The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.

To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

But the Lord has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of his own inheritance, as you are this day.

Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life; he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.

May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.

For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

He said to them, "Because of your little faith.

And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

Then the Lord said, "I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters. I know their sufferings, ..."

See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled.

For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen.

Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, who formed you from the womb: "I am the Lord, who made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the eart

I will say to the Lord, "My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."

"Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might."

An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.

Show hospitality to one another without grumbling.

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God."

And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.

"For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost."

Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.

Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath. These are a shadow of the things to come,

Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.

That according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being.

God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?

Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope.
