Philippians 3:13

Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive one hundred times, and will inherit eternal life.

Yahweh, I love the habitation of your house, the place where your glory dwells.

But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for God’s Kingdom.”

For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night.

Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.

Blessed is the one whom you choose and cause to come near, that he may live in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.

For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.

For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

“If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t disregard his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple.

Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are always praising you.

How lovely are your dwellings, Yahweh of Armies!

“Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law. Don’t fear the reproach of men, and don’t be dismayed at their insults.

He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.

Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ

Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”

Let’s acknowledge Yahweh. Let’s press on to know Yahweh. As surely as the sun rises, Yahweh will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth.”

But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Not that I speak because of lack, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it.

laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life.

It came to pass, when they had taken them out, that he said, “Escape for your life! Don’t look behind you, and don’t stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be consumed!”

but when that which is complete has come, then that which is partial will be done away with.

But we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.

His affection is more abundantly toward you, while he remembers all of your obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.

even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,

But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,

Let’s therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.

Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.

Serve Yahweh with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

So I have seen you in the sanctuary, watching your power and your glory.

For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.

Yahweh will fulfill that which concerns me. Your loving kindness, Yahweh, endures forever. Don’t forsake the works of your own hands.

Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don’t grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn’t fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys.

Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death,

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,

I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants,

Now set your heart and your soul to follow Yahweh your God. Arise therefore, and build the sanctuary of Yahweh God, to bring the ark of Yahweh’s covenant and the holy vessels of God into the house that is to be built for Yahweh’s name.”

Are your days as the days of mortals, or your years as man’s years,

My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?

Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines out.

I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings.

You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.

After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.

“If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of Yahweh honorable; and honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words,

‘Speak to the house of Israel, “The Lord Yahweh says: ‘Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pities; and your sons and your daughters whom you have left behind will fall by the sword.

From the days of John the Baptizer until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.

Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”

Then Peter answered, “Behold, we have left everything, and followed you. What then will we have?”

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.

not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,
