2 Timothy 3:1-4
1But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2? People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, ? 3? without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4? treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.
Matthew 28:19-20
19? Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit 20? and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Psalms 139:13-16
Oh yes, you [GOD] shaped me first inside, then out; you formed me in my mother’s womb. I thank you, High God—you’re breathtaking! Body and soul, I am marvelously made! I worship in adoration—what a creation! You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body… You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something. Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before you, The days of my life all prepared before I’d even lived one day.
Ephesians 2:10
For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].?
Colossians 2:10
and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority...
1 John 2:16-17
16? For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. ?17? The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.
