He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. - Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him. God is not unrighteous to forget your work and lavour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. I beseech you...brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. - The love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: and that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. - Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. Pro. 3.9; 2 Co. 9.6; 1 Co. 16.2 He. 6.10 Ro. 12.1; 2 Co. 5.14-15; 1 Co. 10.31 Daily Light - Evening There shall be no night there. The LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. The city had no need o fthe sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. - They need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light. Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light. - Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son. - Ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light. We are not of the night, nor of darkness. The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. Rev. 21.25; Isa. 60.19 Rev. 21.23; Rev. 22.5 1 Pe. 2.9; Col. 1.12-13; Eph. 5.8 1 Th. 5.5 Pro. 4.18 A Puritans Catechism Q 37 - What benefits do believers receive from Christ at the resurrection?

The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of The Holy Scriptures Chapter 1 PARAGRAPH 2 Under the name of Holy Scripture, or the Word of God written, are now contained all the books of the Old and New Testaments, which are these: -- OF THE OLD TESTAMENTGenesis Exodus Leviticus Numbers Deuteronomy Joshua Judges Ruth 1 Samuel 2 Samuel 1 Kings 2 Kings 1 Chronicles 2 Chronicles Ezra Nehemiah Esther Job Psalms Proverbs Ecclesiastes The Song of Solomon Isaiah Jeremiah Lamentations Ezekiel Daniel Hosea Joel Amos Obadiah Jonah Micah Nahum Habakkuk Zephaniah Haggai Zechariah Malachi -- Of the New TestamentMatthew Mark Luke John Acts Romans 1 Corinthians 2 Corinthians Galatians Ephesians Philippians Colossians 1 Thessalonians 2 Thessalonians 1 Timothy 2 Timothy Titus Philemon Hebrews James 1 Peter 2 Peter 1 John 2 John 3 John Jude Revelation All of which are given by the inspiration of God, to be the rule of faith and life.5 5 2 Tim. 3:16 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings It was good When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was. - John 11 v 6 Had Christ come at the first and healed their brother, we never would have known the love that showed itself at the grave of Lazarus, we never would have known the power of the great Redeemer in raising from the grave. These bright forth-shinings of the glory of Christ would have been lost in the Church and to the world. Therefore it was good that He stayed away for two days. Thus the honour of His name was spread far and wide. The Son of God was glorified. 'This people have I formed for myself; they sahll show forth my praise.' This is God's great end in all His dealings with His people - that He may be seen. For this reason He destroyed the Egyptians. 'That the Egyptians may know that I am the Lord'.
