What's That Scripture???

[cubinity]

The rules are simple:
Complete and identify the verse started in the preceding post.
Then, in that same post, partially quote a verse of your choosing.

Here's an example:
Post #1 reads, "In the beginning..."

Post #2 reads, "...you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands." - Ps. 102:25

"...loved the world..."

As you may have realized, there are several verses that begin with "In the beginning." Part of the fun is seeing if the next poster will identify the same verse you had in mind!

Also, the quote doesn't have to be the beginning of the verse, but can be a few words from anywhere within it.

I also think subtle differences in translations are also going to add to the fun!

To make it fitting in this forum, I'll offer 100 blessings for every tenth post, starting with post #10!!!!

I'll get us started with something easy, and we'll see where it takes us...

"...Christ has set us free..."

I think this is the verse in mind but from the KJV

Gal 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

My verse will be

"HOLY, HOLY, HOLY is [blank], THE ALMIGHTY, WHO WAS AND WHO IS AND WHO IS TO COME."

Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under its wings. Day and night they never stop saying: “‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,’ who was, and is, and is to come.” - Rev. 4:8

"...it is no longer good for anything..."

Mat 5:13 "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.

"...and the ending, saith the Lord, which..."

"I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty." - Rev. 1:8

"...no difference between us and them..."
