Gift of I AM (Matthew) 7

1 Judge not, that you might not be judged.

2 For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with what measure you deal out, it shall be measured to you again.

3 And why do you behold the speck that is in your brother's eye, but consider not the beam that is in your own eye?

4 Or how will you say to your brother: Let me pull the speck out of your eye; when there is a beam in your own eye?

5 You hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of your own eye; then you will see clearly to cast out the speck out of your brother's eye.

6 Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and attack you.

7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you:

8 For everyone that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.

9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son asks bread, will he give him a stone?

10 Or, if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent?

11 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him?

12 Therefore in all things whatsoever you would like men to do to you, do those things to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

13 Enter in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and there are many which go in there:

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads to life, and few find it.

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

16 You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

19 Every tree that does not bring forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

20 Therefore by their fruits you shall know them.

21 Not everyone that said to me: Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven.

22 Many will say to me in that day: Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works?

23 But will I profess to them: I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.

24 Therefore whosoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; it did not fall: for it was founded upon a rock.

26 And every one that hears these sayings of mine, and does not do them, shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand:

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

28 And it came to pass, when Yahweh is Our Salvation (Yeshua) had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:

29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
