Quotes:
"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." 1 Timothy 4:12
Jeremiah 29:11-13
11)"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord,"Plans to prodper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.12)Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will lisen to you.13)You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
"That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." (Romans 10:9-10 niv)
John 15:5-17
“However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him"†(1 Corinthians 2:9)
"What does it mean to be Lutheran? Negatively it means not being Catholic and not being Protestant. Positively, it means daring to be faithful to God’s Word! Whenever you think you care enough about God and His Word to get excited about keeping it pure, you might be a Lutheran! True Lutheranism is all about God’s Word and being faithful to His Word as the greatest treasure we have in all of life, especially that word of forgiveness.
DARE TO BE LUTHERAN!"
~Rev. Nathan Sherrill, St.Paul's Lutheran
"Unless I am convinced by Scripture and by plain reason - I do not accept the authority of popes and councils, for they have contradicted each other - my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and will not recant anything for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand I cannot do otherwise. God help me. Amen."
~Martin Luther
Philippians 4:4-7
"4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
1 Corinthians 1:4-9
"4I always thank God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. 5For in him you have been enriched in every way—in all your speaking and in all your knowledge— 6because our testimony about Christ was confirmed in you. 7Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed. 8He will keep you strong to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful."
“Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.†(Psalm 139:23-24)
