"Whoever welcomes you welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me.

You can be sure that whoever gives even a drink of cold water to one of the least of these my followers because he is my follower, will certainly receive a reward."

and said, "I assure you that unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the Kingdom of heaven.

And whoever welcomes in my name one such child as this, welcomes me.

The King will reply, 'I tell you, whenever you did this for one of the least important of these followers of mine, you did it for me!'

and said to them, "Whoever welcomes this child in my name, welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me, also welcomes the one who sent me. For the one who is least among you all is the greatest."

Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever listens to you listens to me; whoever rejects you rejects me; and whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me."

so that all will honor the Son in the same way as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

The Father and I are one."

Jesus said in a loud voice, "Whoever believes in me believes not only in me but also in him who sent me.

Whoever sees me sees also him who sent me.

"Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. My Father will love those who love me; I too will love them and reveal myself to them."

Jesus answered him, "Those who love me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and my Father and I will come to them and live with them.

So then, whoever rejects this teaching is not rejecting a human being, but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.
