Matthew 7:11
Compare all
9 aOr what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?  
10 Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent?
11 If you then, abeing evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!  
12 Therefore, awhatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for bthis is the Law and the Prophets.  

The Narrow Way

13 a“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.  
14 Because narrow is the gate and2 difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

Matthew 7:11

Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil. Men who have the natural affection of parents, even though sinful men, will not do such things. Whoever believes that the term "Father", as applied to God, is more than a figure of speech, must believe in prayer. Give good gifts. Luke 11:13, in the parallel passage, says, instead of "good gifts", "the Holy Spirit", as though this is heaven's greatest blessing.
