THE CREATOR, WHO IS BLESSED FOR EVER. AMEN

THE CREATOR, WHO IS BLESSED FOR EVER. AMEN

Romans 1:16-32, 2:1-16

For I Am Not Ashamed Of The Gospel Of Christ: For It Is The Power Of God Unto Salvation To Every One That Believeth; To The Jew First, And Also To The Greek. For Therein Is The Righteousness Of God Revealed From Faith To Faith: As It Is Written, The Just Shall Live By Faith. For The Wrath Of God Is Revealed From Heaven Against All Ungodliness And Unrighteousness Of Men, Who Hold The Truth In Unrighteousness; Because That Which May Be Known Of God Is Manifest In Them; For God Hath Shewed It Unto Them. For The Invisible Things Of Him From The Creation Of The World Are Clearly Seen, Being Understood By The Things That Are Made, Even His Eternal Power And Godhead; So That They Are Without Excuse: Because That, When They Knew God, They Glorified Him Not As God, Neither Were Thankful; But Became Vain In Their Imaginations, And Their Foolish Heart Was Darkened. Professing Themselves To Be Wise, They Became Fools, And Changed The Glory Of The Uncorruptible God Into An Image Made Like To Corruptible Man, And To Birds, And Fourfooted Beasts, And Creeping Things. Wherefore God Also Gave Them Up To Uncleanness Through The Lusts Of Their Own Hearts, To Dishonour Their Own Bodies Between Themselves: Who Changed The Truth Of God Into A Lie, And Worshipped And Served The Creature More Than The Creator, WHO IS BLESSED FOR EVER. AMEN. For This Cause God Gave Them Up Unto Vile Affections: For Even Their Women Did Change The Natural Use Into That Which Is Against Nature: And Likewise Also The Men, Leaving The Natural Use Of The Woman, Burned In Their Lust One Toward Another; Men With Men Working That Which Is Unseemly, And Receiving In Themselves That Recompence Of Their Error Which Was Meet. And Even As They Did Not Like To Retain God In Their Knowledge, God Gave Them Over To A Reprobate Mind, To Do Those Things Which Are Not Convenient; Being Filled With All Unrighteousness, Fornication, Wickedness, Covetousness, Maliciousness; Full Of Envy, Murder, Debate, Deceit, Malignity; Whisperers, Backbiters, Haters Of God, Despiteful, Proud, Boasters, Inventors Of Evil Things, Disobedient To Parents, Without Understanding, Covenantbreakers, Without Natural Affection, Implacable, Unmerciful: Who Knowing The Judgment Of God, That They Which Commit Such Things Are Worthy Of Death, Not Only Do The Same, But Have Pleasure In Them That Do Them. Therefore Thou Art Inexcusable, O Man, Whosoever Thou Art That Judgest: For Wherein Thou Judgest Another, Thou Condemnest Thyself; For Thou That Judgest Doest The Same Things. But We Are Sure That The Judgment Of God Is According To Truth Against Them Which Commit Such Things. And Thinkest Thou This, O Man, That Judgest Them Which Do Such Things, And Doest The Same, That Thou Shalt Escape The Judgment Of God? Or Despisest Thou The Riches Of His Goodness And Forbearance And Longsuffering; Not Knowing That The Goodness Of God Leadeth Thee To Repentance? But After Thy Hardness And Impenitent Heart Treasurest Up Unto Thyself Wrath Against The Day Of Wrath And Revelation Of The Righteous Judgment Of God; Who Will Render To Every Man According To His Deeds: To Them Who By Patient Continuance In Well Doing Seek For Glory And Honour And Immortality, Eternal Life: But Unto Them That Are Contentious, And Do Not Obey The Truth, But Obey Unrighteousness, Indignation And Wrath, Tribulation And Anguish, Upon Every Soul Of Man That Doeth Evil, Of The Jew First, And Also Of The Gentile; But Glory, Honour, And Peace, To Every Man That Worketh Good, To The Jew First, And Also To The Gentile: For There Is No Respect Of Persons With God. For As Many As Have Sinned Without Law Shall Also Perish Without Law: And As Many As Have Sinned In The Law Shall Be Judged By The Law; (For Not The Hearers Of The Law Are Just Before God, But The Doers Of The Law Shall Be Justified. For When The Gentiles, Which Have Not The Law, Do By Nature The Things Contained In The Law, These, Having Not The Law, Are A Law Unto Themselves: Which Shew The Work Of The Law Written In Their Hearts, Their Conscience Also Bearing Witness, And Their Thoughts The Mean While Accusing Or Else Excusing One Another;) In The Day When God Shall Judge The Secrets Of Men By Jesus Christ According To My Gospel.

Ephesians 5:1-20 

Be Ye Therefore Followers Of God, As Dear Children; And Walk In Love, As Christ Also Hath Loved Us, And Hath Given Himself For Us An Offering And A Sacrifice To God For A Sweetsmelling Savour. But Fornication, And All Uncleanness, Or Covetousness, Let It Not Be Once Named Among You, As Becometh Saints; Neither Filthiness, Nor Foolish Talking, Nor Jesting, Which Are Not Convenient: But Rather Giving Of Thanks. For This Ye Know, That No Whoremonger, Nor Unclean Person, Nor Covetous Man, Who Is An Idolater, Hath Any Inheritance In The Kingdom Of Christ And Of God. Let No Man Deceive You With Vain Words: For Because Of These Things Cometh The Wrath Of God Upon The Children Of Disobedience. Be Not Ye Therefore Partakers With Them. For Ye Were Sometimes Darkness, But Now Are Ye Light In The Lord: Walk As Children Of Light: (For The Fruit Of The Spirit Is In All Goodness And Righteousness And Truth;) Proving What Is Acceptable Unto The Lord. And Have No Fellowship With The Unfruitful Works Of Darkness, But Rather Reprove Them. For It Is A Shame Even To Speak Of Those Things Which Are Done Of Them In Secret. But All Things That Are Reproved Are Made Manifest By The Light: For Whatsoever Doth Make Manifest Is Light. Wherefore He Saith, Awake Thou That Sleepest, And Arise From The Dead, And Christ Shall Give Thee Light. See Then That Ye Walk Circumspectly, Not As Fools, But As Wise, Redeeming The Time, Because The Days Are Evil. Wherefore Be Ye Not Unwise, But Understanding What The Will Of The Lord Is. And Be Not Drunk With Wine, Wherein Is Excess; But Be Filled With The Spirit; Speaking To Yourselves In Psalms And Hymns And Spiritual Songs, Singing And Making Melody In Your Heart To The Lord; Giving Thanks Always For All Things Unto God And The Father In The Name Of Our Lord Jesus Christ;

Colossians 3:1-10 

If Ye Then Be Risen With Christ, Seek Those Things Which Are Above, Where Christ Sitteth On The Right Hand Of God. Set Your Affection On Things Above, Not On Things On The Earth. For Ye Are Dead, And Your Life Is Hid With Christ In God. When Christ, Who Is Our Life, Shall Appear, Then Shall Ye Also Appear With Him In Glory. Mortify Therefore Your Members Which Are Upon The Earth; Fornication, Uncleanness, Inordinate Affection, Evil Concupiscence, And Covetousness, Which Is Idolatry: For Which Things' Sake The Wrath Of God Cometh On The Children Of Disobedience: In The Which Ye Also Walked Some Time, When Ye Lived In Them. But Now Ye Also Put Off All These; Anger, Wrath, Malice, Blasphemy, Filthy Communication Out Of Your Mouth. Lie Not One To Another, Seeing That Ye Have Put Off The Old Man With His Deeds; And Have Put On The New Man, Which Is Renewed In Knowledge After The Image Of Him That Created Him:

2 Timothy 2:22 

Flee Also Youthful Lusts: But Follow Righteousness, Faith, Charity, Peace, With Them That Call On The Lord Out Of A Pure Heart.

Romans 5:1-21 

Therefore Being Justified By Faith, We Have Peace With God Through Our Lord Jesus Christ: By Whom Also We Have Access By Faith Into This Grace Wherein We Stand, And Rejoice In Hope Of The Glory Of God. And Not Only So, But We Glory In Tribulations Also: Knowing That Tribulation Worketh Patience; And Patience, Experience; And Experience, Hope: And Hope Maketh Not Ashamed; Because The Love Of God Is Shed Abroad In Our Hearts By The Holy Ghost Which Is Given Unto Us. For When We Were Yet Without Strength, In Due Time Christ Died For The Ungodly. For Scarcely For A Righteous Man Will One Die: Yet Peradventure For A Good Man Some Would Even Dare To Die. But God Commendeth His Love Toward Us, In That, While We Were Yet Sinners, Christ Died For Us. Much More Then, Being Now Justified By His Blood, We Shall Be Saved From Wrath Through Him. For If, When We Were Enemies, We Were Reconciled To God By The Death Of His Son, Much More, Being Reconciled, We Shall Be Saved By His Life. And Not Only So, But We Also Joy In God Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, By Whom We Have Now Received The Atonement. Wherefore, As By One Man Sin Entered Into The World, And Death By Sin; And So Death Passed Upon All Men, For That All Have Sinned: (For Until The Law Sin Was In The World: But Sin Is Not Imputed When There Is No Law. Nevertheless Death Reigned From Adam To Moses, Even Over Them That Had Not Sinned After The Similitude Of Adam's Transgression, Who Is The Figure Of Him That Was To Come. But Not As The Offence, So Also Is The Free Gift. For If Through The Offence Of One Many Be Dead, Much More The Grace Of God, And The Gift By Grace, Which Is By One Man, Jesus Christ, Hath Abounded Unto Many. And Not As It Was By One That Sinned, So Is The Gift: For The Judgment Was By One To Condemnation, But The Free Gift Is Of Many Offences Unto Justification. For If By One Man's Offence Death Reigned By One; Much More They Which Receive Abundance Of Grace And Of The Gift Of Righteousness Shall Reign In Life By One, Jesus Christ.) Therefore As By The Offence Of One Judgment Came Upon All Men To Condemnation; Even So By The Righteousness Of One The Free Gift Came Upon All Men Unto Justification Of Life. For As By One Man's Disobedience Many Were Made Sinners, So By The Obedience Of One Shall Many Be Made Righteous. Moreover The Law Entered, That The Offence Might Abound. But Where Sin Abounded, Grace Did Much More Abound: That As Sin Hath Reigned Unto Death, Even So Might Grace Reign Through Righteousness Unto Eternal Life By Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Philippians 4:4-8 

Rejoice In The Lord Alway: And Again I Say, Rejoice. Let Your Moderation Be Known Unto All Men. The Lord Is At Hand. Be Careful For Nothing; But In Every Thing By Prayer And Supplication With Thanksgiving Let Your Requests Be Made Known Unto God. And The Peace Of God, Which Passeth All Understanding, Shall Keep Your Hearts And Minds Through Christ Jesus. Finally, Brethren, Whatsoever Things Are True, Whatsoever Things Are Honest, Whatsoever Things Are Just, Whatsoever Things Are Pure, Whatsoever Things Are Lovely, Whatsoever Things Are Of Good Report; If There Be Any Virtue, And If There Be Any Praise, Think On These Things.
