“Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead” ~ 2 Timothy 2:8

[Whitney Mathis @Whit1658]

Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

— Galatians 6:7-8

[Whitney Mathis @Whit1658]

If you choose righteous suffering now, you will experience eternal comfort and fullness of joy in the future. If you choose sinful self-indulgence now, you will experience extreme suffering and misery in the future.

[Whitney Mathis @Whit1658]

Suffering is inevitable. Wouldn’t it be better to suffer a little now through self denial and killing the deeds of the flesh rather than extreme suffering for sinful choices in the future?

I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

— Matthew 12:34-37

“You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. The good person out of his good treasure brings forth good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure brings forth evil.

“But if it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.” — Matthew 12:28

Then a demon-oppressed man who was blind and mute was brought to him, and he healed him, so that the man spoke and saw. — Matthew 12:22

— Romans 5:10-11

[Whitney Mathis @Whit1658]

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

“You, however, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness, my persecutions and sufferings that happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra—which persecutions I endured; yet from them all the Lord rescued me.”

Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. ~ Ephesians 6:4

“What do you want? How badly do you want it? And how much are you willing to suffer to get it?”

“Just keeping stacking days. I promise you, you will see the change.”

“If what you are doing is not moving you towards your goals, then it’s moving you away from your goals. Nothing is neutral. Everything you are doing is either moving you towards the goals you want to accomplish or it’s moving you away.”
