You hypocrite! first throw out the beam from your own eye and then you shall see clearly to throw out the splinter from your brother’s eye! Do not give that which is holy to the dogs neither throw your pearls before pigs in case they trample them under their feet and turn and lacerate you; Ask and it shall be given you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened for you because everyone who asks receives and he who seeks finds and for him who knocks it shall be opened; because what man is there of you whom if his son asks for bread will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish will give him a serpent? If you then being evil know how to give good gifts to your children how much more shall your Father who is in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him? therefore everything that you would desire that men should do to you even so do it to them because this is the law and the prophets; Enter in at the straight gate because the gate that leads to destruction is wide and the way is broad and there are many who go in that way because the way which leads to life is straight and the gate is narrow and there are few who find it; Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inside they are ravaging wolves; you shall know them by their fruits; do men gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles? even so every good tree produces good fruit but a corrupt tree produces evil fruit; A good tree cannot produces evil fruit neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit; every tree which does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire therefore by their fruits you shall know them; Not everyone who says to Me: Lord Lord shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven but he who does the will of my Father who is in Heaven; Many will say to Me in that day: Lord Lord have we not prophesied in your name and in your name have expelled demons and in your name have done many wonderful works? and I then will proclaim to them: I never knew you; depart from Me you who do works of evil; therefore whoever hears these sayings of mine and does them I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock and where the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat upon that house and it did not fall because it was established on a rock; and everyone who hears these sayings of mine and does not do them shall be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand; and when the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on that house and it collapsed the fall of it was great
