th that which is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart the
mouth speaketh.
6:46. And why call you me, Lord, Lord; and do not the things which I
say?
6:47. Every one that cometh to me and heareth my words and doth them, I
will shew you to whom he is like.
6:48. He is like to a man building a house, who digged deep and laid the
foundation upon a rock. And when a flood came, the stream beat
vehemently upon that house: and it could not shake it: for it was
founded on a rock.
6:49. But he that heareth and doth not is like to a man building his
house upon the earth without a foundation: against which the stream beat
vehemently. And immediately it fell: and the ruin of that house was
great.
Luke Chapter 7
Christ heals the centurion's servant. He raises the widow's son to life,
answers the messengers sent by John and absolves the penitent sinner.
7:1. And when he had finished all his words in the hearing of the
people, he entered into Capharnaum.

7:4. And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying to

7:8. For I also am a man subject to authority, having under me soldiers:

faith, not even in Israel.
7:10. And they who were sent, being returned to the house, found the
