notice the log that is in your own eye?

hearts?

than a prophet.
|
| Matt.13.10 |
Then the disciples came and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in
parables?"
|
| Matt.13.13 |
This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not
see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
|
| Matt.14.2 |
and he said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist, he has been
raised from the dead; that is why these powers are at work in him."
|
| Matt.14.31 |

|
| Matt.15.2 |

in your hearts?

who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"
|
| Mark.5.39 |
And when he had entered, he said to them, "Why do you make a tumult and
weep? The child is not dead but sleeping."
|

powers are at work in him."

alone.

need of it and will send it back here immediately.'"

say, `Why then did you not believe him?'

lama sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why hast thou
forsaken me?"
|
| Luke.1.43 |
And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to
me?
|
| Luke.2.48 |
And when they saw him they were astonished; and his mother said to him,
"Son, why have you treated us so? Behold, your father and I have been
looking for you anxiously."
|
| Luke.5.22 |
When Jesus perceived their questionings, he answered them, "Why do you
question in your hearts?
|
| Luke.5.30 |
And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples,
saying, "Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?"
|
| Luke.6.2 |

to do on the sabbath?"
|
| Luke.6.41 |

notice the log that is in your own eye?
|
| Luke.6.46 |

|
| Luke.8.47 |
And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and
falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why
she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.
|
| Luke.12.7 |
Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; you are of
more value than many sparrows.
|
| Luke.12.26 |
If then you are not able to do as small a thing as that, why are you
anxious about the rest?
|
| Luke.12.56 |
You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and
sky; but why do you not know how to interpret the present time?
|
| Luke.12.57 |
"And why do you not judge for yourselves what is right?
|
| Luke.13.7 |

should have collected it with interest?'
|
| Luke.19.31 |
If any one asks you, `Why are you untying it?' you shall say this, `The
Lord has need of it.'"

you untying the colt?"
|
| Luke.20.5 |
And they discussed it with one another, saying, "If we say, `From
heaven,' he will say, `Why did you not believe him?'
|
| Luke.22.46 |
and he said to them, "Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not
enter into temptation."
|
| Luke.23.22 |

in him no crime deserving death; I will therefore chastise him and

|
| Luke.24.38 |

rise in your hearts?
|
| John.1.25 |
They asked him, "Then why are you baptizing, if you are neither the
Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?"
|
| John.4.27 |
Just then his disciples came. They marveled that he was talking with a
woman, but none said, "What do you wish?" or, "Why are you talking with
her?"
|
| John.5.16 |
And this was why the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did this on the
sabbath.
|
| John.5.18 |
This was why the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not
only broke the sabbath but also called God his Father, making himself
equal with God.
|
| John.6.65 |
And he said, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless
it is granted him by the Father."
|

you seek to kill me?"

| John.8.47 |

them is that you are not of God."
|
| John.9.27 |

Why do you want to hear it again? Do you too want to become his
disciples?"
|
| John.9.30 |
The man answered, "Why, this is a marvel! You do not know where he
comes from, and yet he opened my eyes.
|
| John.10.20 |
Many of them said, "He has a demon, and he is mad; why listen to him?"
|
| John.12.5 |
"Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to
the poor?"
|
| John.12.18 |
The reason why the crowd went to meet him was that they heard he had
done this sign.
|
| John.13.11 |
For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, "You are not
all clean."
|
| John.13.28 |
Now no one at the table knew why he said this to him.
|
| John.13.37 |
Peter said to him, "Lord, why cannot I follow you now? I will lay down
my life for you."

Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have
carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him
away."
|
| Acts.1.11 |

Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way
as you saw him go into heaven."
|
| Acts.3.12 |

you wonder at this, or why do you stare at us, as though by our own
power or piety we had made him walk?

Holy Spirit, `Why did the Gentiles rage, and the peoples imagine vain
things?

why do you persecute me?"
|
| Acts.10.29 |

sent for me."
|
| Acts.11.3 |
saying, "Why did you go to uncircumcised men and eat with them?"
|
| Acts.14.15 |
"Men, why are you doing this? We also are men, of like nature with you,
and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to
a living God who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that
is in them.
|
| Acts.15.10 |
Now therefore why do you make trial of God by putting a yoke upon the
neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we have been able
to bear?
|
| Acts.19.32 |
Now some cried one thing, some another; for the assembly was in
confusion, and most of them did not know why they had come together.
|
| Acts.22.7 |
And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, `Saul, Saul,
why do you persecute me?'
|
| Acts.22.16 |
And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized, and wash away your sins,
calling on his name.'
|
| Acts.22.24 |
the tribune commanded him to be brought into the barracks, and ordered
him to be examined by scourging, to find out why they shouted thus
against him.
|
| Acts.22.30 |
But on the morrow, desiring to know the real reason why the Jews
accused him, he unbound him, and commanded the chief priests and all
the council to meet, and he brought Paul down and set him before them.
|
| Acts.26.8 |

|
| Acts.26.14 |

in the Hebrew language, `Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It hurts
you to kick against the goads.'
|
| Rom.3.7 |
But if through my falsehood God's truthfulness abounds to his glory,
why am I still being condemned as a sinner?
|
| Rom.3.8 |
And why not do evil that good may come?--as some people slanderously
charge us with saying. Their condemnation is just.
|
| Rom.4.16 |
That is why it depends on faith, in order that the promise may rest
on grace and be guaranteed to all his descendants-- not only to the
adherents of the law but also to those who share the faith of Abraham,
for he is the father of us all,
|
| Rom.4.22 |
That is why his faith was "reckoned to him as righteousness."
|
| Rom.5.7 |
Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man--though perhaps for a good
man one will dare even to die.
|
| Rom.9.19 |
You will say to me then, "Why does he still find fault? For who can
resist his will?"
|
| Rom.9.20 |
But who are you, a man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say
to its molder, "Why have you made me thus?"
|
| Rom.9.32 |
Why? Because they did not pursue it through faith, but as if it were
based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone,
|
| Rom.14.10 |
Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise
your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God;
|
| Rom.15.22 |
This is the reason why I have so often been hindered from coming to
you.
|
| 1Cor.4.7 |
For who sees anything different in you? What have you that you did not
receive? If then you received it, why do you boast as if it were not a
gift?
|
| 1Cor.6.4 |
If then you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who are
least esteemed by the church?
|
| 1Cor.6.7 |
To have lawsuits at all with one another is defeat for you. Why not
rather suffer wrong? Why not rather be defrauded?
|
| 1Cor.10.29 |
I mean his conscience, not yours--do not eat it.) For why should my
liberty be determined by another man's scruples?
|
| 1Cor.10.30 |
If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for
which I give thanks?
|
| 1Cor.11.10 |
That is why a woman ought to have a veil on her head, because of the
angels.
|
| 1Cor.11.30 |
That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died.
|
| 1Cor.15.29 |
Otherwise, what do people mean by being baptized on behalf of the dead?
If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their
behalf?
|
| 1Cor.15.30 |
Why am I in peril every hour?
|
| 2Cor.1.9 |
Why, we felt that we had received the sentence of death; but that was
to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead;
|
| 2Cor.1.20 |
For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why we utter
the Amen through him, to the glory of God.
|
| 2Cor.2.9 |
For this is why I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are
obedient in everything.
|
| 2Cor.11.11 |
And why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!
|
| Gal.3.19 |
Why then the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the
offspring should come to whom the promise had been made; and it was
ordained by angels through an intermediary.
|
| Gal.5.11 |
But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still
persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been
removed.
|
| Col.2.20 |
If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the universe, why
do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to
regulations,
|
| Titus.1.5 |
This is why I left you in Crete, that you might amend what was
defective, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you,
|
| Phlm.1.15 |
Perhaps this is why he was parted from you for a while, that you
might have him back for ever,
|
| Heb.2.11 |
For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified have all one origin.
That is why he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
|
| 1Pet.4.6 |
For this is why the gospel was preached even to the dead, that though
judged in the flesh like men, they might live in the spirit like God.
|
| 1John.3.1 |
See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called
children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know
us is that it did not know him.
|
| 1John.3.12 |
and not be like Cain who was of the evil one and murdered his brother.
And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his
brother's righteous.
|
| Rev.17.7 |
But the angel said to me, "Why marvel? I will tell you the mystery of
the woman, and of the beast with seven heads and ten horns that carries
her.
|
