It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

I say, I've fed his sheep. Now I'll tend to them, ... tend to my sheep.

For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and everyone who humbles himself will be exalted.

Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.

For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?
