Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.

There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

Each of you should continue to live in whatever situation the Lord has placed you, and remain as you were when god first called you.

1 Corinthians 7:17

Those with good sense are slow to anger, and it is there glory to overlook an offense.

Every act of rebellion expresses a nostalgia for innocence.

He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepth understanding shall find good.

God’s primary way of ruling and acting on our planet is through people. When God wants something done in the world, God calls people to do it. …God’s primary way of working in the world is through people who are empowered and led by God’s spirit.
