Temptation by the fundamentalists and the modernists
16:1-12
Matt. 16
:1
16:1
aAnd the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and
btesting Him asked Him to show them a
1csign out of heaven.
Matt. 16
:2
16:2
But He answered and said to them,
1When evening falls, you say,
There will be fair weather, for the sky is red;
Matt. 16
:3
16:3
And in the morning, It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and gloomy. The
1face of the sky you know
how to
adiscern, but you cannot
2discern the signs of the times.
Matt. 16
:4
16:4
An aevil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the
1sign of
bJonah. And He
cleft them and went away.
Matt. 16
:5
16:5
And when the disciples came to the other side, they had forgotten to take
1bread.
Matt. 16
:6
16:6
And Jesus said to them, Watch and beware of the
aleaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Matt. 16
:7
16:7
But they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we did not take bread.
Matt. 16
:8
16:8
And Jesus, knowing
it, said, Why are you reasoning among yourselves, you of
alittle faith, because you have no bread?
Matt. 16
:9
16:9
Do you not yet understand nor remember the
afive loaves of the five thousand and how many
1handbaskets you took up?
Matt. 16
:10
16:10
Nor the
aseven loaves of the four thousand and how many
1baskets you took up?
Matt. 16
:11
16:11
How is it that you do not understand that
it was not about bread
that I spoke to you? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Matt. 16
:12
16:12
Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the
1teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

Matt. 16
:14
16:14
And they said,
1Some,
aJohn the Baptist; and others,
bElijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.
Matt. 16

He said to them, But you, who do you say that I am?
Matt. 16
:16
16:16
And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the
1aChrist, the
1bSon of the
2cliving God.
Matt. 16
:17

And Jesus answered and said to him,
aBlessed are you,
bSimon 1Barjona, because
2cflesh and blood has not
drevealed this to you, but My
3Father who is in the heavens.
Matt. 16
:18
16:18
And I
1also say to you that you are
2aPeter, and upon
3this brock I will
4cbuild My
5dchurch, and the
6egates of
fHades shall not prevail
gagainst it.
Matt. 16
:19
16:19
I will give to you the
1akeys of the
2kingdom of the heavens, and whatever you
3bbind on the earth shall
4have been bound in the heavens, and whatever you loose on the earth shall
4have been loosed in the heavens.

Matt. 16
:22
16:22
And Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying,
God be merciful to You, Lord! This shall by
1no means happen to You!
Matt. 16
:23
16:23
But He turned and said to Peter, Get behind Me,
1aSatan!
2You are a stumbling block to Me, for you are
3not setting your
bmind on the things of God, but on the things of men.
Matt. 16
:24
16:24
Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone wants to come after Me, let him
1deny 2himself and take up his
3across and
4follow Me.
Matt. 16
:25
16:25
For whoever wants to save his
asoul-life shall
1lose it; but whoever
2loses his soul-life for My sake shall find it.
Matt. 16
:26
16:26
For what shall a man be profited if he gains the whole world, but forfeits his
1soul-life? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul-life?
Matt. 16
:27
16:27
1For the
aSon of Man is to
bcome in the
cglory of His Father with His
dangels, and then He will
2erepay each man according to his doings.

1acoming in His kingdom.
