What did Jesus say about Trials?

³⁴ “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

³⁵ For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.

³⁶ For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?

³⁷ For what will a man give in exchange for his life?

³⁸ For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”

²⁰ “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand.

²¹ Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the middle of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter therein.

²² For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

²³ Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath to this people.

²⁴ They will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

¹¹ “Cheer up, Paul, for as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must testify also at Rome.”

²⁰ “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”

²⁹ “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,

³⁰ but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time: houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age to come eternal life.

³¹ But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

³³ “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles.

³⁴ They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”

⁵⁴ “Child, arise!”

¹⁵ “Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his clothes, so that he doesn’t walk naked, and they see his shame.”

⁴⁹ “I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.

⁵⁰ But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!

⁵¹ Do you think that I have come to give peace on the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.

⁵² For from now on, there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.

⁵³ They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother; mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”

³⁸ “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’

³⁹ But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.

⁴⁰ If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also.

⁴¹ Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.

⁴² Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.

⁴ “I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

⁵ But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. Yes, I tell you, fear him.

⁶ “Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria coins? Not one of them is forgotten by God.

⁷ But the very hairs of your head are all counted. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.

³⁴ “So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly.

³⁵ For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth.

³⁶ Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

⁹ “Don’t be afraid, but speak and don’t be silent;

¹⁰ for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”

⁴⁶ “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?”
