Matthew 5
He began to teach them.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, those who mourn, the meek, those who hunger and thirst, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, those who are persecuted...
You are salt, you are light...
Anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment -- settle matters quickly with your adversary...
Anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart....
If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. Hand over your coat. Go the extra mile. Give to the one who asks you...
Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you...
Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Matthew 3
John the Baptist: "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near."
"Produce fruit in keeping with repentance."
"after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry."
"I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?
A voice from heaven:
"This is my son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."
"Produce fruit in keeping with repentance."
"after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry."
"I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?

"This is my son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."
