For as you have been judging, so you will be judged, and with your measure will it be measured to you.

Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged.

Or which of you, if his son makes a request for bread, will give him a stone?

If you, then, being evil, are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who make requests to him?

Because to everyone who makes a request, it will be given; and he who is searching will get his desire, and to him who gives the sign, the door will be open.

Make a request, and it will be answered; what you are searching for you will get; give the sign, and the door will be open to you:

And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house; and it came down and great was its fall.

Everyone, then, to whom my words come and who does them, will be like a wise man who made his house on a rock;

Every tree which does not give good fruit is cut down and put in the fire.

A great number will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, were we not prophets in your name, and did we not by your name send out evil spirits, and by your name do works of power?
