Gospel according to Matthew

Therefore don't be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.

Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, him I will also confess before my Father who is in heaven.

But whoever denies me before men, him I will also deny before my Father who is in heaven.

"Don't think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn't come to send peace, but a sword.

For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

A man's foes will be those of his own household.

He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn't worthy of me.
