four books of the new testament in the bible matthew mark, Luke, and John. These are the stories of Jesus Christ's life on earth, the friendships, the parables, the sacrifices, the meals, the miracles. So here is how it works. I'll read three chapters to you. You can listen or read along in your own Bible or online, and then I'll pray. And that's it. So today is day three.

And I'll be reading Matthew chapter 7 through 9. And this month I'm reading from the CSB version.

1:04.4

Matthew 7. Do not judge so that you won't be judged. For you will be judged by the same standard with which you judge

1:12.0

others and you will be measured by the same measure you use. Why do you look at the splinter in your brother's eye but don't notice the beam of wood in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, let me take the splinter out of your eye and look, there's a beam of wood in your own eye. Hypocrite first, take the beam of wood out of

1:28.7

your eye, and then you will see clearly to take the splinter out of your brother's eye.

1:33.1

Don't give what is holy to dogs or toss your pearls before pigs, or they will trample them under

their feet, turn, and tear you to pieces. Ask and it will be given to you. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Who among you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake. If you then,

2:02.5

who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your father in

2:07.3

heaven give good things to those who ask him? Therefore, whatever you want others to do for you,

2:12.7

do also the same for them. For this is the law and the prophets. Enter through the narrow gate, for the gate is wide

2:20.4

and the road broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who go through it. How narrow is the

2:25.8

gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it. Be on your guard against false

2:31.4

prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravaging wolves.

2:35.8

You'll recognize them by their fruit. Are grapes gathered from thorn bushes or figs from thistles?

2:41.4

In the same way, every good tree produces good fruit, but a bad tree produces bad fruit.

2:46.6

A good tree can't produce bad fruit, neither can a bad tree produce good fruit.

2:51.0

Every tree that doesn't produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

2:55.1

So you'll recognize them by their fruit.

2:57.5

Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my father in heaven.
