Some Bible verses which I would want to share.
'He also force everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark.' (Revelation 13: 16-18)
This verse means that we must becareful of Satan's attack. We must be vigilant and alert and not fall into his tricks or any temptations. For as it is written, that whoever has the mark on his right hand or forehead, is a slave of the Satan. We must becareful whom we are associating with, and know whether our consciences are right when we are doing things. Even though it is modern in the times now, temptation and tricks can be used everywhere!
'Law brings wrath. And where there is no law, there is no transgression.'
This verse simply means that, we must submit to authority. When there is no law in the country, there is bound to be chaos. If we are the disciples or God, Jesus Christ himself, we must therefore submit to authority.
'You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.'
This simply means that when we were incapable, Christ has died for all of us. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." (John 3:16)
'For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.' (Romans 12:3)
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay, says the Lord" (Romans 12:17-19)
"Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited." (Romans 12:14-16)
"If anyone would come after me (Jesus), he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet loses his soul in the process?" (Matthew 16:24-26)
For Earthly Possessions will not last eternally, for as one who died, will not bring the possessions along with him, but his accounts of his deeds. For when Judgement day comes, Everything will be destroyed. What means is there to be contented and tempted to steal, or acheive earthly possessions when all good things will come to an end?
One who is faithful in Jesus and who trust in Him, He will have bountiful rewards in heaven awaiting for him/her and Jesus himself will henceforth say "You are a good and faithful servant" For as all earthly possessions will be turn to ashes and vapourise, so do not be tempted by earthly possessions.
These verses and testimonies which I have typed so far has really broaden my mind instead of looking at a perspective point of view. As the Bible scriptures has embedded into my mind, hopefully into yours too, that we can follow God's words and obey his commands at all times. Amen! To Sing praises of God and worship him everyday forever and ever. Amen! For we are doing it in the glory of Lord Jesus.
