  • For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

    Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
    markec
    markec
    And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

    And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

    For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
    Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

    I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.
    Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
    markec
    markec
    Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

    For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
    markec
    markec
    And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

    And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
    Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

    Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

    Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
    markec
    markec
    Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

    Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
    Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

    Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
    markec
    markec
    For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:

    For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
    markec
    markec
    Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

    For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.

    Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
    God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

    Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
    Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

    For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

    Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
    markec
    markec
    Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

    Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

    And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
    There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

    An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.

    Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
    markec
    markec
    To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

    Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield.

    For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.

    Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
    I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

    Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
    markec
    markec
    He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
    Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;

    Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.

    But Solomon built him an house.
    markec
    markec
    Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,

    Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?

    Hath not my hand made all these things?
    And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them,

    Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.

    Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
    markec
    markec
    The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.

    Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

    And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.

    When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them.
    For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

    Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
    markec
    markec
    Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

    Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.
    Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

    John's a bit unreadable
    Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

    And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

    If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
    Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.

    And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.

    As he spake these words, many believed on him.
    But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

    God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

    The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

    Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
    There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

    The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

    He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

    That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

    He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
    markec
    markec
    He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

    But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

    Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

    And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
    markec
    markec
    John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

    And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

    For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

    No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
    And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

    But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

    And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
    markec
    markec
    And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

    And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
    And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

    Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
    markec
    markec
    For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

    And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.
    And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

    Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
    markec
    markec
    And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

    And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
    Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

    The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

    I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
    markec
    markec
    And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.

    I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
    You need a vacation.

    I know you probably think I'm trying to rile you up with my comments, markec, but I actually do think what you do isn't particularly Christian. Consider it concern for your soul.
    No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

    And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
    markec
    markec
    And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

    Hey tell us about the part where it says you shouldn't pray in the open for social clout.
