- Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.
- For “Whoever desires to love life
and see good days,
let him keep his tongue from evil
and his lips from speaking deceit;
let him turn away from evil and do good;
let him seek peace and pursue it.” - And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
- And if you say in your heart, ‘How may we know the word that the Lord has not spoken?’— when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word that the Lord has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You need not be afraid of him.
- If you turn back your foot from the Sabbath,
from doing your pleasure on my holy day,
and call the Sabbath a delight
and the holy day of the Lord honorable;
if you honor it, not going your own ways,
or seeking your own pleasure, or talking idly;
then you shall take delight in the Lord,
and I will make you ride on the heights of the earth;
I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father,
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken. - The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.
- The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
- Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
- The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
- For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.
- So Jesus answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.”
- Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus.
- Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
- You then, my child, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
- And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”
- Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
- There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.
- Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.
- Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”
- But Jesus on hearing this answered him, “Do not fear; only believe, and she will be well.”
- And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
- For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
- But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
- And every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
- If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?”The grass withers, the flower fades,
but the word of our God will stand forever.
