Matthew 1225-30

• But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to
  them Every kingdom divided against itself is
  brought to desolation, and every city or house
  divided against itself will not stand. 26 If
  Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against
  himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And
  if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do
  your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be
  your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the
  Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come
  upon you. 29 Or how can one enter a strong mans
  house and plunder his goods, unless he first
  binds the strong man? And then he will plunder
  his house. 30 He who is not with Me is against
  Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters
  abroad.

10
Matthew 1231-32

• Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy
  will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against
  the Spirit will not be forgiven men. 32 Anyone
  who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will
  be forgiven him but whoever speaks against the
  Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either
  in this age or in the age to come.

11
Matthew 1233-37

• Either make the tree good and its fruit good,
  or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad for
  a tree is known by its fruit. 34 Brood of vipers!
  How can you, being evil, speak good things? For
  out of the abundance of the heart the mouth
  speaks. 35 A good man out of the good treasure of
  his heart brings forth good things, and an evil
  man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil
  things. 36 But I say to you that for every idle
  word men may speak, they will give account of it
  in the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you
  will be justified, and by your words you will be
  condemned.

It Takes A Lowly Heart To Come To Jesus

• 540 Come Unto Me Leader

14
Matthew 1120-22

• Then He began to rebuke the cities in which
  most of His mighty works had been done, because
  they did not repent 21 Woe to you, Chorazin!
  Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works
  which were done in you had been done in Tyre and
  Sidon, they would have repented long ago in
  sackcloth and ashes. 22 But I say to you, it will
  be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day
  of judgment than for you.

15
Matthew 1123-25

• And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven,
  will be brought down to Hades for if the mighty
  works which were done in you had been done in
  Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24
  But I say to you that it shall be more tolerable
  for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than
  for you. 25 At that time Jesus answered and said,
  I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
  that You have hidden these things from the wise
  and prudent and have revealed them to babes.

16
Matthew 1126-30

• Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your
  sight. 27 All things have been delivered to Me by
  My Father, and no one knows the Son except the
  Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except
  the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to
  reveal Him. 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and
  are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29
  Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am
  gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest
  for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My
  burden is light.

Matthew 2234-36
But when the Pharisees heard that He had
silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together.
35 Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a
question, testing Him, and saying, 36 Teacher,
which is the great commandment in the law?
20
Matthew 2237-40
Jesus said to him, You shall love the Lord your
God with all your heart, with all your soul, and
with all your mind. 38 This is the first and
great commandment. 39 And the second is like it
You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On
these two commandments hang all the Law and the
Prophets.

23
Matthew 1311-14

• He answered and said to them, Because it has
  been given to you to know the mysteries of the
  kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been
  given. 12 For whoever has, to him more will be
  given, and he will have abundance but whoever
  does not have, even what he has will be taken
  away from him. 13 Therefore I speak to them in
  parables, because seeing they do not see, and
  hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
  14 And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is
  fulfilled, which says

24
Matthew 1314-15

• Hearing you will hear and shall not understand,
• And seeing you will see and not perceive
• 15For the hearts of this people have grown dull.
• Their ears are hard of hearing,
• And their eyes they have closed,
• Lest they should see with their eyes and hear
  with their ears,
• Lest they should understand with their hearts
  and turn,
• So that I should heal them.

25
Matthew 1316-20

• But blessed are your eyes for they see, and
  your ears for they hear 17 for assuredly, I say
  to you that many prophets and righteous men
  desired to see what you see, and did not see it,
  and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
• 18 Therefore hear the parable of the sower 19
  When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and
  does not understand it, then the wicked one comes
  and snatches away what was sown in his heart.
  This is he who received seed by the wayside. 20
  But he who received the seed on stony places,
  this is he who hears the word and immediately
  receives it with joy

26
Matthew 1321-23

• yet he has no root in himself, but endures
  only for a while. For when tribulation or
  persecution arises because of the word,
  immediately he stumbles. 22 Now he who received
  seed among the thorns is he who hears the word,
  and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness
  of riches choke the word, and he becomes
  unfruitful. 23 But he who received seed on the
  good ground is he who hears the word and
  understands it, who indeed bears fruit and
  produces some a hundredfold, some sixty, some
  thirty.

• 699 Will You Forgive Me? Leader

29
Matthew 1821-25

• Then Peter came to Him and said, Lord, how
  often shall my brother sin against me, and I
  forgive him? Up to seven times?
• 22 Jesus said to him, I do not say to you, up
  to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. 23
  Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain
  king who wanted to settle accounts with his
  servants. 24 And when he had begun to settle
  accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten
  thousand talents. 25 But as he was not able to
  pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with
  his wife and children and all that he had, and
  that payment be made.

30
Matthew 1826-29

• The servant therefore fell down before him,
  saying, Master, have patience with me, and I
  will pay you all. 27 Then the master of that
  servant was moved with compassion, released him,
  and forgave him the debt.
• 28 But that servant went out and found one of
  his fellow servants who owed him a hundred
  denarii and he laid hands on him and took him by
  the throat, saying, Pay me what you owe! 29 So
  his fellow servant fell down at his feet and
  begged him, saying, Have patience with me, and I
  will pay you all.

31
Matthew 1830-33

• And he would not, but went and threw him into
  prison till he should pay the debt. 31 So when
  his fellow servants saw what had been done, they
  were very grieved, and came and told their master
  all that had been done. 32 Then his master, after
  he had called him, said to him, You wicked
  servant! I forgave you all that debt because you
  begged me. 33 Should you not also have had
  compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had
  pity on you?

32
Matthew 1834-35

• And his master was angry, and delivered him to
  the torturers until he should pay all that was
  due to him.
• 35 So My heavenly Father also will do to you if
  each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his
  brother his trespasses.

Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom
his master made ruler over his household, to give
them food in due season? 46 Blessed is that
servant whom his master, when he comes, will find
so doing. 47 Assuredly, I say to you that he will
make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But if that
evil servant says in his heart, My master is
delaying his coming

36
Matthew 2448-51
and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to
eat and drink with the drunkards, 50 the master
of that servant will come on a day when he is not
looking for him and at an hour that he is not
aware of, 51 and will cut him in two and appoint
him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall
be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
