1 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came , and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven .
2 G1161 He answered and said unto them , When it is evening , ye say , It will be fair weather : for the sky is red .
3 And in the morning , It will be foul weather to day : for the sky is red and lowring . O ye hypocrites , ye can discern the face of the sky ; but can ye not discern the signs of the times ?
4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign ; and there shall no sign be given unto it , but the sign of the prophet Jonas . And he left them , and departed .
5 And when his disciples were come to the other side , they had forgotten to take bread .
6 Then Jesus said unto them , Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees .
7 And they reasoned among themselves , saying , It is because we have taken no bread .
8 Which when Jesus perceived , he said unto them , O ye of little faith , why reason ye among yourselves , because ye have brought no bread ?
9 Do ye not yet understand , neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand , and how many baskets ye took up ?
10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand , and how many baskets ye took up ?
11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread , that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees ?
12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread , but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees .
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi , he asked his disciples , saying , Whom do men say that I the Son of man am ?
14 And they said , Some say that thou art John the Baptist : some , Elias ; and others , Jeremias , or one of the prophets .
15 He saith unto them , But whom say ye that I am ?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said , Thou art the Christ , the Son of the living God .
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him , Blessed art thou , Simon Barjona : for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee , but my Father which is in heaven .
18 And I say also unto thee , That thou art Peter , and upon this rock I will build my church ; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it .
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven : and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven : and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven .
20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ .
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples , how that he must go unto Jerusalem , and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes , and be killed , and be raised again the third day .
22 Then Peter took him , and began to rebuke him , saying , Be it far from thee , Lord : this shall not be unto thee .
23 But he turned , and said unto Peter , Get thee behind me , Satan : thou art an offence unto me : for thou savourest not the things that be of God , but those that be of men .
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples , If any man will come after me , let him deny himself , and take up his cross , and follow me .
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it : and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it .
26 For what is a man profited , if he shall gain the whole world , and lose his own soul ? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul ?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels ; and then he shall reward every man according to his works .
28 Verily I say unto you , There be some standing here , which shall not taste of death , till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom .
