- If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.
- For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died; and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.
- ‘You shall not murder,’ ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
- So rend your heart, and not your garments;
Return to the Lord your God,
For He is gracious and merciful,
Slow to anger, and of great kindness;
And He relents from doing harm. - Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us,
But to Your name give glory,
Because of Your mercy,
Because of Your truth. - For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.
- Praise the Lord!
Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,
Who delights greatly in His commandments. - For they did not gain possession of the land by their own sword,
Nor did their own arm save them;
But it was Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your countenance,
Because You favored them. - And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
- Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
- Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;
For You render to each one according to his work.
A fool despises his father’s instruction,
But he who receives correction is prudent. All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.Next verse!With image
