- And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
- How happy is the one whom God reproves;
therefore do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. - Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words.
- I did not shrink from doing anything helpful, proclaiming the message to you and teaching you publicly and from house to house.
- For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from fornication;
that each one of you know how to control your own body in holiness and honor,
not with lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God. - Those who say, “I love God,” and hate their brothers or sisters, are liars; for those who do not love a brother or sister whom they have seen, cannot love God whom they have not seen.
- Therefore you are great, O Lord God; for there is no one like you, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
- By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.
- “Ananias,” Peter asked, “why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the proceeds of the land? While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, were not the proceeds at your disposal? How is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You did not lie to us but to God!”
- God's love was revealed among us in this way: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through him.
- We know love by this, that he laid down his life for us—and we ought to lay down our lives for one another.
- Do not be mismatched with unbelievers. For what partnership is there between righteousness and lawlessness? Or what fellowship is there between light and darkness?
- Happy is everyone who fears the Lord,
who walks in his ways. - Pray then in this way:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven. - For God is not unjust; he will not overlook your work and the love that you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.
- For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more surely, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life.
- By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.
- Then Peter began to speak to them: “I truly understand that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.”
- See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
- Fine speech is not becoming to a fool;
still less is false speech to a ruler. - And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fish for people.”
- So teach us to count our days
that we may gain a wise heart. - Praise the Lord!
Happy are those who fear the Lord,
who greatly delight in his commandments. - Not that I am referring to being in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have.
- And he said to them, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one's life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.”
