A Prayer
of Jesus
I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and
understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.

SOME SOFT SAYINGS
(A Revisit of our 9th Edition)
The hard sayings of Jesus tend to be emphasized on this site because they are crucial to his gospel and are little noted in Christendom.  His soft sayings are also crucial.  They comprise a large portion of his utterances and are well known though often misapplied.  Here we remind you of a few of them -- wonderful words, easy to hear!

Some Beatitudes

Luke 6:20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said: "Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 "Blessed are you that hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. "Blessed are you that weep now, for you shall laugh.
22 "Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they exclude you and revile you, and cast out your name as evil, on account of the Son of man!
23 Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for so their fathers did to the
prophets.


Abundant Life


John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.
Good Things

Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.


The Promise of Rest

Matthew 11:28   Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."


The Life


John 11:25, 26 I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die
God's Love

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
17 For God sent the Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.


On Hearing His Words
 
John 5:24 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

The Light of the World
 
John 8:12   Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.
PEACE TO YOU AND TO YOUR HOUSE
