Matthew
5:38-41
|
You
have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.' But I
tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right
cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone wants to sue
you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. If someone
forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
|
|
Matthew
5:42
|
Give
to him who asks of you, and do not turn away from him who wants to borrow
from you.
|
|
Matthew
5:43-48
|
You
have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that
you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the
evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. For
if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax
collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what
are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect,
therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect

7:7

Ask
and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be
opened unto you.

And
He said to him, “‘YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND

‘YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.

And
if any place will not welcome you or listen to you, leave that place and
shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.

Mark
12:28-31 (New International Version) The Greatest
Commandment
28One of the teachers of the law came and heard them
debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him,
"Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"
29"The most important one," answered Jesus,
"is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30Love
the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all
your mind and with all your strength.' 31The second is this: 'Love
your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than
these."

|

16:16

He
who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has
disbelieved shall be condemned.

Luke
6:32-34
|
"If
you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners
love those who love them. "If you do good to those who do good
to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
"If you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is
that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same
amount.
|
|
Luke
6:35
|
"But
love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and
your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He
Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men.

Luke 9:5
Luke
9:26
|
If
people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet
as a testimony against them.
For
whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him
when He comes in His glory, and the glory of the Father and of the holy
angels
|
|
Luke
10:27

where your treasure is there will your heart be also.
|
|
Luke
15:7
|
I
tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one
sinner who repents than over ninetynine righteous persons who do not need to
repent.
|
|
John
3:20
|
"For
God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever
believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life." For God did not send his Son into the world
to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned,
but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not
believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into
the world, but people 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 their deeds
will be exposed.
|
|
John
8:31-32
|
The
Truth Will Make You Free ] So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed
Him, " If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine;
and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
|
|
John
12:37-40
|
Even after Jesus had
performed so many signs in their presence, they still would not believe in
him. This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet:
“Lord, who has believed
our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
For this reason they
could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere:
“He has blinded their
eyes and hardened their hearts, so they can neither see with their eyes, nor
understand with their hearts, nor turn — and I would heal them.”
|
|
John
14:6
|
"Jesus
said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the
Father, but through Me.'"
|
|
John
14:21
|
"
He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who
loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose
Myself to him."
|
|
Acts
4:10-12
|
“then
know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus
Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead,
that this man stands before you healed. Salvation is found in no one else,
for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be
saved.”
|
|
Acts
17:25
|
And
He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything. Rather, He himself
gives everyone life and breath and everything else.

|
Romans
5:8
|
But
God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.
|
|
Romans
6:3-5
|
We
were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was
raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness
of life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall
certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.
|
|
Romans
6:23
|
For
the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ
Jesus our Lord.
|
|
Romans
8:1
|
There
is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus.
|
|
Romans
8:32
|
He
who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not
also, along with him, graciously give us all things?
|
|
Romans
13:1-2
|
Everyone
must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority
except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been
established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority
is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring
judgment on themselves.

arrogant,

Love
never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if
there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away.

Corinthians 13:13

But
now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Do
not be bound together with unbelievers; for what (3)
partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light
with darkness?

5:14

Ephesians
2:4-10
|
But
because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive
with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions--it is by grace you have
been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with
him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming
ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his
kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been
saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of
God-- not by works, so that no-one can boast. For we are God's
workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in
advance for us to do.

2 Thesolonians 2:11-12

11
For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the
lie 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but
have delighted in wickedness.

For
even when we were with you, this we commanded you, If any will not work,
neither let him eat. 2 Thessalonians 3:10

1 Timothy 5:8
|
Anyone
who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own
household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
|
|
1 Timothy 5:22
|
Do not
be hasty in the laying on of hands, and do not share in the sins of others.
Keep yourself pure.
|
|
1
Timothy 6:9-11
|
But
those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a snare and many foolish
and harmful desires which plunge men into ruin and destruction.
For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for
it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many
griefs. But flee from these things, you man of God, and pursue
righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance and gentleness.
|

2
Timothy 3:16-17
|
All
Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for
correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be
adequate, equipped for every good work.
|
|
2
Timothy 4:3-4
|
For
the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to
have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in
accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth
and will turn aside to myths.
|
|
Hebrews 3:7-9
|
So, as the Holy
Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you
did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness, where your ancestors
tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did.
|
|
Hebrews 6:4-6
|
It is impossible for
those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who
have shared in the Holy Spirit, who
have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age
and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance. To their loss
they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to
public disgrace.
|
|
Hebrews
11:1-3
|
Now
faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not
seen.

James
2:8
|
If,
however, you are fulfilling the royal law according to the Scripture,
"YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF," you are doing
well.
|
|
James
2:26
|
For
just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is
dead.
|
|
James
4:17
|
Therefore,
to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin.
