Pharisees and Sadducees Seek a Sign
1   The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and testing him desired that he would show them a sign from heaven.
2   He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, you say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3   And in the morning, It will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and overcast. O you hypocrites, you can discern the appearance of the sky; but can you not discern the signs of the times?
4   A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonah. And he left them, and departed.

Leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees
5   And when his disciples came to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6   Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
7   And  they  reasoned  among  themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
8   Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O you of little faith, why reason you among yourselves,   because   you   have   brought   no bread?
9   Do you not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
10   Neither  the  seven  loaves  of  the  four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
11   How is it that you do not understand that I spoke   not to you concerning bread, that you should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12   Then understood they that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

Peter’s Confession at Caesarea Philippi
13   When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea   Philippi,   he   asked   his   disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14   And they said, Some say that you are John the Baptist: some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
15   He said unto them, But whom say you that I am?
16   And Simon Peter answered, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17   And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed are you, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood  has  not  revealed  it  unto  you,  but  my Father who is in heaven.
18   And I say also unto you, That you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19   And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be what has been bound in heaven:  and  whatsoever  you  shall  loose  on earth shall be what has been loosed in heaven.
20   Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection
21   From that time forth began Jesus to show unto  his  disciples,  how that  he  must  go  unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22   Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from you, Lord: this shall not be unto you.
23   But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get you behind me, Satan: you are an offense unto me: for you consider not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

A Disciple must Deny Himself
24   Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25   For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26   For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27   For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

The Transfiguration
28   Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, who shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
