Bible Verses about 'Rather'

  • How much better to get wisdom than gold,
    and good judgment than silver!
  • A single day in your courts
    is better than a thousand anywhere else!
    I would rather be a gatekeeper in the house of my God
    than live the good life in the homes of the wicked.
  • Choose a good reputation over great riches;
    being held in high esteem is better than silver or gold.
  • Jesus replied, “But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice.”
  • Give me an eagerness for your laws
    rather than a love for money!
  • Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot touch your soul. Fear only God, who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
  • Do you think that I like to see wicked people die? says the Sovereign Lord. Of course not! I want them to turn from their wicked ways and live.
  • So let’s stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall.
  • Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
    All glory to him, both now and forever! Amen.
  • Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, expose them.
    It is shameful even to talk about the things that ungodly people do in secret.
  • Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.
  • So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.
  • But don’t rejoice because evil spirits obey you; rejoice because your names are registered in heaven.
  • Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ.
  • I appeal to you, dear brothers and sisters, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, to live in harmony with each other. Let there be no divisions in the church. Rather, be of one mind, united in thought and purpose.
  • Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.
  • Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say,
    “I will take revenge;
    I will pay them back,”
    says the Lord.
  • No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening—it’s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way.
  • Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.
  • Yes, he humbled you by letting you go hungry and then feeding you with manna, a food previously unknown to you and your ancestors. He did it to teach you that people do not live by bread alone; rather, we live by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.
  • Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church.
  • For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.
  • Instead, clothe yourself with the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. And don’t let yourself think about ways to indulge your evil desires.
  • Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.
  • They traded the truth about God for a lie. So they worshiped and served the things God created instead of the Creator himself, who is worthy of eternal praise! Amen. That is why God abandoned them to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other. And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this sin, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved. Since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God, he abandoned them to their foolish thinking and let them do things that should never be done.

So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”
