The Source of the Force

Yeshua taught to the masses on several occasions. Two prominent hillside Ministries have been chosen to be recorded. It is often said He preached to the five thousand like that was all that was there. Once again this is faulty information. The Bible says five thousand men plus women and children. If most were married and had children He must have preached to more than 20,000 at a time. Here's a reference from one of these meetings when he fed them with a few fishes and loaves of bread.  And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children. MAT 14:21   

His message in the Sermon on the Mount is recorded in Matthew Chapters 5, 6, & 7. We have used this as the root of the study that follows and have placed an arrow (<) after the passage referenced. This study includes cross-references found throughout the Bible. Since we were not there during this time the references help us understand and explain what our Messiah taught. 

Before we start we would like to ask you to read a few scriptures that emphasize what He is about to teach.

Not every one that says Yeshua is Lord, will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. MAT 7:21
 
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads to life, and few there be that find it. MAT 7:14 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom will we go? You have the words of eternal life. JOH 6:68 Hear the parable of the sower. MAT 13:18 When any one hear the word of the kingdom, and understand it not, then come the wicked one, and catch away that which was sown in his heart. This is he that received seed by the way side. MAT 13:19 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that hears the word, and 1anon with joy receive it; MAT 13:20 Yet has he not root in himself, but endures for a while: for when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, by and by he is offended. MAT 13:21 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that hear the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. MAT 13:22 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that hears the word, and understands it; which also bear fruit, and bring forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. MAT 13:23 Then said he to his disciples, The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few; MAT 9:37 Pray you therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest. MAT 9:38 But I say to you, That every idle word that men will speak, they will give account thereof in the day of judgment. MAT 12:36 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned. MAT 12:37 And he said to them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. MAR 16:15 He that believes and is baptized will be saved; but he that believes not will be damned. MAR 16:16 And these signs will follow them that believe; In my name will they cast out devils; they will speak with new tongues; MAR 16:17 They will take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover. MAR 16:18

And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his 2disciples came to him: <MAT 5:1 And he go up into a mountain, and call to him whom he would: and they came to him. MAR 3:13 

And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, <MAT 5:2 

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. <MAT 5:3 
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. PSA 51:17 Better it is to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud. PRO 16:19 For this said the high and lofty One that inhabit eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a 3contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. ISA 57:15 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be you poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. LUK 6:20 For you see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:1CO 1:26 

Blessed are they that 4morn: for they will be comforted. <MAT 5:4 
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord has 5anointed me to preach good tidings to the meek; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; ISA 61:1 Verily, verily, I say to you, That you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice: and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy. JOH 16:20 And our hope of you is steadfast, knowing, that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so will you be also of the consolation. 2CO 1:7 And God will wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there will be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither will there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. REV 21:4

Blessed are the 6meek: for they will inherit the earth. <MAT 5:5 
Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men, who were upon the face of the earth. NUM 12:3 But the meek will inherit the earth; and will delight themselves in the abundance of peace. PSA 37:11 But with righteousness will he judge the poor, and 7reprove with 8equity for the meek of the earth: and he will smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips will he slay the wicked. ISA 11:4 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. GAL 5:23 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. ROM 4:13

Blessed are they, which do hunger, and thirst after righteousness: for they will be filled. <MAT 5:6   
And Yeshua rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour. Then came the disciples to Yeshua apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? And Yeshua said to them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say to you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye will say to this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it will remove; and nothing will be impossible to you. Howbeit this kind goes not out but by prayer and fasting. MAT 17:21 And he said to them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting. MAR 9:29

Blessed are the merciful: for they will obtain mercy. <MAT 5:7 
Blessed is he that consider the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. PSA 41:1 For if you forgive men their 9trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: MAT 6:14 And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have 10ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. MAR 11:25   For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which you have showed toward his name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister. HEB 6:10  For he will have judgment without mercy, that has showed no mercy; and mercy rejoice against judgment. JAM 2:13

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they will see God. <MAT 5:8
Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man will see the Lord: HEB 12:14   For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then will I know even as also I am known. 1CO 13:12 Behold, what manner of love the Father has 11bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world know us not, because it knew him not. 1JO 3:1

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they will be called the 
children of God. <MAT 5:9 
Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man will see the Lord: HEB 12:14 

Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. <MAT 5:10 
But he will receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life. MAR 10:30 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. JOH 15:1 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, work for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; 2CO 4:17

Blessed are you, when men will revile you, and persecute 
you, and will say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my 
sake. <MAT 5:11
False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I
know not. PSA 35:11 Yea, for Yeshua's sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter. PSA 44:22 Hear the word of the LORD, you that tremble at his word; Your brothers that hate you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he will appear to your joy, and they will be ashamed. ISA 66:5 And you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles. MAT 10:18   
And ye will be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that
endures to the end will be saved. MAT 10:22   

Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. <MAT 5:12

You are the salt of the earth: but if the salt has lost his flavor, with what will it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. <MAT 5:13

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. <MAT 5:14 
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shines more and more to the perfect day. PRO 4:18 That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom you shine as lights in the world; PHI 2:15

Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it give light to all that are in the house. <MAT 5:15

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father, which is in heaven. <MAT 5:16 
 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they will behold, glorify God in the day of visitation. 1PE 2:12 Herein is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; so will you be my disciples. JOH 15:8 this are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth. 1CO 14:25

Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. <MAT 5:17 

For verily I say to you, Till heaven and earth pass, one 12jot or one 13tittle will in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. <MAT 5:18 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. LUK 16:17 

Whoever therefore will break one of these least commandments, and will teach men so, he will be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whoever will do and teach them, the same will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. <MAT 5:19   For whoever will keep the whole law, and offend in one point, he is guilty of all. JAM 2:10 For the Messiah is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. ROM 10:4  14Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. GAL 3:24

For I say to you, except your righteousness will exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. <MAT 5:20 
For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God. ROM 10:3

You have heard that it was said by them of old time, You will not kill; and whoever will kill will be in danger of the judgment: <MAT 5:21 Thou will not kill. EXO 20:13

But I say to you, that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause will be in danger of the judgment: and whoever will say to his brother, 15Raca will be in danger of the council: but whoever will say, You fool, will be in danger of hell fire. <MAT 5:22 
And you know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 1JO 3:5 You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speak a lie, he speak of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. JOH 8:44 And said, O full of all subtlety and all mischief, you child of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, wilt you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? ACT 13:10

Leave there your gift before the altar, and go your way; first 
be 16reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. <MAT 5:24

Agree with your adversary quickly, while you art in the way with him; unless at any time the adversary deliver you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be cast into prison. 
<MAT 5:25  
Acquaint now yourself with him, and be at peace: thereby good will come to you. JOB 22:21  Go not forth hastily to strive, lest you know not what to do in the end thereof, when your neighbor has put you to shame. PRO 25:8   Seek you the Lord while he may be found, call you upon him while he is near: ISA 55:6

17Verily I say to you, You will by no means come out thence, till you have paid the 18uttermost farthing. <MAT 5:26 
Who will be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 2TH 1:9

You have heard that it was said by them of old time, You 
shall not commit adultery: <MAT 5:27 

But I say to you, That whoever look on a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. <MAT 5:28 
Lust not after her beauty in your heart; neither let her take you with her eyelids. PRO 6:25  For this you know, that no 19whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of the Messiah and of God. EPH 5:5

And if your right eye you offend you, pluck it out, and cast it from you: for it is profitable for you that one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should be cast into hell. <MAT 5:29  

And if your right hand offend you, cut it off, and cast it from you: for it is profitable for you that one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should be cast into hell. <MAT 5:30
 And if your hand offend you, cut it off: it is better for you to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never will be quenched: MAR 9:43

It has been said, Whoever will put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement: <MAT 5:31 
When a man has taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favor in his eyes, because he has found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. DEU 24:1 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him. MAR 10:2

But I say to you, that whoever will put away his wife, saving for the cause of 20fornication, cause her to commit adultery: and whoever will marry her that is divorced commit adultery. <MAT 5:32  So then if, while her husband lived, she be married to another man, she will be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. ROM 7:3  And to the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: 1CO 7:10 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God has called us to peace. 1CO 7:15
Be you not unequally 21yoked together with unbelievers: for what            fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? And what            communion has light with darkness? 

Again, you have heard that it has been said by them of old time, You will not 22forswear thyself, but will perform to the Lord your oaths: <MAT 5:33  
 And you will not swear by my name falsely, neither will you profane the name of your God: I am the Lord. LEV 19:12 If a man vow a vow to the Lord, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he will not break his word, he will do according to all that proceed out of his mouth. NUM 30:2 That which is gone out of your lips you will keep and perform; even a freewill offering, according as you have vowed to the Lord your God, which you have promised with your mouth. DEU 23:23

But I say to you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne: <MAT 5:34 
But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your you be you; and your nay, nay; lest you fall into condemnation. JAM 5:12 

But let your communication be, Yes or No: for whatsoever is more than these come of evil. <MAT 5:37 
 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man. COL 4:6 

You have heard that it has been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: <MAT 5:38  
23Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he has caused a blemish in a man, so will it be done to him again. LEV 24:20 

But I say to you, that you resist not evil: whoever will strike you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. <MAT 5:39 
 24Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because you go to law one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? 1CO 6:7  Do not say, I will recompense evil; but wait on the Lord, and he will save you. PRO 20:22  See that none render evil for evil to any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.1TH 5:15 Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but 25contrariwise blessing; knowing that you are therefore called, that you should inherit a blessing. 1PE 3:9  I gave my back to the 26smites, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting. ISA 50:

And whoever will compel you to go a mile, go with him two. <MAT 5:41 

Give to him that ask you, and from him that would borrow of you turn not you away. <MAT 5:42  
But you will open your hand wide to him, and will surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanted. DEU 15:8

You have heard that it has been said, You will love your neighbor, and hate your enemy. <MAT 5:43 
You will not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you will love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord. LEV 19:18 You will not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever. DEU 23:6

But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; <MAT 5:44 

That you may be the children of your Father, which is in heaven: for he make his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and send 27rain on the just and on the unjust. <MAT 5:45 
If your enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: PRO 25:21  For you will heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD will reward thee. PRO 25:22  Bless them, which persecute you: bless, and curse not. ROM 12:14 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep. ACT 7:60 And labor, working with our own hands: being 28reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: 1CO 4:12 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judge righteously: 1PE 2:23

For if you love them that love you, what reward have you? Do not even the 29publicans the same? <MAT 5:46
For if you love them, which love you, what thank, have you? For sinners also love those that love them. LUK 6:32

And if you salute your brethren only, what do you more than others? do not even the 30publicans so? <MAT 5:47 

Be you therefore perfect, even as your Father, which is in heaven, is perfect. <MAT 5:48 
And when Abram was ninety yours old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be you perfect. GEN 17:1 Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say to them, You will be holy: for I the Lord your God am holy. LEV 19:2  Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in the Messiah Yeshua: COL 1:28 But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. JAM 1:4 But as he which has called you is holy, so be you holy in all manner of conversation; 1PE 1:15  Be you therefore followers of God, as dear children; EPH 5:1


Take heed that you do not your 31alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise you have no reward of your Father, which is in heaven. <MAT 6:1

Therefore when you do your alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the 32hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. 33Verily I say to you, They have their reward. <MAT 6:2  
Or he that 34exhorted, on exhortation: he that gives, let him do it with simplicity; he that rules, with diligence; he that show mercy, with cheerfulness. ROM 12:8 Whether you eat, or drink, or whatsoever you do, do all to the glory of God. 1CO 10:31

But when you do alms, let not your left hand know what your right hand doeth: <MAT 6:3

That your alms may be in secret: and your Father which sees in secret himself will reward you openly. <MAT 6:4

And when you pray, you will not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say to you, They have their reward. <MAT 6:5

But you, when you pray, enter into your closet, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father, which is in secret; and your Father which se in secret will reward you openly. <MAT 6:6 
I the Lord search the heart, 35I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. JER 17:10

But when you pray, use not 36vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. <MAT 6:7 
Be not rash with your mouth, and let not your heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and you upon earth: therefore let your words be few. ECC 5:2 

Be not like them: for your Father knows what things you have need of, before you ask him. <MAT 6:8 
God you know my down sitting and mine uprising, you understand my thought afar off. PSA 139:2

What follows is Yeshua's 'formula for prayer'. As you read notice the following: Our prayers are to give glory and honor and recognition of God being our supreme Master. We are to acknowledge we are nothing without Him and we appreciate His grace of forgiving us for our sin though the sacrifice of His Son Yeshua the Messiah the Anointed one. That we recognize He is in control and that we know He knows what we desire before we ask. That God is not as a 'Genie' in a bottle to supply our whims but that we know He will sustain us. We must ask for forgiveness of our sin as we forgive those who have offended us. After all if we believe that God is then we must recognize He knows what is going on in our life. If He is our supreme Master then what ever He wants to happen is going to happen whether or not we agree with Him at the time. "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by The Messiah Yeshua. PHI 4:19

After this manner therefore pray you: Our Father which art in heaven, 37Hallowed be your name. <MAT 6:9  
And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. MAT 23:9 And he said to them, When you pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. LUK 11:2 There is therefore now no 38condemnation to them, which are in the Messiah Yeshua, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. ROM 8:1   Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh, which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: will we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live? HEB 12:9  And one cried to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of His glory. ISA 6:3 You art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for you have created all things, and for your pleasure they are and were created. 
REV 4:11

Your Kingdom come, Your will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. <MAT 6:10
Bless the Lord, you his angels that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening to the voice of his word. PSA 103:20

Give us this day our daily bread. <MAT 6:11  
Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. JOB 23:12   Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: PRO 30:8

And forgive us our debts, trespasses or sins as we forgive those who owe us a debt, or have sinned against us. <MAT 6:12 

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. <MAT 6:13  Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. MAT 26:41   There has no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it.1CO 10:13   Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempt he any man: JAM 1:13  The Lord know how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished: 2PE 2:9   Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep you from the hour of temptation, which will come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. REV 3:10   I pray not that you should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil. JOH 17:15   Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: GAL 1:4

For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: <MAT 6:14 
And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. MAR 11:25 And be you kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you. EPH 4:32   39Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as the Messiah forgave you, so also do you. COL 3:13

But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. <MAT 6:15   
So likewise will my heavenly Father do also to you, if you from your hearts forgive not every one his brothers their trespasses. <MAT 18:35   For He will have judgment without mercy, that has showed no mercy; and mercy rejoice against judgment. JAM 2:13

Moreover when you 40fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad 41countenance: for they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to fast. Verily I say to you, they have their reward. <MAT 6:16  

But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face; <MAT 6:17

That you appear not to men to fast, but to your Father which is in secret: and your Father, which se in secret, will reward you openly. <MAT 6:18

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust does corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: <MAT 6:19 Labor not to be rich: cease from your own wisdom. PRO 23:4   Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who give us richly all things to enjoy; 1TI 6:17   Let your conversation be without 42covetousness; and be content with such things as you have: for he has said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you. HEB 13:5  

But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust does corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: <MAT 6:20  
Yeshua said to him, If you wilt be perfect, go and sell that you hast, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. MAT 19:21 

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. <MAT 6:21 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life. 1TI 6:19 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fade not away, reserved in heaven for you, 1PE 1:4

The light of the body is the eye: if therefore your eye were single, your whole body will be full of light. <MAT 6:22  
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when your eye is single, your whole body also is full of light; but when your eye is evil, your body also is full of darkness. LUK 11:34

But if your eye were evil, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you were darkness, how great is that darkness! <MAT 6:23  
 Because, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. ROM 1:21   In whom Satan, the god of this world, has blinded the minds of them, which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine to them. 2CO 4:4

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and 43mammon. <MAT 6:24
 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. GAL 1:10 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who give us richly all things to enjoy; 1TI 6:17 You adulterers and adulteresses, know you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Who ever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. JAM 4:4  Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1JO 2:15  No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. LUK 16:13

Therefore I say to you, Take no thought for your life, what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor thought for your body, what you will put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? <MAT 6:25 
Cast your burden upon the Lord, and he will sustain you: he will never suffer the righteous to be moved. PSA 55: 

Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; youth your heavenly Father feed them. Are you not much better than they? <MAT 6:26  
Who provide for the raven his food? When his young ones cry to God, they wander for lack of meat. JOB 38:41  He give to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry. PSA 147:9

Which of you by taking thought can add one 44cubit to his stature? <MAT 6:27

And why take you thought for 45raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: <MAT 6:28

And I say to you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. <MAT 6:29

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? <MAT 6:30

Therefore take no thought, saying, what will we eat? or, what will we drink? or, wherewithal will we be clothed? <MAT 6:31

 For after all these things do the Gentiles seek: for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. <MAT 6:32 
The Lord is my shepherd; I will not want. PSA 23:1 But my God will supply all your need according to his riches in glory by the Messiah Yeshua. PHI 4:19

But seek you first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things will be added to you. <MAT 6:33  
And I have also given you that which you have not asked, both rich, and honor: so that there will not be any among the kings like to you all your days. 1KI 3:13 O fear the Lord, you his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. PSA 34:9 I have been young, and now am old; youth have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. PSA 37:25 But he will receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life. MAR 10:30 But rather seek you the kingdom of God; and all these things will be added to you. LUK 12:31

Take therefore no thought for tomorrow: for tomorrow will take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient to the day is the evil thereof. <MAT 6:34

Judge not, that you be not judged. <MAT 7:1
 You also, which have judged your sisters, bear your own shame for your sins that you have committed more abominable than they: they are more righteous than you: you, be you confounded also, and bear your shame, in that you have justified your sisters. EZE 16:52   Judge not, and you will not be judged: condemn not, and you will not be condemned: forgive, and you will be forgiven: LUK 6:37 Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are that judges: for wherein you judges another, you condemn yourself; for you that judges do the same things. ROM 2:1   Let not him that eat despise him that eats not; and let not him which eat not judge him that eats: for God has received him. ROM 14:3  Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. 1CO 4:1  Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speak evil of his brother, and judge his brother, speak evil of the law, and judge the law: but if you judge the law, you art not a doer of the law, but a judge. JAM 4:11  

For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged: and with what measure you mete, it will be measured to you again. <MAT 7:2 
And he said to them, Take heed what you hear: with what measure you make, it will be measured to you: and to you that hear will more be given. MAR 4:24  Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, will men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you make it will be measured to you again. LUK 6:38


And why behold you the 46mote that is in your brother's eye, but considers not the 47beam that is in your own eye? <MAT 7:3
 And why behold you the mote that is in your brother's eye, but perceives not the beam that is in your own eye? LUK 6:41

Or how wilt you say to your brother, Let me pull out the mote out of your eye; and, behold, a beam is in your own eye? <MAT 7:4

You hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of your own eye; and then will you see clearly to cast out the mote out of your brother's eye. <MAT 7:5

Give not that which is holy to the dogs, neither cast you your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. <MAT 7:6 
He that reprove a scorner get to himself shame: and he that rebuke a wicked [man get] himself a blot. Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee. PRO 9:7-8     
And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye
depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of  Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city. MAT 10:14-15   But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things, which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. ACT 13:45

Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you: <MAT 7:7   
All things, whatsoever you will ask in prayer, believing, you will receive. MAT 21:22   Therefore I say to you, What things so ever you desire, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. MAR 11:24   And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples. LUK 11:1  And he spoke a parable to them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; LUK 18:1 And whatsoever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. JOH 14:13  If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you will ask what you will, and it will be done to you. JOH 15:7 And in that day you will ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say to you, Whatsoever you will ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. JOH 16:23

For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks find; and to him that knocks it will be opened. <MAT 7:8
 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject to us through your name. LUK 10:17  I love them that love me; and those that seek me early will find me. PRO 8:17
And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction to the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and you hear my voice. JON 2:2

Or what man is there of you, who if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? <MAT 7:9

Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? <MAT 7:10

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? <MAT 7:11 
Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, they may forget, yet will I not forget you. ISA 49:15   He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how will he not with him also freely give us all things? ROM 8:32

Therefore all things whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. <MAT 7:12  And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them likewise. LUK 6:31 You will not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you will love your neighbor as thyself: I am the Lord. LEV 19:18 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that love another has fulfilled the law. ROM 13:8 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; You will love your neighbor as thyself. GAL 5:14   Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith 48unfeigned: 1TI 1:5

Enter in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many there be which go in it. <MAT 7:13 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, said the Lord God. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity will not be your ruin. EZE 18:30 Cast away from you all your 49transgressions, whereby you have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you die, O house of Israel? EZE 18:31  For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dies, said the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live. EZE 18:32 

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which lead to life, and few there be that find it. <MAT 7:14
Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say to you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able. LUK 13:24   So likewise, whoever he be of you that 50forsake not all that he has, he cannot be my disciple. LUK 14:33 And we know that we are of God, and the whole world is in wickedness. 1JO 5:19

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. <MAT 7:15   
You will not hearken to the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the Lord your God prove you, to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. DEU 13:3 this   said the Lord of hosts, Hearken not to the words of the prophets that prophesy to you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord. JER 23:16   Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things come the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. EPH 5:6   Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. COL 2:8  Thus said the Lord concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that put not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him. MIC 3:5   Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 2TI 3:5 For I know this, that after my departing will grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. ACT 20:29

Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them, which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine, which you have learned; and avoid them. ROM 16:17   

This was not done and now the truth has been so distorted that the 'Way' is not being taught and a perversion has taken root; Now the 'Way' is a "contrary doctrine" which is being avoided.

You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? <MAT 7:16  
 For a good tree bring not forth corrupt fruit; neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. LUK 6:43

Even so every good tree bring forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bring forth evil fruit. <MAT 7:17 
But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered. JER 11:19

A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. <MAT 7:18

Every tree that bring not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. <MAT 7:19

Wherefore by their fruits you will know them. <MAT 7:20

Not every one that said to me, Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. <MAT 7:21   
Israel will cry to me, My God, we know you . HOS 8:  But be you doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. JAM 1:22

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works? <MAT 7:22

And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity. <MAT 7:23 
The foolish will not stand in your sight: God hates all workers of iniquity. PSA 5:5  Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity; for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping. PSA 6:8  Then will he say also to them on the left hand, Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: MAT 25:41

Therefore whoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: <MAT 7:24 

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.<MAT 7:25
Confirming the souls of the disciples, and 51exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. ACT 14:22   You, and all that will live godly in the Messiah Yeshua will suffer persecution. 2TI 3:12 Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord know them that are his. And, Let every one that name the name of the Messiah depart from iniquity. 2TI 2:19   Who are kept by the power of God through faith to salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1PE 1:5

And every one that hears these sayings of mine, and do them not, will be likened to a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: <MAT 7:26

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. <MAT 7:27  
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. HEB 10:31   For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Yeshua the Messiah, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 2PE 2:20

And it came to pass, when Yeshua had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: <MAT 7:28
 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence has this man this wisdom, and these mighty works? MAT 13:54  And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes. MAR 1:22  And when the Sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence has this man these things? And what wisdom is this, which is given to him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands? MAR 6:2   And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power. LUK 4:32

For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. <MAT 7:29 
The Lord God has given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he waken morning by morning, he waken mine ear to hear as the learned. ISA 50:4 The officers answered, Never man spoke like this man. JOH 7:46

This is the end of Yeshua's Sermon He spoke on many occasions. This then is His Doctrine of Truth.
