SINNERS
^I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety~nine righteous persons who need no repentance. (Luke 15:7)
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self~control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God ~ having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. (2 Timothy 3:1 to 5)
But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God^s holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person~such a man is an idolater~has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God^s wrath comes on those who are disobedient. Therefore do not be partners with them. (Ephesians 5:3 to 7)
A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord. (1 Corinthians 7:39)
You shall not commit adultery. (Exodus 20:14)
10 ^There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, 11 or one who casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. 12 ^For whoever does these things is detestable to the Lord; and because of these detestable things the Lord your God will drive them out before you. 13 ^You shall be blameless before the Lord your God. (Deuteronomy
18:10 to 13)
He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars ~ their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death. (Revelation 21:78)
Allow both to grow together until the harvest; and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, ^First gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn. (Matthew 13:30)
^And His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. (Matthew 3:12)
To him who overcomes, I will grant to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God. (Revelation 2:7)
