The Gospel of Jesus Christ - MATTHEW 16
MATTHEW
16
CHAPTER XVI.
Christ refuses to shew the Pharisees a sign from
heaven. Peter's confession is
rewarded. He is rebuked for opposing
Christ's passion. All his followers must
deny themselves.
1
And *there came to him the Pharisees and Sadducees, tempting: and they asked
him to shew them a sign from heaven.
2
But he answered and said to them: *When it is evening, you say: It will be fair
weather, for the sky is red.
3
And in the morning: To-day there will be a storm, for the sky is red and
lowering.
4
You know then how to discern the face of the sky: and can you not know the
signs of the times?* A wicked and
adulterous generation seeketh after a sign: and a sign shall not be given it,
**but the sign of Jonas the prophet. And
he left them and went away.
5
And when his disciples were come over the water, they had forgotten to take
bread.
6
And he said to them: *Take heed, and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and
Sadducees.
7
But they thought within themselves, saying: Because we have taken no bread.
8
And Jesus knowing it, said: Why do you think within yourselves, O ye of little
faith, because you have no bread?
9
Do you not yet understand, neither do you remember *the five loaves among five
thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?
10
*Nor the seven loaves, among four thousand men, and how many baskets you took
up?
11
Why do you not understand that it was not concerning the bread I said to you:
Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and Sadducees?
12
Then they understood that he said not that they should beware of the leaven of
bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees, and Sadducees.
13
*And Jesus came into the parts of Cæsarea Philippi: and he asked his disciples
saying: Whom do men say that the Son of man is?
14
But they said: *Some John the Baptist, and others Elias, and others Jeremias,
or one of the prophets.
15
Jesus saith to them: But whom do you say that I am.
16
Simon Peter answering said: *Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God.
17
And Jesus answering, said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because
flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father, who is in heaven.
18
*And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my
church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19
*And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. **And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth,
it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth,
it shall be loosed also in heaven.
20
Then he commanded his disciples, that they should tell no one that he was Jesus
the Christ.
21
From that time forth Jesus began to shew to his disciples, that he must go to
Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the ancients and the Scribes, and chief
priests, and be put to death, and the third day rise again.
22
And Peter taking him, began to rebuke him, saying: Lord, be it far from thee;
this shall not be unto thee.
23
But he turning, said to Peter: *Go after me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto me:
because thou not relish the things that are of God, but the things that are of
men.
24
Then Jesus said to his disciples: *If any man will come after me, let him deny
himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25
*For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his
life for my sake, shall find it.
26
For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss
of his own soul? Or what shall a man
give in exchange for his soul?
27
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father, with his angels: *and
then will he render to every man according to his works.
28
Amen, I say to you, *there are some of them standing here, who shall not taste
death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Christ will return, first: the Coming of Antichrist

The Antichrist comes first. We are to have nothing to do with that, even at the cost of our lives.
