The trickery of the Gibeonites

 10  -  And all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, which was at Ashtaroth.

11  -  Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us, saying, Take victuals with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say unto them, We are your servants: therefore now make ye a league with us.

12  -  This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; but now, behold, it is dry, and it is mouldy:

13   -  And these bottles of wine, which we filled, were new; and, behold, they be rent: and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey.

14  -  And the men took of their victuals, and asked not counsel at the mouth of the LORD.

15  -  And Joshua made peace with them, and made a league with them, to let them live: and the princes of the congregation sware unto them.  🔯💟💟💟🙏

6  -  The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:

7  -  Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.

8  -  Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.  🔯💜💜💜🙏

The parable of the sower

 3  -   Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

4  -  And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

5  --  And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

6  -  But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

7  -  And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

8  -  And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

9  -  And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10  -  And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

11  -  And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

12  -  That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

13  -  And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables. 🔯💜💜💜🙏

🔯   Read Matthew 5  🔯   

The higher righteousness  

17  -   Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18  -  For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19  -  Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20  -  For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. 🔯💟💟💟🙏
