- The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable,
But the mouth of the wicked, what is perverted. - Only fear the Lord and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you.
- But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.
- By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming, and now it is already in the world.
- Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
- Do not be mismatched with unbelievers; for what do righteousness and lawlessness share together, or what does light have in common with darkness?
- Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord,
Who walks in His ways. - The one who keeps His commandments remains in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He remains in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.
- For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not another to lift him up!
- But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, to the extent that He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.
- So, having obtained help from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, stating nothing but what the Prophets and Moses said was going to take place, as to whether the Christ was to suffer, and whether, as first from the resurrection of the dead, He would proclaim light both to the Jewish people and to the Gentiles.
- For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you have shown toward His name, by having served and by still serving the saints.
- I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints.
- And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of people.”
- Praise the Lord!
Blessed is a person who fears the Lord,
Who greatly delights in His commandments. - Not that I speak from need, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.
- But He said to them, “Beware, and be on your guard against every form of greed; for not even when one is affluent does his life consist of his possessions.”
- But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for God does not see as man sees, since man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
- For I handed down to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.
- One who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor one who loves abundance with its income. This too is futility.
- Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is narrow and the way is constricted that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
- Because by the works of the Law none of mankind will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes knowledge of sin.
- And on that day you will say,
“Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name.
Make known His deeds among the peoples;
Make them remember that His name is exalted.” - For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.
- Because Your favor is better than life,
My lips will praise You.
So I will bless You as long as I live;
I will lift up my hands in Your name.
