Matthew 10:37-11:1 (Gospel)
- 37
- He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
- 38
- And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.
- 39
- He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.
- 40
- He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.
- 41
- He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward.
- 42
- And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward.”

- Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities.
