A man took a mustard seed and planted it in his field.
bwe@Matthew:13:32 @ A mustard seed is the smallest of all seeds. But the plant that grows from it is bigger than other plants. It is like a tree. It is so big that birds come and live in the branches.
bwe@Matthew:13:33 @ Jesus told them another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A woman took yeast and mixed it with many cups of flour. The yeast went all through the flour.
bwe@Matthew:13:36 @ Then Jesus left the people and went into the house. His disciples came to him. They said, Tell us the meaning of the story about the weeds in the field.
bwe@Matthew:13:40 @ The weeds are gathered and burned in a fire. That is the way it will be at the end of the world.
bwe@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will send his angels. They will gather everything that is bad and the people who do bad things. They will take them out of his kingdom.
bwe@Matthew:13:42 @ They will put them into the big fire. There they will cry and make a noise with their teeth.
bwe@Matthew:13:44 @ The kingdom of heaven is like this. Something worth a lot of money is buried in a field. A man found it and covered it again. He was so glad that he went and sold everything he had. Then he bought that field.
bwe@Matthew:13:46 @ He found a pearl that was worth a lot of money. Then he went and sold everything he had and bought it.
bwe@Matthew:13:48 @ When it was full, the men pulled it to the land. They sat down and picked out the good fish into baskets. But they threw the bad fish away.
bwe@Matthew:13:49 @ That is the way it will be at the end of the world. The angels will come and take the bad people away from the good people.
bwe@Matthew:13:50 @ They will put the bad people into the never-ending hell fire. There they will cry and make a noise with their teeth.
bwe@Matthew:13:52 @ Then Jesus said to them, So anyone who knows the law and has learned about the kingdom of heaven, is like the headman of a house. He can bring both new things and old things out of what he has stored up.
bwe@Matthew:13:54 @ He went back to his home town and he taught people in their meeting house. They were very much surprised and said, Where did he learn all this? Where did he get the power to do these big works?
bwe@Matthew:13:55 @ Is he not the carpenters son? Is not Mary his mother? Are not James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas his brothers?
bwe@Matthew:13:57 @ They did not understand Jesus. Jesus said to them, Other people honour a man who is a prophet. But the people in his own country and home do not honour him.
bwe@Matthew:14:3 @ Herod had taken John and tied him up. He put him in prison. He did this because of Herodias. She was the wife of his brother Philip.
bwe@Matthew:14:9 @ The king was very sorry to do this. But he had made a promise. And all the people who were there had heard him promise. So he gave orders to do it.
bwe@Matthew:14:11 @ Johns head was brought on a plate. It was given to the girl. And she took it to her mother.
bwe@Matthew:14:12 @ Then Johns disciples came and took his body and buried it. They went and told Jesus.
bwe@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard this, he went away from there in a boat. He went to a lonely place by himself. The people heard that he went away and they followed him. They walked from the towns around there.
bwe@Matthew:14:14 @ When Jesus got out of the boat, he saw many people. He was sorry for them and he healed those who were sick.
bwe@Matthew:14:15 @ In the evening the disciples came to him. They said, This is a lonely place. And the time is late. Send these people away so they can go to the farms and villages to buy food for themselves.
bwe@Matthew:14:17 @ They said, We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish.
bwe@Matthew:14:19 @ Then Jesus told the people to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread and gave it to the disciples. The disciples gave it to the people.
bwe@Matthew:14:20 @ They all ate and had enough. They gathered twelve baskets full of pieces that were left.
bwe@Matthew:14:21 @ The number of men who ate was about five thousand, besides some women and children.
bwe@Matthew:14:22 @ Then Jesus told the disciples, You get into the boat right away and go ahead of me to the other side of the sea. And I will send these people away.
bwe@Matthew:14:23 @ After he had sent them away, he went up on the hill by himself to talk with God. Evening came and he was there alone.
bwe@Matthew:14:24 @ The boat was far out on the water by this time. The water was beating against the boat and the wind was blowing the wrong way.
bwe@Matthew:14:26 @ His disciples saw him walking on the water. They were afraid, and said, It is a spirit! Then they shouted loudly because they were afraid.
bwe@Matthew:14:29 @ Jesus said, Come. So Peter got out of the boat. He walked on the water and went toward Jesus.
bwe@Matthew:14:30 @ He saw what the wind did. Then he was afraid and began to go down in the water. He called out, Lord, save me!
bwe@Matthew:14:31 @ Right away Jesus put out his hand and took hold of him. He said, You do not believe very much in me! Why did you not believe?
bwe@Matthew:14:34 @ They crossed over the sea and came to the land at Gennesaret.
bwe@Matthew:14:35 @ The men there knew him and sent word to the people in all the country around. They brought all the sick people to him.
bwe@Matthew:14:36 @ They begged Jesus to let them touch his clothes. And all the people who touched him were healed.
bwe@Matthew:15:1 @ Then some Pharisees and scribes from Jerusalem came to Jesus.
bwe@Matthew:15:2 @ They asked him, Why do your disciples break the law our fathers made? They do not wash their hands before they eat.
bwe@Matthew:15:4 @ God said, "Respect your father and your mother." And God said, "Anyone who says wrong things to his father or his mother will surely die."
bwe@Matthew:15:10 @ Jesus called the people to him. He said to them, Listen to me and understand what I say.
bwe@Matthew:15:16 @ Jesus said, Do you still not understand?
bwe@Matthew:15:17 @ Do you not know this? What goes into the mouth goes into the stomach, and then it goes out of the body.
bwe@Matthew:15:19 @ Here is what comes from the heart: wrong thoughts, killing people, all kinds of adultery, stealing, lying, and saying wrong things about people.
bwe@Matthew:15:20 @ These things make a person dirty. To eat with hands that are not washed does not make him dirty.
bwe@Matthew:15:21 @ Jesus left that place and went to the country of Tyre and Sidon. 22A woman of the people of Canaan was in that country. She called out, Sir, you are the Son of David. Help me! My daughter is being troubled very much by a bad spirit.
bwe@Matthew:15:22 @ Jesus did not answer her. His disciples came to him and said, Send her away. She keeps calling after us.
bwe@Matthew:15:24 @ But the woman came and bowed down in front of Jesus and worshipped him. She said, Sir, help me.
bwe@Matthew:15:25 @ He said, It is not right to take the childrens food and give it to the little dogs.
bwe@Matthew:15:27 @ Then Jesus answered, Woman, you believe very much. The thing you want me to do will be done. And her daughter was healed at that very time.
bwe@Matthew:15:28 @ Jesus went on from there along the Sea of Galilee. He went up on a hill and sat down there.
bwe@Matthew:15:29 @ Many people came to him. They brought sick people with them. Some were lame. Some were hurt. Some were blind. Some could not talk.
