II Timothy 4:18, New American Standard

The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed, and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom; to Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Romans 8:31-34, King James Version

31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

James 4:4, New King James Version

Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be friend with the world makes himself an enemy of God.

I Corinthians 5:8-13, Amplified Version

8 Therefore, let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with leaven of vice and malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened [bread] of purity (nobility, honor) and sincerity and [unadulterated] truth.
9 I wrote you in my [previous] letter not to associate [closely and habitually] with unchaste (impure) people –
10 Not [meaning of course that you must] altogether shun the immoral people of this world, or the greedy graspers and cheats and thieves or idolaters, since otherwise you would need to get out of the world and human society altogether!
11 But now I write to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of [Christian] brother if he is known to be guilty of immorality or greed, or is an idolater [whose soul is devoted to any object that usurps the place of God], or is a person with t foul tongue [railing, abusing, reviling, slandering] or is a drunkard or swindler or a robber. [No] you must not so much as eat with such a person.
12 What [business] of mine is it and what right have I to judge outsiders? Is it not those inside [the church] upon whom you are to pass disciplinary judgement [passing censuring sentence on them as facts require]?

13 God alone sits in judgement on those who are outside. Drive out that wicked one from among you [expel him from your church].

James 4:6-8, New King James Version

6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says:
“God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.”

7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Proverbs 3:33-34, King James Version

33 The curse of the Lord is in the house of the wicked; but he blesseth the habitation of the just.
34 Surely he scorneth the scorners: hut he giveth grace unto the lowly.

Proverbs 3:11-12, King James Version

11 My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither by weary of his correction:
12 For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

Proverbs 3:1-7, King James Version

1 MY SON, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments;
2 For the length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4 So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

I Peter 3:3-4, New King James Version

3 Do not let your beauty be that outward adorning of arranging the hair, of wearing gold, or of putting on fine apparel;
4 but let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible ornament of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.

Acts 4:8-12, New King James Version

8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders of Israel:
9 “If we this day are judged for a good deed done to the helpless man, by what means he has been made well,
10 “let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole.
11 “This is the 'stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.'
12 “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

Psalm 118:22-23, New King James Version

22 The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.

It is marvelous in our eyes.

I Corinthians 4:6, New King James Version

I Thessalonians 2:13-17, New King James Version

13 But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth,
14 to which He called you by our gospel, for the obtaining of the glory of your Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or our epistle.
16 Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace,
17 comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work.

I Thessalonians 5:12-22, New King James Version

12 And we urge you, brethren, to recognize those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,
13 and to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the weak, be patient with all.
15 See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all.
16 Rejoice always,
17 Pray without ceasing,
18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
19 Do not quench the Spirit.
20 Do not despise prophecies.
21 Test all things; hold fast what is good.
22 Abstain from every form of evil.
