“You have heard that it was said, * ‘You shall not commit adultery;’* but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna. If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.                “It was also said, ‘Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,’* but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.                “Again you have heard that it was said to them of old time, ‘You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,’ but I tell you, don’t swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can’t make one hair white or black. But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.                “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’* But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also. Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.                “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor,* and hate your enemy.*’ But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven.

Quotations about miracles
   

{12:1} Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly.

{12:2} He killed James, the brother of John, with the sword.

{12:3} When he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.

{12:4} When he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of four soldiers each to guard him, intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.

{12:5} Peter therefore was kept in the prison, but constant prayer was made by the assembly to God for him.

{12:6} The same night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Guards in front of the door kept the prison.

{12:7} And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side, and woke him up, saying, "Stand up quickly!" His chains fell off from his hands.

{12:8} The angel said to him, "Get dressed and put on your sandals." He did so. He said to him, "Put on your cloak, and follow me."

{12:9} And he went out and followed him. He didn't know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.

{12:10} When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened to them by itself. They went out, and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.

{12:11} When Peter had come to himself, he said, "Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting."

{12:12} Thinking about that, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.

{12:13} When Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a maid named Rhoda came to answer.

{12:14} When she recognized Peter's voice, she didn't open the gate for joy, but ran in, and reported that Peter was standing in front of the gate.

{12:15} They said to her, "You are crazy!" But she insisted that it was so. They said, "It is his angel."

{12:16} But Peter continued knocking. When they had opened, they saw him, and were amazed.

{12:17} But he, beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. He said, "Tell these things to James, and to the brothers." Then he departed, and went to another place.

The Acts of the Apostles 12:1-17


{5:18} and laid hands on the apostles, and put them in public custody.

{5:19} But an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors by night, and brought them out, and said,

{5:20} "Go stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life."

{5:21} When they heard this, they entered into the temple about daybreak, and taught. But the high priest came, and those who were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

{5:22} But the officers who came didn't find them in the prison. They returned and reported,

{5:23} "We found the prison shut and locked, and the guards standing before the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside!"

{5:24} Now when the high priest, the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were very perplexed about them and what might become of this.

{5:25} One came and told them, "Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple, standing and teaching the people."

The Acts of the Apostles 5:18-25


There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.

Albert Einstein


Maccabaeus, perceiving the presence of the troops, and the various arms with which they were equipped, and the savageness of the elephants, holding up his hands to heaven called upon the Lord that works wonders, recognising that success comes not by arms, but that, according as the Lord shall judge, he gains the victory for those who are worthy.
