- “Do I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die?” says the Lord God, “and not that he should turn from his ways and live?”
- 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.
- Who “will render to each one according to his deeds”
- There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.
- A good man deals graciously and lends;
He will guide his affairs with discretion. - For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it.
- And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.
- He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul,
But he who is careless of his ways will die. - For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
- Even a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace;
When he shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive. - Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. - A fool vents all his feelings,
But a wise man holds them back. - But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
- A fool’s wrath is known at once,
But a prudent man covers shame. - Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them.
- Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand.
- And so it was, because the midwives feared God, that He provided households for them.
- For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?
- As for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, and given him power to eat of it, to receive his heritage and rejoice in his labor—this is the gift of God.
- You will keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You. - Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled. - A fool has no delight in understanding,
But in expressing his own heart. - The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious,
But the lips of a fool shall swallow him up. - Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.
- Then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment.
