Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

The Gifts and Calling of God
As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that …
Praying and Praising
And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

And the keeper of the prison awaking out of …
Obedience To The Truth
O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are ye so foolish? Having …

Beware: Those Who Would Offend One Who Believes In Jesus Christ
And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in Me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two …
