But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Ep 44My Testimony: Psalm 37:23-24 (Part 6)
EThe steps of a man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the Lord upholds his hand.
Ep 43My Testimony: Luke 6:41-42 (Part 5)
"Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye', when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye."
Ep 42My Testimony: Psalm 139:7-8 (Part 4)
EWhere shall I go to from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence? If I ascend to heaven, you are there! I I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
Ep 41My Testimony: Romans 12:2 (Part 3)
EDo not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Ep 40My Testimony: 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (Part 2)
EOr do you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, who you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
Ep 39My Testimony: Matthew 18:1-6 (Part 1)
EAt that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever receives on such child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and be drowned in the depth of the sea."
