(But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness
..
Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, (the kingdom of God is within you.)
(For the kingdom of God is ... righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.)
For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God.
but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
(To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.) Note: is the throne not in the kingdom of GOD within you?
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Abba is so Loving
My son, hast thou sinned? do so no more, but ask pardon for thy former sins.
Flee from sin as from the face of a serpent: for if thou comest too near it, it will bite thee: the teeth thereof are as the teeth of a lion, slaying the souls of men.
All iniquity is as a two edged sword, the wounds whereof cannot be healed.
He that hateth to be reproved is in the way of sinners: but he that feareth the Lord will repent from his heart.
The congregation of the wicked is like tow wrapped together: and the end of them is a flame of fire to destroy them.
(The way of sinners is made plain with stones, but at the end thereof is the pit of hell.)
He that keepeth the law of the Lord getteth the understanding thereof: and the perfection of the fear of the Lord is wisdom.
He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,
To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.
He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
And I will give them an heart to know me, that I am the LORD: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto me with their whole heart." ... Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The Lord be magnified.
