36. A person’s enemies will be members of his own family.’ Micah 7:6
37. “Whoever loves his father or mother more than he loves me is not worthy to be my follower. Whoever loves his son or daughter more than he loves me is not worthy to be my follower.
38. Whoever is not willing to die on a cross and follow me is not worthy of me.
39. Whoever tries to hold on to his life will give up true life. Whoever gives up his life for me will hold on to true life.
40. Whoever accepts you also accepts me. And whoever accepts me also accepts the One who sent me.
41. Whoever meets a prophet and accepts him will receive the reward of a prophet. And whoever accepts a good man because that man is good will receive the reward of a good man.
42. Whoever helps one of these little ones because they are my followers will truly get his reward. He will get his reward even if he only gave my follower a cup of cold water.”
