1 Corinthians 13:13

Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.

 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 

Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools. This too is meaningless.

so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.

There is no one holy like the Lord;
    there is no one besides you;
    there is no Rock like our God.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on them.

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 faith God has distributed to each of you.

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
    and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools. This too is meaningless.

 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
