There is only ONE GOD


John 1:18   No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father's side, he has made him known.
John 5:44   How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

John 10:30   I and the Father are one."
John 17:11  And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one.
John 17:21  that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.
1Corinthians 8:5-6 For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"
  yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.

A slave to sin or a servant in Jesus?


John 8:34  Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.

1 John 1:8   If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

Romans 6:3  Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
Romans 6:11   So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.


Romans 6:23   For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 7:4   Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God.
1 John 3:4  Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.

James 4:17   So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.
 1 John 2:1   My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

We will Reap what we Sow


Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.      Galatians 6:7-8

  He answered, "The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. Matthew 13:37

  The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. 2Corinthians_9:6

What does the Lord require?
