75 Jesus said, "Many are waiting at the door, but those who are one will enter the bridal chamber." (THO) 76 Jesus said, "The Father's kingdom can be compared to a merchant with merchandise who found a pearl. The merchant was wise; they sold their merchandise and bought that single pearl for themselves. "You, too, look for the treasure that doesn't perish but endures, where no moths come to eat and no worms destroy." (THO) 77 Jesus said, "I'm the light that's over all. I am the All. The All has come from me and unfolds toward me. "Split a log; I'm there. Lift the stone, and you'll find me there." (THO) 78 Jesus said, "What did you go out into the desert to see? A reed shaken by the wind? A [person] wearing fancy clothes, [like your] rulers and powerful people? They (wear) fancy [clothes], but can't know the truth." (THO) 79 A woman in the crowd said to him, "Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts that nourished you." He said to [her], "Blessed are those who have listened to the message of the Father and kept it, because there will be days when you'll say, 'Blessed is the womb that didn't conceive and the breasts that haven't given milk.'" (THO) 80 Jesus said, "Whoever has known the world has found the body; but whoever has found the body, of them the world isn't worthy." (THO) 81 Jesus said, "Whoever has become rich should become a ruler, and whoever has power should renounce it." (THO) 82 Jesus said, "Whoever is near me is near the fire, and whoever is far from me is far from the kingdom." (THO) 83 Jesus said, "Images are revealed to people, but the light within them is hidden in the image of the Father's light. He'll be revealed, but his image will be hidden by his light." (THO) 84 Jesus said, "When you see your likeness, you rejoice. But when you see your images that came into being before you did – which don't die, and aren't revealed – how much you'll have to bear!" (THO) 85 Jesus said, "Adam came into being from a great power and great wealth, but he didn't become worthy of you. If he had been worthy, [he wouldn't have tasted] death." (THO)
