two or three have been gathered together in My name,
there I am in their midst."—Matthew 18:20
FOR YOUR JEHOVAH'S
WITNESS AND LDS (MORMON) FRIENDS
- MATTHEW 7:21-23: "Not
everyone who says to Me, 'Lord,
Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven; but
he who does the will of the Father who is in heaven.
Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy
in Your name, and in Your name
cast out demons, and in Your name perform many
miracles?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew
you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness."
- JOHN 6:28-29: "They
said therefore to Him, 'What shall we do, that
we may works the works of God?' Jesus answered and said to them,
'This is the work of God, that you believe
in Him whom He has sent.' "
- 1 JOHN 5:11-13: "And
the witness is this, that God has given us eternal
life, and this life is in His Son. he who has
the Son has the life; he who does not
have the Son of God does not have the life. These things I have
written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, in order
that you may know that you have eternal life."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 11:3-4: "But
I am afraid, lest as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness,
your minds should be led astray
from the simplicity and purity
of devotion to Christ. For if one comes and preaches
another Jesus whom we hae not preached, or you
receive a different spirit which you have not
received, or a different gospel which you have
not accepted, you bear this beautifully."
- 2 TIMOTHY 4:3-4: "For
the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine;
but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate
for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires;
and will turn away their ears from the
truth, and will turn aside to myths."
- 1 CORINTHIANS 2:14: "But
a natural man does not accept
the things of the Spirit of God; for they are
foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them,
because they are spiritually appraised."
- 1 CORINTHIANS 12:3: "...no
one speaking by the Spirit of God says, 'Jesus is accursed'; and
no one can say, 'Jesus is Lord,'
except by the Holy Spirit."
- JOHN 6:63: "It
is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh
profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you
are spirit and are life."
- MATTHEW 11:28-30: "Come
to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden,
and I will give you rest. Take
My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am
gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your souls.
For My yoke is easy, and My load is light."
- JOHN 6:37, 39: "All
that the Father gives Me shall come to
Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not
cast out....And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all
that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise
it up on the last day."
- JOHN 6:44-45, 64: "No
one can come to Me, unless the
Father who sent Me draws him; and I
will raise him up on the last day....Everyone
who has heard and learned from the Father, comes
to Me....no one can come to Me, unless it has been granted
him from the Father."
- ACTS 16:14: "And
a certain woman named Lydia...a worshiper of God, was listening;
and the Lord opened her heart to respond to the
things spoken by Paul."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 4:3-4: "And
even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to
those who are perishing, in whose case the god of this world has
blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that they
might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ,
who is the image of God."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 3:14-16: "But
their minds were hardened; for
until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same
veil remains unlifted, because
it is removed in Christ. But
to this day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their
heart; but whenever a man turns to the Lord,
the veil is taken away."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 4:6: "For
God, who said, Light shall shine out of darkness,
is the One who has shone in our hearts to give
the light of the knowledge of
the glory of God in the face of Christ."
- GALATIANS 4:8-9: "However
at that time, when you did not know
God, you were slaves to those
which by nature are no gods....But now that you have come
to know God, or rather to be known by God...."
- JOHN 10:3-5, 14: "...the
sheep hear his voice, and he calls his
own sheep by name, and leads them out.
When he puts forth all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep
follow him because they know his voice.
And a stranger they simply will not follow,
but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of
strangers....I am the good shepherd; and I know My own,
and My own know Me."
- JOHN 14:6: "Jesus
said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth,
and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through
Me."
- JOHN 8:32, 36: "and
you shall know the truth, and the truth shall
make you free....If therefore the Son shall make
you free, you shall be free indeed."
- JOHN 5:39-40: "You
search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have
eternal life; and it is these that bear witness of Me;
and you are unwilling to come to Me, that
you may have life."
- JOHN 5:23: "in
order that all may honor the Son, even
as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son
does not honor the Father who sent Him."
- JOHN 3:36: "He
who believes in the Son has eternal life;
but he who does not obey the Son shall not see
life, but the wrath of God abides on him."
- JOHN 12:48: "He
who rejects Me, and does not receive My sayings,
has one who judges him; the word I spoke is what
will judge him at the last day."
- JOHN 9:39-41: "And
he said, 'Lord, I believe.' And he worshiped Him.
And Jesus said, 'For judgement I came into this world, that
those who do not see may see; and that those
who see may become blind.' Those of the Pharisees who
were with Him heard these things, and said to Him, 'We are not
blind too, are we?' Jesus said to them, 'If you were blind, you
would have no sin; but since you say, "We
see," your sin remains.'"
- EPHESIANS 4:17-18; 5:8: "...walk
no longer just as the Gentiles also walk...being darkened
in their understanding, excluded from the life
of God, because of the ignorance that is in them,
because of the hardness of their heart....for
you were formerly darkness, but now you
are light in the Lord...."
- COLOSSIANS 1:13: "For
He delivered us from the domain of darkness,
and transferred us to the kingdom
of His beloved Son...."
- GALATIANS 2:15-16: "But
when He who had set me apart,
even from my mother's womb, and called me through His
grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me...."
- ROMANS 8:29-30: "For
whom He foreknew, He also predestined
to become conformed to the image of His Son...and whom
He predestined, these He also called; and whom
He called, these He also justified; and whom
He justified, these He also glorified."
- ROMANS 9:16: "So
then it does not depend on the man who
wills or the man who runs, but on God who has
mercy."
- MARK 10:26-27: "And
they were even more astonished and said to Him, 'Then
who can be saved? Looking upon them, Jesus said, 'With
men it is impossible, but not with God; for all
things are possible with God."
- 2 TIMOTHY 2:19: "Nevertheless,
the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, 'The
Lord knows those who are His....' "
FOR CHRISTIANS REACHING
OUT TO JEHOVAH'S WITNESS AND LDS (MORMON) FRIENDS
- 2 TIMOTHY 2:23-26:
"But refuse foolish and ignorant
speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels. And
the Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome,
but be kind to all, able to teach,
patient when wronged, with gentleness
correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God
may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge
of the truth, and they may come to their senses and
escape from the snare of the devil, having been held
captive by him to do his will."
- 2 TIMOTHY 2:14-16: "Remind
them of these things, and solemnly charge them
in the presence of God not to wrangle about words,
which is useless, and leads to the ruin of the
hearers. Be diligent to present yourself approved
to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, handling
accurately the word of truth. But avoid
worldly and empty chatter, for it will
lead to further ungodliness."
- COLOSSIANS 2:7-8: "having
been firmly rooted and now being built
up in Him and established in your faith,
just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude.
See to it that no one takes you captive through
philosophy and empty deception,
according to the tradition of men, according
to the elementary principles of the world, rather
than according to Christ."
- COLOSSIANS 4:2-6: "Devote
yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with
an attitude of thanksgiving; praying at the same time
for us as well, that God may open up to us a door for
the word, so that we may speak for the mystery of Christ,
for which I have also been imprisoned; in order that I may make
it clear in the way I ought to speak. Conduct
yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making
the most of the opportunity. Let your speech
always be with grace, seasoned, as
it were, with salt, so that you may know
how you should respond to each
person."
- 1 PETER 3:15: "But
sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being
ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give
an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness
and reverence;"
- 2 CORINTHIANS 10:4-5:
"...for the weapons of
our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful
for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying
speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge
of God, and we are taking every throught captive
to the obedience of Christ."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 4:5: "For
we do not preach ourselves but Christ
Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bond-servants for
Jesus' sake."
- 1 THESSALONIANS 5:4-8: "But
you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the
day should overtake you like a thief; for you are all
sons of light and sons of day. We are
not of night nor of darkness; so then let us not sleep
as others do, but let us be alert and sober. For those
who sleep do their sleeping at night, and those who get drunk
get drunk at night. But since we are of the day,
let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith
and love, and as a helmet, the hope
of salvation."
- EPHESIANS 6:12-17: "For
our struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world
forces of this darkness, against the
spiritual forces of wickedness in the
heavenly places. Therefore, take up
the full armor of God, that you may be able to
resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.
Stand firm therefore, having girded
your loins with truth, and having put on the
breastplate of righteousness, and having shod
your feet with the preparation of the
gospel of peace; in addition to all, taking up the shield
of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all
the flaming missiles of the evil one. And take the helment
of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit,
which is the word of God."
- HEBREWS 4:12: "For
the word of God is living and
active and sharper than any two-edged sword,
and piercing as far as the division of the soul and spirit, of
both joints and marrow, and able to judge the
thoughts and intentions of the heart."
- EPHESIANS 6:18-20:
"With all prayer and petition pray at all
times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the
alert with all perseverance and petition for
all the saints, and pray on my behalf, that utterance
may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with
boldness the mystery of the gospel, for which
I am an ambassador in chains; that in proclaiming it
I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 2:14-17: "But
thanks be to God, who always leads us in His triumph in Christ,
and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the
knowledge of Him in every place. For we are a
fragrance of Christ to God among those who are
being saved and among those who are perishing; to the one
an aroma from death to death, to the other
an aroma from life to life. And who is adequate
for these things? For we are not like many, peddling the word
of God, but as from sincerity, but as from God, we speak in Christ
in the sight of God."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 3:5-6: "Not
that we are adequate in ourselves to consider anything as coming
from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God,
who also made us adequate as servants of the new covenant,
not of the letter, but of the Spirit; for the letter kills,
but the Spirit gives life."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 4:7: "But
we have this treasure in earthen vessels,
that the surpassing greatness of the power may
be of God and not from ourselves;"
- 1 CORINTHIANS 2:1-5:
"And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come
with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming
to you the testimony of God. For I determined to know nothing
among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. And I was with
you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling. And my message
and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom,
but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
that you faith should not rest on the wisdom of men,
but on the power of God."
- 1 CORINTHIANS 4:20:
"For the kingdom of God does not consist
in words, but in power."
- 2 CORINTHIANS 4:1-2:
"Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy,
we do not lose heart, but we have renounced the
things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness
or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation
of truth commending ourselves to every man's
conscience in the sight of God."
- 1 THESSALONIANS 2:8-10: "Having
thus a fond affection for you, we were well-pleased to
impart to you not only the gospel of God but
also our own lives, because you had become very
dear to us. For you recall, brethren, our labor and hardship,
how working night and day so as not to be a burden to
any of you, we proclaimed to you the gospel of God. You are witnesses,
and so is God, how devoutly and uprightly
and blamelessly we behaved toward you
believers;"
- 2 CORINTHIANS 6:1-4:
"And working together with Him,
we also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain...behold,
now is the acceptable time,' behold, now is 'the
day of salvation' giving no cause for
offence in anything, in order that the ministry be not
discredited, but in everything commending ourselves as
servants of God...."
- 1 JOHN 3:14; 4:18:
"We know that we have passed out of death into life,
because we love the brethren. He who
does not love abides in death....There is no fear in
love; but perfect love casts out fear, because
fear involves punishment, and the one who fears
is not perfected in love."
- 2 TIMOTHY 1:7-8:
"For God has not given us a
spirit of timidity, but of power
and love and discipline.
Therefore do not ashamed of the testimony
of our Lord...."
- ROMANS 1:16: "For I am
not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the
power of God for salvation to everyone
who believes...."
