- Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God’s law.
- Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”
- You are altogether beautiful, my darling,
beautiful in every way. - No one can know a person’s thoughts except that person’s own spirit, and no one can know God’s thoughts except God’s own Spirit.
- No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.
- No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
- Don’t be concerned for your own good but for the good of others.
- And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, “God is tempting me.” God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else.
- This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all.
- Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
and there are no grapes on the vines;
even though the olive crop fails,
and the fields lie empty and barren;
even though the flocks die in the fields,
and the cattle barns are empty,
yet I will rejoice in the Lord!
I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! - When you make a promise to God, don’t delay in following through, for God takes no pleasure in fools. Keep all the promises you make to him.
- For no one can ever be made right with God by doing what the law commands. The law simply shows us how sinful we are.
- Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom.
Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.
Then you will have healing for your body
and strength for your bones. - Not at all! And you will perish, too, unless you repent of your sins and turn to God.
- But most of all, my brothers and sisters, never take an oath, by heaven or earth or anything else. Just say a simple yes or no, so that you will not sin and be condemned.
- No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
- In fact, according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified with blood. For without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness.
- That is what the Scriptures mean when they say,
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard,
and no mind has imagined
what God has prepared
for those who love him.” - Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord.
- The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.
- Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.
- I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them away from me, for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else. No one can snatch them from the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one.
- And I will forgive their wickedness,
and I will never again remember their sins. - “Don’t tear your clothing in your grief,
but tear your hearts instead.”
Return to the Lord your God,
for he is merciful and compassionate,
slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
He is eager to relent and not punish. - How great you are, O Sovereign Lord! There is no one like you. We have never even heard of another God like you!
