the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is clear, enlightening the eyes;

the fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever;

the ordinances of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. Psalm 19:7-9.

The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the thought of his heart to all generations. Amen

The New Life In Christ: …and his name will be on there (his servants) on there foreheads.

Whoever claims to love in him must walk as Jesus did. 1 John 1:6.

Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.

If anyone to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him you’re your house or welcome him. 2John 1:9-10.

Blessed is the one who reads the words of his prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near. Revelation 1:3. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Have nothing to do with them. 2 Timothy.

They are kind of who worm their way into homes and gain control over-wicked women, who are leaded down loaded desires… but never able to acknowledge acknowledging the truth… 2Timothy 3:6.

But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone. 2Timothy 3:9.

For the time come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.  They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 2Timothy 4:3-4.

All Scriptures is God-breathed and for teaching, and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training  in the righteousness, so that the  man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good word. 2Timothy 4: 3-4. Amen.

.…and so I make you despised and abased before all the people, in as much as you have not kept my ways but have shown partiality in your instruction. Malachi 2:9.

You have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet you say, “How have we wearied him?” By saying, “All who do evil are good in the sight of the LORD, and he delights in them.” Or by asking, “Where is the God of justice?” Malachi 2:17.

Then once more you shall see the difference between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve him. Malachi 3:18. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs, but love builds up. 1Corinthians 8:1.

But not everyone knows this. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat each food they think of it as having been sacrificed to an idol, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled.

But food does not bring is near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.

Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak.

So this weak brother, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge. When you sin against your brothers in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. 1Corinthians 8:7-9 &  8:11-12. Amen.

And he said to humankind, ‘Truly, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.’” Job 28:28. Amen.

Therefore thus says the LORD…concerning the shepherds who shepherd my people: It is who have driven them away, and you have not attended to them. So I will attend to you for your evil doings, says the LORD. Then I myself will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the lands where I have driven them, and will bring them back to their fold, and they shall be fruitful and multiply. I will raise up shepherds over them who will shepherd them, and they shall not fear any longer, or be dismayed, nor shall any be missing, says the LORD. Jeremiah 23:1-4.

Both prophet and priest are ungodly; even in my house I have found their wickedness, says the LORD. Jeremiah 23:11.

Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it.

 Do not say to your neighbor, “Go, and come again tomorrow I will give it”-when you have it with you.

Do not plan harm against your neighbor who lives trustingly beside you. Proverbs 3:27-29.

Some friends play at friendship but a true friend sticks closes than one’s nearest kin. Proverbs 18:24.

For human ways are under the eyes of the LORD, and he examines all their paths. Proverbs 5:21. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, men will praise God… 2 Corinthians 9:13.

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that an all things at all at times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. As it is written: :He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever.” 2Corinthians 9:8-9.

 Amen.

The New Life In Christ: We live by faith not, by sight. 2Corinthians 5:7

And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to the. What was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

…When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began it to give them. Then their eyes were opened and they recognize him, and he disappeared from their sight.

They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”

…They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as I have.”

…And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement…He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you; Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the law of Moses, and the Prophets and the Psalms.”

Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. Luke 24:28-45. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: As a father has compassion for his children so that LORD has compassion for those who fear him. Psalm 103:13.

The LORD works vindication and justice for all who are oppressed. Psalm 103:6.

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.

He will not always accuse, nor will he keep his anger forever. He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay as according to our iniquities.

For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;

As far as the east is from the west, so far he removes our transgressions from us. Psalm 103:8-12.

The New Life In Christ: “Is it right for you to be angry?” Jonah 4:4.

When God saw what they did, how they turned from their evil ways, God changed his mind about the calamity that he had said he would bring upon them; and he did not do it. But this was very displeasing to Jonah and he became angry…Jonah 4:10.

The LORD God appointed a bush, and made it come up over Jonah, to give shade over his head, to save him from his discomfort; so Jonah was very happy about the bush. But when dawn came up the next day, God appointed a worm that attacked the bush, so that it withered. When the sun rose, God prepared a sultry east wind, and the sun beat down on the head of Jonah so that he was faint and asked that he might die. He said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”

But God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the bush?” And he said, “Yes, angry enough to die.” Then the LORD said. “You are concerned about the bush, for which you did not labor and which you did not grow; it came into being in a night and perished in a night. And should I not be concerned about Nineveh, that great city, in which there are  more than hundred and twenty thousands persons who do not know their right hand from their left, and also many animals?”. Jonah 4:6-11. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.” 2Corinthians 4:13.

For I hear many whispering: “Terror is all around! Denounce him! Let us denounce him!” All my close friends are watching for me to stumble.

“Perhaps he can be enticed, and we can prevail against him, and take our revenge on him.”

But the Lord is with me like a dread warrior; therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they will not prevail. They will be greatly shamed, for they will not succeed. Their eternal dishonor will never be forgotten.

O LORD of hosts, you test the righteous, you see the heart and the mind; let me see your retribution upon them, for to you I have committed my cause. Jeremiah 20:10-12.

My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants. Psalm 92:11. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Have salt in yourselves…Mark 9:50.

If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.

And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell… Mark 9:43-47.

A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks the cup. 1Corinthians 11:28. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Causing to Sin.

“Whoever believes in me, as the Scriptures has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.” John 7:38.

And if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone tied around his neck. Mark 9:42.

I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is throwing you into confusion will pay the penalty, whoever he may be. Galatians 5:10.

You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. These are the Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life. John 7:38. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth.) Ephesians 5:8-9.

And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:9-11.

Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Philippians 1:27.

…find out what pleases the Lord. Ephesians 5:10.

…understand what the Lord’s will is. Ephesians 5:17. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you.

If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ love those who love them. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ lend to ‘sinners,’ expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most high, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Luke 6:27-35. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth.) Ephesians 5:8-9.

And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ to the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:9-11.

Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Philippians 1:27.

…find out what pleases the Lord. Ephesians 5:10.

…understand what the Lord’s will is. Ephesians 5:17. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God. 1Samuel 30:6.

David was in great danger; for the people spoke of stoning him, because all the people were bitter in spirit for their sons and daughters…

David inquired of the LORD, “Shall I pursue this band? Shall I overtake them? He answered him, “Pursue; for you shall surely overtake and shall surely rescue.”

…David attacked them from twilight until the evening of the next day…

…David brought back evening.

Then all the corrupt and worthless fellows among the men who had gone with David said, “Because they did not go with us, we will not give them any of the spoil that we have recovered, except the each man may take his wife and children, and leave.”

But David said, “You shall not do so, my brothers, with what the LORD has given us…

For the share of the one who goes down into the battle shall be the same as the share of the one who stays by the baggage; they shall share alike. 1Samuel 30: 6-24. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” Romans 4:22.

Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of stones God can raise up children for Abraham. Luke 3:8.

If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about-but not before God. What does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Romans 4:2-4.

…being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.

This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” The words “it was credited to him” were written not for him alone, but also for us, to whom who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification. Romans 4:21-24. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: The angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified…He has risen…go quickly and tell his disciples’ ‘He has risen from dead…’ Matthew 28:5-8.

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.

…His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men. The angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified… He has risen…go quickly and tell his disciples’ ‘He has risen from dead…’

So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him.  Matthew 28:1-9.

Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee…When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.

Then Jesus came to them and said…teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Matthew 28:16-20. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: He (John) himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. John 1:8.

The true light that gives light to everyman coming into the world. John 1:9.

Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. John 1:12.

This is verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.” John 3:19-21.

Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty. John 6:35.

It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me. John 6:45. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: “Could you men not keep watch me for one hour?” Matthew 26:40.

Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray…and he began to sorrowful and troubled. Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.”

Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter. “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

He went away a second time and prayed, “My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.”

When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy. So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time, saying the same thing.

Then he returned to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise, let us go! Here comes my betrayer!” Matthew 26:36-46. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: Is it not written: “My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.” Mark 11:17.

…Jesus entered the temple area and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple to carry merchandise through the temple courts. Mark 11:15-16.

When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first.’ Luke 11:24-26.

Leave them; they are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will into a pit.” Matthew 15:14. Amen.

The New Life in Christ: The Lord GOD has given me the tongue of a teacher, that I may know how to sustain the weary with a word. Isaiah 50:4.

“You are my servant, I have chosen you and not cast you off”; do not fear, for I am with you, do not be afraid, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.

Yes, all who are incensed against you shall be ashamed and disgraced; those who strive against you shall be as nothing and shall perish.

You shall seek those who contend with you, but you shall not find them; those who war against you shall be as nothing at all.

For I, the LORD your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, “Do not fear, I will help you.” Isaiah 41:9-13.

…so that all may see and know, all may consider and understand, that the hand of the LORD has done this, the HOLY One of Israel created it. Isaiah 41:20. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: What we are is plain to God, and I hope it is also plain to your conscience. 2Corinthians 5:11.

Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. 2Corinthians 4:2.

As surely as the truth of Christ is in me… why? Because I do not love you! God knows I do! 2Corinthians 11:10-11.

Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ. Galatians 1:10. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: I am Jesus…whom you are persecuting. Acts 22:8.

In the past God over looked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. Acts 17:30.

…they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless-Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them. Romans 1:31.

“You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.” Acts 28:26. Amen.

The New Life In Christ: You have hoarded wealth in the last days. James 5:3.

No slave can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You can not serve both God and Money. Luke 16:13-15.

Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Luke 18:25.

For the love of money is a root of all kinds, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. 1Timothy 6:10.

Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer everyone. Colossians 4:6. Amen

  

The New Life In Christ: We had to speak the word of God to you first. Acts 13:46.

What I mean is this:  One of you says “I follow Paul”; another, I follow Apollos”; another, “I follow Cephas”, still another, “I follow Christ.”

Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized into the name of Paul?

…For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel-not with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power. 1Corinthians 1:12-17.

In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant we have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil. Hebrews 5:12-14.

…Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should. Ephesians 6:20. Amen.
