15 JUDGMENT & SALVATION (cont'd)
16 Heaven
Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
m0609-10
And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
m1007
And no man hath ascended into heaven, but he that descended out of heaven,
even the Son of man, which is in heaven.
j0313
Suffer the little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such
is the kingdom of heaven.
m1914/l1816/k1014
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my
Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you;
for I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may
be also. j1401-3
And then shall he send forth the angels, and shall gather together his elect
from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost
part of heaven.
k1327/m2431
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my
Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
for I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me
drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in; naked, and ye clothed me: I was
sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. m2534-6
[To one of the thieves at the crucifixion:] Verily I say unto thee, Today
shalt thou be with me in Paradise. l2343
17 Trees
By their fruits ye shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of
thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but the corrupt
tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit,
neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth
not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Therefore by their
fruits ye shall know them.
m0716-20/l0643-4
Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and
its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit.
m1233
Every plant which my heavenly Father planted not, shall be rooted up.
m1513
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that
beareth not fruit, he taketh it away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he
cleanseth it, that it may bear more fruit.
j1501-2
A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking
fruit thereon, and found none. And he said unto the vinedresser, Behold, these
three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down;
why doth it also cumber the ground? And he answering saith unto him, Lord, let
it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: and if it
bear fruit thenceforth, well; but if not, thou shalt cut it down.
l1306-9
Now from the fig tree learn her parable: when her branch is now become tender,
and putteth forth its leaves, ye know that the summer is nigh; even so ye
also, when ye see these things coming to pass, know ye that he is nigh, even
at the doors.
k1328-9/l2129-31/m2432-3
[To the fig tree which had no fruit out of season:] No man eat fruit from thee
henceforward for ever.
k1114/m2119
[Peter: Rabbi, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.]
Have faith in God. k1121-2/m2120-1
