the eyes of him to whom we must give account. (Hebrews 4:12-13)

you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed
adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin,
gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of

for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be
thrown into hell. (Matthew 5:27-30)

your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire.

Jesus: Who being, in very nature God, did not consider equality with God
something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very
nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in
appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death -
even death on the cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name, that the name of Jesus
every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and
every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the
father. (Philippians 2:6-11)

many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away

are lukewarm - neither hot nor cold - I am about to spit you out of my
mouth. (Revelations 3:3, 15)

want to know Jesus more.
