VOCATION OF PETER-THE UNCLEAN SPIRIT-CHRIST'S MISSION -THE SCRIBE-EARTHLY AFFECTIONS-THE STORM-LEGION.

LAUNCH out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.... Fear not: from henceforth thou shalt catch men.— - Come after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.

HOLD thy peace, and go out of him.

To other cities also I must preach the kingdom of God for therefore am I sent.-Let us go into the neighbouring towns and cities, that I may preach there also; for to this purpose am I

come.

THE foxes have holes, and the birds of the air nests; but the son of man hath not where to lay his head.

FOLLOW me.-Follow me, and let the dead bury their dead. Let the dead bury their dead; but go thou, and preach the kingdom of God. ... No man putting his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

LET us go over to the other side of the lake.... Where is your faith? ... Why are you fearful, O ye of little faith? ... Peace, be still.... Why are you fearful? have you not faith yet?

Go out of the man, thou unclean spirit.... What is thy name?... Go into thy house to thy

friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had mercy on thee.

BE of good heart, son, thy sins are forgiven thee.... Why do you think evil in your hearts? Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk? But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, I say to thee: Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.

FOLLOW me.

THEY that are in health need not a physician, but they that are ill. Go then and learn what this meaneth: "I will have mercy and not sacrifice." For I am not come to call the just, but sinners.

CAN you make the children of the bridegroom fast, whilst the bridegroom is with them?-As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them; and then they shall fast in those days. No man seweth a piece of raw cloth to an old garment; otherwise the new piecing taketh away from the old, and there is made a greater rent. And no man

putteth new wine into old bottles; otherwise the wine will burst the bottles, and both the wine will be spilled, and the bottles will be lost. But new wine must be put into new bottles. And no man drinking old, hath presently a mind to new; for he saith, The old is better.

WHO hath touched my garments? . . . Be of good heart, daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole.-Go in peace, and be thou whole of thy disease.

FEAR not; believe only, and she shall be safe. . . . Weep not; the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. Talitha cumi; damsel (I say to thee), arise.

...

Do you believe that I can do this unto you?... According to your faith, be it done unto you. ... See that no man know this.

WILT thou be made whole? ... Arise, take up thy bed, and walk.... Behold, thou art made whole sin no more, lest some worse thing happen to thee.

My Father worketh until now; and I work.... Amen, amen, I say unto you, the Son cannot do any thing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doth, these the

Son also doth in like manner. For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things which himself doth: and greater works than these will he show him, that you may wonder. For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth life: so the Son also giveth life to whom he will. For neither doth the Father judge any man, but hath given all judgment to the Son. That all men may honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He who honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father, who hath sent him. Amen, amen, I say unto you, that he who heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath life everlasting; and cometh not into judgment, but is passed from death to life. Amen, amen, I say unto you, that the hour cometh, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear shall live. For as the Father hath life in himself, so he hath given to the Son also to have life in himself: and he hath given him power to do judgment because he is the son of man. Wonder not at this; for the hour cometh, wherein all that are in the graves shall hear the voice of the Son of God. And they that have done good things shall come forth unto the resurrection of life; but they that have done evil, unto the resur

that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true. You sent to John, and he gave testimony to the truth. But I receive not testimony from man: but I say these things, that you may be saved. He was a burning and a shining light; and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light. But I have a greater testimony than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to perfect; the works themselves, which I do, give testimony of me, that the Father hath sent me. And the Father himself who hath sent me, hath given testimony of me: neither have you heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. And you have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him you believe not. Search the Scriptures,7 for you think in them to have life everlasting; and the same are they that give testimony of me. And you will not come to me that you may have life. I receive not glory from men. But I know you, that you have not the love of
