Matthew 7:13 in Context — Matthew 7

11 Ora, se vós, sendo maus, sabeis dar bons presentes a vossos filhos, quanto mais o vosso Pai, que está nos céus, dará coisas boas aos que lhe pedirem!

12 Portanto tudo o que quiserdes que os outros vos façam, fazei-lhes vós também assim; porque esta é a Lei e os Profetas.

13 Entrai pela porta estreita; porque larga é a porta, e espaçoso o caminho que leva à perdição; e muitos são os que por ela entram.

14 Porque estreita é a porta, e apertado o caminho que leva à vida; e são poucos os que a acham.

15 Tende cuidado, porém, com os falsos profetas, que vêm a vós com roupa de ovelhas, mas por dentro são lobos vorazes.
