¹The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.7 sermons²He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.7 sermons³And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?7 sermons⁴A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.8 sermons⁵And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.7 sermons⁶Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.8 sermons⁷And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.6 sermons⁸Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?7 sermons⁹Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?6 sermons¹⁰Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?6 sermons¹¹How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?6 sermons¹²Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.5 sermons¹³When Jesus came into the coasts of Cesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?12 sermons¹⁴And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.10 sermons¹⁵He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?9 sermons¹⁶And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.16 sermons¹⁷And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar–jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.12 sermons¹⁸And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.33 sermons¹⁹And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.8 sermons²⁰Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.6 sermons²¹From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.11 sermons²²Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.7 sermons²³But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.18 sermons²⁴Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.15 sermons²⁵For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.10 sermons²⁶For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?15 sermons²⁷For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.5 sermons²⁸Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.6 sermons
