Jeremiah 13:23
13:23 But there is little hope for you ever doing good,
you who are so accustomed to doing evil.
Can an Ethiopian change the color of his skin?
Can a leopard remove its spots?
Matthew 7:3-5
7:3 Why
do you see the speck
in your brother’s eye, but fail to see
the beam of wood
in your own?
7:4 Or how can you say
to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ while there is a beam in your own?
7:5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
Matthew 19:24-25
19:24 Again I say,
it is easier for a camel
to go through the eye of a needle
than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God.”
19:25 The
disciples were greatly astonished when they heard this and said, “Then who can be saved?”
Matthew 23:24
23:24 Blind guides! You strain out a gnat yet swallow a camel!
Luke 18:25
18:25 In fact, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle
than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”
