Jesus said to him, &#8220;I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> today &#8211; this very night &#8211; before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.&#8221;

I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> whoever does not receive<n id="2" /> the kingdom of God like a child<n id="3" /> will never<n id="4" /> enter it.&#8221;p>

To them belong the patriarchs,<n id="1" /> and from them,<n id="2" /> by human descent,<n id="3" /> came the Christ,<n id="4" /> who is God over all, blessed forever!<n id="5" /> Amen.p>

to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.p>

He alone possesses immortality and lives in unapproachable light, whom no human has ever seen or is able to see. To him be honor and eternal power! Amen.p>

and has appointed<n id="1" /> us as a kingdom,<n id="2" /> as priests<n id="3" /> serving his God and Father &#8211; to him be the glory and the power for ever and ever!<n id="4" /> Amen.p>

The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures threw themselves to the ground<n id="1" /> and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne, saying: &#8220;Amen! Hallelujah!&#8221;p>

<p class="bodytext">So Jesus answered them,<n id="1" /> &#8220;I tell you the solemn truth,<n id="2" /> the Son can do nothing on his own initiative,<n id="3" /> but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father<n id="4" /> does, the Son does likewise.<n id="5" />

I<n id="1" /> tell you the truth,<n id="2" /> until heaven and earth pass away not the smallest letter or stroke of a letter<n id="3" /> will pass from the law until everything takes place.

Thus whenever you do charitable giving,<n id="1" /> do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in synagogues<n id="2" /> and on streets so that people will praise them. I tell you the truth,<n id="3" /> they have their reward.

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;Whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, because they love to pray while standing in synagogues<n id="1" /> and on street corners so that people can see them. Truly I say to you, they have their reward.

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;When<n id="1" /> you fast, do not look sullen like the hypocrites, for they make their faces unattractive<n id="2" /> so that people will see them fasting. I tell you the truth,<n id="3" /> they have their reward.

Whenever<n id="1" /> they persecute you in one place,<n id="2" /> flee to another. I tell you the truth,<n id="3" /> you will not finish going through all the towns<n id="4" /> of Israel before the Son of Man comes.p>

And whoever gives only a cup of cold water to one of these little ones in the name of a disciple, I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> he will never lose his reward.&#8221;p>

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> among those born of women, no one has arisen greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least<n id="2" /> in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he is.

For I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> many prophets and righteous people longed to see<n id="2" /> what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.p>

I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> there are some standing here who will not<n id="2" /> experience<n id="3" /> death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.&#8221;<n id="4" />p>

He told them, &#8220;It was because of your little faith. I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> if you have faith the size of<n id="2" /> a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, &#8216;Move from here to there,&#8217; and it will move; nothing<n id="3" /> will be impossible for you.&#8221;p>

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.

Again, I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> if two of you on earth agree about whatever you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you.<n id="2" />
