Where the Real News is the Good News

Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.

A man who has friends must himself be friendly,
But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. 

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
