- At the appointed time, while we were still helpless, Christ died for the ungodly.
- For everything there is a season,
and a time for every activity under heaven. - Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that at the proper time he may exalt you.
- The time of fulfillment has arrived, and the kingdom of God is close at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.
- Therefore, take care to live as intelligent people, and do not be like those who are senseless. Make the most of the present time, for this is a wicked age.
- From that day forward Jesus began to proclaim the message: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is close at hand.”
- So Christ, having been offered once to take away the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to bring salvation to those who are eagerly waiting for him.
- A true friend is one at all times,
and a brother is born to render help in time of need. - He has made everything suitable for its time, and he has given men a sense of past and future, but they never have the slightest comprehension of what God has wrought from beginning to end.
- Let us never grow weary in doing what is right, for if we do not give up, we will reap our harvest in due time.
- Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace when we are in need of help.
- Jesus then said,
“I will remain with you
only for a short time longer,
and then I shall return
to him who sent me.” - Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by mutual consent for a specified time so as to devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan may not tempt you by taking advantage of your lack of self-control.
- A fool gives free rein to his anger,
but a wise man bides his time and calms it. - You shall obey his statutes and the commandments that I give you today, so that all may go well with you and your children after you, and that you may live long in the land that the Lord, your God, has given you for all time.
- I consider that the sufferings we presently endure are not worth comparing with the glory to be revealed in us.
- While they were there, the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
- The Lord is good,
an unfailing refuge in a time of distress.
He takes care of those who place their trust in him. - The Lord will protect you against all evil;
he will watch over your life.
The Lord will watch over your coming and your going
both now and forevermore. - At the time that discipline is received, it always seems painful rather than pleasant, but afterward it yields a harvest of peace and uprightness to those who have been trained by it.
- No one has ever seen God.
It is the only Son, God,
who is at the Father’s side,
who has made him known. - When they arrest you and bring you to trial, do not be concerned beforehand about what you are to say. Simply say whatever is given to you when that time comes, for it will not be you who speak but the Holy Spirit.
- No one has ever seen God,
but if we love one another,
God abides in us,
and his love is made complete in us. - For they said to you, “In the final age there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly passions.” It is these people who create divisions, who follow their natural instincts and do not possess the Spirit.
- Conduct yourselves wisely toward outsiders, making the most of your opportunity. Let your speech always be gracious and seasoned with wisdom, so that you will know how to respond properly to all.
When I am terrified,
I place my trust in you.So today acknowledge it and take it to heart that the Lord is God in the heavens above and on the earth below. There is no other.
