Today's Scripture
He Has Freely Given Us all Things - Even His Holy Spirit
In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation.
Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession - to the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 1:11-14 NIV
-------------
"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father. Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son; if you ask anything in my name, I will do it. "If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, to be with you for ever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him; you know him, for he dwells with you, and will be in you.
John 14:12-17 RSV
-------------
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.
Galatians 5:16-18 NASB
-------------
Thanks be unto God for His wonderful gift:
Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God is the object of our faith; the only faith that saves is faith in Him.

That's how it will be at the end of time.
Angels will come and separate the evil people from
the ones who have done right. Then those evil people
will be thrown into a flaming furnace, where they
will cry and grit their teeth in pain.
Matthew 13:49,50
-------------
If your eye causes you to sin, get rid of it.
You would be better off to go into God's kingdom
with only one eye than to have two eyes and be
thrown into hell.
The worms there never die,
and the fire never stops burning.
Mark 9:47,48
-------------
Be helpful to all who may have doubts.
Rescue any who need to be saved, as you would
rescue someone from a fire. Then with fear in
your own hearts, have mercy on everyone who
needs it. But hate even the clothes of those who
have been made dirty by their filthy deeds.
Jude 22,23
