"He who welcomes such a child, welcomes me." "If anyone hurts the conscience of one of these little ones he had better have drowned in the sea with a mill-stone hung about his neck." "Woe to the world, for the hurt done to conscience" "Such hurt must come, but woe to the man through whom it comes." "If your hand or foot is an occasion of failing to you cut it off and cast it away from you." "Better to enter into life crippled or lame than to have hands and feet when you are cast into eternal fire" "If a man has a hundred sheep and one has strayed does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to look for the stray?" "If, by good fortune, he finds it he rejoices more over that one than over those that did not stray." "So it is not your Father's pleasure that one of these little ones be lost."

"If you have faith and do not hesitate you will be able to do more." "If you say to this mountain:" "Be cast into the sea, it will come about." "Every gift you ask for in prayer will be granted." "By what authority do you do these things?" "Who gave you this authority?" "I too have a question to ask." "If you can answer I will tell you what is my authority." "Whence did John's baptism come, from heaven or from men?" "If we tell him it was from heaven, he will ask:" "Then why did you not believe him?" "If we say from men, we have reason to fear the people for they all look upon John as a prophet." "We cannot tell." "And you will not learn from me of my authority." "Tell me what you think:" "A man had two sons and he asked the first to work in his vineyard that day." "The son refused, but relented afterwards and went." "He asked his second son to work in the vineyard." "The son said he would go, but did not go." "Which of the two did his father's will?" "The second."

"He wailed it, dug a wine-press, and let it to vine-dressers." "Then he went on his travels." "At vintage-time he sent his servants to claim its revenues." "The vine-dressers beat his servants killed one and stoned another." "The man sent even more servants, but they were used no better." "Then he sent his son, thinking he would be respected." "But the vine-dressers, seeing the man's heir thought to kill him and seize his inheritance." "They thrust him from the vineyard and killed him." "What will the man do to those vine-dressers?" "He will bring those wretches to a wretched end and will let the vineyard to others who will pay him his due." "Have you never read these words in the scriptures:" "The stone which the builders rejected has become the corner-stone this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?" "I tell you the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people which yields the revenues that belong to it." "When a man falls against the stone, he will break his bones." "When it falls on him, it will scatter him like chaff." "Many are called, but few are chosen." "Master, we know well that you are sincere and teach in all sincerity the ways of God." "You hold no one in awe, making no distinction between man and man." "Tell us, then, is it right to pay tribute to Caesar, or not?" "Hypocrites, why test me thus?" "Show me the coinage in which the tribute is paid." "Whose likeness, whose name is inscribed on it?" "Give unto Caesar what is Caesar's, to God what is God's." "Moses told us:" "If a man leaves no children when he dies his brother shall marry the widow by right of kinship and beget children in the dead brother's name." "We had seven brothers in our country, of whom the first died a married man without issue, bequeathing his wife to the second." "He died, bequeathing her to the third and finally she had been every brother's wife, dying last of all." "When the dead rise again, which brother will be her husband?" "You do not understand the scriptures, or what is the power of God." "When the dead rise again, there is no marrying or giving in marriage." "They are as the angels in heaven are." "Have you never read what God himself said of the resurrection?" "I am the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob." "Yet it is of living men, not dead men, that he is God." "Master, which commandment in the law is the greatest?" "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart thy whole soul and thy whole mind." "This is the greatest of the commandments, and the first." "And the second, it's like:" "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." "The scribes and Pharisees sit in the chair of Moses."

"As is customary, I wish to release a prisoner according to your choice." "Whom shall I release?" "Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?" "What wrong has he done?" "Let him be crucified!" "I have no part in the death of this innocent man." "It concerns you only." "His blood be upon us, and upon our children!" "Hail, king of the Jews!" "Carry this cross!" "You will listen, but for you there is no understanding." "You will watch, but for you there is no perceiving." "The heart of this people has become dull." "Their ears are slow to listen, they keep their eyes shut." "So they may never see with those eyes, or hear with those ears." "My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" "He is calling upon Elias." "Wait, let us see if Elias is to come and save him." "I know you have come to look for Jesus, who was crucified." "He is not here; he has risen, as he told you." "Tell his disciples you shall have sight of him in Galilee." "All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me." "Make disciples of all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost teaching them to obey all the commandments I have given you." "Behold, I am with you always, unto the end of the world."
