highlighted Matthew 17:20-27 ESV
He said to them, "Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you."As they were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men,and they will kill him, and he will be raised on the third day." And they were greatly distressed.When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma tax went up to Peter and said, "Does your teacher not pay the tax?"He said, "Yes." And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tax? From their sons or from others?"And when he said, "From others," Jesus said to him, "Then the sons are free.However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast a hook and take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth you will find a shekel. Take that and give it to them for me and for yourself."

For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?

But he turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man."Then Jesus told his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

He answered them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.'And in the morning, 'It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah." So he left them and departed.

Jerry Harvey
highlighted Matthew 15:2-7 ESV
"Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat."He answered them, "And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?For God commanded, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and, 'Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.'But you say, 'If anyone tells his father or his mother, "What you would have gained from me is given to God,"he need not honor his father.' So for the sake of your tradition you have made void the word of God.You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said:

highlighted Matthew 15:17-20 ESV
Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and is expelled?But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person.For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander.These are what defile a person. But to eat with unwashed hands does not defile anyone."

but the boat by this time was a long way from the land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them.And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea.But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, "It is a ghost!" and they cried out in fear.But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid."And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water."He said, "Come." So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus.But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me."Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?"And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God."

Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a desolate place by himself. But when the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the towns.When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them and healed their sick.Now when it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, "This is a desolate place, and the day is now over; send the crowds away to go into the villages and buy food for themselves."But Jesus said, "They need not go away; you give them something to eat."They said to him, "We have only five loaves here and two fish."And he said, "Bring them here to me."Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass, and taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and said a blessing. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.And they all ate and were satisfied. And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces left over.And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

and coming to his hometown he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?And are not all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?"And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own household."And he did not do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief.
