let brotherly love continue...
do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers...
remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them...
and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body...
let marriage be held in honor among all...
keep your life free from love of money...
be content with what you have...
remember your leaders...
imitate their faith...
do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings...
“I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
So we can confidently say,
I will not fear;
what can man do to me?”
Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood. Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured. For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come. Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.
Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in all things.
Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
bits from hebrews 12 and 13.
read the whole of the chapters because i did some cutting and pasting. i'm pretty certain that's frowned upon. so do my conscience a favor and just read it in it's entirety. thanks.
