45. so that you may be like your Father in heaven, since he causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
46. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Even the tax collectors do the same, don’t they?
47. And if you only greet your brothers, what more do you do? Even the Gentiles do the same, don’t they?
48. So then, be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
