GODS WILL
Romans 8:29 “For whom he
did
foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his
Son,
that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.”
1 Peter
1:16 “Because it
is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.”
Leviticus
11:44 “For I am
the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify
yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy:”
Ephesians
5:15-20
15See
then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16Redeeming
the time, because the days are evil.
17Wherefore
be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the
Lord is.
18And
be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with
the Spirit;
19Speaking
to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
20Giving
thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the
name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
1 Thessalonians
5:14-28
14Now we
exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort
the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
15See that
none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow
that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
16Rejoice
evermore.
17Pray
without ceasing.
18In every
thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ
Jesus concerning you.
19Quench not
the Spirit.
20Despise not
prophesyings.
21Prove all
things; hold fast that which is good.
22Abstain
from all appearance of evil.
23And the
very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God
your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the
coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ.
24Faithful is
he that calleth you, who also will do it.
25Brethren,
pray for us.
26Greet all
the brethren with an holy kiss.
27I charge
you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the
holy brethren.
28The grace
of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
1 Thessalonians 4:1-4
1Furthermore
then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the
Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to
please
God, so ye would abound more and more.
2For ye know
what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
3For this is
the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye
should abstain from fornication:
4That every
one of you should know how to possess his vessel in
sanctification and honour;
