- If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
- Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.”
- For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil. - He reveals deep and hidden things;
he knows what lies in darkness,
and light dwells with him. - Blessed are you when people hate you,
when they exclude you and insult you
and reject your name as evil,
because of the Son of Man. - Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves.
- Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?
- For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
- For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
- Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
- Remember your Creator
in the days of your youth,
before the days of trouble come
and the years approach when you will say,
“I find no pleasure in them”. - Deceit is in the hearts of those who plot evil,
but those who promote peace have joy. - Do not turn to the right or the left;
keep your foot from evil. - Keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from telling lies. - The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.” Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.
- Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.
- Do not be like your ancestors, to whom the earlier prophets proclaimed: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Turn from your evil ways and your evil practices.’ But they would not listen or pay attention to me, declares the Lord.
- Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
- See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.
- You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
- All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.
- Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
- When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong.
- And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.
God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him.
