Hebrews 5-6

Hebrews 5:11-14

11 of whom we have much to say, and hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. 12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food. 13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Hebrews 6:4-6, 12

4For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they fall away,[d] to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

12 that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

d. Hebrews 6:6 Or and have fallen away

Hebrews 3-4

Hebrews 3: 1, 4, 12-14
1Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus...
4For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.
12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; 13 but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end...

Hebrews 4: 12, 16
12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Hebrews

Next I decided to read Hebrews, today I read the first two chapters.

Hebrew 1:1-2

1God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;...

Hebrew 2:1, 10, 14-15, 18

1 Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away.

10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

14Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

18 For in that He Himself has suffered, being tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.

Joshua, Isaiah and Philippians

Today I had a job interview, and a few hours before the interview, I was getting a little nervous. I went to the prayer meeting at school and picked verses from a small box with Bible verses. God gave me three verses that really spoke to my situation. These three verses were:

Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”

Isaiah 41:10

Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

and

Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ[a] who strengthens me.

a. Philippians 4:13 NU-Text reads Him who.

All verses are from NKJV.

p.s. The job interview went well. I was a bit nervous on the way but not so nervous during the interview.

2 Timothy 4

2 Timothy 4:2-4, 18

2Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 3For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

18The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

2 Timothy 3

2 Timothy 3:1-5, 14-17

1But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.

14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

2 Timothy 2

2 Timothy 2:1, 11-13, 15-16, 22

1You then...be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
11Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him; 12if we endure, we will also reign with him. f we disown him, he will also disown us; 13if we are faithless, he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself.
15Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. 16Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly.
22Flee the evil desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

2 Timothy

So now I have finished reading 1 Timothy. Next I will read 2 Timothy.

here are some verses from the first chapter(2 Timothy 1:7, 9-10, 14) :

7For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.
9who has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, 10but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
14Guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you—guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us.

1 Timothy 6

1 Timothy 6:6-16

6But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. 10For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

11But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness. 12Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 13In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you 14to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen

I have created a new blogsite to post verses from the Bible.

1 Timothy

I started reading 1 Timothy a few days ago. I decided to post a few verses every day, which I did. But then I wanted to make a new blog, to keep the verses apart from my other blog.

These are the verses I have posted on my other blogsite http://puritygirl86.livejournal.com/
until now:

1 Timothy 2
Mar. 2nd, 2009 at 6:45 PM
1 Timothy 2:8-15.
8I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing. 9I also want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, 10but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God. 11A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. 12I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent. 13For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. 15But women[a] will be saved[b] through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.

1 Timothy 2:15 Greek she
1 Timothy 2:15 Or restored


1 Timothy 3
Mar. 3rd, 2009 at 9:03 PM
1 Timothy 3:11,14b, 15b
11In the same way, their wives[b] are to be women worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and trustworthy in everything. 14...I am writing you these instructions so that, 15...you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God's household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.

b. 1 Timothy 3:11 Or way, deaconesses


1 Timothy 4
Mar. 4th, 2009 at 9:53 PM
1 Timothy 4:4-5, 12-15
4For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, 5because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer. 12Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. 13Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching. 14Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through a prophetic message when the body of elders laid their hands on you. 15Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress.


From now on I will post verses here.
