[last lines]
Christ
All authority has been given to me in heaven and earth. Go, therefore. And make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and the Holy Ghost, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And behold. I am with you always even unto the end of the world.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, the kingdom of heaven is theirs. Blessed are those who mourn, they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the clean of heart, they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. Blessed are those persecuted for righteousness' sake, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs. Blessed are you when men mock you and persecute you, and falsely speak all manner of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven.

And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do, who think to make themselves heard by their eloquence. Therefore, do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. In this manner, therefore, pray. Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. They kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Christ
I have come to set man at variance with his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law with her mother-in-law. A man's enemies will be the people of his own house. He who loves his father and mother more than Me, that loves his son or daughter more than Me, is not worthy of Me.

When thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth, that your charitable deed may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.

Christ
Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged. And with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why beholdest thou the speck that is in thy brother's eye, and are not aware of the beam which is in your own?

Enter by the narrow gate. It is a broad gate and a wide road that leads you to perdition, and those who go in that way are many. But how small is the gate, how narrow the road that leads on to life. And how few there are to find it.

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, "I will return into my house from whence I came out." And when he comes, he findeth it empty, swept, and put in order. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. So that the last state of that man is worse than the first. So it shall fare with this wicked generation.

Listen, you that have ears to hear with. As for this generation, to what shall I compare it? It is like unto children sitting in the markets, and calling to their companions, "You would not dance when we piped to you. We mourned to you, and you did not lament." When John came, he would neither eat nor drink, and they say of him that he is possessed. The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, "Behold. A glutton and a drunkard. A friend of publicans and sinners." It is by her own children that wisdom is vindicated. Woe to thee, cities in which I have done my miracles, and you have not repented!

Verily, I say unto you, that a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And once again, I tell you. It is easier for a camel to pass through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

If thy hand or foot offend thee, cut it off and cast is away from thee. Better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, than to have two hands and two feet to be cast into the everlasting fire.

If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, doth he not leave the 99 on the mountains and seeketh that which is gone astray? And if he should find it, I say unto you. He rejoiceth more of that sheep, than over the 99 which went not astray. So too, it is not the will of your Father that one of these little ones should be lost.

Christ
I say unto you. Unless you are converted and become as little children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as a child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one such child in my name receiveth me. But who so shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for him if a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

No man can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one, and love the other, or he will devote himself to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket. It is put on a lamp stand to give light to all the people of the house.

Christ
I say to you then, do not fret over your life, and how to support it with food and drink. Or over your body, and how to keep it clothed. Is not life itself a greater gift than food? The body more than clothing? Look at the birds in the air. They never sow or reap or gather grain into barns. Yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you, by worrying, can add a single hour to his life? And why do you worry about clothing? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not toil of spin, and yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O men of little faith? Do not fret then, asking what are we to eat. Or what are we to drink. Or how shall we find clothing. For the Gentiles strive after all these things. For your Heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be yours without the asking.

The man who exults himself will be humbled, and the man who humbles himself will be exalted.

One is to come after me, who is mightier than I. I am not worthy even to carry his shoes for him. He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire.
