“IT WOULD BE A LIE IF IT DID NOT GET INTO YOU NERVES.”
2 Corinthians 2:15-17 For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. To the one we are the smell of death; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task? Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
John 6:61-66 Aware that his disciples were grumbling about this, Jesus said to them, “DOES THIS OFFEND YOU? What if you see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before! The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and WHO WOULD BETRAY HIM. He went on to say, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled him.” From this time many of HIS DISCIPLES TURNED BACK AND NO LONGER FOLLOWED HIM.
1 Corinthians 4:5-7,20 Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait till the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men’s hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God. Now, brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “DO NOT GO BEYOND WHAT IS WRITTEN.” Then you will not take pride in one man over against another. For WHO MAKES YOU DIFFERENT FROM ANYONE ELSE? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, WHY DO YOU BOAST as though you did not? For the kingdom of God is NOT A MATTER OF TALK but of power.
1 Corinthians1:18-20,27-31 Christ the Wisdom and Power of God For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are BEING SAVED it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. IT IS BECAUSE OF HIM THAT YOU ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our RIGHTEOUSNESS,HOLINESS AND REDEMPTION. Therefore, as it is written: “Let him who boasts boast in the Lord.”
