And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. PSA_119:97 MEM. O how love I thy law! it [is] my meditation all the day. PSA_119:98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they [are] ever with me. PSA_119:99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies [are] my meditation. PSA_119:100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. PSA_119:101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. PSA_119:102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me. PSA_119:103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! [yea, sweeter] than honey to my mouth! PSA_119:104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way. PRO_27:3 A stone [is] heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath [is] heavier than them both. PRO_27:4 Wrath [is] cruel, and anger [is] outrageous; but who [is] able to stand before envy? PRO_27:5 Open rebuke [is] better than secret love. JOHJ_10:3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. JOHJ_10:4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. JOHJ_10:5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. JOHJ_10:7 Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. JOHJ_10:8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. JOHJ_10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
