Sayings by Jesus Christ
If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.
Let the dead bury their own dead.
I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.
Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.
Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division. For from now on in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three. They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.
Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.
Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.
And he said to them, 'When I sent you out with no moneybag or knapsack or sandals, did you lack anything?' They said, 'Nothing.' He said to them, 'But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one.'
And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.
Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.
So therefore, any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.
Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel across sea and land to make a single proselyte, and when he becomes a proselyte, you make him twice as much a child of hell as yourselves.
You serpents, you brood of vipers, how are you to escape being sentenced to hell?
I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.
The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.'
And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.
