Your words have been stout against me, saith the Lord. Yet you say, What have we spoken so much against you? You have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the Lord of hosts? And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered. Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name. And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son that serves him. Then shall you return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serves God and him that serves him not.
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be you steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And let every one that names the name of Christ depart from inquity.
1 Cor. 15:58;2 Tim. 2:19;Mal. 3:13-18
All that strife, didn't mean a thing, no temptation that has taken you but such that is common to man, but God is faithful who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able but will with the temptation, make a way for you to escape that you may be able to bear it, but let brotherly love continue, and be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for some have entertain angels unawares....Amen. And whatsoever you do, do it heartily as unto the Lord, not to be seen of men. So whatsoever you do in word or in deed do all to the glory of God, giving thanks by Him in all things, for we serve the Lord Christ...Amen.
