clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. Therefore by their fruits you will know them. Not everyone who says to Me, �Lord, Lord,� shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, �Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in your name, and done many wonders in Your name?� And then I will declare to them, �I never knew you; depart from Me, you that work iniquity!� MATTHEW 7:15-17, 20-23 "Behold, I am against those who prophesy false dreams," says the Lord, �and tell them, and cause My people to err by their lies and by their recklessness. Yet I did not send them or command them; therefore they shall not profit this people at all,� says the Lord. JEREMIAH 23-32 They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work. TITUS 1:16 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. 1 JOHN 4:1-3 And when they say to you, �Seek those who are mediums and wizards, who whisper and mutter,� should not a people seek their God? Should they seek the dead on behalf of the living? To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. ISAIAH 8:19-20 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. GALATIANS 5:1 A good tree does not bear bad fruit, not does a bad tree bear good fruit. For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush. LUKE 6:43-44 For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:33 God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. 2 TIMOTHY 1:7 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 1 JOHN 3:8
evidence of things not seen. By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible. HEBREWS 11:1, 3, 6, 27 That the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, receiving the end of your faith - the salvation of your souls. 1 PETER 1:7-9 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, �The just shall live by faith.� ROMANS 1:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. ROMANS 10:17 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. JOSHUA 1:9 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. JAMES 1:5-8 For with God nothing will be impossible. LUKE 1:37 He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. ROMANS 4:20-21 We are hard pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed - always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be mani- fested in our body. 2 CORINTHIANS 4:8-10 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? ROMANS 8:31 But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. JUDE 20, 21 We walk by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5:7
Pay attention to the words of my mouth: Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways, Do not stray into her paths; For she has cast down many wounded, And all who were slain by her were strong men. Her house is the way to hell, Descending to the chambers of death. PROVERBS 7:24-27 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not ful- fill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. GALATIANS 5:16-17 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. 1 CORINTHIANS 10:13 Put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and � put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness � nor give place to the devil. EPHESIANS 4:22-24, 27 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! Or do you not know that he who is joined to a har- lot is one body with her? For �the two,� He says, �shall become one flesh.� But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him. Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immoral- ity sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God�s. 1 CORINTHIANS 6:15-20 Do not lust after her beauty in your heart, nor let her allure you with her eyelids. For by means of a harlot A man is reduced to a crust of bread; and an adulteress will prey upon his precious life. PROVERBS 6:25-26 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. JAMES 1:2-4 |
