1 Corinthians 5:9-13

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009

Paul taught:

“I wrote to you in my epistle not to keep company with sexually immoral people. Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world.

But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner-not even to eat with such a person.

For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? But those who are outside God judges. Therefore “put away from yourselves the evil person.”

1 Corinthians 5:9-13
Have a wondrous Tuesday!

1 Corinthians 8:5-6

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.

1 Corinthians 8:5-6
Have a blissful Tuesday!

Romans 2:21-24

Monday, November 24th, 2008

Paul said:

You, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself?

You who preach that a man should not steal, do you steal?

You who say, “Do not commit adultery,” do you commit adultery?

You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

You who make your boast in the law, do you dishonor God through breaking the law?

For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you…”

Romans 2:21-24
Have a warm Monday!

Note: As I always do, I check for previous uses of the verse I decide on each day to make sure that they don’t repeat too often. I found that the verse on my heart this morning was used about a year and a half ago, and I discovered that I must have been in a similar place spiritually because I wrote an amazingly appropriate commentary that morning. It really blessed and encouraged me. I want to provide a link in hopes that it will bless someone else as well: http://votd.org/2007/04/03/romans-221-24/

Psalm 24:3-5

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place?

He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, Nor sworn deceitfully.

He shall receive blessing from the Lord, And righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Psalm 24:3-5
Have a fine Wednesday!
