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.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away. -Luke 21:33, New King James Version, Words from the Holy Bible

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.
