“Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of those who mutilate the flesh!”

Modesty is the key to success

There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.

The man who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know.

Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel.

Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Can’t you see for yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you – unless you actually fail the test?

If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

For he who has died has been freed from sin…14 For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

preach the word, be urgent in season and out of season, convince, rebuke, and exhort, be unfailing in patience and in teaching.

Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor- not in lustful passion like the pagans who do not know God and his ways.

Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.

Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, Jesus himeself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil.

Your teaching must have the integrity of serious, sound words to which no one can take exception. If it does, no opponent will be able to find anything bad to say about us, and hostility will yield to shame.

There is nothing love cannot face; there is limit to its faith, its hope and endurance.

But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.

Beware not the enemy from ‘without’ but the enemy from ‘within’.

Beware of creating tedium!

Beware of the person who can’t be bothered by details.

Beware of endeavoring to become a great man in a hurry. One such attempt in ten thousand may succeed. These are fearful odds.

Beware the god who cannot laugh.

Beware the things of this world that can mean everything or nothing.

Beware lest in your anxiety to avoid war you obtain a master

Beware of the fury of the patient man.
