"Stop bringing me meaningless offerings!"
Isaiah 1:13
"Why should you be beaten anymore?
Why do you persist in rebellion?
Your whole head is injured,
your whole heart is afflicted.
From the sole of your foot to the top of your head
there is no soundness -
Only wounds, welts, and open sores, not cleansed or bandaged
or soothed with oil."
Isaiah 1:5-6
"'Come now, let us reason together,'
says the LORD.
'Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.
If you are willing and obedient,
you will eat the best from the land;
but if you resist and rebel,
you will be devoured by the sword.'
For the mouth of the LORD has spoken."
Isaiah 1:18-20
"Now all has been heard;
here is the conclusion of the matter:
Fear God and keep His commandments,
for this is the whole duty of man.
For God will bring every deed into judgment,
including every hidden thing,
whether it is good or evil.:
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
"'...what is the greatest commandment?'
Jesus replied: "Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."
Matthew 22:36-37
"What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer"
-Joseph M. Scriven-
