1er des 4 Évangiles (Matthieu 10..)

Be still, my soul; the Lord is on thy side*.

Listen to Him, for He shall be thy guide..
________________

"Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul.
Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.

And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

Whoever acknowledges Me before others,
I will also acknowledge before My Father in heaven.

But whoever disowns Me before others,
I will disown before My Father in heaven.

Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth.
I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

For I have come to turn
'a man against his father,
a daughter against her mother,
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law
- a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.'

Anyone who loves their father or mother more than Me
is not worthy of Me
;
anyone who loves their son or daughter more than Me
is not worthy of Me.

Whoever does not take up their cross and follow Me
is not worthy of Me
.

Whoever finds their life will lose it,
and whoever loses their life for My sake will find it.
"

MATTHEW 10:28-39
