Who can say, “I have kept my heart pure; I am clean and without sin”? Proverbs 20:9
If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins God is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:8,9
If someone claims, “I know God,” but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. 1 John 2:4
“They profess to know God, but by their actions they deny Him. They are detestable, disobedient, and unfit for any good deed. No one who remains in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has seen Him or known Him.”
If anyone says, “I love God,” but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. 1 John 4:20
Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light, and there is nothing in them to make them stumble. But anyone who hates a brother or sister is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness. They do not know where they are going, because the darkness has blinded them. 1 John 2:9,10
“Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.”
Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. 1 John 4:7
So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. By this, all people will know that you are my disciples if you have love for one another. John 13:34,35
If we love our brothers and sisters who are believers, it proves that we have passed from death to life. But a person who has no love is still dead. 1 John 3:14
Foolishness brings joy to those with no sense; a sensible person stays on the right path. Proverbs 15:21
Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God. Ephesian 5:2
Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” John 4:10
For My people have committed two evils. They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living water, and they have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water. Jeremiah 2:13
Jesus answered, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst.” John 6:35
I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh. John 6:51
So then, be careful how you walk, not as unwise people but as wise, making the most of every opportunity because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15,16
For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the evil times. Then after the battle, you will still be standing firm. Ephesian 6:12.13
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. Psalm 24:3-5
“Blest are the pure in heart, for they shall see our God, the secret of the Lord is theirs, their soul is Christs’ abode. Still to the lowly soul, Himself He will impart, and for His dwelling and His throne, chooses the pure in heart. Lord, we Your presence seek, we ask this blessing, too; give us a pure and lowly heart, a temple fit for Thee.”
