Sharing Scripture (3)

[CindyisHis]

John 8:21 Then Jesus said to them(Pharisees) again, “I am going away, and you will seek Me, and will die in your sin. Where I go you cannot come.”
22 So the Jews said, “Will He kill Himself, because He says, ‘Where I go you cannot come’?”
23 And He said to them, “You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

One is literally world's apart until he is born again, and therefore his understanding is darkened. People will die in their sin until they see the light. They cannot go where He is now, nor even get a clue, until their eyes are opened.

Rev 20:13-15

The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.

Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

sober words indeed, yet true

Deuteronomy 10:12-13 . . .
What does the LORD your GOD Require of you?
HE requires you to fear HIM, to live according
to HIS Will, to Love and Worship HIM with all
your Heart and Soul, and to Obey the LORD’s
Commands and Laws that I am giving you
today for your own Good.

Philippians 2:12 . . .
Dearest friends, you were always so careful
to follow my instructions when I was with you.
And now that I am away you must be even
more careful to put into Action GOD’s Saving
Work in your lives,

1 Peter 5:7 (Amplified Bible)


VERSE 7: (Amp)
7Casting the [a]whole of your care [all your anxieties,
all your worries, all your concerns, [b]once and for all]
on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares
about you [c]watchfully.(A)

VERSE 5: (Amp)
5Likewise, you who are younger and of lesser rank,
be subject to the elders (the ministers and spiritual
guides of the church)--[giving them due respect and
yielding to their counsel]. Clothe (apron) yourselves,
all of you, with humility [as the garb of a servant,
[b]so that its covering cannot possibly be stripped
from you, with freedom from pride and arrogance]
toward one another. For God sets Himself against
the proud (the insolent, the overbearing, the disdainful,
the presumptuous, the boastful)--[and He opposes,
frustrates, and defeats them], but gives grace
(favor, blessing) to the humble.(A)

VERSE 5: (NKJV)
5 Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to
your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one
another, and be clothed with humility, for

“ God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.”[b]

Ezra and Nehemiah reading the Law:

Then he read from it in the open square that was in front of the Water Gate from morning until midday, before the men and women and those who could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive to the Book of the Law.

And Nehemiah, who was governor, Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, "This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn or weep." For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the Law.

Nehemiah 8:3;9

Romans 8:18-25-- NLT. . .
What we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory
he will give us later. For all creation is waiting eagerly
for that future day when God will reveal who his
children really are. Against its will, everything on earth
was subjected to God’s curse. All creation anticipates
the day when it will join God’s children in glorious
freedom from death and decay. For we know that all
creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth
right up to the present time. And even we Christians,
although we have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste
of future glory, also groan to be released from pain and
suffering. We, too, wait anxiously for that day when
God will give us our full rights as his children, including
the new bodies he has promised us. Now that we are
saved, we eagerly look forward to this freedom.
For if you already have something, you don’t need to
hope for it. But if we look forward to something we
don’t have yet, we must wait patiently and confidently.

1 Co 7:29-31

But this I say, brethren, the time is short, so that from now on even those who have wives should be as those who have none,

those who weep as though they did not weep, those who rejoice as though they did not rejoice, those who buy as though they did not posess,

and those who use this world as not misusing it. For the form of this world is passing away.

A psalm of David.

1 The Lord is my shepherd;
I have everything I need.
2 He lets me rest in green meadows;
he leads me beside peaceful streams.
3 He renews my strength.
He guides me along right paths,
bringing honor to his name.
4 Even when I walk
through the dark valley of death,*
I will not be afraid,
for you are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff
protect and comfort me.
5 You prepare a feast for me
in the presence of my enemies.
You welcome me as a guest,
anointing my head with oil.
My cup overflows with blessings.
6 Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will live in the house of the Lord forever.
(Psalm 23:1-6)

The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death." - Isaiah 57:1-2 NIV

They are Innumerable! I can’t even count them.


GOD’s Blessings are too many to count or even mention.
HIS Blessings come to us every day,
in every conceivable form.

"For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." (Matt. 11:30)

 

[pilgrimgal]

Luke.7, 37-38 And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment,
and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 . . .
Love is patient and kind.
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
Love does not demand its own way.
Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged.
It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and
endures through every circumstance.


An attitude of love sums up many aspects of a good attitude toward others.
