And blessed is whoever is not offended by me.”

“Take care, then, how you hear! For whoever has—more will be given to him; and whoever does not have—even what he seems to have will be taken away from him.”

For whoever wants to save · his life will lose it, but whoever loses · his life for my sake, this person will save it.

For whoever is ashamed of me and of · my words, of this one will the Son of Man be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

and said to them, “Whoever receives this · child in · my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. So the one who is least among you all, this is the one who is great.”

Whoever does not carry · his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.

Whoever tries to retain · his life for himself will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it.

I tell you the truth, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall certainly never enter it.”
