Enter Ye in at the strait gate:
|
for wide is the gate, and broad is the way,
|
that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
|
because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way,
|
which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
|
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing,
|
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
|
Ye shall know them by their fruits.
|
Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
|
Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit;
|
but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
|
A good tree cannot bringeth forth evil fruit,
|
neither can a corrupt tree bringeth forth good fruit.
|
Every tree that bringeth not good fruit is hewn down,
|
and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruit ye shall know them.
|
Not everyone that saith unto me, lord, lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven;
|
but he that doeth the will of my father which is in heaven.
|
Many will say to me in that day, lord, lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?
|
And in thy name have cast out devils?
|
And in thy name done many wonderful works?
|
And then i will profess unto them, I never knew you:
|
Depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
|
Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine,
|
and doeth them. I will liken him unto a wise man,
|
which built his house upon a rock; and it fell not;
|
for it was founded upon a rock.
|
And everyone that heareth that heareth these sayings of mine,
|
and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man,
|
which built his house on the sand.
|
And the rain descended, and the floods came,
|
and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; And it fell, and great was the fall.
