Galatians 4:15

For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.

I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,

Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.

You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently,

They will still produce fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green,

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report: if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, think about these things.

Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might produce fruit to God.

For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don’t use your freedom for gain to the flesh, but through love be servants to one another.

being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

“Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.

Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;

for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.

For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.

that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God,

whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,

For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.

In him we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.

Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,

I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing.

Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written.”

Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray.

Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”

From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.

Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.

Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this, which you now see and hear.

They, when they heard it, glorified God. They said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law.

Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand,

I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?

even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

“Most certainly I tell you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life.

I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.

But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

If I speak with the languages of men and of angels, but don’t have love, I have become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.

If any man doesn’t love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be cursed. Come, Lord!

I just want to learn this from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith?

until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,

You became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit,

Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.

but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.

Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit,

By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.

He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.

The beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who worked the signs in his sight, with which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.

The children of Israel brought a free will offering to Yahweh; every man and woman whose heart made them willing to bring for all the work, which Yahweh had commanded to be made by Moses.

If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you, and he gives you a sign or a wonder,

She said, “Let your servant find favor in your sight.” So the woman went her way and ate; and her facial expression wasn’t sad any more.

Then the people rejoiced, because they offered willingly, because with a perfect heart they offered willingly to Yahweh; and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.

Ephraim, what have I to do any more with idols? I answer, and will take care of him. I am like a green cypress tree; from me your fruit is found.”

“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.

If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire.

Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.

“The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’

For there will arise false christs and false prophets, and will show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.

But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.

But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.

for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

rejoicing in hope; enduring in troubles; continuing steadfastly in prayer;

For even Christ didn’t please himself. But, as it is written, “The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me.”

For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ, you don’t have many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, I became your father through the Good News.

Examine your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or don’t you know about your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.

But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,

Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice with you all.

For I desire to have you know how greatly I struggle for you, and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.

You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware, lest being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.

Little children, these are the end times, and as you heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen. By this we know that it is the final hour.

We love him, because he first loved us.

For there will arise false christs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.

If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into God’s Kingdom with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire,

Even as David also pronounces blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works,

through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brothers’ sake, my relatives according to the flesh

For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.

For according to their power, I testify, yes and beyond their power, they gave of their own accord,

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,

But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.

For I testify about him that he has great zeal for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.

Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you, not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.

and to respect and honor them in love for their work’s sake. Be at peace among yourselves.

Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root, who believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
